    OFF-TOPIC

    Finding VAs in Facebook groups (instead of Upwork or Fiverr)

    PEOPLE 
    I had trouble finding a comment in the "Solopreneurs doing $1M or more..." thread specifically related to this, but I started hiring VAs via Facebook groups a little over a month ago on a recommendation from an Internet marketer friend of mine. So I posted this to our Instagram account a few...

    Black Friday

    MINDSET 
    Who here is offering Black Friday deals this year? There has always been intrigue to me in actually making money during the holiday season rather than simply being one of the millions who spend it. I'm crafting a new campaign for this season, myself. Even though I'm not offering discounts...

    Back in the Saddle

    My first business--a book publishing and sales business--flopped and I shut it down (and closed all of its accounts) this past June. Two big mistakes I made with this one was getting emotionally attached to it and writing/marketing books there was no demand for. I made the mistake, in my...
