One Essential Thing for Your Website (A Surprising Number of People Don’t Do This)
I’ve been browsing through a lot of other people’s websites lately.
There is something that has become painful to see. I will go onto a forum and see someone complaining that their website gets like 10 visitors per day and they want to know why they aren’t making money.
Sure, traffic is part of it. But unless you absolutely hate making money, there is something that many of these websites are neglecting.

Your Choice Matters (Help Me Choose the Direction for This Blog)
Okay, so I’ve gotten some positive feedback for the 10×10 thing (getting a group of people together who are interested in challenging themselves to do 10 things 10 times more in 2012).
It seems like there are a lot of things that people really want to work on, without a definitive clear winner.
So, I’m going to float out 3 options that I think are very important to help us get 2012 started on the right foot.

Let’s Get Our Stories Straight (How to Get People Addicted to You and Your Business)
It’s story time!
A long time ago, I learned from someone that the faster that you can pass someone off to an affiliate link or a sales page, the better your chances are of selling them something.

Let’s Take Things to the Next Level Together :)
How’s your holiday season going?
Over here, 2011 is running out of time, and I’m left thinking about some plans for 2012.
I have an idea I’d like to float by you and see what you think.
It seems I have a strange fatal flaw that naturally pulls me toward extremely challenging situations. Like when I started this blog, I devoted a whole year to working on making money online (I wrote about it from week 7 through week 52).

The Two Types of Businesses (The Benefiting from Bangkok Manifesto)
I went to architecture school, where pretty much everyone talks about Robert Venturi who is a dude that co-wrote a manifesto called Learning from Las Vegas. In Learning from Las Vegas, Venturi argues that there are two types of buildings: Ducks and Decorated Sheds.
Now, I’m not here to comment on architectural theory.
This post is meant to be my online adaptation of Learning from Las Vegas for business building. I’m calling it the Benefiting from Bangkok Manifesto (OMG! I’m actually writing a manifesto!).
A few weeks ago I wrote a blog post on some observations I made while in Thailand last year.
And from that, I’ve come to the conclusion that there are really only two types of businesses.
