It's been a while, hasn't it? I fell into the cliche of starting a blog, writing the first post, and ignoring it for months! I kept thinking that I should write a new post, but was too lazy to do so. This laziness is something I really have to overcome to really get this company off the ground. It bleeds over into so many other things. I am passionate about wine and sharing it with others. So why does laziness creep in and prevent me from being successful? I'm not sure, but it's time for a reboot!
I was about to delete my first post since it's a bit embarrassing that it has been over 6 months since that post. However, I'm documenting my journey in starting up this business, and that's part of it. Let it stand. I'm sure there are others that fall into the same rut, and if I can have even 1 reader relate to that, maybe it will motivate them to continue with their passion as well.
I've been refocussing my effort and becoming a lot more active in establishing relationships with wineries. Those relationships will hopefully turn into friendships. That, in turn, will be key to providing customers a personalized experience when they visit the wineries. I have become more active over social media as well - primarily on Twitter and Instagram, but also getting used to the new Swarm App (@spotmesomewine).
So hopefully you'll wish me luck with this reboot, and I'll keep you posted on a more regular basis!
