Ever wonder how you can build a relationship with your website visitors? If not, you should be.

Fact: People buy from people they trust. Building a rapport with your visitors is a sure fire way to turn that visitor into a customer. It's not as difficult as it sounds. I don't mean getting into a personal first name basis with every one of your visitors. That's impossible. But there are ways of building rapport and trust with your visitors. As someone doing business online, this is absolutely vital.

I've written in the past about ways to ...

The wife and I decided to spend the weekend in Pismo Beach this Memorial Day weekend. I've been super busy with work lately and I really needed this break! That has also been the reason I haven't been posting as much as I would like.

Even though I am out of town, I still will spend an hour or so each day working. That's the great thing about running businesses that operates online. You can work from basically anywhere. With a laptop and an internet connection, you're office is wherever you are. Right now I am ...

Weak US Dollar = Opportunity

It's no secret that the US economy is slowing down. Oil (gas) prices, defaulting mortgage loans and employer cutbacks are causing Americans to stop and think before they go splurge on some new eBook (or whatever) online.

How can you take advantage of the weak dollar? There are several ways. For example, the export business isn't doing so bad. Because foreign money now gets them more for the the same, they are ordering more than ever. Ports along the west coast have a 6 week wait for container space!

But since we all want to make our money ...

Guide to Industry Networking - Entirely Online - Part Two

Posted on May 9, 2008 - 6:12 PM Comments (0)

In my last post about networking entirely online I spoke about the value of various forums that were out there and how valuable they were. While that is an excellent resource it is not the sort of method I like to use when trying to network online. I am a little more bold and I try to get in direct contact with someone.

Everyone knows that networking is a huge part of success in business. With the right contacts, practically anyone can seem like a superstar businessman. In reality, they just have a deep rolodex. The ability to network is a skill that everyone has to be able to get the hang of (if you want to be in business online).

Not everyone has the money to attend those expensive seminars that are held all around the country, many times per year. It might not be a financial setback either. A lot of people, especially "noob's", lack the confidence to get any ...

Twitter - I Jumped On The Bandwagon...

Posted on May 2, 2008 - 5:49 PM Comments (0)

With everyone always yapping and blogging about Twitter, I decided to create a profile and see what all the hype is about. Honestly, I don't see it as being as "friendly" as Groovr (disclosure: I did work for Groovr for some time) so I don't get what all the fuss is about.

I've started following a few people and feel like I've got the hang of it. I will slowly add more people as I continue to navigate the Twitter sea. You can find me on twitter here.

There has been some rumblings this week about ...
