FL 124 – We celebrate Marnie's HUGE membership launch

Celebrating the New Year with a Success Story! Hey y'all! We wanted to start 2017 with a shout out to all our members, fans, listeners… all of you who have supported us through thick and thin, Happy New Year! Our first episode is an amazing success story from one of our FYL community members, Marnie Ginsberg, Ph. D. Marnie lives with her husband and 3 wonderful daughters in Madison, WI. She has been deeply involved with educational research and has been a teacher for about 20 years; her research focused on strategies to nurture readers and help them overcome learning hurdles. She also became a private tutor and consultant. Her passion and dedication led her to pursue her doctoral studies at the University of North Carolina, where she coached and guided teachers through a unique and dynamic K-2 reading intervention. This brought in promising results from students who struggled in reading and comprehension. Mrs. Ginsberg had long been intrigued by the online business scene. She has been building her blog and email list since 2015 and by October 2016, she had managed to reach a thousand subscribers. She then co-founded the Reading Simplified Academy and was successful in her recent membership launch. Join us as we talk about Marnie's amazing journey. How did she reach her milestone, what did it take to be where she is today and the lessons she had learned along the way. We will also be brainstorming on how she can retain members and maintain the membership. The year has just begun. We have a lot in store for y'all!

We've signed him up for a program called Center Shot, which is a program at our church that takes the sport of archery and applies biblical principles to it, and shows how it is like in archery we don't want to miss the mark, and the same thing is true in our faith.  It is cool to be able to go and volunteer in that sport.
