  • I’ll beat procrastination, just you wait and see!

    At the end of last year I wrote a couple of blog posts about planning the year ahead. With good planning you be able to reach the goals you set yourself. However there are some things that can work against you and I seem to have stumbled into one of them: procrastination. I recently submitted…

  • Beware the Pet Projects that Bite!

    Internet marketing is as susceptible to trends and fads as any other niche. A couple of years ago it seemed almost every sales page featured a graphic that included a military gas mask.
