Biz Tips Blog is TypePad Featured Blog Today!

I'm thrilled to say that this blog is the TypePad Featured Blog today! Coincidentally, it's also  my third blogiversary. I started this blog in September 2004 after my partner Patsi Krakoff started CoachEzines on September 4, 2004. The purpose was to publish my Next Level Biz Tips and there are now over 1000 posts on subjects ranging from Internet Marketing to Marketing Trends, Affiliate Marketing, MySpace and much more.

With so much content, it's hard to say where to start. I've been browsing through three years of posts and decided probably the best place is with our series on 6 Steps for Successful Online Marketing for Your Business. You can also browse through dozens of tips in the Next Level Biz Tips category.
