During the past month you’ll have noticed a lot more activity than from me in your inbox than is “normal” during the rest of the year.

Last week I got up on one of my favourite soapboxes to talk about online marketing and the dangers for an early-stage business of jumping on the online bandwagon too early. If you missed it you can read it here. As you probably know, I’m actually crazy about online business and online marketing – with it’s potential reach many thousands…

I recorded this video at the end of a month I spent living and working in Perth, Australia last year. I wrote and recorded it sitting next to the pool outside an Italian style villa in the Perth hills – the day after I went for a walk and bumped into a kangaroo! I felt inspired to record this video…

In today’s video, I want to talk to you about this question: Do I need a big mailing list, or a big online community to sell and to launch group programmes or memberships?
