Thoughts on a Simplero Rebrand

Screenshot (222)

If you’ve been to simplero.com recently, you’ve probably noticed that it looks quite different.

To say that we’re all really excited about the new website would be an understatement. Let me explain why.

Not only is simplero.com now a proper Simplero website, built using the same website builder that most of you use and love. That means that anyone on our team can easily edit any page on the site, which will make it much easier to keep the site up to date as we add new features and experiment w…

Sherrie's got a superpower

 
Employee Spotlight! (4).png
 
 
Sherrie will surprise you.  She sits there, steadily observing and thinking and not saying much.  But when you give her a chance, a treasure trove of smart, inspired and caring thoughts will spill forth. 
 
Like Deanna, Sherrie worked as a VA until she joined Simplero's Support Team. Her gift is in interaction with people and she now works 'live' with account holders, either in a group setting (our weekly Empower Hour Q&A calls) or one-on-one in Concierge.  
 
We joked on our retr…

The busy mother of 4 who rose from working as a Simplero VA to becoming the team’s beloved Chief of Staff

Employee Spotlight! (3).png

 

Meet Deanna, who started out as a Virtual Assistant in a company that offers help to Simplero users but soon moved on to work in the Simplero support team.

And it didn’t stop there, because her very deep knowledge of Simplero combined with good humor, wonderful personal and organizational skills and a strong work ethic soon made it clear that she was needed elsewhere in the organization...

Earlier this year, she became the Chief of Staff. A title that is pretty hard to wear, one would say…

Pulling the Weeds

So, I sprained my ankle recently - for the second time in a week - and I decided the Universe was telling me that I needed to slow down. I'm trying to do too much and I need to reset. 

I do this to myself sometimes.  Somehow I've got this idea that being busy means you are valuable, needed, important. 

What a load of BS.  

shutterstock_638929270.jpgI got a healthy dose of perspective today while my wife and I cleaned out the garden.  We ripped out weeds, pruned bushes, and re-potted plants to bring them inside for the…

Eight Things I Learned in Denmark

Members of the Simplero staff went on retreat to a particularly beautiful corner of Denmark recently.  We gathered there to work on the business of Simplero rather than in the business of Simplero. 

Or rather, in addition to, because we tried hard not to let the day to day work go unfulfilled.

For any business to succeed, its members must spend time on strategy and big-picture-thinking work.  We must figure out where we are going, how we are going to get there and what systems and structures w…

Being Self-Disciplined about Self-Care

Being an entrepreneur means being self-motivated and self-disciplined. 

There’s no boss standing over you requiring a specific action by a certain date. There may not even be a demanding group of customers expecting that you produce a program or product on schedule.

And yet we nonetheless create powerful work that can transform people’s lives. 

shutterstock_1176901459.jpgWe must be a pretty self-motivated bunch!

That comes naturally to me and I imagine the same is true for many of you.

The flipside is that I tend not…

Help! My Sales Page Does Not Covert!

Have you set up the perfect product or service and not a single person buys your product? 

shutterstock_367533605.jpgYour first thought might be “There is something wrong with my sales page” especially if you can see that a lot of people have looked at your sales page, but still no one is buying.

You might be right. Maybe your sales page simply isn’t good enough. But the truth is, there can be 100 other things that affect your sales. Even if your sales page is perfect, you can end up with no sales.

I vote that we chan…

What We Are Reading

Simplero's culture strongly supports staff development and personal growth. 

We are a group of people who read, watch, explore and discuss.  Whether it's something intellectual, something funny, something challenging or something affirming, we love to share what we encounter.  In fact, we sometimes give each other assignments ("read this, let's talk about it") when we come across something really good. 

So it occurred to us to share with you as well.  We're going to make this a regular thing, pr…

How to Ask for Help

shutterstock_1159110763.jpgAsking for help is an important skill to master.  We all need to ask for help sometimes, in both our personal lives and our work lives.

Asking for help can move us forward when we're stuck.  It helps us feel that we're not alone, that we have each others' back, and it feels great to support a friend, partner, stranger, or team member.

However, if we bring the wrong energy to asking for help, it can achieve the exact opposite: We end up feeling hurt and alone, we don't get the help we need, and the…
