So I figured since I wrote a post all about guest posting and why it’s a great promotional strategy… I figured I might better follow that up with a few handy do’s and don’ts for all of you out there who are a bit impulsive and want to jump in head first. (And don’t try to deny it either!) It all sounds pretty simple in theory- you drop a line at handful of high...
Your Writing Career: Things to Consider for Budding Entrepreneurs
Y
This is a guest post by Talbot Derwood, with a few cold hard facts when it comes to you and launching an entrepreneurial career as a freelance writer. Since I’m a ‘ghostblogger’ myself, I thought this a great topic to explore, as I firmly believe that if you can write worth a lick, you can get paid for it if you’re hungry enough.

Guest Posting- Are You In or Are You Out?
G
Photo by Tsururadio So, it’s no secret I’ve been on a bit of a guest posting kick the last several months, and it was renewed with even more vigour this past week when several guest posts I had recently submitted went live.

If you’ve been observing the online business community these past few years, you immediately notice that the power of the Internet has been spreading like wildfire when it comes to entrepreneurs and small business owners getting their ‘message’ out to the...
List building- the Life Blood of a Web-Based Entrepreneur… ‘Fo Schizzle’!
L
People tell me all the time that they waste so much writing paper because of the many lists that they have to make. Some folks, for example, need reams and reams of note paper plus different-sized and colored Post-Its to keep track of all the things that they do every day.

Photo by Dustin Diaz First up- a fracken disclaimer because you know I need one: I am NOT a doctor, a psychologist, or any other thing that ends in “ist”. So take whatever I say next with a grain of salt, not as gospel truth. Kay? They say that there’s a difference between hearing and listening.

Photo by Fire Horse Leo First of all, let’s square away a few facts. Do you own a small business? Are you an up-and-coming entrepreneur? Are you a freelancer? Are you a blogger?
