August Month-End Shout Out

This post is a couple of days late, and I apologize for that - but there was so much going on with back to school and amazing deals, that I thought it better to wait until you all could partake in them!

First off, ENJO…

And this is a BIGGIE!
The award winning floor system (as judged by Women's Weekly Magazine Australia)

is ON SALE THIS MONTH!

Need more incentive than a sale?

• Fact 1: According to US Environmental Protection Agency, your home is 2-5 times more polluted than outdoors. Major contributions come from chemical products (sprays and detergents) that vaporize into the air in our home. We breathe these into our lungs and it travels directly into our blood! (At a low dosage, but on a daily basis.)
• Fact 2: Many substances can penetrate our skin and enter into our blood. and ultimately, our organs. TEST THIS OUT, rub a garlic clove on the bottom of your foot and you can taste it in your mouth 15 minutes later! Of course, not everything gets past your skin, but many chemicals have this potential. Chemicals you leave on your floor, especially those left by chemical floor cleaners, enter our blood streams while we are walking around barefoot.  This holds true of your pets feet as well.
• Fact 3: Manufacturers may or may not reveal this, but most conventional floor detergents contain ingredients such as MEA (Monoethanolamine) and/or DEA (Diethanolamine) which are known to induce asthma, are skin/eye irritants and may form a carcinogenic compound when in contact with Nitrite.

ENJO cleans 6 times better than any chemical, using JUST WATER.

Contact Lynn today to order your floor system - shipping is available anywhere in North America.

Better still, join Lynn's Team and introduce your friends, neighbours and family to chemical free living!

More MONSTROUS news - this time from 100T2D sponsor 

CURIOSITY BOX:

LONDON, ON (Aug. 21, 2014) — Curiosity Box—a four-month old company founded by a London-area mom—has scored two major accomplishments in one week: a first-of-its-kind partnership with global brand KINDER® SURPRISE® and a PTPA Winner’s Seal of Approval, which is a parent-tested, parent-approved review-based award.

Cassie Krygsman is the local entrepreneur who founded one of Canada’s only companies that assembles and ships children’s craft and activity boxes, which include single, subscription and party boxes. The London mother of two boys— one infant and one toddler—wanted to find ways to connect more creatively with her own children and discovered that no one in Canada made a product like those she creates at Curiosity Box.
Krygsman offers craft boxes shipped individually or by subscription. There are currently 11 themes available for single boxes while subscription box themes change monthly. Themed boxes are added periodically, including the new KINDER® SmileBox by Curiosity Box.
“Partnering with KINDER® SURPRISE® to create a limited-edition KINDER® SmileBox is a significant achievement for Curiosity Box,” says Krygsman. “We’re so excited to partner with such a well-loved company that aligns so well with our fundamental beliefs. Both of our brands are designed to inspire interaction and play between parents and kids.”

KINDER® Canada wants everyone to Unwrap a Smile and with tools like the new Smile Booth Facebook app, its mission “to encourage and celebrate playtime every day between parent and child” is easier than ever. This mantra is equally important to Curiosity Box, whose mission is “to bring parents and children together in the spirit of fun and creativity.” Canadians have the opportunity to purchase a KINDER® SmileBox at www.curiositybox.ca and share their experiences through a national social media campaign (#kindersmiles) on social media channels like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
Krygsman also feels that recognition by PTPA Media will move her business forward. “Parents look for that sort of endorsement and for such a young business, this level of parent-endorsement really reinforces that we’re headed in the right direction.”
About KINDER® Canada
In celebration of KINDER® Canada’s 40th anniversary, KINDER® SURPRISE® has launched an integrated marketing campaign called Unwrap a Smile. The campaign combines experiential, PR, social and digital elements to unwrap Canadians’ smiles through fun photo and video experiences across the country.

Business Clarity with Kathleen 

Ever wonder why some people get ahead in business while you struggle?

Do you wish you could attract more customers AND have more personal time?

It’s hard to know what to do or how to do it. As a solo-preneur sometimes it’s a long lonely road.  

A little clarity and some tools to shortcut the journey can be life changing.  You don’t have to do it alone, coaching is the fastest way to learn systems and gain proven tools to help your business grow and run smoothly. As a business coach with 40 years of Entrepreneurial experience my mission in life and business, is helping your business grow and your life easier.

I posted about my experience working with Kathleen Mundy of Making Your Own Money, I learned that if you…

• Have an endless to-do list you need to cut in half

• Lack prioritization and focus and need to learn what’s important to your life and/or business

• Try to do too much and need to learn how to delegate

• Procrastinate and need to overcome avoidance behaviour

Then you need to check out the FROG BUFFET!
It has shaved hours of needless to-do’s off of my list and I am learning to refocus what is really important and to not make other things more important than they really should be.
I spent 30 minutes that now saves me 2-3 hours a day – talk about ROT (return on time!)
Don’t miss this – it’s completely free with no-obligations!

The best part - the clothing is trendy, timeless and COMFORTABLE!
