Meet James Richmond

Blog Tips: Meet James Richmond

Today I decided that instead of being all serious and all about business, I thought I would have a little fun with my video editing software (at James Richmond’s expense!). In all seriousness, James works harder than any blogger I know and we are friends (maybe not after the video!) so I hope he enjoys my little spoof of him.
That was a cameo appearance by my 5yr old daughter (Avery) telling James to take a break (so the rest…

Can You Do It All Yourself?

Blog Tips: Can You Do It All Yourself?

Over the last couple of days, I have had a few discussions with bloggers that are having a problem getting past a certain point in there sites’ progress. Some are wrestling 2 jobs and a home while trying to do every aspect of their online business, with no outsourcing.
I am lucky enough to be able to internet market as a full time job, so I work from home. But I worked hard to get here, really hard. Most days…

The question is, can negative publicity help you? It certainly can!
I have apparently gained a new fan that thinks that by telling people I don’t know what I am talking about, that I have claimed to “make you rich” here on my site, and…

Social Media Interview: Mike Stenger

Blog Tips: Social Media Interview: Mike Stenger

This is an interview I did with Mike Stenger about using social media. Mike has a great social media blog and is always available to answer questions on Twitter. Take a look at the Q&A I had with Mike:

Colleagues or Competition

Blog Tips: Colleagues or Competition

The timing of this video couldn’t be better. I wake up this morning after recording the video for this post last night to find the bottom feeders are out. So, rather than fall for the bait and give in to the negativity, I will just ignore the bait and move on in the same path I was already on!
Basically, think of the competition as a colleague and try to network and learn from them. There is always room to…

Email Marketing: The Spawn Of Satan!

Blog Tips: Email Marketing: The Spawn Of Satan!

This is sort of a follow up to my post yesterday on negativity reflecting your income, but this time I get more specific about the negativity. Email marketing is a very powerful tool for marketing your products, as well as affiliate products.
In the video I talk about how “some” bloggers frown on email marketing, and even went so far as to call it spam.
So, are there email marketers out there that take advantage of building a list? Of…
