CONTEST WINNER: Social Media

July 21, 2010

The contest we posted to find out about the best thing you've found via social media brought some wonderfully inspiring answers! The most common answer has been friendships - old and new.

Two of our favorite answers were the confidence Nicole found and the birth mother Jen was able to connect with. We weren't able to decide on the best between the two so we had a chat with Annie of Small Act and let her make the final decision. It was tough... but the winner is...

Both of them!!! Congrats to Nicole (@nicoleindc) & Jenn (@dateabledc) for your incredible entries!

Small Act thinks "you can't top finding your birth mother" but Nicole's was so well articulated. They will both receive a 1-year free subscription to Thrive!

Thank you to all who entered our contest. We appreciate you sharing your stories. All entrants from the contest will receive 2 months free trial of Small Act's social media software, Thrive.

Sisarina on CNN: Creating a Successful Work - Life Balance

April 7, 2010

On Thursday, April 1 Sisarina was interviewed by CNN’s Sandra Endo, a national correspondent based in Washington, D.C. Interested in learning more about how small businesses are surviving and thriving in the current economic climate, the women of Sisarina shared advice for balancing work, life and technology in our busy lives.

The segment is scheduled to air soon, but the Sisarina ladies couldn’t wait to share our insights. In a tweet after the interview, Sandra Endo highlighted our support for “tech free” days.

At Sisarina, we love technology and the convenience that social media platforms lend to our marketing efforts, yet we also love disconnecting and having a quiet moment. Perhaps just as important as being able to disconnect, is learning how to “uncondition” yourself to the sounds of text messages, incoming mail alerts and the other numerous sounds our gadgets make.

Additionally, Sisarina is very supportive of what we do outside the office. We have families, significant others and large (and small) dogs that require our attention. When life gets in the way of work, Sisarina supports us so that we can live in the moment and not have to feel torn between our loyalties to work and family.

As soon as the piece airs, we'll be sure to give you a full recap.
