Lessons from the first millionaire online teacher (via Pando Daily)
By Sarah Lacy On July 8, 2013Software programming? Yeah it’s an okay way to make a living. But the real money is in teaching. Or at least that’s the recent experience of Scott Allen, a programmer and teacher the tech-y online education platform…
Yes, we are totally exposed when we are vulnerable. Yes, we are in the torture chamber that we call uncertainty. And yes, we're taking a huge emotional risk when we allow ourselves to be vulnerable. But there's no equation where taking risks, braving uncertainty, and opening ourselves up to emotional exposure equals weakness.

You might not feel it day-to-day, but business management is in a major transition. The old days of command-and-control leadership are fading in favor of what might be better termed a trust-and-track method, in which people are not just told what to do, but why they are doing it. More formally, we're moving from what was called "transactional" leadership to "transformative" leadership. And there's no turning back.

Most businesses think it's too hard, too scary, or too much work.
Audiences are more open to blogs than ever.
We're more connected which means more time to consume your content.
It's a great way to build deeper customer relationships.
It's an excellent way to stand out from the crowd.
Internet marketing isn’t that complicated and it’s certainly not dead! There are three essential ingredients to creating successful marketing for your business on the internet. Each builds off of critical business information such as your value proposition and products and these elements will help you by forcing you to create a few processes that will let you capture more value.
Have you ever sought advice from the people in a business network you belong to? If not, you are missing out on one of the secondary benefits of being involved in a networking group.
Sure, the primary reason you’re networking is to get referrals, but you also gain access to professionals in almost every type of business. Every good network can actually become a type of “mastermind” group that you can tap to gain more information and knowledge.

Especially in this economy, when business growth is a slow and arduous uphill battle, it will be businesses that can stay on the cutting edge of social technology who make it big. When we think of LinkedIn, we often think of it as a site used by individuals to promote their personal, individual brand. I truly believe that there aren’t enough people who take advantage of the opportunities LinkedIn provides to grow and promote your business, not just yourself.
When would-be entrepreneurs hear the statistics that nearly half of all new businesses fail within the first 5 years, it can be off-putting. However, it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try. As Richard Branson once said, “You don’t learn to walk by following rules. You learn by doing, and by falling over”… [Read Full Post]
Most small businesses fail within three years. If you can answer these six questions, your business will probably last beyond three years.

LOL. "He makes a good case for buying an Anroid phone." Until Apple sues all Android phone makers because they violated Apple's patent on devices that look like phones.
Too few small businesses are taking advantage of technology, suggests a new report.
New York's Center for an Urban Future spent five months researching and interviewing for the report, called "Smarter Small Business." The research also includes a survey of more than 230 small-business owners across the city's five boroughs.

If your business doesn’t have a website, it doesn’t have a chance. And, I’m not even talking about a professionally designed and optimized one. If you don’t have even a basic website up and running these days, your prospective customers and clients are going to have a hard time seeing you as being relevant.
Not Having a Blog Is Not An Option
Jeff Walker shares some rules he has learned throughout 16 years of internet marketing.
Facebook has been busy behind the scenes working on some new features that will change the way small businesses market to their audience. The latest unveiling is the Page Post Targeting feature, which will allow brands to target their posts to specific segments of their audiences, instead of the broad posting approach that's been the standard until now.

If you still don't have a mobile-friendly version of your website you're most likely turning away potential customers without knowing it.

Acquiring a new customer is six to seven times more costly than retaining an existing one, reports Flowtown, a company that specializes in small-business marketing strategies, tools, and tactics. Thus, it makes sense to spend a significant part of your marketing budget on drawing people back to your office, store, or website. But how do you do that?
