Do You Promote from Within?
Does this noble practice have some hidden pitfalls? How do you avoid them?
Do I need a professionally designed website to have an online business?
Some professionals give a resounding yes to the question of having a professionally designed web site for your online presence. For the rationale behind this look no further than your local Barnes and Noble Book seller for a good example. It is a brick and mortar structure. Barnes and Noble have lovely buildings that are clean, safe, well stocked with all types of books, magazines and CD's. You can usually relax and have coffee and a sweet if you choose. It other words Barnes and Noble present themselves to their customers very effectively.

Successful People Know When and How to Break the Rules
Successful people create and nurture their unique personal brands. Good personal brands highlight focus on the uniqueness of the person who created them. One way of doing this is to break a few rules. By breaking the rules, I don't mean doing something illegal or unethical. I mean thinking outside of the box and not being constrained by conventional wisdom. As Kevin Coupe and Michael Sansolo point out in their great book The Big Picture, in the movie Babe, Babe the pig succeeds because he doesn't act like a pig. He is friendly and mannerly -- characteristics not usually associated with pigs. Tamba Mbawa broke the rules in building his personal training brand. He placed his business card inside all of the fitness books in a local Barnes and Noble. What rules are holding you back from building a great personal brand? How can you break them

What Can I Do?
I’m sitting in Barnes and Noble eavesdropping on the people around me. Yes, I do things like that because I learn a lot. Here is the conversation at the next table, Woman in green, in response to a comment about a boss: “So, what are you going to do?” Woman in red, sighing heavily: “I don’t know. What can I do? I’m stuck waiting for him to make a decision. I hope he does it soon. I wish there was something I could do.”
Power Up with Extreme Self Care
I have always said that we spend an incredible amount of money on having our cars, houses and animals looked after, but when it comes to spending money on our own health issues ....that's a different matter. During my years of publishing magazines and being a single mother of two and sole provider, to boot, the last thing on my mind was to look after myself first. In some way I thought there was something "noble" about putting myself last. Believe me, there is nothing noble about it.
The ABCs and 123s of Self-Promotion For Independent and Self-Published Authors Part 3
Electronic and/or ebooks have reached a new high thanks in large part to the recent dramatic price reductions in Amazon's Kindle and the Barnes and Noble Nook. Suddenly, almost everyone who ever dreamed of being a published author can quickly and easily make their dreams come true. However, there is one catch...the competition for sales is increasing every day! That means that the author who publishes and does not actively and aggressively promote their book will never see any sales. How do you avoid this happening to you? You learn the tricks of the self-promotion trade for authors. Fortunately, it is actually easier than it sounds...and that's what I'm here to teach you--easy tricks for promoting your traditionally, self and/or independently published book.
The ABCs and 123s of Self-Promotion For Independent and Self-Published Authors Part 4
In today's world becoming a self-published author is easy--any Tom, Dick or Harriet can do it! All it takes is a book that you have written or edited and either a familiarity with a variety of easy to use computer software or less than $500.00 to pay someone to prepare it for publication for you. It's really that simple! The hard part--now and it was in the past--whether or not you self-publish or sign a contract with a major publishing house...is actually selling a copy to someone other than your mother. The ease of becoming a published author has made the competition for actual sales skyrocket! Which means of course, that the work has just begun once you hit the publish button over at Amazon or Barnes and Noble or Smashwords or wherever.... So where do you go from here? That's what this article is all about.
The Battle of eReader Giants - Kindle versus Nook
If you do some research on the most popular eReaders out there, these two keep popping up. Kindle versus Nook, or Amazon versus Barnes & Noble has become quite the classic battle, but which one is the better eReader?

Kindle v Nook - Which is the better eReader?
The Kindle from Amazon and the original Nook from Barnes & Noble are two very popular eReaders available to buy today. Both have been around for a while and both have upsides and downsides. In this Kindle v Nook review I will provide you with an honest and unbiased look at them both so to make it easier for you to make the right decision for you. At this point I would like to inform you that I am a long time eReader enthusiast and I would never review a product I hadn't tried and tested (which is not the case with most other so-called “reviewers” out there). So, I hope you enjoy my review and feel free to comment or ask any questions you may have.

Five Ways Strategic Planning Builds Capacity And Capability
By September 2011, Borders Books will close their doors forever. The company will liquidate all of its assets and deliver pink slips to approximately 11,000 employees. Meanwhile, as a result of smarter strategies that recognized and accounted for changing dynamics in their marketplace, competitors like Barnes & Noble have fared much better. How can two such similar book store giants end up on such divergent paths? Examination of the downfall of Borders Books reveals strategic errors that arguably led to its demise. Such is often the result of ill-conceived strategies that failed to zig when the market zagged.
