Dear ,

China ROCKED! From landing in Guangzhou to the baby panda on my lap at the Panda zoo, from presenting in Shenzhen and Chengdu to meeting the top Chinese interior designer, I was treated to 5 star service and made a celebrity! If you want more, be sure to check out my personal blog at www.mylifeadventures.com. I'll be putting more pics and stories up over the next few days.

What does it mean to be a celebrity? Well, I knew from watching my Mom but it is different when it is you. I was on 24/7, always keenly aware that at any given moment I was being photographed or would be asked my expert opinion. The funniest was whenever we wrapped an event there would be the most astounding flurry of flash bulbs and an endless stream of folks wanting their picture taken with me. My name along with that of Avaliving was front and center in all marketing from the bags and banners to the video prelude to each presentation. They really know their marketing! Hoping to get a tape of the Chinese talk show we did and share it on my blog, www.mylifeadventures.com.

Have I convinced you yet? I got my amazing China adventure because I am prolific in my writing, consistent in my presence, and regularly communicate in a positive, authentic, and value content manner on the social networks. I do want to have you join me there. It is an amazing place to connect for present business, future opportunities, and as a virtual water cooler. The China trip cost me a total of $300 - that is my parking at the airport, my pet sitter, and some gifts for friends at home. It was first class every step of the way and you all know I'm a total Travel Snob! Opportunity of a lifetime and a new view of the Land of the Giant Pandas.

Prospering by Design, Globally!

3 Easy and Fast Ways to Repurpose Your Content

Whether you are writing articles, blogging or sending tips you are creating content. Putting it into an article format is the simplest way to generate effective content for repurposing. An article is easy with a minimum of 250 words and usually three paragraphs or more, it is a concise way to share real content. The best part is that when you get into the habit of article writing you can then repurpose your content quickly and simply.

Each week I write two articles for my ezine, one on business building including marketing strategies and public relations and the other on social media. Both of these are considered stand alone content and highly repurposable. The first avenue is they become blog posts. Since I'm using Wordpress we have it set up so that each entry provides a unique URL and that enables me to flow the very same posts through Aweber automatically into Twitter. My blog is also tied to my Facebook profile and my LinkedIn profile so that fresh content will appear there regularly.

Twitterrific Tools

So how did I manage to stay connected while in China? With a time change of over 12 hours and having crossed the international dateline, it wasn't going to be simple to stay in touch on my usual schedule. Besides the organizer had us on a go-go agenda that didn't leave a lot of time for my networking routine. Before I took off, I explored some new Twitter applications and got great results!
