Welcome to Bella in Your Business, where Bella will discuss anything and everything about your pet sitting business to help you land on target. So get ready, Bella's got your chute. Let's jump. Everybody and welcome to episode four of Bella in Your Business. I'm Bella Vasta with Jump Consulting and I'm so glad that you're listening to me today. I wonder, where are you listening to me? Are you listening on your computer, maybe your laptop in the house while you're folding laundry, driving around in your earbuds while you're walking a dog? Shoot on over to facebook.com/bellainyourbusiness. Like the page and tell me where are you listening. I've been on quite a rampage today explaining to people how valuable podcasts such as this one could be and what kind of things people are listening to.
I found out that pet sitters are listening to everything from sermons to TED Talks to Comedy Central on Sirius Satellite Radio to podcasts and webinars and YouTube clips, all kinds of things. And I hope that if you're one of those people, you add me to your library as well. You can just go to iTunes and search for Bella in Your Business, and you can add the episodes to your repertoire if you will. Or you can go to Stitcher if you are a Stitcher member. That's a free app that has tons of podcasts on it. I listen to a lot of Marcus Sheridan over there as well as Peter Shankman, who has a podcast interviewing entrepreneurs on all of their mistakes, and his premise is that nothing is really a mistake in business as long as you learn from it. And my friend Peter, I love that idea. In fact, if you even want to see more from Peter Shankman, I landed a ten-minute interview with him face-to-face over Google Hangout. You can shoot on over to my Google profile page and hit the YouTube videos, and you can see it there.
Alright, so catching you guys up, it is now November, if you can believe it. A lot of you pet sitters are hitting it out of the park. I hear you're up 30%, 40%, 20%, all kinds of crazy amazing things, and I am just cheering along with you. I am so excited to hear that. I'm so excited to see you guys growing your business and making the adjustments to make your business work for you. A lot of you have been asking how I can keep going when I'm going through my own personal crisis. I've been very transparent and open about that. I have a beautiful baby daughter named Olivia, who's currently 110 days in the NICU, and she is such a little trooper. She was born at 12 ounces, 10 inches long, and is now six and a half pounds, and holy cow can that girl pack a punch. We're just working on her lungs developing right now. But I go to NICU every single day.
