You probably don’t know who Karen Fox is!
My Daughter recently said to someone, “you probably know my mom Karen Fox as she is in the Fenton Chamber too”. They couldn’t place me, however when my daughter said “Karen THE Connector”.. they knew exactly who she was talking about…

When your product or service is mentioned does is automatically bring your
Business Name
or product to mind?
As my Friend Russ Heneberry (Website Design) says you need to fill the cubbyhole of other people’s mind for that particular service or business.. Remember you don’t want to be known as one of the BEST you want to be known as the BEST….(THE ONLY name that comes to mind because no one else can fill that cubbyhole like you)…
Example…When I say
Public Speaking Coach/Trainer Fred Miller is the ONLY person who comes to mind….
Balloon Entertainer Sammy J
CopywriterKristen McLain (Kris the Scribbler)
Branding Expert Lethia Owens
Fitness Coach Maureen Wielansky
Productivity ExpertCathy Sexton
BookeepingLori StClair
Holistic Dr/ChiropractorDr Cheryl Shea
I think you get the idea… You need to be filling someone’s cubby hole in their mind and for
them to believe you are the ONLY person that does what you do or your product is
the ONLY product that fills their needs… I can only hope someday the cubbyhole
for Social Media Coaching in your mind will only hold the name
Feel free to leave comments of those who fill your cubbyholes…
When someone says Facebook, I think of Karen the Connector! 🙂
Thanks Russ! Really appreciate that!
What’s fun is knowing social media is traveling to places I haven’t been yet. Your coaching has made it easy to understand and apply the process.
Thanks Kristen! You are such a gifted copywriter and blogger.
