Down to earth real guy video

If you read around this site a bit, you’ll see that I don’t really write that much about technology here. That’s weird!

You see, I’m offering much more than technology. Sometimes business tips, sometimes humorous, and sometimes thought provoking. Whatever I can think to [...]

Thanksgiving

Toby — Tue, 16 Nov 2010 15:18:54 +0000

Just in time for Thanksgiving and to show my thanks for all of the great contributors to the world, I am offering my first discount.

Because I want everyone with a message to get it out there AND because coaches and speakers have contributed to my life so greatly, I am offering some super-fly web site [...]

You don’t need credentials to validate your worth!

Toby — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 22:13:50 +0000

My entire career has been made up of two service offerings, neither of which actually required being credentialed in order to be successful: Web Design and Coaching.

Now, of course, there are credentials that exist in both of those. You can become certified by various large, widely recognized groups.

BUT, you don’t HAVE to play their game. [...]

Coach as entrepreneur

Toby — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 15:48:19 +0000

I get a daily newsletter from gaping void that shows Hugh Macleod’s cartoons. I think that they’re fun and often thought-provoking.

Today’s cartoon, entitled Successful grabbed me enough to go to the site and peak around. (Further testament that email marketing and sending newsletters works!)

While I was there I ran across this article: random thoughts on being an entrepreneur

I [...]

Behind the Mask

Toby — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 21:01:01 +0000

Are you wearing a mask??

Could it be that your mask is just that you’re not showing up to be seen??

There are tons of ways to be out there on the Internet: websites, blogs, FaceBook, Twitter and about a million other forums, groups and apps. Each has it’s own advantages and disadvantages.

But the one thing that [...]

Building a Cathedral

Toby — Mon, 18 Jan 2010 18:38:58 +0000

A traveler came upon a group of three hard-at-work stonemasons, and asked each in turn what he was doing.

The first said, “I am sanding down this block of marble.”

The second said, “I am preparing a foundation.”

The third said, “I am building a cathedral.”

This story has been repeated thousands of times, each with it’s own twist [...]

Who will end the recession?

Entrepreneurs are making the difference!

Naomi

This is a followup to a previous entry (IttyBiz) that I felt compelled to write because I wanted to point out something that Naomi does which I find to be quite amazing. Simple, yet smart!

Take a look at her Contact page: http://ittybiz.com/contact/ to see what I’m talking about.

I think it’s very cool that she puts [...]

This is really great. I saw the movie, which was excellent, but this was my first exposure to the actual man. I am inspired.

IttyBiz

Toby — Fri, 02 Oct 2009 20:31:14 +0000

Naomi Dunford is a down to earth, easy to read marketer and copywriter. [...]

The Inspiration Age

Toby — Fri, 25 Sep 2009 20:40:32 +0000

Are you prepared for the Inspiration Age?

The Industrial Age was about building more, faster, cheaper. Which is nice, but we end up with a lot of mass-produced, cheap… junk. And they tried oh-so hard to advertise to us; to get us to buy it all. The Information Age was about knowing more, always learning [...]
