This week has been a very good learning experience for me and I want to share with you my lessons learned…

In fact, I might even start a category on my blog just for lessons learned.

Week 1: Embrace Technology

Those of you who follow me in the social media world know I like to comment on your posts a bit more than make my own. I am not profound, poetic or elloquent. I like to listen, observe and make sure things make sense. Math and Science, NOT English and grammer.

So, although I am not great with copy, I love the way the world is going with the mobile, social and internet marketing. For the past handful of years I have been intrigued with how big the advancements are and yet how small the world has become. For example I have been following some pretty cool poeple on Twitter and they live all over the world. My point is, I am right here in little Salt Lake City, UT and I am learning things from people in Seattle, California, Texas, Massachusetts, London, Australia and so on…

Where am I trying to go with this? That the people and the technology are all over the place with new apps, new plugins, new upgrades. I can’t keep track of every kind of cool software. However, I can continue to learn about the areas I have interest in like mentioned before. It fires me up to learn about a new mobile technology that might help business grow, I love to try out a new internet marketing tatic or see a seo strategy work for the first time, and when people are brought together because of technology business can get done quicker.

Embrace the technology! I don’t care how old you are… 15, 35, or 65. The technology is helping us all live a better life. I am going to contine to learn about the new ways in marketing whether it is online, offline, mobile, social, local, I will always try and soak it in. There is alway going to be someone who knows more about a subject than I do and if I can learn a bit from them, the better off I will be.

So, Lesson of the Week: Embrace Technology

Adapt your business to the technological changes, because if you don’t, you might not be in business for too much longer. The future of business is “Change” and if you can do it, you will survive, no matter what industry you are in. If your company needs help with its technology or marketing plan I suggest you find someone that you trust who is up to speed with the new digital media and has a good feel for your market.
