I’m currently in the process of working with a blogging mentor – I’ll reveal who it is at a later date, but trust me, their credentials are solid! The reason why I reached out to this person is because I’ve been battling with a few ‘blogging demons’ over the last few months. More specifically, I [...]
Nowadays, I often get interviewed for podcasts, magazines and blogs. In fact I was just interviewed by Yaro Starak for his excellent entrepreneurial blog and podcast, which I’ve personally read for years myself. I’ve been asked ‘If you could go back and start your journey as an entrepreneur all over again, what would you do [...]
As you know, it’s not often that I whole-heartedly get behind someone and what they have to offer online. But, I’m gonna do it today!!!
On Monday I published a post highlighting 3 bloggers that you must follow online in 2012 to achieve the success I know you want to – one of them was my good friend, Corbett Barr…
Warning: These bloggers could help you become uber successful this year! You’ve been struggling. You’ve had no motivation. No inspiration. That’s all about to change… 2012 is all about taking ACTION! And these guys (along with me, obviously!) are gonna help you… I present to you Pat Flynn, Corbett Barr and David Risley…

A while ago we moved into a new house. One of the main reasons we looked into buying a new place to begin with was because, as a Virtual CEO, I was working from home more and more. Today I take you on a quick tour of my new home office facility, and tell you why I made the changes that I did. All with the focus on productivity!
First up, I’d like to say ‘thank you’ for all the well wishes I received from everyone last week, via Twitter, email and Facebook, as I lay in bed battling what turned out to be the worst flu of my entire life. I literally didn’t leave my bedroom for three full days. This month’s report comes to you in all the glory of video…
Newspapers, magazines, radio and TV are quickly engulfing themselves in the new media world of blogging, social media, podcasts and online video. Whats happening on the ‘media’ horizon do you think?

I was recently in San Diego hanging out with my buddy, Pat Flynn, for a few days. Here’s a true story from that trip… Ever been sitting in a hotel lobby using the free wifi connection, only to have a complete stranger listen in on your conversation? Make you mad…? Next time, don’t get mad. Make money!!!
Google’s Panda has had a dramatic effect on the ranking of many websites. Before, it was possible to place 100 related longtail keywords on a page, throw some links at things and rank for many of them. In fact I had such a page getting 15,000 visitors a month, which is now down to just 140 a month. How things have changed…
Quick video post to get the week started. I was driving to the office this morning and shot this on the hop, as they say – but, I think the content brings up a serious point… As entrepreneurs, we ALL do things differently, right?! What works for me, might not work for you, and vice-versa. How do you start your day…?!

November 3rd, 2011 was a special day… I had the pleasure of speaking at the biggest annual blogging, social media, podcasting and new media summit in the world – BlogWorld Expo, in LA. It was another fantastic event, so I thought I’d show you a few photos and tell you a little more about it all…

This post by Timo Kiander, is part of ‘VBL Guest Post Season 2′. Outsourcing is an evergreen topic in the world of online entrepreneurs. This is quite understandable.
