The 'dark' side of selling - buyer beware
In the world of sales there has always been the following advice for customers and for good reason: Buyer beware Read the fine print If it's too good to be true then it is And so on. As much as I advocate for and encourage healthy, trust based, open transparent customer relationships I am fully aware of the ‘dark side' in the profession of sales. In my travels, sadly I hear of many stories about people being ripped off and taken advantage of often with no idea about what is happening to them until it's too late. All under the guise of selling.

Home Based Business - Don't Get Lost in the Internet Jungle!
Home based business on the internet can be as dangerous as stumbling into the jungle unprepared. You would never dream of going into a real jungle without preparation and a competent guide. A jungle is filled with unfamiliar plants, animals and reptiles. Many of the species indigenous to a jungle are fierce, deadly creatures, and yet, the jungle lures people into its depths just as entrepreneurs are lured to find the best home based business. The Internet and its opportunities are as diverse as any jungle habitat. The Internet doesn't have live creatures lurking in the shadows, yet it can be as fierce and unforgiving as any jungle when you are uninformed and unprepared to travel though its diversity. The same applies to home based business.
Two Small Letters, One Big Word
Over the years I’ve learned a lot of lessons the hard way, including contract and deposit policies to (at least partially) protect me from con artists and deadbeats. That said, one of the most important skills I’ve had to develop has been the proper and ample usage of the word “no”.

Getting it Done
Getting things done is a fine art that is often misunderstood. Many people spend time getting good at knowing why things should be done, or could be done, but few become artists at doing them. Yet these 'artists' are the ones who we learn about through history and the media, and are the ones who inspire us quietly in our daily lives. And yet everyone who walks the face of the earth gets at least something done, even if it is not notable. So what is the difference?

Ladybrille Exclusive:Interview with Storm Records' Music Mogul, Obi Asika
This is Part I of my indepth interview with Obi Asika, Executive Chairman of Storm Media and Entertainment Group; one of the biggest players in music and entertainment in Nigeria--think SonyBMG Music Entertainment Group although not quite the same reach, for now.

In Part 2, Obi & I discuss the music business in Nigeria & Africa, entrepreneuralship, piracy, artists abuse, technology/new media, Nollywood and international expansion and collaborations.

How Do Successful Christian Internet Marketers Drive Away Snake Oil Salesmen?
Having found my niche in Internet marketing, I am now my own boss. I am presently building an e-commerce business while traditional businesses feel the pinch. E-commerce continues to grow in leaps and bounds and all projections are that it is only going to grow bigger. The difficulty is to find a legitimate Internet marketing business mingled in with all the scams. Some scams are even labeled as “Christian” opportunities. I do not know why scam artists think Christians are stupid and uneducated but with the research I have done, all I can gather is that scam artists think Christians are an easy target for the “snake oil” they are selling.
DeviantArt and Your Business
Keeping your mind open to possibilities is a key component in success. In this article, I wanted to discuss a website you may not be familiar with called DeviantArt. This site features thousands and thousands of works of art from artists around the world. One of the great things about DeviantArt is that it allows these artists to have the opportunity to have their work seen by countless others.
Being True to Me
"Finding my voice" is a phrase often used by artists, writers, musicians, and other creative people to describe the often difficult process of learning from other artists' styles and, from these, developing the style that most truly represents yourself. This applies not just to artists, but to people in just about any walk of life. Each of us learns from what surrounds us - for example, the expectations and value systems of parents, society, institutions, friends, peers, our boss, or our organization. But then we have to ask ourselves whether these things really reflect our own personal values. And if they don't, we need to move beyond them to find what does. This takes a lot of work - and even more courage.
What is Art: A Discussion by Artists
What is art? What do others say art is? What to artists say art is? Who is right? Who is speaking? Art is personal.
Having a Conversation with An Artist Painting Out of Doors
Especially in Summer, you are likely to encounter artists outside with all of their equipment painting happily. You will see them in the cities, in the country, in rural areas, in museums sometimes, by oceans, by lakes, by farms. Speak with them if you feel so moved. One of the most exciting things for an artist is to sell a painting right on site that is not yet dry if it is oil and perfectly dry if it is an acrylic or watercolor. If an artist is shy or would rather not speak, you will surely know it. Still, most artists enjoy conversing with art lovers and others.
Loving Art & Conversing with Artists
How do you speak to an artist? Are artist really any different than accountants? How do you treat artists in conversation? Are you artist-friendly, or not? Read the article and you can answer the question from at least one artists point of view.
The Global Significance of Art
As an artist, I believe that art lives. There is the spirit of the artist in each original piece of art. Of this I am sure. Does the spirit move also into each reproduction? This I am not so sure of. What I do know is that a piece of art can stop one cold in his or her tracks or a group of people cold in their tracks. You can see this yourself whenever you go to a major museum where they have the masters in their collections. And, of course, contemporary artists can also stop people in their tracks. Art is powerful. I love being an artist. I love that what Kant said about come comparing artists to God. Of course, it all comes from God. Where art is concerned, globally, it is a small world indeed.
