Blogs to Grow Your Bank Balance

Where is the blog that is all about your business and the choice you made this morning, soon after getting out of bed? It’s here and we at the Duct Tape Marketing Channels wish to have a word with you: Focus.

Every day when you arise there are two basic choices open to you: Go to the beach. Go to work. If you choose work, then all actions from that point on for the day need to advance your business and the reasons why you chose work over beach.

This is what you find every day at this blog and on the other eight channels at the top of this blog page. This one, we suggest, is as essential as any of your daily habits that make you the great talent and income generator that you are. Shower, coffee, morning stretching or aerobics, business clothes, and high priority e-mail—all the same as checking in with this blog to see what we have done for, created for you, or synthesized for you.

We assume you know this. Maybe today is the first time you’ve seen this blog. Maybe today is the first time you realized that there is no money in wasting your time surfing the Internet. (That’s beach activity—surfing, along with other activities that tap into those saved up vacation dollars.)

This reality came to us, again, in recent weeks when we spotted a new study, conducted by Digital Marketing Services, Inc., cited in eMarketer, that find blogs are more likely to deal with personal matters than politics or current events, and nearly 50% of bloggers see the activity as a form of therapy. It tells us blogs are more likely to be about friends, family and personal interests.

It that’s what you are looking for, it’s not here. If you are running a small business or looking for every advantage possible to start or expand your business, this is the blog to keep on your RSS feeder. New to RSS as well? Within this blog are several references on RSS, what about it, how to put it on your desk top in 5 minutes or less and let it feed you relevant information while you focus on your customers and your work.

Finally, let’s be clear about who you are and what we mean by small business. Anything that fits within the Small Business Administration scope of service is what we address. For most of you, with fewer than 500 employees, that’s you. Look closer. Most of the people commenting on this blog and sending email to us are running businesses with fewer than 50 employees. In fact, millions of businesses are about that size.

Does this work for middle-size and larger businesses? Absolutely, if they want to look at the entrepreneurial spirit and innovation teams within their businesses. The laws and advantages of smaller business are at work there. They just have to remember where they came from and how much fun it all was before things got big and bureaucratic.

That’s it. Go to work. Pluck from any one of the Duct Tape Marketing Blog Channels one idea or marketing reminder for this week. You can find a dozen or more great, practical, immediately possible ideas a week, across the nine blogs in the Channels. Try it. Work it. Keep at it. Profit from it. Pay yourself a bonus from the additional income and make a list of all the things you want to do for the days you choose “beach” instead of work.

Comments

In Personal Brilliance I write about developing the Habit of Innovation. Duct Tape Marketing is certainly one of my daily habits. A few words about Focus, one of the four catalysts to personal brilliance:

Focus, for most people, means a laser beam like, tight attention on the task at hand like the teenager with a Gameboy. The successful entrepreneur though possesses a 360-degree focus. This is an open focus. More like a spotlight that starts out with a narrow beam but spreads out to cover a larger area. We can’t be so tightly focused that we miss opportunities for good solutions. This presents a paradox – How can we “focus” when we are actually opening up to more input? Well, that’s what makes you brilliant.

Thanks Georgia for highlighting this critical piece of the puzzle.

Two new studies show why some people are more attractive for members of the opposite sex than others.

The University of Florida, Florida State University found that physically attractive people almost instantly attract the attention of the interlocutor, sobesednitsy with them, literally, it is difficult to make eye. This conclusion was reached by a series of psychological experiments, which were determined by the people who believe in sending the first seconds after the acquaintance. Here, a curious feature: single, unmarried experimental preferred to look at the guys, beauty opposite sex, and family, people most often by representatives of their sex.

The authors believe that this feature developed a behavior as a result of the evolution: a man trying to find a decent pair to acquire offspring. If this is resolved, he wondered potential rivals. Detailed information about this magazine will be published Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.

In turn, a joint study of the Rockefeller University, Rockefeller University and Duke University, Duke University in North Carolina revealed that women are perceived differently by men smell. During experiments studied the perception of women one of the ingredients of male pheromone-androstenona smell, which is contained in urine or sweat.

The results were startling: women are part of this repugnant odor, and the other part is very attractive, resembling the smell of vanilla, and the third group have not felt any smell. The authors argue that the reason is that the differences in the receptor responsible for the olfactory system, from different people are different.

It has long been proven that mammals (including human) odor is one way of attracting the attention of representatives of the opposite sex. A detailed article about the journal Nature will publish.

Once a food allergy is determined the doctor will decide on the best course of action and whether treatment is needed. Once you know what your allergy is it becomes much easier to deal with.

The person is slowly getting used to cars, mostly to the news, which are tied with the past. Either it is its manufacturer or it is its design but they have something in common. Nowdays, as concerns "alived" cars, they are mostly sport cars. The "Fathers" of today?s followers was somehow special for their age, they had something inside themselves what is alived to this times. Why had it been constructing cars which have their rootes in 50-ties, 60 –ties and 70 – ties. People know how to honour this jewel which survives even 50 years and therefore these cars are so exceptional. What do the years 1968-1973 and 2006 have in common? The only one thing, the collocation Opel GT!
