Posing Professional You’re not really getting a fair story on this because I wrote so much during the honeymoon phase of the job and not over the past 4 months, where my enthusiasm and eagerness slowly dissipated with every HTML/ technical writing/ Quickbooks assignment I completed. I was floundering. I hated that position. I hated it so much, I had to leave the house before I really woke up and was getting there 45 minutes early. The last month, I spent 60% of the day staring at HTML files that made no sense to me, or trying to eloquently explain a universal e-commerce tool that I didn’t understand. I spent about an hour a day on marketing blogs trying to teach myself B2B marketing and I’ll admit, I spent probably a total of an hour a day IMing with a co-worker about how unfit we were for our positions. http://posingprofessional.blogspot.com/

Do we publish less often? I stopped answering [comments] individually. http://bloggingwithoutablog.com/the-battle-over-comments-part-2/ The Battle Over Comments – Part 2 | Blogging Without A Blog

4. Add Ping Services – You probably won’t have to do this, but when I installed my blog there were no ping services in the Options >> Writing section of my WordPress admin panel. Adding ping services means that you can send trackbacks to other blogs which lets them know when you link to their posts. It also gets your site listed in Technorati and other blog aggregation services. 5. 24 Things I Do When Launching a New Blog http://www.viperchill.com/launching-new-blog/

It was not too long ago that I returned from a holiday road trip to find a gift parcel from a friend in the States. The gift was Stephen King’s brilliant publication “ On Writing .” I took to digging into the book right away. King remains one of the most disciplined workers in this business, so his information and insight proved very valuable to me.

Does Your Copy Need a Makeover? « i. karumbah creative matters b Did you define a specific audience before planning your project and writing the copy? Did you consider your target audience’s age, urgent concerns, cultural references, and peripheral interests when writing the copy? Does your copy pass the Target Test? Did you research whether your target audience regularly uses the medium or media you’ve chosen to reach them? Even the most powerfully written copy won’t hit its mark unless you aim it carefully at your target.

http://garyvaynerchuk.com/ Gary Vaynerchuk Stop doing shit you hate- The web allows for you to start businesses at such a low cost = HUSTLE There is no such thing as social media - Watch. What are your thoughts on this logic? I hate to call out OWN, I mean no one has done it better than Oprah, that said this Tweet just embodies EVERYTHING that is wrong with the way Corporate America and most businesses and brands for that matter are handling Social sites, it is 2012, it has to STOP, has to.

creative communication Writing Roads, professional copywriting f http://www.writingroads.com/index.php I've never forgotten that lesson. As I've grown my business, I've sought the brilliance of people outside my expertise - people that can help me, that I can trust, that know more than me. And, I've realized that I've become that person to others. A realization that's morphed quickly into a mission to support other people in growing their businesses by helping them learn about and do the things I can do: writing, blogging, social media, real/personal relationship 'marketing' (ie. growing your business by being authentically you).
