Can your business survive?

I’ve said it before… and I’ll say it again…

Sometimes the healthiest thing we can do for our business(es) is to take a step back and breath for a while. Whether we are forced to take this ‘break’ because of health reasons, family issues, unexpected emergencies… or because we are just plain tired of how we have been doing things… No matter what the reasoning is behind it – we all need a break… a breather…

The question is… can your business survive if you do?

My answer is coming this weekend… thought I’d give you an opportunity to mull this one over for a bit ;-)

Oops – major typo… sorry!! Use eBay NOW For Business Growth…

The last post had a title that read:

New resource page for you

Many people have asked if I have a list of resources that I use (or have used) to grow my own online business. I do… and I finally put some of them onto a web page! At this point, I’m only sharing this page here on my blog – I don’t have any links to it from my other sites… I threw it together and would like to put a little more time into it before I let the whole world know about it ;-)

If you are looking for resources about blogging and internet marketing in general – check out my resource page here: www.jennihunt.com/resources

Enjoy! Oh – and if you see something missing that you are interested in learning more about… let me know… the resource page is a work in progress.

Have you taken a breather from your business recently?

I’m very aware that I haven’t posted in the past 3-4 months… and it isn’t because I haven’t had some great things that I’ve wanted to share with you… it’s just that sometimes life takes priority – know what I mean?

We are kidding ourselves if we think that we can plug along day after day… week after week… month after month… and not need a break from our work or businesses. It’s GOOD to take a breather — to step away for a while… to focus on other things… and come back to business later. Usually this break allows for a new perspective on how you do business. And, most likely, you will return with a clear mind and a new motivation!

For some reason, however, I don’t think I need to convince you that taking a breather from your business is a good idea every once and a while… that’s not the problem.

The problem is… and I can almost hear many of you thinking it now…
“How am I suppose to survive in this economy if I step away for a month or two… or even a week?”

Ahhh… that is a great question ;-)

And, the internet has all the answers… We live in an amazing information and technology age. Learning to use this technology to automate your business is likely one of the most important things you could be doing right now. This is a tough one for Ebay sellers to grasp – usually, the concept is easy to understand… who can argue against creating automated revenue streams? Sounds like a dream! But, how do you apply this strategy to selling on eBay?

Talk about a loaded question! There are so many ways – really, all it takes is an open mind and a bit of creativity.
