| LINKS to Business Blogs & Resources
This list changes now and then but these are great resources for anyone running a business or organization, small or large, for profit or not-for-priofit.
Co-author of "The Go-Giver", one of our recommended books. It's all about doing business with those you know, like and trust. If you are in sales or want to understand the power of networking, this is a great blog.
If you want to be remarkable, Seth will help you get started. We recommended his book "The Big Moo" but he has much more to say. Great for marketing ideas too.
Facebook? Twitter? You'll find resources, links and articles for all of the all the latest tips and trends in social media.
Why do many small businesses fail? Michael Gerber wrote a book called the E-Myth (The Entrepreneaur Myth - Voted #1 business book by Inc. 500 CEOs.) to examine that fact, and he's been coaching hundreds ever since.
