Activating Your Universal Marketing Team for SEO By Michelle Renee Johnson, CEC, PCC • info@expandingjoycoaching.com


SEBASTOPOL, CA. ~ Janet had committed to building her business in a very different way. Though she had a back- ground in marketing, the stan- dard lack-based marketing techniques she had learned and used in her younger years to “reel clients in” had not resonated with her for quite some time now. She was ready to


build her business with the help of her inner guidance. This meant letting go of all she was taught she was “supposed to do” to cre- ate a thriving business and to instead align herself internally with what she really wanted, to easily connect with clients who were committed to their growth and a joy to work with in a way that felt generative, creative and fun, and to let the universe guide her through inspiration to each next step. So, when the opportunity to have her profile posted in


“Psychology Today” for free for a year came into her inbox, she checked within, and got a clear “yes”! She was not sure what might come of this inspired action, but trusted her internal guidance and filled out the few easy forms to sign up.


Then, she


simply surrendered it and went about her day.


Soon after that someone called her expressing interest in coaching. She asked him where


he had found her and he explained that when he typed in her city and “life coach” in Google, she was at the top of the list! Now, with a rela- tively new website, one of the things Janet had on her list to manifest easily and effortless- ly was a way to increase her search engine optimization (ie. get to the top of Google!). But since she hadn’t aligned with an inspired action on this

Sebastopol, CA. ~ The E- Cigarette revolution we are expe- riencing is successfully helping cigarette smokers quit the smoking habit to a more healthier alter- native.


These benefits include,


inhaling vapor rather than com- bustible smoke, avoiding tar and the countless number of chemicals in every tobacco product, at half the cost. There are countless nic- otine-based flavors both “organic” and “mixed organic”, in varying strengths available at most E Cig/ Vapor stores. The blends of both PG, and VG seems to offer the best flavor, and vapor cloud pro- duction, mimicking the smoking experience, but every taste bud is different, so trying both and many is the best way! The most com- plete stores will offer both lines, be able to educate to the pros, and cons of both, to satisfy every- soon to be “x” smoker. Moreover, it is the educated opin-


ion of this writer that in an unregu- lated industry, where E Liquids can be created by “anyone”, by sourc- ing all the necessary ingredients on line, and they can call it “organic or not”. There is no FDA approval process yet for these products, so until then, do your own research, ask allot of questions, and be wary of stores that don’t carry a full line of everything, as their inter- ests may be disingenuous to some degree, or at least angled to their offerings…. you be the judge! Moving on to the vaporizing bat- teries themselves; there are many to choose from, so beware products that say they are one thing and are actually another.


Chinese manu-


facturing of products create allot of “knock-offs” or again products that look like another product but aren’t, and these can be less expen- sive for a reason, plus not last as long as the real deal.


Look for


products with a long history of success, from a reputable company and stores that carry many lines. A good product should give you 6 months of vaping before needing to be replaced on average. Vaporizing has been around in Asia for years, but is relatively

only a couple years old here in the US, but gaining popularity expo- nentially. For smokers, I call them Nicotine delivery systems. Now there is a botanical based, whole plant extract e-Liquid avail- able that uses 100% FDA approved and certified organic ingredi- ents. HOLI SMOKES, LLC, out of Portland, Ore. has a line of 15 that they call Organic Vaping Tonic™ Formulas. These Tonics can be used in most vaporizers, and deliver notable "terpenoid" effects almost immediately. Plant terpe- noids are used extensively for their aromatic qualities. They play a role in traditional herbal remedies and have many proven pharmaceutical functions. Terpenoids contribute to the scent of eucalyptus, the flavors of cinnamon, cloves, and ginger. Well-known terpenoids include citral, menthol, d-limonene from the skins of citrus and curcumi- noids found in turmeric and mus- tard seed.


HOLI SMOKES gives a color coded rating to their formulas for five different effects: Energetic, Aphrodisiac, Relaxing, Psychic and Euphoric. Users can find a color bar scale on the backs of the bottles showing a number from 1-9 for each effect. They come in a variety of herbal flavors. They taste amazing and are smooth to your lungs and throat. This writer thinks that this is the next great thing in vaporization, available to the other half of the world, who either no longer smoke, or never have, and may want to experience a new enjoyable way to “breathe” wellness into their body. You can visit www.holismokes.com for more detailed information. I encourage you to explore this


new world of possibility for your- self, speak with your local “E “ Cig/ Vapor store (not smoke shop or head shop)…. These Stores are on top of this new revolution and will be able to help educate you and allow you to try for free these products so again, you can judge for yourself. We think this may successfully help cigarette smokers to quit.
