Jim Cockrum, the author of the best selling “The Secret Sales Machine hiding on Ebay” has stumbled upon another wide open market… Brick and Mortar businesses. Here’s how he puts it as he opens a new resource. It all came about when I started noticing a trend locally. Businesses in my hometown were seeking me [...]

Here’s more on the NON Credit Crisis. NFIB’s monthly member survey says there’s very negligible damage thus far. Other data indicate the economy’s in better shape than during a similar crunch in 2001. According to the NFIB’s survey, the No. 1 issue among small business owners is inflation. Of those surveyed, 18 percent said rising [...]

If the financial news from every TV, Radio, and Newspaper is selling “Disaster” and people are counting every penny, is it possible to actually SELL MORE? *It depends on your marketing… and what your product is. *If you’re selling shelf stable food like this company, you’d say “Stock Up!

We’ll take a break from the work at home scene to rant about that Bogus “Bailout”… that corporate welfare for the cufflink set, those histrionic theatrics from Barney “Enron” Frank about having to save America when he’s the one who stopped every possible attempt to head off this crisis while it was still in the making.

I used to be part of a team that ran trade shows for MLMers. It was before the Internet was really hot. I did some early work talking about the use of the internet for sales letters back then before everybody was a promise the sky do it yourself copywriter. One thing we didn’t have [...]

This is from James Jones and is his product. I always like his products and perhaps you will too. It’s not too early to start thinking about Christmas and how you can make some extra money offering a fun product that parents (and others) will want to give to their children. With the arrival of [...]

Is Telecommuting Risky? That’s a good question.  If you’re a telecommuter, are you “out of sight and out of mind”? Could you be more likely to “get the axe”. Obviously if you’re working for a company with many telecommuters like Arise, Working Solutions, or Alpine Access, your job is their “bread and butter”. If your [...]
