How do you get the word out about your product or service? Is it Coffee, Vitamins, Energy Drinks or your Radio Show? How do you let everyone know this great idea you have? Do you have the next big network Marketing Item? Are you the only Network Marketing company with Coffee? How do you discuss an event in your life? The launch of something new, updated blogs, or articles? The New House or new position in a company? By writing! There are lots of places on the internet to write that will give you access to hundreds or thousands of people.
One thing you can do is write articles like this one. There are literally hundreds of places that will post original articles and many of them will post them for free. These virtual magazines offer content on virtually any subject. For a small fee you can pay a service to post the articles for you with hundreds of these virtual magazines. This gives you a big bang for you buck since each of these posting have the potential of reaching different people. A word of caution: many of these sites have strict rules about posting. Often there are restrictions as far as what you can put in an article. Also many of them put articles through a review process which can take several days.
Blogging is another great way to communicate in the virtual world. Blogs can be about almost anything. Blogging sites are usually less restrictive than virtual magazines sites. Generally blogs can be shorter and have more personal information than is sometimes allowed with a virtual magazine. If you do a web search for "starting a blog" you will get lot of articles about how to blog as well as places where you can start a blog.
The bottom is that you shouldn't let this opportunity to communicate with potential customers, collaborators, or even just friends pass you by. You have to start somewhere. For those who nervous about writing, starting with blogging is probably the best. It is easy to set up and does not have to be structured in any way. From there you can start writing longer, more structured pieces. Write about something that interests you. Write about something that happened in your life that made a profound difference in the path you took. Write about something you would like to do. Basically it doesn't matter what you write about as long as you enjoy the process!
Recipe for Trouble:Documentation (or Lack Thereof)
We all like to trust people and we would like really be much better of if people always did what they said they would do. But we all know that this is not always the case. If you are a business owner, you can find yourself in deep trouble if you do not document.
Recipe for Trouble: IT
Depending on how dependent your company is on computers, IT (or information technology) can be your biggest ally or the biggest thorn in your side. While people tend to refer to IT for anything that involves computers, information technology can encompass a very large variety of business needs from servers to websites. There is no one-size-fits-all IT professional any more than there is a one size fits all employee of any type.
Water is Water Right? Wrong!
We all know that we should probably be drinking more water. We have all heard the health benefits staying hydrated. But we get busy and we forget to drink. So we stop by the drinking fountain and take a quick sip or hit the office water cooler and we think we are getting the hydration we need. But hydration is not even enough. We also need the proper trace minerals.
