Mad Mimi is Here to Help You

I use a great tool when communicating my business which I like to share with you. It’s an online email service which allows you to create really well designed emails in no time. No html-coding, just use the very user friendly and extremely easy tools to write your message, make headlines and drag and drop your own pictures to build a professional looking email that you can send to customers or others with whom you need to look very neat and professional. And of course you can use it for private correspondence as well. I think it’s a great tool to use for example Christmas wishes or if you’d like to show photos in a nice way.


MadMimi is designed so that everyone could create a well-designed, elegant email. Even Grandma.


How I use it

I use the MadMimi service for emails, invoices and pitches. You can store mailing lists in the program and divide them into groups which receives different kind of emails. I have created lists for customers, potential customers, media and so on. Another great thing I appreciate is when I have sent an email, I can see which of the recipients actually opened the mail. I also get a message if any of the email addresses no longer are in use. In that way I easily keep my mailing lists up to date.

Great features

You can also change color, fonts and overall appearances of your emails, making them as individual as you like. The service is very well priced and I only pay a few dollars a month for a service that fits my business perfectly.

Mean it

Everyone wants their children to be happy, responsible, and well adjusted, and Mary O’Donahue wrote a book addressing just that. Her book, When You Say “Thank You,” Mean It (And 11 Other Lessons for Instilling Lifelong Values in Your Children), is based on  a practical month-by-month guide that can be adapted and work for any family. This unique system gets kids actively involved in three specific fun and meaningful exercises each month.

As the month unfolds, children begin to understand why specific virtues are important and how to live them. 

And by focusing on just one value a month, children have an opportunity to really explore what the value means to them.
