So I have to share something super cool that happened this week. As most everyone knows — I do social media marketing for a living as well as my passion. I love both sides of it –figuring out ways to use it market to certain demographics and then the flip side, to inspire and support people to make themselves a priority in their lives. It’s really the best of both worlds in many ways because I learn through being able to use social media in a real, authentic way. That is not to say that I am not social outside of the Internet world as well.
Nothing and I mean nothing replaces good ole face to face interaction though. Meeting people, talking with them, following up with them — developing meaningful interactions is the key to being memorable in their minds. I have been told I can make friends with a rock — and that skill alone is key to building relationships. I don’t fake it – I don’t pretend to show interest in things I could give a shit about — and I don’t do it expecting to get things back for it. It’s REAL. I do it because I love it!!
So, I was thrilled and honored to be offered something called a Klout Perk last week. Klout Perks are rewards given from brands in recognition of your influence. They are based on your Klout Score, topics and location. So being in the fitness community and the relationships I have made — I was sent a super awesome perk yesterday.
A new Sony Action Cam! It’s a mountable camcorder that lets you show the action as you see it, all with legendary Sony video quality & Wi-Fi.
Even though they sent it, there is no expectation that I would have to talk about it, or review it or say things about it that I don’t believe. But it’s such an awesome perk that of course I am going to!!
I have opened the box and started reading about all the cool stuff I can do with it. It’s currently being charged, so look for some cool videos very soon.
And thank you so much Klout and Sony. I certainly don’t do this expecting anything but I really do appreciate it.

We did Diane which is a benchmark three months ago. Seeing and paying attention to your progress is key when doing benchmarks — this go around I went up #5lbs in weight and finished 18 seconds faster than last time! Progress —

As mentioned above, I was given a free product because I’m a Klout influencer. I am under no obligation to receive the product or talk about this company. I get no additional benefits for talking about the product or company.
