I ran across this today from one of the internet’s premier teachers, Mark Joyner. He is taking advantage of what I love about the internet today. What is that? Social networking! It’s really what networking has always meant until you put all the electronics and technology in front of it. That’s why we call it social networking now, instead of just networking.
Now that you’re retired, you have time to create a blog and write about whatever interests you. You might even make some money doing it to supplement your retirement income. Just think, you get some semblance of a routine, i.e., write a blog post every day, read other blogs and make comments (and as time goes on new friends, I guess that’s the social part)… I think you get the message.
I am spreading the word about the free blogging course that Mark is offering. He’s using word of mouth advertising in a most inventive way. I’ll bet this is all over Facebook and MySpace by now.
I’m evaluating a multi-media course on blogging from the folks at Simpleology. For a while, they’re letting you snag it for free if you post about it on your blog.
It covers:
- The best blogging techniques.
- How to get traffic to your blog.
- How to turn your blog into money.
I’ll let you know what I think once I’ve had a chance to check it out. Meanwhile, go grab yours while it’s still free.
What do I have to lose? Hopefully my 9-5 job. Oh, yeah, I’m almost retired. YEY!!!
