Content Recap
Things have been pretty busy over at Small Business Marketing and Branding where I finally had a chance to knuckle down and produce some nice “Yaro style” articles for my newest blog, including:
- How To Throw Away $500
If you appreciate learning from other people’s mistakes then this article offers a good lesson on how not to spend your marketing dollars. I recount my story from the early days of BetterEdit.com when I wasted $500 on a not so good sponsorship promotion. - How to Market Your Local Business on the Internet
Will Swayne popped by offering this very practical article on using the web to market a local business. This was a very well received article judging by the comments left. - Are You Taking Advantage Of All Your Opportunities?
On a whim I recently tested a new method to make money from my blogs using the services of Text Link Ads to sell text links. It’s been quite successful and prompted me to ask whether you are taking advantage of all your opportunities. This article includes four dot-point suggestions which should get you hunting for opportunities in your business. - How Would You Spend A $1000 Marketing Budget?
I asked my readers this question and we got some good answers from both online and offline business owners. - Can’t Think Of An Original Business Idea?
If you are stuck to find a business idea you think will work perhaps this article will stir some creative juices in you. - Listening To Word Of Mouth Marketing On The Street
A few weeks ago I was out and about down in Melbourne where I did some word-of-mouth research. Anita Campbell was so impressed with the topic of this article that she featured it at the start of one of her Small Business Trends radio shows. - What Is Your Position In The Marketplace?
This article is all about positioning. I used my recent work positioning myself as the “Blog Traffic King” as an example and asked you how you position yourself and your business. - How To Deal With People and Leverage Your Networks
I recounted my first meeting with a CEO and offered some tips on leveraging your networks to help grow your business.
