Facebook For Business: Fan Pages

Q. "Why do I have to set up a PAGE for my BUSINESS? I want to just set up a new profile, OK?"

A.  Aside from violating the facebook terms of service, a personal profile for a business puts a 'kink' in your social media pipeline. Let me explain...

Human = Personal Profile
Business = Fan "Like" Page 

Facebook was created for real human beings to connect with other human beings. This simple model is what makes facebook so wonderful.  It is simple, easy, and it helps us to connect with others that we might not connect with otherwise.

Setting your Vanity URL on Facebook

You've made the page, You've told your friends and family to "like" the page, and now you are ready to TELL people your url. Unfortunately facebook urls are not very attractive, with a long list of numbers, symbols, and letters. How can you get a snazzy url, like: 


Micklynn Creative: I like folders and office supplies.

But You Have to Draw a Line Somewhere.

I'm on the cusp of three years at my current job. I'm a creative. I have  organizational tendencies, but am not anal about it. (This introductory  sentence is pretty weird, huh?) What I'm saying it that I like folders  and office supplies. I like to use them to keep myself on track and to  make me feel good about myself.

I have a new office at work, and it is much more spacious. I feel really excited and motivated to start fresh and new. My biggest task with the move is weeding out the drawers of files that have accumulated over the 5 years that this position has been in existence. I  am not sure who, where, or why some of these documents require a folder,  but I'm also afraid of tossing something I will regret. In the past, I figure it is easier to push them to the back of the drawer, than to decide if they are worth it. However, with the excitement of the new space. I'm going to tackle this project!

Michael Day Benefit

Raising Money For The Fight Against Muscular Dystrophy

7th Annual Benefit Poster by Micklynn Designs
I am happy to work with this amazing family. Please read this article and let me know if you'd like more information on how you can help.


Hey All,
Hope this email finds all of you well in 2010! Our Michael Day Benefit is in full swing, so you know what that means…….ENCHILADAS J

I know that many of these fundraisers have gone around Wellington since last year, but this one is different than the others. Tudy has vowed to donate ALL proceeds made with this fundraiser entirely to our event. So, your money you spend on this wonderful food will be donated entirely to our cause!!

For those of you that need some background information: Michael Day was my brother and was afflicted with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. He lost his battle with his disease in 2003 at the age of 21 and since then, we have held this benefit in his memory. To make the story even more personal, in 2005 we found out that my 7 year old son Ethan also has this same devastating disease. What started out as an event in memory of Michael, has turned into our HOPE for Ethan. We appreciate the support you all have given us over these last years!!

Adding Pages to Blogger

Is it ironic that I am blogging about how to blog? I'm more of a babbler than a blogger anyhow. Nonetheless- I've had a request to give information on how to create multiple pages in the blog. Here is goes-

Hocus Pocus Focus

I have several things I'm passionate about, and I am pretty much scatterbrained most of the time. I'm working to focus on each area more and help to develop them.

So far I have segmented out my dance passion and focused on opening a Michelle's Encore Dance Studio. All is going great. I'm much more effecient with my time concerning dance.

Now it is time to focus on my design work. I want to get more freelance business, but to do that I need to organize my portfolio. I will be adding more over the weekend and as I find the best way to showcase old, printed pieces.


Just wanted to share my plan with everyone to hold myself accountable for organizing my life. Technology is great! Without the use of the internet, I would continue to have stacks of "things" just incase in my home office.

Next on my list: Brush up on my photography and learn to create websites.
