Facebook Adds Twitterlike Tagging Feature | Duct Tape Marketing
"To me, the greatest challenge with marketing on Facebook is that the sited encourages linking only with those who know you. Though so-called fan pages change this equation, sites like Twitter and LinkedIn still seem more effective tools."Ask Scott Fox: Where can I find a good Business Plan template?
"Scott, Like you, I am not a huge fan of business plans, at least not formally written ones. The best business plan, in my opinion, is one perhaps in your head or on one page of a word document that explains what you want to do and how you intend to go about doing it. If you can't find a business plan template online, you're not looking and I guess there is only a question of which template is the best for you. "77 Tips For Starting An Online Business
"Wow! 77 is an unusual number and I kind of wonder how you arrived at it. But this looks like quite a valuable list and gives quite a lot to think about. I also like the way the points are broken down into sections looking at this from a number of different perspectives."Become an Expert at Handling Price Objections

What Happens When Someone Copies Your Posts? | Duct Tape Marketing
"Maybe I'm naive, but it seems to me that the effort needed to prevent this activity is more than it is worth to stop it. Also, when it comes to search engine penalties, I tend to rely on the idea that the system is designed to reward those making the online environment a better place. So I wouldn't expect to be penalized for something I haven't done. I also think there is a huge difference between someone posting a portion of my article with a link back to me and simply stealing my stuff without attribution or link juice.
