Yes Sean,

Leave it up I have seen far worse. It let’s people, within the group, see the reality of how much sweat and tears goes into keeping this group alive. I don’t think it will tear up any trees in most member’s heads though. Not that they are bad people it’s just human bloody nature. We are lazy mammals, and I include myself in that.

But…[Read more]

It doesn’t sound like anger to me, Sean.

Leave it up. 🙂

Sean,

As raised in another recent thread (by Julia Rotgers), a lot of hard dedicated and targetted work over a period of months would be required. Effort require to get a 1000 subscribers may well have to be similar to the levels of action, you yourself had to take when you submitted all of those many, many ezine articles in the past.

I don’t,…[Read more]

Hey Bruce,

That should give you a break from PreneurPal then…lol..although the input to this group might therefore drop somewhat!

Good luck with the move my friend. It can be a stressful time.

Sean,

I will be making initial preparations for my first official speech, that I will be giving to a Speaking club I have joined. It is only going to be 5 minutes long, but that is a lot longer than it seems when one is stood up in front of a bunch of people who, while very supportive, are also analyzing in order to provide feedback on my effort.…[Read more]

How do you keep the sand and salt out of your computer? 😉

Days like that, Sean, are wonderful.

They’re anchors in the storm of life.

They’re monuments to God’s faithfulness that we can look back to when we’re struggling.

I can see, from re-visiting these posts, how easily I forget what I’ve suggested to other people.

Often, I feel like I’m living in two parallel lives.

There’s the one where I’m doing all the things that I want to do, and then there’s the one where everything changes almost as soon as I get out of bed. LOL

In order to make 80/20 work in the way…[Read more]

Great insight, Julia.

I like the idea of trying to create more content than I consume.

One thing I’ve noticed is that the more I read, the more I want to write.

This has been particularly frustrating in the day job because there I’m reading constantly, trying to stay up on what’s happening on the Internet, all the while working with no budget,…[Read more]

Getting ready to move in a couple of days.

I don’t have much stuff. Everything will fit into a van, but the main thing is that I won’t have an Internet connection for a couple of weeks.

I’ll have to do everything online in the office (day job).

On the one hand, I’m looking forward to that.

No TV, no Internet, and even the cellphone won’t work…[Read more]

Something that I think most people have missed is that Google, Facebook, YouTube – all platforms, for that matter – have agendas that are different from those of IM-ers or anyone else who is trying to monetize their space.

Perhaps it can be thought of like this: In the UK, they speak of working at “cross-purposes.” It means that people who are…[Read more]

As a matter of curiosity, Les, what does a typical day look like for you?

Hi Robert,

Thanks for the encouragement. I certainly hope I can find the right track and the right work balance sooner rather than later.

Wow Julia,

It seems you are super organised and have become super disciplined. Without developing those skills I don’t see how anyone could make it work.

Your approach may well, in the future, compare with all the foundational groundwork and massive amount of posting done by Sean Mize to ezinearticles that, ultimately, kicked started his path to…[Read more]

As always Bruce wise advice,

That is one of the problems with groups like this, (or at least it is for me) I get carried away asking questions when Google and YouTube are always on hand and with a little research will usually deliver what I’m after.

Anytime I want to know something Les, I Google it.

I read perhaps a dozen results. Maybe more. It depends on how disparate the opinions are.

When you start seeing everyone say what everyone else has said, then you know that you’ve probably read everything.

The next step would be to watch some YouTube clips about what FB pages ought to look…[Read more]

There’s a lot of nasty bugs going around, Robert.

I’m into my fourth week with a virus. At least I’m sleeping all night now, but for three weeks, I didn’t get much done.

And now, I have to get caught up.

It’s as you say, you get all psyched-up, and then you’re sent back to the locker room.

Hang in there.

Hi Sean,

Getting involved in other FB groups where possible future customers/clients need help would seem like a logical starting point.

But what should my own FB page look like nowadays?

It was several years since I built a fanpage and over a period of about a month I added content in the form of Comments, Memes, video clips etc etc.

I added…[Read more]

Hi Bruce,

I get what you say. And to be honest I don’t think it would be wise to try and become expert or be “over” lots of Social media channels.

I have read that 4 is plenty. Now those 4 could be big boys like FB and Youtube…or smaller Like tumblr or Pinterest. Medium is obviously smaller, but could still be useful as it has proven to be for…[Read more]
