Are you just selling instead of helping?
Posted by: edmoli879 on: September 5, 2008
One of my favorite email discussion used to be John Audette’s I-Sales Digest. There were many reasons for its success. One was that members of that community helped each other in their posts to the mailing list.
John says that I-Sales Digest was the major force behind his success in building a multi-million-dollar business. The digest [...]

Great topic. It’s all very good and well for David Ogilvy to claim he hated creativity–he was a stunningly good (and ground-breaking, and yes, remarkable) copywriter. I *still* want to buy things based on 40-year-old ads of his.
You can safely “shun creativity” once you’ve learned not to be awful–a [...]

I like screencasts. In some areas they can replace or complement an e-book.
Let me share my little experiment: I have an Excel dashboard that can be downloaded for free. If the user wants to know how it was done he can download a (paid) version. This version includes several screencasts that show how the dashboard [...]
