Blogcritics: How To Build & Sell Your Web Business For Millions

By • August 29, 2008 • Technorati • 5 Comments

Eric Olsen recently sold his Blogcritics.org to Technorati. Here’s a conversation I had with him about the sale. Eric is a dynamic individual who, by his own admission, failed “many times” with projects and businesses over his years on this planet.

Sounds like a serial entrepreneur, doesn’t it? This is a great reminder to all of us to keep trying and to get back up on the horse!

So now, here we find Eric with a sale of his “baby” to Technorati. We talk about the sale and about how he feels about it. Perhaps you’ve always wanted to do what Eric did? Listen to this podcast for some insight into how he did it and how you could do it too.

Business Around A Lifestyle

The world changed on 9/11 in so many different ways. Since that day, there has been a major shift happening in the way people think and live their lives. Sure, many people still chase the dollar as their ultimate goal. However, many more people have begun to realize that the world could, well, end tomorrow.

That's why people are choosing to pursue a business around a lifestyle, instead of a lifestyle controlled by their business. It makes sense, right? If the world was going to end tomorrow, would you still try to live your life in a way you never wanted to?

Take a look around you and you'll see that this shift to becoming a lifestyle entrepreneur is being adopted by more and more people every day. Some of those people are falling into it because they have been laid off from their jobs and are literally forced into it. Some of those people just figure out a way to make it happen because of the "end of the world" thinking mentioned above.
