Tomorrow's Tips from the Grant Goddess BlogTalkRadio show will focus on "Getting Started with Mini-Grants." If you have been thinking about getting started with grant writing, mini-grants are a great way to get your feet wet and start to learn the trade. Even if you don't plan on doing much grant writing in the future, but your organization needs some grant funds now, this show can help you.
We'll be talking about the basics you need to know about mini-grants, how to find mini-grant opportunities, and some tips for being successful writing mini-grants.
The show will air at 3:00 p.m. (Pacific time) tomorrow, October 31st. You can access the show at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/Veronica-Robbins.

A Quick Way to Make Your Business Card Memorable
There are many ways to supercharge the marketing power of your business cards; however, there is one thing you can start doing right now that definitely make your cards more memorable and dramatically increase the likelihood that the person receiving your card will remember you. . .
As you hand your card to someone, grab a pen and write a brief personal note on the card (front is best, back is OK). It can be related to your services or simply a call to action.
Here are some examples of mini-note calls to action:
"Call me!"
"Loved your great idea."
"Let's talk more."
"Thanks for the tips."
Then, be sure to sign your first name. Seeing your name in your own handwriting sends the message to the person later that you are a friend and someone they want to call.

Free & Cheap Marketing Tools for Your Small Business
Yesterday's BlogTalkRadio show on Free & Cheap Marketing Ideas for Your Small Business was a huge success! Not only did we have more live listeners than I had hoped for, but the archived version has been accessed quite a bit, too. I have also received some great questions by email from folks since the broadcast. Thanks!
