Word of mouth advertising is certainly the most affordable way to advertise, and I love how it builds artists and business women up from accountability between businesses and customers.

So I was brainstorming about how else I could do some word of mouth advertising and I decided I needed to advertise for my fellow artists friends who have successful business’ and that I am a big fan of.  So I am creating a mini-brochure that will feature my favorite artists called “These are a few of My Favorite Things.”  People are always asking me where I got my jewelry or home goods, or art and I thought, I better give back what they have given me! 

So from now on, when you order a purse you will receive a mini-brochure complete with about 7 of my favorite artists/business’ and their products and website listed.    I love seeing people grow in what they love doing and want to do whatever I can to see their dreams come true!  Enjoy

Hello all! I do radio commercials for a local station in Sioux Falls SD KELO AM 1320 and here is my latest version of a minute of inspiration for all. Enjoy

This is Rebekah Scott with Rebekah Scott Designs. I sew and design purses, and accessories. I’ve been in business 5 years and love what I do. Have you made goals lately about that you can do every day, every week , every month, and every year? It might sound overwhelming, but just breaking it down is pretty simple. Here is an example of what I do.

Every day, I do something for the business, it may just be an email, phone call, or google search, but I do something everyday towards my business or a new idea I have in mind. This is especially helpful if you are starting a business.

 Every week I write a thank you card on Thursday mornings. I have a lot to be thankful for and I take the time to do it every week.

Every month I plan one hour of visualizing. I set myself apart and just envision what I want to see happen and how to make it happen. That hour is so refreshing and energizing.

Every year I follow up with key players in my business individually to make sure their needs are met and we are growing together. These simple steps are easy to follow and make a big difference in growing myself and business. Ask yourself, what goals can I set?

 So go ahead, start dreaming big. Visit my website at shoprsd.com to find out more.

Okay, so officially I am overdue and this is has been a learning experience!  We went early on our due date with our first born Gus and so I figured of course we will go in early, but I was wrong, which brings me to think of what I have learned through this.  I have little notes all over my sewing space and house encouraging me or uplifting me all the time.  So I had sticky notes hanging up with the word LABOR on them. And I would just think “labor” to keep it in the my mind and speaking, thinking and visualizing it. Well that hasn’t been working, so I was getting really down about things because I love working and LOVE what I do and I didn’t plan it right for time off with baby and I wanted to enjoy baby already, and I have been at a stand still.  So just as I was praying and asking for forgiveness for trying to do things my way all the time, I heard a sermon at church called “Surrender.”  I knew God was speaking to me and telling me, “Bekah, please surrender this to Me.”  And so yes, I changed my sticky notes to say “Surrender”.    So right now, I really have a peace so to say about this baby and His Divine timing.  God-I surrender all.

I also did some brainstorming on things for the business in the new year and also for this summer and my family.  As far as business we are definitely introducing a key loop to hook your keys on.  Which I find pretty exciting, one more thing to keep us organized! 

And then I was thinking about my family life and how to communicate love more this year.  I am going to write a thank you card to each one of my children on Thursday mornings.  I already write one thank you card to someone I am thinking about on Thursday mornings, so I am adding my family so that someday Gus and this baby can read them.   I have so much to be thankful for and setting a day and time each week allows me to remember that and praise God for that. 

So I encourage you to set a day and time and be thankful for your loved ones too, it really satisfies the soul and feels so good! 

So until next time, I surrender!
