Some Resources for You...

I'm a little behind this week, so I thought I'd keep my post simple.

In order to succeed in business, you have to find a need, provide a product or service that fulfills that need, and then figure out a way to let those who need it know you can help them. It takes a lot of resources - money, partners, advertising, marketing, manufacturers, etc. - to make all of this happen, and while I can't guarantee the success of every business, I can certainly provide you with a few resources I've come across that have helped with the success of TAMAR Graphics.

One of my favorites, and something I mention often, is Teleclass International. I have gotten so much information about marketing, networking, increasing my business and more, just by taking free one-hour classes over the telephone. Whether business or personal, I'm sure you'll find something that you'll benefit from!

Another great resource is Ilise Benun's Marketing Mentor website, filled with articles and great marketing tips, as well as a place to subscribe to her informative marketing newsletter.

No matter what industry you're in, About.com has a topic for you! Whether you're a Realtor, Song Writer, an Insurance Agent, or a Small Business Owner, what ever your business (or interest), there is some great information to be found in any one of About.com's many topics.

If you're just starting your business, or looking to re-focus your marketing energies, Sue Rasmussen has some great tips on how to find and market to your niche. Her site features informative articles, a niche-marketing quiz, links to her teleclasses and more.

Now I know this might not be for everyone, but my business has benefitted tremendously from learning about the Law of Attraction. And while there are many LoA practitioners out there, I highly recommend best-selling author Michael Losier. In addition to free teleclasses, Michael's website offers books and CDs for sale and you can sign up for his Law of Attraction eZine.

Some additional resources worth noting include Blogger and BlogExplosion, for those of you ready to venture out into the word of blogging. Also, Creative Latitude is a great place for creative professionals, both new and established. And if you haven't checked out your local business journal, many locations give a trial subscription.


Well, hopefully, you've found something to either inspire or inform. And if you have any resources you'd like to add, or topics you'd like to see discussed here, just send us an email or leave a comment.

Until next time...
