Ms. Cheevious in Hollywood

My Zany Years Spent Working in Tinsel Town

Amazon

It’s all about the presence

by

 

I was recently trying to describe the task it is to manage the number of online profiles I am responsible for. I explained it as such:

My days are FILLED with status posting, sharing, photographing interesting events or items, sharing those, responding, surfing the internet for useful tips for my followers and posting again – ALL ON MULTIPLE PLATFORMS FOR MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS.

Then I write blogs, and write articles for LiveStrong and Huffington Post. AND I WRITE BOOKS, YOU GUYS!!!

What I did NOT say is what that involves for certain specific accounts. There are “duties” I take care of almost every day which are extremely time consuming, and generally take about half of my work-day to complete.

I know. BAT.SHIT.CRAZY.

Bat Shit Crazy from too much Social Media?

I finally asked this question:

How do you think you would fare trying to create and manage an internet footprint like mine?

 

FOOTPRINT

 

Just to give you an idea, I keep all of my online passwords in a password-protected Word document. This document is 39 (YES, THIRTY-NINE) pages long.

Here are the social media platforms I maintain a presence for. Let’s hope this stuff starts to pay-off in GREENBACKS, un-kay? The pay-off has already begun, so I’m not too worried. It just takes diligence.

(Feel free to follow any of these. Get busy, unless you plan to do what Cady McClain advises in her blog, in which case, you are absolved).  

Before you read any further, full disclosure: I CHEAT.

USEFUL TOOL: MUCH of the regular work I do on Twitter is done through a huge control panel called TWEETDECK (which allows you to add multiple Twitter accounts, as well as columns tracking hashtags, lists of followers (as in “MsCheevious Fans” or whatever). Others use HootSuite or Gremlin to do the same thing, but I like TweetDeck. It enables me to have conversations and reply to people without logging in and out of various accounts, and I can tweet LIVE from any of those accounts easily from within the control panel.

SCHEDULING STATUS UPDATES & TWEETS: Additionally I use an automated scheduling service called SENDIBLE.COM which enables me to schedule in advance any tweets, pinterest photos, youtube videos, blog posts, facebook posts, google plus status and photos, pretty much ANYTHING I WANT TO POST. This is tremendous if utilized properly. Twitter will not allow you to tweet the same thing more than once every 12 hours, nor should you. But with Sendible, I can schedule interesting articles related to my brand to go out once every couple of months or so (and for up to a year or so, depending on relevance) (for MsCheevious the brand may be: Flirtiness, Sassy Mommy tips, Dating, Relationships. LisaJey: Fitness, Relationships, Health. Jey Associates: Best PR Practices, etc), and this makes my life so much easier. Also if networking friends ask for me to help them promote an event, I can do short term scheduling in one sitting. I have done GREAT things with this scheduler, including increasing my internet presence, helping others, who in turn help me. And I have WON SOME EXCEPTIONAL PRIZES with my mad social media skills. Just sayin’.

Permission to Scream

by

I’m on a bit of a rampage. Wait. Stop. Let me rewind a bit. I’ll set the scene for you:

A fabulous new freelancer (who is super cheap and comes highly recommended) is working to upload my Yoga routine book to other platforms besides iBooks and Amazon… (no small task, mind you… dealing with and educating the freelancer, that is).

Simultaneously, I’ve got a couple of PR clients whom I pitch and arrange interviews for, as well as submit them for and take them to red carpet events. Why isn’t this listed first, since it pays the bills, you ask? Meh… I can do this one with my eyes closed. I love it, but it doesn’t cause a rampage unless someone does a client wrong. The reason I’m even talking about it is because I’m taking a big risk here by not pursuing more clients, even though one of my few has just gone on hiatus.  I made this decision because dammit all, I WILL finish my books, come HELL or high water… even if it means a) I give up my apartment and spend a chunk of my last remaining savings to b) put everything in storage, c) risk MC Nugget getting kicked out of his apartment for harboring a stow-away, and d) continue to use my beloved VW Jetta as the great Costco storage vehicle… I’m okay with being a starving artist, if it means I’ll finish my passion-projects. But shit. It does tend to send the stress barometer into hyperdrive.

But the icing on the cake came with a little tiny request I sent out weeks ago to some of my noteworthy friends (or if they aren’t noteworthy, they are beloved) for advanced reviews of my newest book (almost finished, but waiting on those reviews) “Getting Over Your Ovaries – How to Make “The Change of Life Your Bitch” —

Getting over your ovaries by Lisa Jey Davis ebooksm

While some of them did reviews (one of which is posted here) and amazed me with their sentiments (and for taking the time) – the others… well, you’d think I was asking them to slay their first born. The book is all of two chapters. Let’s just say, this is the thing that will drive me to drink this weekend.

I’d now like your permission to scream.

But before I do, and before I go, please know – this is not at all about you. It it most definitely about ME.

That is all.

Oh wait. I didn’t forget Mother’s Day. How could I? Wait for it and I’ll deliver. Yep – you’ll hear from me twice in a week… it may not be a blog post, but I’ll be in touch! Oh my!

Love you people!!!! Mmmmppphhhuuuhhh!!!

Resolution-Based Date Ideas for 2013

by

This is going to be brief (not). We are far too busy during the holidays to sit around reading random posts by aspiring writers (even if they’ve just published a book on Amazon for Kindle – oh yeah… uh huh…). But I wanted to get this off to you quickly… before the Hanukkah and Christmas decorations were yanked off the walls and the New Year’s Eve celebrations and the endless professions of New Year’s Resolutions began.

You know, I’m not much on making resolutions. I’ve got enough lists of things to do, one of which is my list of lifelong and short-term goals. I am so damn goal-oriented, I get overwhelmed looking at how long my list of goals has become.

That said, I’m not living under a rock, and I see your tweets and Facebook posts. I see what you share with me in your circles. I realize everyone is thinking in these last few days of the year about New Year’s Resolutions.

So I’m going to provide you my giant list of Goals or Resolutions for the coming year (there are two), and I’m double-timing the list. It will also serve as a list of great date ideas for you and any significant other you choose, or happen to be with, in 2013. I love killing two birds with one stone. So instead of hitting the Hot or Not or Tinder app you single wild-things, try THIS. And this first one might feel a little harsh, but that’s what resolutions are for.

1. CLEANSE THE CRAP AWAY.

My Resolution: This past year I went through a TON of crap, surgically, physically, mentally, emotionally… you name it. I also have deep emotions about food and booze. I’m in love with both of them. It’s a sordid love triangle. If I need to feel the love, I allow myself more indulgence than is generally necessary. So, come January, (after the New Year’s holiday travel), I’ll be lean, and dry, eating organically as much as possible, and drinking all non-alcoholic beverages. I plan to do this for at least a month. Stay tuned on that.

Your Date: Similar to me, many of you have experienced your own share of CRAP. Only yours may have been with the opposite sex. If that is the case, do a cleansing ritual of your own (perhaps burn their names on little tiny pieces of paper and send their ashes down the toilet). Then do us all a favor (yourself mostly) and vow to have a closed door policy on your life, would you? At least in regard to Mr. or Ms. Charming. Unless he or she does what they should to be granted admittance, don’t let that door creak open. Trust me. You’ll be surprised and delighted. Once you are surprised and delighted, let them in, and you can continue the cleansing as follows:

Take a BATH together baby. You and your date should seek out a cool bath house, a hot springs spa, outdoor pools, or simply fill the backyard (or indoor) Jacuzzi! Then jump in and enjoy. Bring the strawberries and wine or champagne. Just because I am abstaining from alcohol, doesn’t mean you must.

Awesome pools for skinny dipping

2. EXERCISE FREQUENTLY.

My Resolution:  For the same reasons listed above, my daily workout regimen has suffered greatly. I’m feeling more these days like a bobble-body than a svelte, lean, mean fighting machine (which I vehemently prefer). Play time is OVER. Time to get back to it, and at LEAST 3 times per week, at that. This starts the same time as the cleansing.  Yes.  It’s on. (And yes, I will probably be doing my yoga practice which is in my new book on Amazon — yeeeeee!!!!)

Your Date:  We could figuratively go to a wide array of places with this one… have sex frequently (I love that one), go to the gym together… But how about you go out for a long walk or hike? Next time, ride bikes. Don’t own one? Take a drive to the nearest bike-friendly location and rent them for the day. If bikes aren’t your thing, there are any number of alternatives: roller skating, blading, skateboarding, exercise your mind playing chess in the park. Pick an exercise and do it together!

Just be Active!

That’s all I got for ya‘.  I told you it would be brief.  Now, if you are so inclined, I’d love for you to find my books on Amazon for the Kindle, Kindle Fire and Kindle Fire HD.  Don’t have a Kindle? It’s okay! Amazon has a free Kindle Reader for your computer.  Click here to see my books, and if you choose to purchase one for a buck, ninety-nine, there should be an option to download Kindle for PC or Mac.

Have a beautiful, fun, safe New Year’s Eve celebration lovely ladies and gentlemen!  I’ll be in touch very soon!

#MomFactor: If you’re a single mom, all of the above applies to you. And I MEAN THAT. Get out there and date, lady! If you aren’t single, get out there with your significant other and DATE lady!
