Want to be successful? Learn how to sell!

The number 1 reason businesses fail is because they don’t have enough money. Whether you plan on owning a business or not, this is important for you to know because you work for someone. And that someone is a business. The people who tend to keep their job the longest are usually good at sales […]

This Bud’s For You, InBev?!

In a surprising move today, Anheuser-Busch decided to sell to European competitor, InBev. Very interesting, almost disturbing how an American icon would sell out so quickly. Team this up with news this weekend that the government is stepping in to help out Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and the economy seems to be stumbling more […]

I think I have an addiction…

I now own over 100 domain names that I use for myself. (ie: does not include domains I own for my business.) But I guess when you think about it, only a handful are for “personal” use and the rest are niche marketing sites that actually generate money which I claim under my business so […]

Funny Business Models

Anyone else find it amusing that these guys offer a Mile High Club flight? I’ve never actually been in (on?) a hot air balloon, but I was under the impression that it would be tight quarters to do such a thing and right beside the pilot?

GoDaddy Rocks!

Last night I received a call from “Steve” at GoDaddy. This is where I purchase a bulk of my website domains from and have been content with their service in the past. To be fair, I have never had any issues with them and have never used their support. I figured “Steve” was going to […]
