Never Be Broke AGAIN!
PEOPLEGreat thread. Thanks for the book tips. this is exactly what I am trying to achieve. Tell a story correctly and you don't have any competition. I read a Dan Kennedy book where he references the JPeterman catalog ummm "Owners Manual" as being a fantastic example of this principle.- TedM

Too Old?
I'm 53 (with a full time job, 8 kids, and lots of other commitments). The way to do this is to pace yourself. I do an hour or so a day on average. My current project has taken me well over a year to get it to the point of "ready". Be modest in your daily goals but focused and persistent...- TedM

Let's talk about Twitter & marketing
MARKETINGI'm skeptical about the real measurable marketing value of most social media. Twitter seems to me different, but that's a "gut" feeling - no empirical data. How do you use it? How do you find value? For example, what's the value of someone in your niche tweeting about you/your products to...- TedM
