A friend has received notice that foreclosure will begin Feb. 5th. Looking for someone who may be able to help her either avoid or make it easier on her and steer her in the right direction for a smooth and easier transition.
She is currently in Puyallup and is open to moving back to Seattle if need be.
Thank you!!

Is there an email software/program where you can make mail labels from the contact list?
Are any email programs best compatible with File Maker Pro for merging contacts and making mail labels?
Right now my client has to enter data twice...once in Entourage and once in FileMaker Pro. Time consuming and painstaking. Looking for a better option.
Thank you for your input!

Chat with Women is a great radio show on 1150AM, 8am daily. They are all about supporting women, and the men who love them. They have all kinds of fun, provide lots of great information about everything, interview lots of people, etc. Once or twice a year, they host chat parties, in connection with our own, Melody of The CRAVE Company.
They are beginning an interview series on Women CEOs. On January 30th, I will be their Featured CEO!! It's like having coffee and chit chat. 30 minutes of radio air time with 2 fabulous ladies, airing to an audience of 60,000 radio and 1 million internet!! jaw drops
Pam and Rochelle welcome women CEOs to write in to info@chatwithwomen.com and introduce yourselves for interviewing. Tell them you found out here from me - they have interviewed Dan and Lara before so they know all about Biznik! I told them I'd do a post here :)
How did I land this?
The power of networking. I've talked with them before, met them in person at the NW Women's Show and recently introduced my client, Pole for the Soul, to them. That led to their invitation to me for January 30th.
Put yourself out there. Introduce people to people, keep people updated with what you are doing and you NEVER know, some day, things that knock your socks off happen!
Biznik has taught me the art of networking and provided the platform to do it best! WOOT WOOT!
SPACE Design Center in Greenwood has gallery space and we are now on the monthly Greenwood-Phinney artwalk, occurring on the 2nd Fridays.
Artists, photographers and small sculptors welcome. If you have an eco-friendly approach, even better!
We currently have Bizniker Drew Stone in our gallery and had a lovely first art walk opening this month. Even made some key contacts for business with attendees.
Cheers!

Currently, I am copying and pasting information from one event to the next for each new date of GMM but then i have to also individually select the dates, venue, etc.
Is there a way to post multiple dates at once or change only the date in creating a new event?
Lisa told me she hits backspace and just changes the date but all I ended up with was a blank event page when I did that. Maybe I misunderstood her.
HELP!
At long last, this baby has been born into it's first phase!
The EcoKind Interior Decor Connection Pages is the one-stop source for our Greater Seattle green interior decor retail shops. It's the source to go to once your hard surfaces are all designed and installed, and you are ready to make your house a home and your office, an inspirational launching pad!
This baby is always growing, as with any child, as more resources are identified, referred, and launched.
The green build community has been growing strongly in Seattle through their connection pages. It's time for the green "soft surfaces" community to make a stronger presence!
Please take a wander by. Your feedback is highly welcomed and encouraged, as well as mentions of additions to the shop listings.
It's free for everyone now. In the future, this may turn into a paid service listing for vendors.
Me mum is in Portland and needs to have the springs re-tied in her 1930s-ish era sofa pillows.
Does anyone in Portland have a trusted referral who specializes in the retro cushion structures?
Many blessings,

Some of us don't do a lot of computer document work but for those of us who have anything admin, portfolio, client, accounting, etc. related, you NEED offsite data backup. Not just the CD's you burn or your external hard drive, but an OFFSITE service.
Let me tell you why...
Because sometimes, s*** happens. Friday was just that day for me. My hard drive crashed and it crashed hard. All my portfolio images, articles, client information, personal files....all not accessible.
THANK GOD/DESS I have my external data backup service with Bill Fulton of Third Hatch. For a wee $10/month, his service AUTOMATICALLY backs up my info on a daily basis.
Friday, Bill was my business Knight in Shining Armour. He completely SAVED ME. I've been a data backup customer of his for almost a year now, with no need for the backed up files. Until Friday.
Bill took care of everything within less than 24 hours, restoring my data and everything is back and happy now in the EcoKind world.
I rest easy knowing that not only do i have a data backup system but: I DO NOTHING to make it happen except leave the computer on at that chosen time. Pay a measly $10/month for the service.
Seriously folks, you can't afford NOT to have this. If your S*** ever hits the fan with your computer, or your in-house backup gets burned up or stolen, you will be SO happy that you invested 2 lattes worth of money per month for this peace of mind.
You will be kicking yourself painfully if you don't and down the road, this happens, or worse, to you.
The Unveiling: A Night of Sustainable Art, Green Decorating and Wine Tasting!
Wednesday, Oct. 29, 2008
5-8pm
Join us as we unveil the thinkspace art and decorating project. We’ve been hard at work to accentuate the beauty of client Peter Chee’s green office suite rental space.
Artist (and Biznikian) Drew Stone of AGS Custom Interiors and myself of EcoKind Design will be talking about sustainable art and decorating, and we’ll all be tasting sustainable wine to celebrate the completion of this fine project in this fine business space!
And just because we love to have a lot of fun, we’re having a door prize drawing game!
Please, join us for this fine celebration, socializing, networking, and sustainable chit chat! Looking forward to seeing you there! RSVP here.
Has anyone noticed that we don't have one of them on here? Don't we have one of everything else, at least?
I've been looking for a recommendation to a great indie car detailer. Who's got one?!
Got to keep up shop on the "car home interiors" too!
AKA Free Promotion and Marketing for you!
Looking for product and services prize donations for the prize drawing at thinkspace sustainable art, decorating and wine tasting event upcoming October 29.
This is a great opportunity to market your services or product to the green minded community. Products should be green but its ok if your business isn't green per say - like if you are a coach or something.
Attendance is estimated at 80-100. Invites include Redmond Chamber of Commerce and many eastside businesses, as well as Seattle.
Please contact me if you want to donate for our prize giveaway!

hey green folks!
Jessie Upps and I are ready to start hosting GMM groups. We are going to have a guest appearance at some point from Lisa Bradley, who started Mastermind Mondays and has kept them going.
Waiting for the reservation to be approved and then I'll be posting. We'll start not next week, but the week of Oct. 20th.
Keep an eye, or two, open! :)

Hi!
I am currently with Wells Fargo. My checking is free. When I have savings, C and S are only free if you do an auto transfer each month.
I am reemed with business account fees each month and even though I'm a longtime credit card holder with them, in good standing, they won't drop my 20% interest rate.
Where can I go that: 1) Is low to no fee, including business accounts 2) Isn't shutting down due to the crazy financial world now 3) Has a low fixed rate credit card 4) Is small business person friendly?
I am considering BECU or another credit union type since it is locally supporting.
Thank you so much. This is a long time coming!
Hey b-nikers!
I'm about to print a new round of biz cards and playing with my new tag line.
Empower. Empassion. Enliven. Your space. Your life!
I have other ideas that include "launching pad"... Your space. Your launching pad. Your life!
Something with "so you can live your best life" is so overused.
An equation of some sort might be neat too. Simple yet effective. Any suggestions?
I do love to do love nests...but "The Love Nest Specialist" sounds kinda funny and maybe gives the wrong message. heh.
I COULD just nix the tagline from this round but I so love to distinguish myself from just any decorator.
Any helpful ideas? Got to send this to print! Thank you!
Hey everybody!
Getting ready for vacation and just want to give a heads up that I'll be out of touch for a bit before I get caught up in my leavings of town.
Have a great rest of August everyone and hey, you need to hire Ruth Hartmann to help you get your biz so you too, can take time off!
So our own Chris Haddad does art too, apparently! I just found this as I was exploring the Sculpted Green event that is happening in Bellevue and I couldn't resist the temptation to pimp, I mean, share what I found...(heehee)
http://www.bellevuewa.gov/Haddad_Stalk_8.htm
Artist's Statement: My work attempts to transform something familiar into that which is unfamiliar, to engage our memories by revealing something abstract, energized and elegant from that which we have known. The structure of my work’s evolution has been a sequence of series; this piece is part of the “Stalks” series. The “stalks” were conceived of as abstractions of figurative forms, organic shapes and primitive tools. They are scaled to the height of human proportion to engage us spatially. "Stalk #8" continues my interest in the dynamics of form that are simultaneously organic and mechanical. The tension between the organic and mechanical is not only energizing for me, but also very human.
Congrats Chris! Nice work :)
