While many online marketers are enthusiastically telling others to join SL, this post offers a contrary opinion (often my favorite kind of opinion!). I have also heard from some professionals who tried SL and did not find it to be a great business driver. I believe the message here as with all marketing… Continue

Recession Hat Tricks
If you say it enough, does it make it true? We tried hard not to use the "R" word. But as we watched the housing market tank, our neighbors losing their homes and jobs and teary eyed stories on Good Morning America there was just no denying it - the US is in a recession.

Well some marketers simply make lemonade out of lemons. We're in a… Continue

Build It and They Will Come
They only way you will have buyers beating a path to your door by "Simply Building It" is to have them come to your door first.
When delivering a product or service to the person making the purchasing decision you must make sure the the product actually meets NEEDs, address Wants and adequately controls their expectations.
This is accomplished by taking time to listen to them before you take the time and effort to "Build it".
