I can walk! So let’s buckle down!

I got my leg brace off today. I need physical therapy so I can’t quite work yet, but I was encouraged to get a bit active and strengthen my muscles. I’m sort of re-learning how to awkwardly step about but I’m able to clean my house today so that’s awesome! Expect a lot of exclamation marks!

When that’s done I am going to finish up my outline and start researching for the Ebook I’m working on.

More changes: We are going back to the name Kreadiv Media Magazine. I’ve got wayy too much business bottled up to waste time filling your heads with drama. So accordingly, I will be keeping a diary for those things, and we’re going to start buckling down in here.

Maybe it’s because it’s the first critique I’ve received in a while or because I just want to make the customer happy, genuinely, and feel welcome on our site, I feel like I need to re-evaluate some strategies I’ve been using currently.  So the website will be undergoing changes and so will we. As much as I enjoyed designing it, your needs are my primary concern, and they will be met.

I’ve also been trying to work on a decent schedule so you guys know what to expect! So anyhow, I have some ideas that you may see implemented in the future.  Feel free to tell me what your favorites are, Or tell us something you’d like to see!

New Post Schedule (If personal and business are kept together):

Monday- Business and Finance: We’ll go over a tip or trend from the business aspect of things!

Tuesday-Social Media: Stay up to date with these tricks, get down to the business of getting personal.

Wednesday- Our Current work at Kreadiv Media: Follow our progress on projects!

Thursday- Blogging: Some cool prompt, some writing advice, and maybe some comments on monetizing?

Friday Free Space: I may post an article about anything, reblog someone, share something new, you never know! 

The only thing about keeping a schedule is that my life gets a little bit crazy, and I usually take a few days off to keep my imagination active, so I’d have to write posts in advance, the only problem there is getting too excited to queue it! lol! Let’s see how this works out 😉 Doing things in advance is better to be prepared anyhow, and I’m glad that I’m learning and adjusting and processing along with you all.

To Our Readers: What do you want from our blog the most?

Oh My gosh! She Changed the Name of her Blog and the Whole World feels Different Now!

Hello Everyone.

After two days of sitting in my room and pondering, I’ve decided to make some changes around here.

Kreadiv Media and Me

Some logos are just the business name, with an interesting typography.

I’ve been posting for a while now and just realized I haven’t properly introduced my COMPANY, which is my pride and joy and the whole reason I started blogging in the first place.

Yes, I enjoy getting personal, because I find textbook “professional” blogs a little hard to follow, with their stale advice, however good it may be. Besides, we’re all about embracing our humanity, which is flawed and raw and passionate for doing what we love. And to be honest, if I didn’t have that passion or that perspective, I wouldn’t have a company at all.

4 Tips to Gamify Your Website

I’m not one to re-blog, but this article was fascinating. Interactivity adds value and surprise to your website, which is why I love drop down menus and color changing hover. I’ve seen a few websites where the mouse becomes something fun, or ads that tempt you with mini-games, but I never stopped to consider the amount of engagement those features offer.

I’ll definitely have to add some new things to www.kreadivmedia.com

Besides the price, the reliability of my internet service is the worst. Therefore, I’m quickly adding these thoughts from my phone.

Branding your Business with Design

I’ve talked a little bit about professional image and branding before, but there are a few key points I’d like to make today.

Branding can be challenging if you think too much about it. That’s right, choosing something that comes naturally is more important than inventing a new brand and a new personality, because it will be harder to maintain an image that isn’t naturally yours.

The Kreadiv Media Logo

Branding is the process of marketing your unique, individual personality to benefit your career. Got a passion? Channel it. Got a nickname? Embrace it. Choose a name for yourself and your company, and cross-check it on google. You don’t want to be the 8,000,000th person on google with your particular name, or you’ll likely never be found.

Logos, slogans, web design, and social media are all vital elements of developing a brand identity, but we’re going to focus on the design element today.

The Smell of Syrup

Don’t judge me, but it seems my blog may have taken a turn towards the more personal side of things as of late. It’s okay, doesn’t make me less of a professional. Just more of a person.

That being said, I have the worst craving for breakfast food right now. Maybe it’s because I miss my waitressing position at the Diner, but mostly it’s because I saw a recipe today for pancake-covered bacon, and yesterday for a breakfast burger with tater tot waffle bread. What I’d really kill for is some chicken and waffles.
