shiatsu 101 internet sauvy
i mailed this to the shiatsu therapy association of bc today…our wonderful lynn is doing a fine job of updating the website…she is a cracker. love her.
” honey,
the point of internet marketing is to capture the email address for all future campaigns. you can send out and the client can chose to unsubscribe. if they dont then you have a platform to market to.
the best internet marketers have mailing lists into the millions. if you need to sell something, then the return capital is in the purchase power of your mailing lists.
to do good business, you have to market to the broad base. the buyers buy, the readers self educate and the rest are dormant until you bring them a toy they want.
i think that everyone can be a shiatsu therapist in training until they get their certification. it is important to include people in the language of shiatsu. even if they are at the beginning, they must know the sweet sounds of the end. it is like manna for their intellectual soul.
get the damn mailing list! lol “
what i realize it that that works on anything you are creating in this modern computer world. you have to get into the habit of collecting email addresses. just in case you do have some worthy promoting.
in this case, it is the furtherment of our organization. shiatsu must step up to the plate. we have a skill that is important to the wellness of everyone on the planet. we must grow that skill set!
we must strive to educate, to enrich, to enjoy, to enthuse to everyone, from the young child to the oldest elder.
where else would you learn about the buttons to communicate to your innards. to your very spirit. to wonder about what it is that creates health. the interaction of ourselves and our environment. to study chi.
in the case of your dying, how to navigate the roads to a happy ending. one free of the baggage of doubt, sorrow and worry.
i dont know about you, i want to be grateful of my life at the end. to have known that i had lived to the best of my abilities. to share that excellence that i have nurtured through practice and good attitude.
all that i have learnt have been worthy of sharing. today i share my love of shiatsu. thank god i stumbled into my study of healing and heart. i know that everyday is another adjustment, a fine tuning of that frequency of joy. my toys have always served me to find that ability to self care. shiatsu is one of those tools.
i am thankful to my first teacher karen cruikshank and all my fellow shiatsu practitioners. who are my best friends on the planet… tania marshall.
the past three years, i have been a member at large for the shiatsu therapy association. i am getting to really know the heart and intelligence of the committee and i am so grateful for this time with them. we live in the shadow of legitimacy and i have always known that with accreditation from a board of standards, i could face the world of mainstream with the strength of all my fellow practitioners in numbers. standing alone is not my favorite agenda. i am glad that i have spent the time with the members and even though i wanted to step down this year, i am knowing that if not me, then who. i must rise to the bar. always have, always will.
i challenge any of you who may read this, to also contemplate service to the energy of shiatsu…we need to gather and be one.
be well my friends and know that i will show you that everyday is a learning day!
