Strategic Internet Marketing for Small Businesses
Good marketing takes planning. And good planning takes knowing all the different tasks you need to do and then systematically getting them done.
For most of us, this involves creating a to-do list. I used to write my to-do lists on a napkin which was great until someone accidentally used it to clean up a soda spill.

One of the main questions we get asked by our members is what sort of technology or service they should be working with. It wasn’t that long ago that you’d need an in-house development team to power your internet marketing. Now, there are so many good and reliable web services out there, that it’s entirely possible for a small business to get big business results without their own tech staff. We use a number of different online services here at VisibleU, and we can’t give you a much stronger endorsement than to let you know what we trust our own business with. So this will be the first in a series of posts where we highlight a web service or piece of software we use regularly.

In addition to George Hermann’s webinar with Cathedral Consulting this month, VIsibleU Co-founder and Internet Marketing Strategist Gabriel Blau will be speaking at two events this month.
First, offline in New York, Gabriel will be facilitating a discussion about Clay Shirky’s Here Comes Everybody: The Power of Organizing Without Organizations at the AJWS-AVODAH Partnership’s monthly book club “People of the Book.”
We’ll discuss Here Comes Everybody: The Power of Organizing Without Organizations by Clay Shirky. Amazon.com calls it: “A revelatory examination of how the wildfire-like spread of new forms of social interaction enabled by technology is changing the way humans form groups and exist within them, with profound long-term economic and social effects-for good and for ill.”
The discussion will be facilitated by Gabriel Blau, Internet Marketing Strategist and Co-Founder of VisibleU.
Tuesday, January 19 at 6:00 p.m. at the AJWS office. RSVP now to slipkin@ajws.org!

We’re a couple of weeks into the new year already, but I trust nobody will complain if I take a moment (now that I have one) to do a quick roundup of some of the holiday e-cards we worked on over the recent festive season.
Our approach this year was to create unique and funny cards that people enjoy getting and would remember seeing. Our e-cards generally get about the same open rates as other emails we do for the same company, but they consistently got higher forward rates. For some background on what we’ve done in the past, check out last year’s post on the subject.
Pretty pictures after the cut…
