6 Ideas For Viral Marketing
Here are six ideas to help you start your viral marketing campaign:

Traffic Is Coming To Your Website; Now What?
Is the design and overall layout of the website effective? Can someone navigate easily through and also find their way back? Is the content relevant to what your ideal customers want and need to read to make their decision? An online marketing company has the resources to study the overall usability of a website, and determine if any structural issues are preventing a higher % of a successful outcome.

PDF Your Board Package
Thankfully I no longer get fedexed binders of board packages from my portfolio companies in advance of a board meeting. Through the modern miracle of email, the board packages show up in my inbox – hopefully a few days (rather than a few hours – or even minutes) before the board meeting. The board packages tend to show up in three different formats – one that is easy to deal with, one that is ok, and one that sucks.
Board Meeting Rules
Following are some board meeting rules that were recently presented to me and my fellow board members by a CEO at one of his first board meetings at a newly funded early stage company. I thought they were brilliant. Feel free to pass them out at your next board meeting.
A Strategic Look At Dos and Donts of Board Meeting Minutes From Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach
Do you serve on a board of directors and experience significant inaccuracies and inconsistencies in board minutes? Do you know that board minutes are really a very important resource to governing boards? Minutes of board meetings provide evidence that a board has exercised care in decision-making. The minutes also substantiate that a board is operating in accordance with its Bylaws and other documents and rules. Although there is recognition that board minutes are important, many organizations continue to have inadequate records of board meetings. Your strategic thinking business coach offers a list of the DO’s and DON’Ts of board meeting minutes.

Entrepreneurs and small business owners need to take ownership of worklife balance discussion
The mantra of the late 90’s and the first decade of the 21st century is “Be proactive.” And corporations are doing a fine job of being proactive in claiming ownership of the “work-life” discussion. They’re doing this because when they launch the discussion first, they get to define the parameters—they get to make the rules. Entrepreneurs and small business owners should not try to emulate what large corporations do. Instead, you should look towards owning your own work-life discussion.

It's Time to Re-Evaluate
Allow me to begin with a discussion of how and why to evaluate things, and then move on to a discussion about either changing occupations or re-inventing yourself and your business. Just because you’re good at something doesn’t mean you like it!
The Board's Role in Fundraising
“Should my board help me raise funds?” The obvious answer is yes, of course they should! Now comes the hard part. Getting the board to actually raise money is a lot tougher than simply saying they should. Many nonprofits, of all sizes and types of mission, overlook the basic steps necessary to engage the board in effective fundraising.

Forum Marketing Secrets
An internet forum is an online discussion site, a modern equivalent of a traditional bulletin board. People who participate in an online forum can cultivate social bonds and interest groups for a topic may form from a discussion.

Social web vs. searchable web
Web forums have become one of the most effective outlets for communication and relationship building on the Internet. These online discussion boards have been likened to equivalent of a modern bulletin board, but are for the sole purpose of expressing opinions, advice and learning from others. Today we access online discussion forums for technical support, community and product reviews, advice on anything from career choices to fashion to schooling to illness, and general discussion about things we are interested in. People can join forum groups with others that are due to have a baby in the same month as them, or with others of the same occupation, or dog breeders that breed the same dogs as you! Where once we sought out community groups in our area, we now turn more to the online world from the comfort of our desks or couches.
Nonprofit Board Member Manuals - What Should You Include?
When you have a board of directors, it is always a good idea to have a Board Member Manual. A Manual is a great tool for board members to use when they need quick and easy access to critical information about the organization. It compiles important documents into one binder, so they don't waste time and energy looking for what they need in several files or locations. Does your organization have a manual for its board members?
