The Great Carson City Literary Festival is coming to town on the weekend of June 6-8 at Mills Park. The festival will have many family oriented and child activities including authors of every genre, a book nook with readings by the actual authors, Kid Chef Eliana who will be doing cooking demonstrations, a giant bounce house and obstacle course, a free kids art tent, food, and much more.

First make a list of your collections of special items. It could be antique furniture, old guns, special china or silverware, dolls, sculptures, old cars, baseball cards, etc.

Then consider meeting with the family before you decide which items will go to which family members (or friends). Maybe a beneficiary will prefer receiving cash instead of a collectible item.

Then think about which person will be the best choice for particular items. Which one will pass on to the grandchildren and future generations?

The other day, I had a conversation with a client who had a tiny marketing budget. Although their product was great, they had a hard time getting the word out because they couldn't afford to advertise like they wanted. Advertising is important, but it’s not end end-all, be-all of business. There are three things you need to build a customer base, or what I’d like to call your future fan base.

1) A product or service worth talking about
2) An opportunity to expose people to that winning product or service
