I have been thinking about this on an off for a while. How do you reconcile good fortune, or ‘luck’ in a business and it’s success (or failure!)? In all the businesses I have been directly involved with, in ether setting up and growing, or being a contributor to, there always seems to be an […]

I just read an interesting article from Justin at Vinomofo about building a tribe and attracting ‘supercustomers’, who love your brand/product and what you stand for.

On Thursday 2nd August […]

Went to the Melbourne Toy, Hobby and Nursery Fair this morning. It has been a long time since I have been to an trade expo like this, and brought back some memories of doing this for our previous online business Tacklemania which we sold over a year ago now. I took 2 of my eCommerce […]

It feels a little strange to finally see my book in the wild (yes, Making money on eBay for Dummies is now on sale!). I first spotted it online at Booktopia for pre-order. Wierd feeling! It was a long time in the making, and should be on shelves of bookstores in early December. So if […]

Don’t let me fool you, the title of this post makes it sound like it is all possible. Well, maybe it is. But there are a few reasons  it has taken me so long to post an update on my blog, and the heading says it all. It has been a long, active year. Financial […]

This time it is an information event, designed for developers/agencies, clients and those people interested in the platform to catch up and chat. As Magento Developers and consultants it is always nice to meet people interested in […]
