Famous Loren Weisman Quotes

“An effective content strategy has to mix your authenticity, your story & your authority mixed with the shares of other peoples content. If you're only sharing other peoples stories, authority, authenticity & brands, how does that make any new or old visitors want to connect with yours? And, only reposting without sharing why you chose to share it & what your thoughts are on that content creates zero connection to you and for you.”

“I see this as permissive plagiarism. A license has been bought, but how does this create authentic authority and a foundation of integrity to trust this new author if the truth was revealed? Would these authors be ok with openly stating that they bought eighty to ninety percent of a book and just added a few pieces to it? I seriously doubt it. So where is the honor and transparency there?”

“We have noticed a rise in companies that allow you to purchase what we term as a prefabricated book. These books fall into one of the genres of success or coaching toward business, health, wealth, and sales to name just a few. You simply buy a system that you download which allows you to move some chapters around, change a few words, headers, add a few stories of your own, create a book cover, publish as an eBook or print on demand, and wham, you’re an author.”

“The quid pro quo referral game in different networking circles can be a blessing or a curse. The dangers sit in those so hungry for business for themselves, that they will refer anyone, regardless of reputation, validity and ability as long as it can get them business in return. Watch for this unfortunate and common style. Consider vetting both the person that is being referred to you as much as you may want to vet the referrer to see if this seems to be occurring a lot.”

“If you can't say it to their face, don't say it behind their backs. Speaking "in confidence" has lost a great deal of "confidence" in that being true these days. With the ears and recording devices out there that are looking for you to... slip something out for them to use against you... share something you shouldn't... Say something that could be taken the wrong way... Or some one looking to get a sound byte that could bite you in the rear... It is good to keep those elements in mind as you are talking, texting, emailing, posting or sharing anything and everything. Think of it as preventative maintenance and crisis management to keep a crisis from happening.”

“If your first reaction is to feel insulted & belittled by constructive criticism or the word no... you may not have the best foundation in place for starting or maintaining your own business. Constructive criticism can help more than you might realize... if you can put your ego aside and take the help from those that have the authority and knowledge to assist you.”
