I need everything to slow down for just a few seconds! This guy (Jonathan Lamb) graduates tonight! 👨🎓 And while he has already got a good job in his field and has been adulting for a while, he is still my son and I am IMMENSELY proud of him! Jon is an old soul and his priorities do not include pomp and circumstance but he does deserve to be celebrated and have his efforts recognized. Good Job Son! We are SO Proud of you! Love you! Mom & Dad (David Lamb)
Special Thank you to @blbishopphoto for capturing this guy so well for us!
It starts with a step, then lift your head, and go.
The CLASS OF 2024 . . . How did it get here so soon ? ? ?
Thank you B.L. Bishop Photography for helping me FINALLY document all of the Lamb kids! Once again you made the experience and photos unique.
I wasn’t sure we were going to get here. . . But it is definitely a reason to celebrate! For SO many reasons.
Jon chooses well worn boots and broken in hats. He spends his days wrenching on vehicles and living life with his friends and family. He didn’t care what he wore for his pictures and the only reason he showed up for these pictures was because his Momma ( and favorite photographer) asked.
We invited his grand parents to surprise him for a photo together. They recently celebrated their 60th Wedding Anniversary. Another reason to celebrate. They have been pillars in Jon’s life (all of our lives) and have been able to put a smile on his face since he was born.
Why take pictures? Because Moments captured create memories cherished.
Jon will wear out many more pairs of boots, break in new hats - like his newest one working for Kenworth out of Ashland, and these photos will be his reminders of this place in time.
I sincerely appreciate the relationship Bertha has created with our family, she is an amazing human - her fantastic photography skills were a bonus!
Congratulations Jon on ALL of your achievements. We are so proud of you.

Time to create May’s Marketing! What is your primary CTA? How will you communicate it across all of your platforms? What worked last month? What didn’t, so you adjust for this month? Are you reaching your demographic with the means and motivation to purchase your goods or services?
What has changed in the social media platforms? (Note: Story’s now post on Facebook post section. Be aware you need different content on your story or your material will look duplicated.
Do you have brick and mortar signs to draw people to your online presence with QR codes?
We find in our businesses the easier you make it for people to interact with you the better!
Don’t forget your newsletter! We repurpose the content we create in the newsletter for our social pages because we find these to be 2 different types of users. Both valuable!
Here is your checklist:
✅ Email/Blog content
✅ Social Posts/ Pages / Stories / Groups
✅ Google/Yahoo/Bing Business Page Updates
✅ Website Updates / Keyword monitoring
✅ Paid Ads/ AdWords
✅ Reporting - plan | do | check | adjust | repeat
Your digital fingerprint is created by more than a catchy video or viral social post. Have the pieces in place for consistent, quality, organic growth.
The best marketing is the marketing you do. Have a great Month.

Are you a fountain or a drain? The reality is we all can be both. Somedays we give, some days we take, but do we realize how we impact others? Obviously, we would all choose to be a fountain, but do you have the people in your life that will let you drain or let you know when you are being draining, or help you refill? #RelationshipsAreHard #RealPeople #RealTruth
Happy Birthday Son. Each year I scroll through your albums to pick the best pictures to share. The ones that remind me of yesterday, the ones that show your now and as I do every year, I pray for your future. For your goals and dreams. For you and your wife. For your jobs and your health and everything in between.
May this year be the best one yet. May God make your path clear. Your relationships strong. Your days joyful and your work satisfying and productive.
XOXOXO,
Love,
Mom

What are you doing this evening?
And the tree is lit 🎄 #ChristmasInTheVillage2022 #PlymouthOhio #TinselTowns
So much good food BUT candied pecans are definitely a favorite!
Don’t miss the model trains in the Plymouth Village Hall during Christmas in the Village.
Took a little walk tonight to appreciate Lexington all lit up . . .
I am currently in PT for a glitchy shoulder. As a project manager, I transfer my processes from my work to my personal life. That means I was trying to determine the problem so I could create solutions.
Thank you Susan for the adjusted perspective today! @hogsettept
After sharing what I felt was the “problem” with my therapist (whom by the way is amazing) she asked if I was trying to name it so I could blame it. . .
And the answer was yes. I wanted to label it so I could remove my responsibility to work on the current issue. I wanted the problem to be the solution.
In my work we identify what isn’t working, not to blame or even tame it, but to reframe how to address what is happening.
It is important that we have a solution minded focus whenever we are dealing with conflict. Whether it is conflict of how our bodies are working, how our teams are interacting or how a project is progressing.
What are you naming/labeling and why?
Do you have the end goal in mind or are you creating your own stumbling blocks?
Are you working with professionals or specialist that help you analyze the true problems/symptoms/causes ?
Know the why so you can get to the How and the right Who 👍

So what difference does and “s” make? Hashtagging takes a little trial and error. I wanted to show you the difference just 1 little “s”can make.
One of my customers makes their own sauces. I prefer how sauces sounds when I am reading their hashtags but as you can see it is more valuable to me to use sauce 4.9M posts verses 473K for sauces. You can see which one is more popular.
The other rule of thumb on hashtags is ratio of evergreen or your standard hashtags to the post specific hashtags. It should be 80% standard and 20% post specific.
Currently 10-15 hashtags is recommended. While you can use up to 29. It is no longer the recommended strategy.
