Small Fuel Marketing

Regular readers here know how much we like good, free, professional service and advice. Today we’ve found another gem for the small business owner and online dabbler in Small Marketing Fuel. This blog, an off-shoot of SmallFuel Marketing, Inc and offspring of IdentityFuel, is the work of Natalie M. Miller and Mason Hipp, a pair bonded in life and in business with the sole mission “to help small businesses everywhere get bigger.”

SmallFuel Marketing - Why You Should Go

As Mason and Natalie put it on their About Page, they don’t want to tell you what you want to hear as a small business owner or entrepreneur, they want to tell you what you need to hear. They want to provide you with real vital services and information you can use to set you up right in business. That doesn’t mean they’ll send you on either the cheapest or most expensive route, it just means they’ll send you on the most profitable.

And what could be more profitable than free advice? That’s essentially what the companion blog to the business is. There are posts from Mason and Natalie, and also well-known coaches and bloggers including James Chartrand and Dave Navarro. And the advice is real—not just sales gimmicky posts to get you buying their business, but posts important to growing a small business on topics like marketing essentials, productivity, exposure, and how to gain a competitive edge.

Summing Up SmallFuel Marketing

SmallFuel Marketing is an information-packed resource of real small business advice. It’s a great resource for online marketers and for offline small businesses, and also for people interested in capturing the power of small business marketing techniques for other interests (blogging and monetizing, perhaps?). Visit this blog and reap the knowledge of the pros, and grow your efforts above and beyond the average.

Copyblogger

Copyblogger, the work of founder Brian Clark, has been guiding bloggers, businesspeople, and entrepreneurs through the maze of online marketing and business since 2006. Brian brings his extensive knowledge and expertise, which he gained the best possible way—through experience—to his blog where he offers tutorials, applications, services, and general advice for bloggers and for businesses using blogging and social media as a marketing and promotional tool.

Copyblogger - Why You Should Go

Copyblogger is one of those resource sites with something for everyone. Bloggers and writers can use the blog to gain valuable insight into boosting blog performance, while businesses with an online element (whether expressly an online business or an offline business with an online presence) will learn how to maximize their business blog for optimal performance. The blog is targeted primarily towards entrepreneurs and business bloggers, but the information there is useful for a variety of online bloggers and professionals, and so it has gained a huge following of people who need to know.

What Sets Copyblogger Apart

What sets Copyblogger apart, though, is that it is a blog that teaches the basics of blogging and online marketing, but then goes a step further. Brian Clark goes beyond the given‚Äîthat blogging and online marketing are necessary‚Äîto show readers how to ‘one up’ the competition. He says on his About page that online marketing is not just about doing, but doing better and more effectively. As Brian says, anyone can post words on a page, but it is your copywriting skills that will really sell you and set you apart; those are the skills that Brian works to develop through the blog.

Summing Up Copyblogger

Copyblogger is the place to go not just to learn about blogging and online marketing, but to learn about doing it better. This blog is an excellent resource, packed with more resources and links, a great value for your time investment.
