Today's issue is sponsored
by:
My partner, Sharon, and I know first-hand how awful it can be when
a hacker
gets to your website and literally freezes your
business, if not kills it completely.
I sure wish we had known about this eBook, by
Jason Tarasi, that could have
protected us from this terrible nightmare. You owe
it to yourself and your business
to see it for yourself, the Insider's
Guide To Website Protection .
This might be
the best $9.97 you have ever spent AND it comes
with free resale rights so you can
help others avoid this terrible catastrophe.

Featured Article
Give Your Business Writing
the Authenticity Advantage
Written on December 13, 2010
by Karen Marcus in Writing Tips and Tricks
As the term “authenticity”
has gained momentum in recent years, I’ve been surprised.
Hasn’t authenticity always
been important? Yes. It’s just that with the rise in popularity
of social media and online
marketing, a lack of authenticity is easier to spot.
You can get away with a lack
of sincerity if customers only interact with you once a month
when they come into your
store or visit your website. But, when you engage in online
conversations, you’re “out
there” every day, and it becomes apparent very quickly
what you have to offer–or if
you’re just looking to gain. With so much focus on content,
it’s more important than
ever to give your business writing the authenticity advantage.
Here are some tips for
making it happen:

Positive Quote
The great thing and the hard thing is to stick to things when you
have outlived the first interest, and not yet got
the second, which
comes with a sort of mastery.
