My post on J.D.’s blog: The best $20 You’ll Ever Spend

October 12, 2008 · 9 comments

J.D. Roth from Get Rich Slowly asked me to make a guest post on his blog about entrepreneurship, so I wrote The Best $20 You’ll Ever Spend.

I use this technique all the time to meet interesting people — it really works — so check out the post.

Btw, check out J.D.’s blog, Get Rich Slowly. It’s one of the best personal-finance blogs out there.

This post is part of a series of Tips on Starting Your Own Business. For more articles on personal entrpreneurship and marketing, go to the index page, or follow the links below.

2 A Dawn October 13, 2008 at 3:24 am: This is a great post. Also, if you would like to flourish as an entrepreneur, find someone successful in what is your passion, and then copy their strategies to reach the zenith. This strategy perhaps sounds too easy and simple; however, this is a proven number one method to becoming successful.
Cheers,
A Dawn

I couldn’t agree with you more… Networking and Mentorship are key success factors. I’ve been able to move miles ahead and various pursuits when I had mentors to consult with.

Great advice.

Cheers,
