BrandChannel on Ty’s Beanie Baby Site

Sunday, April 29th, 2007

This is so right on. I used to buy beanie babies, and I sold a few on eBay. The site hasn’t changed much in years! It’s very amateur. You’d think they came from a cottage industry and not a major brand. It baffles me. No Beanie Babies blog (that could be fun), no innovation.
In […]

Saturday, April 28th, 2007

It’s not uncommon in selling a small business online or offline that people think their site is worth more than it really is.

If your company wants to keep track of what bloggers are saying about your business, test this tool. I haven’t tried it yet (I just found it. I have to blog about it before I forget about it). There’s […]

I like to read Skip McGrath blog about making money on eBay. He specializes in informational products. He recently wrote a post devoted to affiliate marketing.
In it he praised Jeremy Palmer’s book (Jeremy probably got the Google alert), among others. ”
I’m not familiar with the other products Skip reviews briefly. I have […]
