This is a guest post with some tips and pointers on managing and writing for your social business profiles. Everyone has differing opinions on the best way to use social media platforms of course. However I think this post gives some solid advice you’d be wise to consider implementing, if you don’t already. Now for the uber cool part. This post comes courtesy of Liberty- Belle Howard...
This is a guest post contributed by Adam Powers on Miz Snook-ay Snook-ay. Why would you want to read such a post you ask? Well… barring the inevitable “BECAUSE I SAID SO” shout, I recommend you read it because you might just learn a thing or two about growing a brand. People like Snooki don’t just “fall into” fame and build loyal followers (well… at least...
This is a guest post by an old buddy named Nick Thacker. Since I’m all about leverage and teaching yourself to work smarter (not harder) I thought this was a great fit for BGB readers. And since this blog is about biz and branding… well how could I resist?! So cop a squat, whip out your granny glasses, and get to readin’. And when you’re done, be sure to drop a thought in...
Howdy dahling BGB’er. Hope you had a fabulous New Year and 2012 has started with an appropriate bang. This is a guest post contributed by Chris Farnell on why pitching a client is similar to a J.O.B. interview… and then again… why it isn’t! He makes several good points, with the very last point being my love-hate favorite. 😉 How about you? Got ideas on ways a pitching a...

You know the drill… make him feel warm and fuzzy in the comments below, and if you’ve got a question- ask it! Here’s how the conversation goes. “Oh hey. I’d...
This is another guest post by Chris Hoole on the merits of blogging, when done in the right way. Make him feel welcome by dropping any questions or thoughts in the comment area below this post. 🙂 Ah, the fresh invigorating virtual air of the blogo-shpere; the Internet equivalent of a walk in the country. Or is it? Blogging, like any other Internet phenomenon began life as innocent past-time...
This is a guest post by Danny Iny, and since I’m a big fan of references to pop culture on BGB, and drawing parallels between them for your biz, Danny sweet-talked his way into writing for you guys. 😉 No really it’s just a damn good post, no sweet talking required. Let’s make him feel welcome by starting a bit ‘o conversation shall we? So many things happen on Wisteria...
Hey there peeps. Happy Monday! I actually was tied up most of the weekend attending an Internet Marketing seminar here in Orlando, at the invitation of Ken McArthur to be an expert panelist. (So honored by the way!) To tell you a bit about it, I decide to create a quick video (gasp!) and share my thoughts. (I know, you’re still reeling over the fact I’ve done another video...
This is another guest post by dear James. I thought it suitable as we discussed colors and branding earlier in the week. Now James will talk to you about designing a killer poster that can then be printed out and used shamelessly as a wicked promo tool for your biz. And incidentally, colors happen play a huge role in their creation! 😉 If you’re a person who enjoys designing posters, you can...
