Using Tungle.me as Your Ultimate Meeting Planning and Calendar Scheduling Tool
July 3, 2011
Tungle.me is a scheduling application that syncs with your existing calendar.
- Eliminate double-bookings, time zone mishaps and the back-and-forth of finding a time to meet
- Easily schedule meetings, inside or outside your organization
- Invite others to schedule with you, without having to sign up
Inbound Scheduling
Others can visit your Tungle.me page and send you meeting invitations proposing multiple times without signing up. You pick the final time and it’s booked! You control the times shown as available and control who you share your page link with.
Outbound Scheduling
Send invitations proposing multiple times to one or many people. Tungle handles replies, automatically adjusts for different time zones, and prevents double bookings. Once booked,it’s automatically added to your calendar and all invitees receive email confirmations.
Syncs with your existing calendar:
- Microsoft Outlook (with or without exchange)
- Apple iCal and Entourage
- Google Calendar
- Lotus Notes
- BlackBerry
I love using this tool and have included the widget on my Facebook business page. I have also integrated it in my email signature and on my website. Click here to see my Tungle.me landing page.
Boost Your Personal Brand by Creating an Impressive Electronic Signature
July 13, 2010
Have you ever wanted to spice up your posts, emails, blogs and other digital content? You can get your very own free personal signature in less than a minute. Everyone who works with me knows that one of my pet peeves is email messages where the sender doesn’t have a complete business email signature with all of their contact info. You need this information at a minimum to present a professional personal brand.
You can take it one step further and add an impressive electronic signature to your email, posts and other digital contact by using My Live Signature. I absolutely love my email signature and I have included it below so you could see it.
Make it happen: Create your own personal signature. It is free, simple & easy!
Need a Social Media Diet? Try Facebook Lite
September 29, 2009
If you have ever felt overwhelmed by the many features of Facebook, you just might want to go on a diet and try Facebook Lite which was recently released to users in the U.S. and Canada. This new version is a light weight, stripped down version of Facebook. The jury is still out on whether this new version is a winner but some users say they love the cleaner, simpler interface while others express disappointment with missing key features they have grown to love. At any rate, we can be sure these changes will impact businesses who use Facebook to reach new fans and customers. The key to surviving this shift is to optimize your Facebook Fan Page so it doesn’t get lost in the shuffle.
Facebook Lite keeps things very simple by only allowing for status updates, uploading and viewing of photo and videos, birthdays and wall messages. Even the sidebar has undergone a makeover. Ads are much less noticeable and interestingly the “People You May Know” feature remains.
Key differences between Facebook and Facebook Lite:
- Can’t Update Your Status - With Facebook Lite, you can view your pages and profile but you are not able to make updates.
- The Layout is Simple & Clean - You will notice that many of the items in the sidebar and header are stripped down to bare bone information. There are not as many distractions in Facebook Lite.
- Share and Like - Users still have the ability to ‘comment’ on posted items as well as ‘like’ posted items. Unfortunately users are not able to ’share’ posted items from their friend’s profile or their fanned pages.
- No Application Support - Users who use applications such as Mafia Wars and Farmville to enrich their Facebook experience or engage with their friends will find Facebook Lite a bit disappointing. Though there is no support for applications at this time, this does mean users don’t have to worry about viruses that are commonly spread via applications.
- No Chat - When logged into Facebook Lite, users don’t have access to the chat feature. Facebook developer are still debating whether to add this feature so only time will tell if it makes it into a future version.
I have found the new Lite version of Facebook to be a bit buggy in that sometimes I can’t get a profile to display. I guess this is to be expected when the app is still in beta. Overall the interface is simple to use and makes it easy to make quick posts and quickly catch up on your friend’s activities. Try Facebook Lite and let me know what you think by posting a comment below.
Is Your Personal Brand Worth $25
August 10, 2008
There is no way around it. You must be intentional about the brand you are building if you want to attract clients and make money in your business. Your personal brand must be clear and powerful or you will fade into the dark depths of your prospect’s mind.
What often surprises me is the fact that I meet so many individuals who say they are in business but haven’t even begun to think about their personal brand or their brand identity.
I hate to tell you this but if you don’t have a logo for your business or the work you perform, you aren’t in business you have an expensive hobby. I say this because the people you present yourself to will expect some type of brand image with which they can associate your personal brand.
I know, I know, you think creating a logo is very expensive and you are building your business by your bootstraps. The first quotes I received when I started looking to create my personal brand identity were between $750 to $1,250. Well thanks to my friend Karen Hoffman you don’t have to spend a fortune. In fact, I was able to create my brand identity for less than the cost of a large pizza and I did it with the help of GotLogos.com. That’s right for only $25 you can have a custom logo created and what is even more exciting is that you get to provide as much creative input as you want before they start working on your project.
Here is the first logo GotLogos.com created for me:
Here are some of their other logo samples:
So now the question is, what are you waiting on? With their short 3-5 day turnaround, there is no longer an excuse for not a personal brand identity.
Cost: LOW ($25)
