The first retailer to carry Honestly Margo's products was Cayman's Clothiers Inc. in Norman, a business owned by a woman entrepreneur who inspired Margo, Irene Gianos said. "She could see a bit of that in her, that drive, and was totally on board, wanting to support her," Irene … [Read more...]

You've heard me talk about this latest and greatest new social media app. Hardly anyone knows about it truly I think. Periscope.

K.I.T. = Keep in touch, in case you didn't know. (Have another post for you on that topic... wheels always spinning, you know!) I was a marketing major.
