I was looking at some sources for a new home office chair. A vendor who likes my blog asked me to write a few words about his site and post a link. They wanted me to write about their computer chairs. Normally, I’d buy an item like this locally. I’m just too darn cheap [...]

Recently Markus Allen interviewed me and we discussed the benefits of a free test drive of his “Marketing Junkies Inner Circle”… Here’s the video!

As a member of the Marketing Junkies Inner Circle myself, and as someone who has never earned a cent referring people there, I’d like to offer [...]

Is Remote access only for Geeks?
I hate nothing more than being away from my home office and finding I’ve left a critical spreadsheet or document half way around the country.
Sure, I can get it emailed but that just wastes time and if the file’s too big odds are it gets rejected.
I’ve been a ‘road warrior’ for 5 years now [...]

Check out the video about why you need to check out the Marketing Junkies Free 17 Day Inner Circle Membership.

A friend of mine who works at a “brick and mortar” automobile dealer has a unique job – he’s in charge of their online sales. Who’d have thought a local dealership in the “middle of nowhere” would have a sales person who is supposed to spend 100% of his time selling online?

Reuters had an interesting story about a guy who makes $85,000 per year selling ad space on a T Shirt!
His business is called, appropriately, IWearYourShirt.com. And that $85,000 per year has a nice ring to it. Think you could do something like this?
When you look at his pricing (no more than $365 per day) it’s [...]

I haven’t been to Squidoo in ages. But it keeps sending me a check for “royalties” monthly… not much but, hey, every little bit helps.
In fact, one of my pages at Squidoo is number 6 on Google for it’s search term. Pretty good huh!
