TAKING CARE OF YOU: Promote Yourself on Paper

From the beginning, The Professional Family Manager has always asserted the importance of respecting your role as mother in the same manner as you respect any other career; that you should dress, present yourself, treat yourself, and speak of yourself as a professional in your field.

I have written about the benefits of having business cards for yourself--whether or not you have a business or blog--to present when you need to give out your information; it's certainly much better than scrambling in your purse for a scrap of paper on which to write your name and phone number. As a mother, you've been in that position before, whether on the playground or meeting a contractor or at a store.

I am very proud to have UPrinting as a sponsor of The Professional Family Manager, especially as I believe they are a fantastic company to which everyone should turn for high quality printing. Take a look at their great business card--you are not limited by the standard rectangle but can get unusual cut-outs to really make your card stand out. Who ever decided that a business card must look like a business card? Have some fun with it!

Christmas is 162 days away. Why not start thinking about your Christmas cards/family newsletters? Get them ordered and pre-printed and save yourself the last-minute scribbling in the card.

UPrinting will also print canvas prints for your special photos, family calendars, stationery, and more.

I'm going to order one of these as a present for my oldest daughter. Two summers ago she got her first and only dog--a deep-red Golden Retriever--who she has been diligently training in obedience, agility, and conformation. These two have the closest bond; they are a great pair. I'm going to surprise her with a picture of the two of them that I took shortly after she brought him home. I want her to always remember the joy she felt when her sweet dog came into her life.
