In Conversation: Kerry Scott 

In today's episode I sit down with Kerry Scott, an unassuming, but very badass young lady from North Carolina.  Besides coaching a youth team at Triangle Rock Club, Kerry is a crusher.  And she's not ashamed to "spray" a little.  And you all know that I'm definitely not afraid to spray, and I appreciate it when others buck the norm.   I've spent time in North Carolina, and I know that the south and east in particular can sometimes be a place where you're encouraged not to "spray", and I think that is often unfortunate.  I agree that just puffing up to talk about yourself isn't helpful to anyone, but there is a fine line between spray and pride, and I think that Kerry did a beautiful job navigating that with the ascent of her first 14a, Proper Soul. We talk about why she put it out there, and what that's meant to her.  We also talk about her support system, and how important it is to have that. Decide for yourself what's appropriate, but don't let others tell you not to be proud of yourself. And damn it, tell the world about it if that's what you want to do.

Evernote

Direct link to this post: http://www.thegenealogyprofessional.com/Kerry-Scott We are changing it up for this episode of The Genealogy Professional podcast. Instead of talking with a professional genealogist about running a genealogy business, our featured guest, professional genealogist and author Kerry Scott, talks about her new book, How to Use Evernote for Genealogy.  Evernote is a well-known productivity tool and Kerry will tell us how it can be used to boost genealogy research efficiency.Bio – Kerry ScottKerry Scott used to be a Human Resources executive. She finally realized she liked dead people better, so now she’s a genealogist. She’s obsessed with using technology to become a more efficient family historian, and she’s spent years developing tools and techniques to make Evernote work for both beginning and expert genealogists. Kerry teaches at Family Tree University, and writes an award-winning genealogy blog, Clue Wagon. Her roots are in the Midwest, but she now lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico.Book SummaryHarness the powerful, timesaving organization features of Evernote‘s free software and mobile apps to manage your genealogy research. How to Use Evernote for Genealogy explains how to organize all kinds of genealogy clues–from notes and e-mails to vital records and audio files–so the information is easily searchable, accessible on any device, and automatically backed up in the cloud. Step-by-step instructions show you how to organize research materials, analyze research clues, collaborate with cousins, and share your family history.Publication Info  Title: How to Use Evernote for Genealogy Publisher: Family Tree University (November 16, 2015) Paperback: 240 pages. How to Use Evernote for Genealogy is available for purchase from Amazon.com and other booksellers.The InterviewThis interview is a little bit different from what is usually done on the podcast. Instead of focusing on a genealogy professional, we instead focus on a resource – Evernote. Author Kerry Scott describes talks about her book How to Use Evernote for Genealogy. In this interview Kerry Scott describes some of her favorite tips and techniques that can make Evernote a go-to tool for professional genealogists. Find out the benefits of sharing notes and notebooks with clients, what makes Evernote’s search functions so beneficial to genealogists, and how Evernote camera captures documents using your mobile device. Kerry also describes her journey of writing this book – how long it took to write the book, how she organized it to get started and what her greatest fears were.Action ItemThis is a really simple and obvious action item for this episode. Kerry Scott gave excellent insight into Evernote. Evernote is a FREE tool. Your action item this week is to check it out. Download it on your phone or computer and see what it can do for you. It’s free so trying it out doesn’t cost you anything but time. See if you can use Evernote to make you more productive and efficient.NewsThe deadline for speaker submissions to the 2017 National Genealogical Society Family History Conference is coming up on April 1st, 2016. Visit www.ngsgenealogy.org for more information. In TGP news, in the last episode I mentioned that registration was open for the Mastermind groups that I am offering. I wanted to let you know that both groups have sold out. So unfortunately it’s too late to sign up for them. However, I will be offering two specialized masterminds – one for bloggers and one for public speakers. These will be shorter – not full 12 month masterminds like the others. I’ll also be bringing back my popular Goals workshop. That’s a onetime 3-hour workshop that helps you really focus in on your priorities and accomplishing your goals. So keep your eye on the website later in March for info about all of that. We also have a new mailing list and private Facebook group. The group is free and it’s a place where you can talk about the action items from the show and ask questions. There’s one hitch though. In order to get into the group you have to sign up for the mailing list on TheGenealogyProfessional.com website. Once you sign up you’ll be sent a link for the Facebook page. So be sure to check that out. I’ll be traveling and appearing at some conferences in the coming months. On March 10th I’ll be presenting the marketing segment at the Forensic Genealogy Institute in San Antonio, Texas. If you’re going to be there be sure to stop me and say hello. On March 19th I’ll be presenting my Goals Workshop to the members of the New England Chapter of the Association of Professional Genealogists. And on April 16th I’ll be presenting a genealogy talk at the Massachusetts Genealogical Council seminar in Marlborough, Massachusetts. If you are in New England, be sure to check that one out because CeCe Moore will be presenting a full day of DNA classes as part of the MGC seminar.
