Videos From Seth Godin & Guy Kawasaki
You know both of these guys, right? Both are master marketing minds who have written many best-selling books, and who speak regularly to large audiences about what they know. Sure, you can buy their books online, but it’s not often that you get a chance to see them speak live. I know I never have yet. But did you know that with the power of online video, you can watch hours and hours of video archive of them online, for free? This is good stuff. Here’s a nice... Read More »
How Does Jim Kukral Make Money? I Create Opportunities!
I get asked this question A LOT! Recently, I was asked this directly by Joel Comm on the Las Vegas tram ride to dinner after day 1 of the Blogworld Expo.

Online Success Comes To Those That Take It, Not Wait For It

Follow The Leader To Online Success
Another reason why I love BUMPzee… A new blog that I like was submitted to my community today that I would not have otherwise known about. The blog is called Wagerank, and in particular, this post caught my eye. It talks about how it’s ok to follow the leader.

I’m getting about 10 new blog entries a day now into the BUMPzee How to be successful online community I am managing. I would say that 8 out of 10 that are submitted get included while the others get rejected because they are junk blogs full of Agloco promotions, or every blog post is written specifically to drive clicks to a “get rich quick” product. Look, my version of “how to be successful online” DOES NOT include Agloco and get rich quick... Read More »
