It’s Official: Google Adwords Qualified – Individual Certification
It’s finally official. All this time I have been using Google AdWords and training others to use it, I never actually took the tests for certification. This weekend I finally did, and guess what. It was a piece of cake! In the grand scheme of things, it doesn’t change my ability, but its one tick off the professional bucket list. And plus, now Google officially agrees that I’m a qualified Paid Search professional. Haha!
Wedding Site Preview
Nicole and I are putting together a site for our wedding. I’ve been working on it today. Definitely looking forward to launching it soon.
Here’s a sneak peek. 😉
Do You Practice “Naked Consulting”?
In the conversation today we discussed learning from our clients and really digging in and understanding their business. Many agencies forget this and think that they have to portray to their clients a sense of having all the answers. The problem is since they have all the answers, they often don’t take the time to really understand their clients business and end up pushing their preconceived ideas on clients. This often is not the best fit.
The bottom line is clients are people and people really want honesty and humility. The book outlines three fears that hold people back from gaining and retaining better clients.
- Fear of Losing the Business
- Fear of Being Embarrassed
- Fear of Being Inferior
Getting Naked is a great read and if you are in the consulting business or any other business for that matter. You should definitely check it out.
