Are The Days Of Guest Blogging Gone Forever ?

Are You Thinking About Writing Guest Blog Post Or Accepting Guest Blog Post?

Over the years I have accepted tons of guest post from writers. I did it because I wanted to provide more value to my blog. It was a win/win situation. I got fresh content and the writer got a backlink and exposure.

Forget about Plan B!

Guest Post

Have you ever started a new business opportunity and thought you’d “kick the tyres”, “try it and see”, “Do it for 2 months to see how it went” and it didn’t matter if it didn’t work anyway because you could always fall back on “plan b” any how? Did it work? No? Surprise surprise. If you want a business venture to really work, you need to forget about Plan B!

Before you start any new business venture you should really do your due diligence on it which is a whole other blog post but includes things such as, the age of the company, the founders/directors of the company, what the product is (and especially to make sure there IS a product), the payment plan, what leaders are also involved in it and a whole lot more.

Once you have decided it is worth your while however and you have put your money where your mouth is – you then need to take massive action, remain focused and cut off all your escape routes, in other words, forget about plan B! By this I don’t mean give your notice in to your job straight away unless you have enough financial cushion to last you for at least a year or more and even then, this puts additional stress on your new business working too quickly. However, if you have other sidelines going on, other mlms that take time or money to promote them, just leave them to one side. [Read more…] about Forget about Plan B!

Forward Thinking for Businesses

Guest Post

Most people think that the business world moves pretty slowly—that once it finds a strategy that works, it sticks with it until it is absolutely forced to move on. Why else would most radio commercials be so lame? The truth, however, is that the business world—particularly the marketing sector—moves at a truly rapid pace. Every day there are new techniques and strategies being developed to help entrepreneurs and corporations improve their bottom lines.

One example of this innovation is how quickly businesses big and small are adopting video as a means of promoting their products and projects. The True car Youtube channel is a great example of this. They use the power of video to show you what other people in your local area have and are paying for vehicles. This will help you make sure that you aren’t overpaying for the car that you want to buy. They also accept video based reviews of buying experiences as a way to help consumers figure out where to shop for their next automobiles. Sure, this would be easy enough to do in a press release or with articles, but True Car understands that video adds a personal touch that can’t be obtained through basic text on a page.
