The IM Food Chain

January 19th, 2008 · 2 Comments

In a previous post, “IM In An Uncertain Economy“, I discussed the potential impact of the worsening US economy on the business models we pursue online. At this particular point in time things are looking very scary for the US economy and the proposed moves to inject some life into it by the government appear to be the equivalent of spitting on a raging inferno.

It’s going to get uglier before signs of a recovery begin to appear I’m afraid.

IM Goals For 2008

January 2nd, 2008 · No Comments

First off, Happy (belated) New Year! It looks like I’ve stumbled a bit out of the gate heading into the new year. One of my resolutions (I hate that word) is to post more frequently here at IMMania.com. I’m really going to work on that.

I got to!

Rather than hash over the same old resolutions/goals that are pretty typical when looking ahead to the coming year, I’ll just touch on a few of the more important goals that I absolutely, positively, must get accomplished.

No ifs ands or buts!

Don’t Leave Money On The Table

Tracking Monthly Goals With MS Word Calendar Wizard

August 10th, 2007 · No Comments

I’m a big fan of “To Do” lists. This probably stems from many years trying to stay on task on tight deadlines as a software developer. My “To Do” lists often just consist of small sheets of paper or scribbled entries in a notebook. Of course, my “To Do” list changes from one day to the next and sometimes even from hour to hour.

Nevertheless, I need to have some general guidelines for what I need to accomplish over the course of a day. But what about longer term “To Do” lists? Ones extending out to a week or even a month?

Selling Your Own Products Online

August 3rd, 2007 · No Comments

I recently put together a short report on how to double your Adsense earnings using a simple, but little know technique. I put it up for sale in the Earn1kaDay members forum. Dennis Becker, the site owner, has created a sub-forum where members can offer products for sale to other members at a lower price than they offer it elsewhere. It’s really very similar to the WSO forum over at the Warrior Forum.
