Big news! I’ve recently been named as a featured blogger on My Venture Pad. Here is how My Venture Pad founder, Jerry Bowles describes this exciting new site.
“About six months ago, my partner Robin Carey and I approached Don Bulmer, head of Industry Influencer Relations at SAP, the major enterprise software firm, with an idea: Let us help you increase your visibility and influence in the small business market by sponsoring an online business community that we are building around the needs and interests of small business owners and managers of companies with fewer than 500 employees, and the professionals and experts who advise them.
“Our logic was that while SAP offers a full-range of software for the small and midsize company market and has thousands of customers in those categories, it is still perceived by many as a maker of software "for the big guys." We believed we could help alter that perception by applying some of the lessons of social media and conversational marketing we had learned over the past year or so from developing two prototype communities--Social Media Today and CleantechCollective.”
I was pleased to be added as a featured blogger. And, I am intrigued by the My Venture Pad concept. If you’re a small business person, I suggest you log on to www.myventuepad.com. Look around the site – spend an especially long time reading my posts – and decide for yourself if you want to join the community.
I like what I’ve seen at My Venture Pad so much, that I would have joined even if I hadn’t been invited to be a featured blogger. My Venture Pad has several communities that small business owners will find helpful:
- Leadership
- Managing Money
- Managing People
- Managing Technology
- Marketing Ideas
- Startups
- Your Tax Advisor
- Finance
In short, My Venture Pad is a good place for small business owners and entrepreneurs to go for good, common sense information on running a business. Check it out. I bet you’ll get hooked like I did.
That’s it for today. Thanks for reading. Log on to my website www.BudBilanich.com for more common sense. Check out my other blog: www.SuccessCommonSense.com for common sense advice on becoming the career and life success you are meant to be and to get a copy of my new ebook Star Power: Common Sense Ideas for Career and Life Success.
I’ll see you around the web, and at Alex’s Lemonade Stand.
Bud
