Time tracking blog

So, I have been told that I am very forward, upfront & sometimes take too much ownership in projects that I dive into.  I think it actually worked out to my benefit this time.

When Matt & I started our “off-Twitter” conversation, our very first phone call we agreed that we would be totally honest with each other…brutally honest that is.  It worked.  Matt saw and understood the vision for a Social Media Sales & Marketing position and I saw the vision of TSheets & where we could take it by engaging in current online conversations.  Beautiful!

Matt is a forward thinking CEO with a background in traditional sales yet sees and completely understands that social media is sales and is part of the overarching marketing and sales goals…it is not just “the girl that blogs & talks online” (old job title I overheard someone give me at the last gig).  He gets “it”.

My first week consisted of:

• Getting my feet wet on how TSheets works as the customer
• Listening to what the customers & potential customers are saying “out there”
• Putting together a PR plan for the release of the TSheets integration with FreshBooks
• Move to new office – (sweet digs by the way!)
• Map out my social media metrics for December (& start planning on how/where to hit those)
• Learn how to get up at 5:30am (and not 7am) in order to make it to an 8:03 daily meeting

My second week is taking care of the tasks that I give myself every day.  I literally have 5-10 pages of notes/to do’s that I need to get done/look up/research/participate in etc.  (Must-get-organized)

I am absolutely thrilled to be here at TSheets.  I can’t wait to make a difference and have a proven social media model that can be repeated every month.
