🍍 Aloha Friday Scoops From Your Techie Bestie | April 12, 2024


Happy Aloha Friday Reader!! 🌺

Can we mark this week as the time some of us watched the sun and moon make out for about 4 minutes? I kid.

The state of Texas took off the day from school & work and I found myself going out of the office for half the day to share the groovy experience with family and besties.

I asked ChatGpt for an eclipse pun and this is what they gave me:

I was going to tell a joke about the eclipse, but it seems a little shady.

AI is everywhere so of course I found this article interesting from WiseStamp.

An Interview with Chatgpt: Can AI think outside of the box for email marketing?

Can Chatgpt think outside of the box for email marketing? IT sure can! One question that lingers above all, especially in the world of marketing, a world in which thinking outside of the box reigns, is can a closed system trained to literally create a box within which to operate. Actually think outside of the box, or will human ingenuity still be required to achieve creative heights?

What are your thoughts? Hit reply and let me know!


How to boost productivity based on your Enneagram personality type

Iʻm always been fascinated with how either Strength Finders or Enneagram shows me how I can work ʻbetterʻ based on my results in their findings.

Iʻm a type 2 for the Enneagram so of course was peeked when this email came through from Zapier (which I LOVE).

Curious what type you are?

Capcut

A tool I use weekly is Capcut. This video editing tool has been an easy to use tool to help me level up videos for myself and clients. There are many others, I used to use InShot, but I loved that Capcut exports into a MP4 format and itʻs why I shifted over fullly to Capcut.

Find what works for YOU. This was mine.

Psst again, they have a free option (high five) so head over to Capcut. https://www.capcut.com/capcut_pc_web/fission_receive?code=nScBl701252009&lng=en

This is a referral link for full transparency.

I remember when I first saw this lady on the Facebook for a military spouse entrepreneur group years ago when trying to find other military spouses to connect with.

I adore Moni Jefferson and everything she does for the military spouse entrepreneur community. She created AMSE™ (Association of Military Spouse Entrepreneurs) and many of my military friendships were created in her space.

If you love Instagram, follow her here.

I love connecting on LinkedIn and sharing my bestieʻs LinkedIn Profiles

This week's question is

"Do you use an AI Notetaker for your online meetings?"

Catch my latest video to learn more about that!

Need a link to that company I recommed? Link here: https://fathom.video/invite/x7ja8Q

**please note that is a referral link but ONLY refer things I personally use or have used.


K, Byeeeeee!

P.S.- Loved this conversation with our upcoming guest Naomi Greenstein and talking about the human perspective that AI just canʻt catch when creating amazing copy for yourself or clients.

Her episode will stream live here and be available on our podcast here.

Think of this email as having your work bestie sharing what they found on social media, in their emails, what tool they used to make the job easier, and community besties that may be of value for their (your) network. Techie Bestie Activate. (*sips coffee*)

Hey hey Reader! 1️⃣ The Email List Growth Toolkit(free through Friday, March 27) I've been saying for a while that the problem isn't visibility — it's not having a clear bridge between the platforms you're already showing up on and your email list. So I created one. And it's now inside Allison Hardy's Email List Growth Toolkit — completely free this week. My resource inside is The Inbox Influence: The Platform → Email Bridge Builder™, and it sits alongside 40+ other expert tools to help you...

Aloha Bestie, Can I be honest with you for a sec? For a long time, I thought I just needed to fix one more thing. Get more consistent with content. Build better systems in my business. Finally get my inbox under control. Organize my Notion. The list never ended. And every time I poured my energy into one area… something else quietly fell apart. Sound familiar? The problem wasn’t that I wasn’t trying hard enough. It was that I kept treating every part of my life like a separate problem that...

Can I ask you something honest? Is there an area of your life that keeps getting pushed to the back burner… because something else always seems more urgent? Maybe it's your wellbeing. Your creativity. Your sense of purpose. Or just the feeling that your days could flow a little more... intentionally. If any of that resonates, I have something I think you'll love. I'm so excited to share that I'll be speaking at the Aligned Life Summit — a free, 5-day virtual event happening March 23rd–27th,...
