Is Your Brand Awesome? Should it be?

Donovan Wadholm — Fri, 26 Sep 2008 11:25:14 -0400

Recently at a small business conference in Chicago I attended a few different seminars on marketing, promotion and branding. Being a self proclaimed finance geek, I find it is helpful to step outside of my natural habitat to broaden my knowledge base, and the best place for me to do that is by exploring marketing concepts.

Arrivals and Departures in the Workplace

Kevin Ohannessian — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 10:56:07 -0400

When an employee leaves a company, whatever the circumstance, it creates chaos. Who will cover their duties? Will they be replaced? Will someone be promoted to fill the gap? When the person that goes is a manager, things get even more complicated because the many people under the departed manager are left up in the air.

People Are My Priority for BlogWorld 2008

Chris Brogan — Mon, 08 Sep 2008 00:12:58 -0400

Okay, as a speaker/writer/blogger type, I'm happy that I'll be there gabbing and sharing opinions, but what I'm really looking forward to most at BlogWorld this year are the connections that the event will bring. Where else can I meet real estate bloggers, military bloggers, Godbloggers, and so many more varieties outside my world of tech and social media? How cool is it that Rick Calvert and the folks at Blog World Expo go out of their way to faciliate a much larger scope of conversation than what's covered in most blogging events?

Socially Secure - What I Learned at BlogWorldExpo '07

John Havens — Sat, 06 Sep 2008 10:34:11 -0400

I attended BlogWorld Expo last year for my company, BlogTalkRadio (I'm VP, Business Development) and enjoyed a number of solid sessions and prime networking.

My focus in terms of what I wanted to learn about from the event, however, was insights about authenticity in Social Media as I was researching my book, Tactical Transparency that I've co-authored with Shel Holtz.

Blog World 2008

Saabira Chaudhuri — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 13:49:10 -0400

It's fall again and while summer's valiantly trying to extend its tenure, pretty soon our shadows will get longer and our days shorter. For bloggers though, while posts about drinking outside, losing iPhones on the beach, and walks through Central Park might have to be curtailed, all is not lost; what is perhaps the year's most awaited event is just around the corner.

New format for this blog: my business research, findings and application

Salem Honey — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 17:45:42 -0400

Previously, I have been posting articles which I have written, or interesting articles I liked in the past. I like the candor of fast company, and believe this could be a great opportunity to "brain storm" in a research-like fashion with others.

Meaning, I do a lot of research online. Product, feasibility, SEO (I'm still learning the mid-level basics) and more. Combining my thoughts, and interesting finds will hopefully give others a jumpstart on their own companies.

Cheers!

The lobsters holding you back

Do you have lobsters on your team? For your sake, I hope not.

I recently suggested on my radio show and on my blog that you must fill your position if you want to keep it and more than fill it if you want to be promoted. The responses varied from ‘thanks for wasting my time’ to the following tale of woe from a listener.

He once worked in union shops where if you even got close to filling your position, you would be told to slack off. As he put it, ‘it’s a real morale killer’.
