Brag Basket is open for you

By Small Biz Survival

brag basketEach Friday, I open the brag basket as a fun place to brag or promote yourself and your projects.

Last week, Jeanne “OkieJ” Cole bragged on the Waynoka BPW and their working woman honoree, Connie Reece bragged on a collaborative work project, Jon Swanson bragged on getting wide attention thanks to Chris Brogan, and Jon also bragged on Jim Long‘s trifecta of video. Woot! What a great braggy week!

What will you brag about this week? It can be your business, your community, or your self. You can even brag on other folks, if you want. It’s fun, and you get a link back, not to mention applause from us.

I use the Brag Basket as a reminder to review my week. How did I do? Did I act on my goals? Did I build relationships? I recommend you review your week, too.

You can leave a comment right now, or dm beckymccray on Twitter.

    My Christmas Tree is UP…and I covered it in PINK ornaments…just to make my kids happy…eventhough I’m kind of an anti-pink person. :-)

    Susan has cancer. And people who can’t be in her geography are still doing what they can to care and encourage and talk and be present. It’s a very cool thing (not the cancer, but the very real concern)

    LizaJne, Congrats! I remember that request for the pink tree, so you have been very wise in working out a compromise. :)

    Jon, thanks for the reminder that our social networks lead to real concerns.

    Twitter Buddy CathleenRitt has a terrific item to brag on:
    “My book is coming out this week!!” You can find the announcement at her site, Sporadic.

    Congratulations, Cathleen!
