Quintessential to what it takes to be a small business owner - especially in a rural setting -is the capacity to have interests and skills in many areas. Becky can elegantly speak to her work as a consultant, grant writer, copywriter and more, while ringing the cash register for her own local business.... Becky speaks insightfully, almost poetically, about the how and why of rural living and business.

Becky agreed to co-host the 1st Live #Blogchat event at South By Southwest in March of 2011. I threw Becky quite the curveball, as I asked her to join and help facilitate the discussion and flow at this event with only a couple of hours notice. But I did that because I knew that she could handle the event, and she did so flawlessly. Becky is a very polished yet completely natural speaker, and that resonates with her audience. She was a star of our event, and a huge reason why it was so successful.

Becky is one of the most effective presenters I’ve had the privilege of hearing. She is approachable, relevant and presents with tremendous clarity and richness. I have learned so much from her presentations, as well as from following her blog. Anyone who has the opportunity to hear her should take it!

I think your ideas on using small town truths to run business and your social presence were insightful and made lots of people rethink ideas they brought with them into the room.
