Geez. Is it just me, or have a lot of the people you’ve communicated with lately been grumpy and on edge?

From potential customers and business owners to fellow PR experts and even a massage therapist, I’ve been getting a lot of “tude” lately. 

I know times are tough, but things are not going to get better if you project negatitivity. I don’t know about you, but there’s no way I’m going to work with people who have bad attitudes if it’s not necessary.

And it’s sad because some of these folks would have received some free publicity in my upcoming book. Others would have earned my trust as a new customer.

With this in mind, it is probably a good time to review how your employees are acting and check to see if your own personal issues are showing up in your work communications. After all, a simple remark can cost you sales and customer loyalty.

And it can be well worth it to improve customer relations. Just look at www.printingforless.com, www.gotobilling.com and www.athleta.com. They put great emphasis on making customers happy, and their strong  testimonials build valuable, word-of-mouth buzz that simply can’t be purchased.

So is it just me, or are you hearing a lot of negativity too? Please let me know below. Or if you just have an SEO copywriting or PR questions, send it my way. I’m glad to help!

I just finished interviewing Kim Kiyosaki, author of “Rich Woman” and a successful investor. I’ll let you know when the interview will be published, but I will tell you that there is one important item that she stressed: Listen to your intuition.

And wouldn’t you know it? Right before the interview, I didn’t listen to a screaming voice inside my head. Shortly after making a choice, I realized that I made the wrong decision.

This opportunity looked like a great money-maker, but it turned out to be a stressful headache instead. But the good news is that I was able to learn from my mistake.

The lesson? Always pay attention to your inner voice.

I don’t know about you, but my instincts tend to lead me in the right direction…every time. From now on, if faced with a hard decision, I will take a moment, go to a quiet place and listen to what my brain and body are trying to tell me.

How about you? Do you listen to your inner voice? If not, give it a try. I’m sure there is a good message in there waiting to get out!
