I wanted to share a mastermind group I joined a few days ago, and why I decided to join.

For a while now I have been receiving quality information in the form of a weekly newsletter by Lynn Terry of Click Newz! It provides me with ideas, tips and reviews to help me succeed with my online business.

Lynn also hosts a weekly FREE webinar which you can listen to, ask questions on, and/or have your site critiqued.

After attending my first webinar I decided there and then that this was a community I could really benefit from joining and hopefully as my skill sets continue to grow be able also to contribute to.

Here's a few reasons why I joined a paid membership/brainstorm group

A Place To Ask Questions

I wanted a place I could ask questions any number of them without feeling a complete and utter idiot.

Somewhere to share information and know for sure that no one would use or take my ideas.

A Place To Get Answers

Being able to get timely answers to my questions from Group Leaders and other Elite Members.

Example
My first question I asked was answered by Lynn herself (as well as other members within the group) with helpful one on one actionable steps for me to take away and implement on my website to help improve it.

A Place Full Of Helpful Resources

Along with all the quality information I wanted a place that would share exclusive resources, I found it, group leaders and members freely share information not available to the general pubic here.

A Place To Keep Me Focused And On Task

Having a group of like minded people keeping me accountable and on task (giving me a kick in the right direction when necessary.) ;)

A safe place to Brainstorm, ask questions, get answers, share resources, what more could a girl want or ask for?

Creative Ideas + Unique Perspectives = Increased Profits!

When creating Baby Photo Cards with your software one option is to make birth announcement cards which you can post to all your family and friends.  The reasons for making your own cards or buying cards created by someone else are as follows:

a) they are a personal personalized treasure rather than a mass produced product bought from the store.

b) If you create the template yourself you can decide the number of photos to include, the layout styles, fonts etc and oftentimes when buying from someone else they will also let you make these choices.

Baby Photo Cards - Decisions

First decide what style of Baby Photo Cards you would like to create.

Things to consider when planing your template are the size you want to print out, and the number of photographs you would like displayed.  If using scrapbook papers to decorate your template remember you can re color your papers to suit the card you are designing.

Secondly decide the quantity of cards you are thinking of sending out, as this may determine whether you print them out yourself or if instead you send them to a print lab.

Make Your Own or Buy Baby Photo Cards?

Of course this will depend on whether or not you own software that lets you create templates via layers or not.  Also if you have the time to devote to designing your own cards otherwise a great option is to purchase cards that someone else has made from scratch for you.

That's the joy of someone else doing the work - you can get the personal touch of a handcrafted item without all the time and effort required to produce one of your own.

So, where can I buy Baby Photo Cards?

One option for buying handcrafted items is zazzle they provide many Baby Photo Cards designed by many different digital artists like the example above which I think is a beautiful stylish template.

Make your own or buy handcrafted it's the way to go...
