As I sit here on this lovely sunny day in my City Centre Office I look out on the world and I think – what the hell let's have a cuppa.
All the websites are now coming along very well and the content is being added all the time.
Check out www.troubleonline.co.uk to find out what we're upto over the next couple of months, the diary is filling up quickly. I thought we we're going to be hit hard as entertainers in this 'Credit Crunch' but I'm finding that this is the opposite, venue's are actually booking more acts than usual to try and entice people in, so all good for us entertainers.
Talking of websites, both Bobbie and myself are on a crash course of Web Optimization. We're learning fast how to get our sites ranked up the top of the search engine listings, and our office is piling up with 'How To' guides on Web Profiling, Web Optimization, and how a web SEO becomes the top in their business.
It all sounds very technical, and it is, but it all boils down to a simple thing "If the content of your website is fresh and interesting to others then it will be ranked"
There are of course little things that you can do along the way to help though, and it's these helping hands that I'm learning all about and implementing. I have always fancied studying marketing, and this part of our business has given me the opportunity to look into these areas and use the skills I'm learning – who knows I may go to night school in September and study. Miss Whiplash the Media Whore…
Our facebook following is increasing on a daily basis and we're monitoring we're all our hits come from on the various sites. Our Google advertising campaign is going live in the next few days after weeks of planning.
And you just thought we we're just a pair of drag queens…..
In truth we are just Drag Queens, but we're well marketed, well planned and well publicised Drag Queens…..
I have also been busy today liaising with one of our suppliers in the USA, Stephen. He is currently producing our new jingles that will be appearing all over the place within the next 24 hours, as he says they will be with me no later than 11pm ESB (that's New York Time for those not in the know) so that's 7pm GMT (that's UK time!) Both Bobbie and myself are excited about these Jingles – apparently they are called Drops, and are eager to use them wherever we can.
Another thing this weekend is the rehearsals for Boys in the City a new TV production we're involved in with GTenTelevision It's a mix of Queer as Folk and Sex in the City based in and around Manchester, it promises to be a good watch.
We also have to do the first shoot of Trouble Cooking within the next week or so, so will have to finalise the last bits of script for the opening episode.
All this and performing at the crown on Saturday night (with our new jingles) and a trip to a new warehouse for items for www.DragQueenSuperstore.com and then a wedding Fayre for something we're working on with www.AplusEvents.co.uk
It's all go – I was thinking of asking Mr. Brown and Mr. Obama if they could change the week around, the weekend being the week and the week being the weekend. Now I think this would be a good idea and would be an incredible boos to the economy. More people would have time to go out to clubs and bars more people would go shopping, there would have to be more people in the shops to serve the people so on and so forth… If it's a good idea, just drop Mr Brown an email at Number 10, and tell him I think it's a good idea too.
Anyway I must dash of home, I got an article on Google Adsense to go and ponder over…
Write Soon
