A question for Beth (See Dirt run)

Beth

I've read a lot of your post and visited your web site. You seem to know business. You have a lot of good ideas.

I was curious of what background you have in business, marketing, advertising, etc?

Hi Tim,

My college major was Marketing. I loved it.

I have spent the last 14 years in the high tech software (and hardware) arena in sales and in management, and my sales method is consultative. I sold both to large commercial accounts and also to the Government (Federal, State and Local).

I have done some Marketing consulting, built web sites (that high tech software experience paid off), and given guest lectures at local community colleges a couple times on the topics of Change Management and Motivation.

Since 8th grade I have wanted to be a writer. (Marketing seemed a more grounded choice than trying to be a novelist) So... it's pretty natural for me to want to combine the love I have for our business and the love I have for writing. In high school I was the advertising editor for the school newspaper. That was a blast. It's one reason I enjoyed BlastMaster so much.

Hope that helps answer your questions...

I knew you must have a business/sales background. I too, have a Accounting & Marketing degree and have always love business in general. This forum is great - a lot of good ideals from the members on this board. I look forward to reading your post in the future.
