We DARE you to SUCCEED!
My husband and I recently celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary. We are blessed with 5 children between us and 12 fabulous grandchildren, and a relationship that has had more good times than bad. But relationships, just like your business, require hard work and most of all attention, to thrive. As an anniversary gift, we decided to do the Love Dare. This book takes you on a 40 day journey with assignments (dares) you must accomplish each day as a couple and individual.
It has been an excellent way for us to reconnect and have conversations, we simply didn't have often anymore. Silly disagreements have turned into laughter and a renewed appreciation for one another has emerged.
As we have worked the book, I have not allowed myself to read ahead, but face each day's dare fresh, as we read it together. "Okay, okay, that's really nice JoAnne, but what does that have to do with my business?" you may be saying. I realized as I read the book, this is exactly what I suggest to all of you when you are marketing your business...just one thing each day! So we created 365 ways to grow your business, just follow our dares each day. Better than vitamins, this is
One a Day Dare Marketing or in our vernacular, ODD Marketing. After all, we are quite proud of out ODDness.
Try it out FREE! Sign up for a free week of challenges and dares that we promise will bring new life to your business...if you commit to doing them. Your follow through will be your only requirement.

THE ONE DAY TRIPLE PLAY ODD Squad Columnist-Cheryl Cousins
"The Queen of Green" 
The trend toward green can begin right in your home by simply adding live greenery. It instantly makes any room more warm and inviting. We already consider greenery an accessorizing finishing touch, but by adding live plants to a space, you also create a healthier place. Because plants clean the air, the benefit is twofold. You don't even need a green thumb; here are 3 Green Tips to get you growing... 1. Employ English Ivy You can "put it to work" almost anywhere you would typically place silk greens. Green thumb not required, as long as the location is naturally lit, it will grow. English Ivy is an awesome bookcase filler. Maintenance is easy, just trim away any vines that are too long. 2. Break out the Butterfly Palm Also called the Areca Palm, use it to fill large spaces and empty corners. It can be purchased in varying sizes from 4 to 12ft. They are attractive, inexpensive and readily available; a beautiful addition to any décor. 3. For Peace Sake, at least try the Peace Lily
This medium sized plant will thrive in partial/filtered sun and is a favorite for those whose thumbs are more brown than green. It typically grows no more than 4' tall and 4' wide. This plant looks great adjacent to accent chairs and sofa tables and are fabulous for hiding those unsightly lamp cords! Each week "One Day Triple Play" will feature three great tips from an ODD Squad, Certified SDP Trainer.
