1. Basically, every marketer that I know would give anything if he could know how to win the (unlimited, if it is possible) trust of his clients. I read today about 10 Ways To Build Trust with Social Media, and I thought that this is a goo beginning.
…marketing is built under the assumption that stories can create an emotional bond between a consumer and a brand… a client and a service. Can you tell a story… create a service and en experience that builds trust?
Social media can help you build that trust.
2. Productivity is all about organizing your time. Period. Do we all know how to organize our RSS? Here’s The beginner’s guide to RSS
RSS, short for “Really Simple Syndication,” is a valuable tool for web users, but especially for journalists who use RSS feeds to streamline their online reading and newsgathering process. RSS makes it easy to keep track of many different blogs at once and to be notified of breaking news in your beat.
3. Now, there’s a title that got my attention. “ Why “Free” Costs You a Lot More Than You Think”
We live in the internet age, where we’re growing more and more accustomed to getting things for free. Whether it’s information from blogs and online newspapers, services like email and Twitter, or images, videos and music tracks, it’s all free and it’s there for the taking.

1. For new entrepreneurs, I have a great article : ”Productivity for Entrepreneurs”.
Minimizing the amount of time, money and sanity that is required to reach your goals is my definition of productivity and the only real reason anyone should care about it.
2. For those who have in mind a certain job, their ” dream job”, I recommend this post: 11 Steps in Becoming Educated for Your Dream Job .
This is a potential plan for getting a college education. It is based on things that worked for me and things that I wish I had done. It isn’t going to work for everyone, so it is probably best to read it as source for ideas–not something you should try to follow line by line.
3. I guess the title says is all. Revenue. Social media. It’s all about today’s interests in one very interesting article. How to maximize revenue through social media
These are not steps. When you’ve spent enough time focusing on awareness, your social equity will reach a level that will allow you to create engagement-type campaigns that will be successful. If you try launching engagement-type campaigns without building your social equity to a sufficient level, your campaigns will not be successful – and should be an indicator that you need to focus on awareness & build your social equity.
4. And because it’s Friday and the week-end is starting also have something funny for you. Click on: This cat is seriously stuck!
