Print Services for Individuals and Businesses - Try Curo Managed Print Production

When it comes to printing services, professionals must reach out to partners who are willing to handle their growing needs as well as find out how they can save money in the future by partnering with them.

Nicholl McGuire Media is always on the look out for businesses who are experienced, knowledgeable, and deliver quality prints.  Recently, I met with Curo president, Adam Knight, who provided valuable insight on the printing industry, talked about the equipment he uses, and what services his business provides.  Knight explained how he saves his customers money by passing on cost savings to them.  He also shared that he works with businesses who have in-plant copy centers and talked of his experiences.

When it comes to planning and developing any project, always have more than one contractor in mind, how much money you are planning to spend, and what are alternatives that can best help you manage expenses.

From small projects to large volume print jobs, Curo is a company worth taking a look.  Learn more about their services here.

Linked In

Sometimes we just don't have a clue who the people are we consider doing business with online.  Nicholl is transparent about her work, skills and affiliations.  Being a part-time faith speaker and mother of four, she understands why it is important to get to know one's business associates.  Feel free to learn more on Linked In.  See here.

No Time to Fill out Forms Online? Virtual Help is Here!

Sometimes one can be so overwhelmed with everything offline that online tasks are left abandoned.  New jobs, babies, relationship issues, caring for an elderly relative, and more can take up much time leaving little time to get Internet tasks completed.

Did you just start a research project, but didn't complete it?  Designed a photo album, but failed to populate it?  Created videos, but never uploaded them?  Wrote articles, but never submitted them?  What about filled out forms for freebies, but stopped because you had other things to do?  Maybe you need someone to browse ads, look up data, find current websites, or update a spreadsheet?  If so, you need a virtual assistant.

Formatting e-books?

It can be overwhelming for some to format any manual, report, book, etc. for Internet reading.  If you or someone you know has a manuscript just waiting to be formatted for websites like: Smashwords, Kindle, Createspace, Kobo Writing Life, Bookemon, and other self-publishing websites, then send us an e-mail with your request and date you would need it to be completed.  You will be provided with a price quote. Scroll to the right for contact information.

Consulting: Self-publishing, Work at Home Opportunities, Inspirational Media

Sometimes Nicholl McGuire Media consults with individuals about how to self-publish or what we think about various ways to make money on the Internet.  We provide tips and resources, but additional services like speaking engagements and training sessions are provided for a nominal fee.  In addition, Nicholl is asked periodically questions by people of faith about her inspirational videos and requests for prayers (YouTube channel: nmenterprise7).  These are just additional ways that this small business helps others.  If you have a similar business and would like any future referrals, please leave a comment with your business name and contact information. 

Family Books, Memoirs, Brag Books, Short Stories...Let's Get Them Started During October

Throughout the month of October, Nicholl McGuire Media will be working with individuals who want to share their stories of abuse.  October is domestic violence awareness month and so those who are interested in leaving behind the good, bad and ugly life lessons learned and how they have overcome will need to send inquries to nichollmcguire@gmail.com  Whether you want an article, book, blog or slideshow, whatever you choose, you will want to connect with our staff soon.

Nicholl McGuire Media is offering a ghost writing service to survivors of abuse just for October and the number of clients we will take is limited.  This is a pay as you go service.  The first interview about one's book idea will be conducted for free and then each future meeting will incur an hourly rate which doesn't include publishing expenses (which are very reasonable). 

After reaching out to us with name, phone number, and request, allow for a minimum of two hours phone consultation.  Leave the best time to contact you in your e-mail.  New authors keep all rights and necessary paperwork will be provided to protect all parties.

We are looking forward to making your dream of writing a book a reality!

New Book Release - Tell Me Mother You're Sorry by Nicholl McGuire

Years of assisting various mothers, establishing and severing ties with Mom and Grandma, connecting with partners' mothers, and other parental related experiences, Nicholl brings a wealth of personal experience, wisdom and validation to those sons and daughters choosing to go low and no contact with their mothers.

"I grew weary of the disappointments, secrets, stressors, and more that came when dealing with certain loved ones and family friends...After being emotionally burned repeatedly, eventually you reach a point where you can't take much more.  So over the years I have went low as well as no contact with many toxic people and am quite content, thanks to God."

Tell Me Mother You're Sorry is a work of non-fiction and a guide created to help with some of the struggles adult sons and daughters of troubled mothers face.  Learn more about the book and the author on YouTube channel: nmenterprise7.

Video/Slideshow/Audio Tribute to a Great Lady, Mentor, Friend and Grandmother

Nicholl McGuire Media was asked by relatives recently to compose a slideshow/video presentation for our late grandmother also known as "Great Ma."  We took the liberty of collecting some great photographs and then organizing them in a moving presentation.  We also added video clips of the lady we all knew for speaking boldly and making many laugh.  In addition, we created a separate video that included an audio clip of the deceased which was also played during the funeral ceremony for family and beloved friends.  Viewers found the presentation wonderful to view and the audio heart-warming. 

Rest in Peace.  Ms. Wilma Tyus 1929-2015

Personal Experience and Tips on Modern Day News Collecting, Researching

Over the years, things have changed much since I started out as a poet, next a short story writer, then a journalist, later a blogger, then in recent years a ghost writer and a self-published author. 


You can only imagine the frustration I experienced over the years changing different hats and having to learn new software programs, how to upload and download, use basic HTML while discovering new ways to research for a variety of topics then using many different writing styles. 


Since 2007, I have written thousands of pages and still have much to do before I close my eyes.  So I thought wouldn't it be nice to share how journalists, writers and others use the Internet to gather their information?  Here are some tips:


1.  Search your topic using different search engines.
2.  Put your question in the search engine.
3.  Search for the person you need to interview by including things like "expert," "award-winning," "noted," "scholar" and any other title or description that best suits the person you need for your story.
4.  Google, Facebook, Linked In, Yellow and White Pages all have contact information on most individuals.  There are also websites that will provide a personal email address for a small fee. 
5.  You can ask people in your Twitter network for any additional information about your story.
6.  If you are having problems generating ideas for your topic, check out websites related to your topic.  There are sites for live chat, niche forums and comment sections on popular sites that might help.
7.  There are many websites that allow images to be used freely.  You can check Flickr and Bing for Creative Common Rights to use photos and clipart.
8.  YouTube and similar websites are great places to find people interested in speaking about many topics. (Note: Don't forget bloggers too!)
9.  You can check out informative presentations on Slideshare to help with your story.
10.  Take the time to update your status or post a question or comment to generate opinions and before long you will have many quotes for your story.


I really do enjoy how easy it is to create a news story nowadays.  But I am also concerned about how quick information is on the Internet before facts are made available.  It appears that many major news stories are mere assumptions until proven otherwise.

Embed YouTube Videos, Add Resource Links - Nicholl McGuire Media

Do you have numerous blogs, websites, classified ads, auction sites, and more? Nicholl McGuire Media assists those who need YouTube content embedded or linked on all their web pages.  Although this is a simple task, it can be overwhelming for those who are busy with other things and haven't gotten around to embedding videos or sharing links.  So if you need this service, don't hesitate to contact us!

On Difficult Customers

Sometimes people express interest in writing a book, getting a slideshow created, or need other tasks completed by Nicholl McGuire Media. Some have no idea where to begin or how much things will cost when they approach us.  As a business owner or individual providing a service, you will need to share what you can do upfront and how much things might cost.  It will be up to the potential customer to make a decision on how important the service might be to them.  Dollars and cents usually determine the need for most clients.

I will tell you from personal experience, there will be some individuals who will want something but are unwilling to pay much for it.  Most businesses will not over deliver, time and money dictates this.  Sometimes Nicholl McGuire Media will have busy time periods; therefore, we have to move along to the next client especially if an individual might be acting in ways that are unreasonable or desire something for nothing, so to speak.

When it comes to challenging business relationships, it isn't always a customer not wanting to do business because of this issue or that one, but it also works the other way around as well.  Nicholl McGuire Media refuses business partnerships that show early warning signs an individual or group might be difficult to work with.  Some might include: tardiness to appointments without excuse, late payments, negative comments about pricing, bad-mouthing, requests that go beyond what is being paid for/offered, morally offensive services, negative reputation with many, etc.  

Challenging customers will always be around, but business people don't always deal with them.  We tend to treat some just like we do our toxic relatives, we bless them and move on.

When They Needed Resumes Written

He never had a resume and needed one, a student that found out he was going to be a father for the second time.  So after an hour interview and some website research, Nicholl McGuire Media helped accomplish the young man's goal.  He walked away with a great resume.  In time, it was reported that he had found a job.


Fresh out of high school and short on time to move out of his parents home, Nicholl McGuire Media created a resume for a young person with little work experience.  With the resume and an impressive interview, the worker landed not one but two jobs.

Having had various resumes over the years, it was time once again to update his resume, the professional with two children asked Nicholl McGuire Media for help.  With years of military experience and jobs in the hospitality industry, the challenge was tying everything together in a way that would help him get a job as a manager in yet another position related to travel.  One resume and two interviews later, the busy father received a job offer.

These are just a few examples of people who needed a resume and Nicholl McGuire Media delivered. In the end, besides a great resume, an exceptional sales presentation of one's worth and an inside connection also helps get the job seeker employment!

Need a Website Content Writer? Nicholl McGuire Articles

Relationships, family, business, and spirituality are the subject categories I write about.  Individuals and businesses who need thought-provoking, keyword rich articles enlist my article writing services. From problem solution to how-to types of content, I write what comes to mind, conduct any necessary research and deliver within the day or week depending on how much content is expected from my clients.


Clients who pay a nominal fee per page are given original pieces that haven't ever been printed on the Internet. I have been online writing books, blogs, articles, reviews, and more since 2007 and prior to that writing eBay and Amazon product descriptions for my online businesses.
