Strive to Thrive: United We ALL Stand-Divided We FALL

Kimberly Y. Erwin, author of "There's only 1 RACE-the HUMAN one," says me! A Children's Book: ENDING RACISM! (InterCultural Connect Books, February 2020) shares her ("courageous"--she would add) journey into the "virtual" world of creative leadership, marketing, and business sales.

Upon finding that every upcoming venue near her that she was slated to appear or attend--Book Expo 2020 in NYC, the Brooklyn Book Fair, the Harlem Week's Book Talks, and even the Hudson Children's Book Festival in her hometown!--had all decided to cancel due to the COVID-19 pandemic (which hit her home state of New York incredibly hard initially), she had to regroup and RE:think her options.

There was VIRTUALLY only one--GO ONLINE!

She did...and found a modicum of success--interest in her and her book soared. Ms. Erwin's is chocked full of ways to take one's creativity into the virtual world--the world in which digital and social media is a boon to those who are looking to have a way to pair product with customer and/or their services with client. Let this new children's book author/owner of 1UNIM take you through her journey of how she found a path not only online (to market & sell herself & book), but UNITED with others in her community to bring about awareness of best practices during the coronavirus crisis, thereby attracting future clients and team members to her newly established concern-"aiBoss" (open for "memberships" Summer/Fall 2020).

This talk shares with you how you to team up with others to THRIVE online via:

• various social media online platforms (for engagement of like-minded individuals, team members, and clients/customers);
• varied methods in which to become educated in online terminology (esp. needed for the new to online businesses & brand influencers); and
• valuable website and other online offerings (ie. software "freebies," business starts/models).
