Guest speakers Nick and Vanessa - Gateshead

I would just like to say what an excellent presentation Nick and Vanessa gave at Property Consultants 365 event on Wednesday night on "social media".

It was both informative and interesting and I'm sure everyone who attended got something out of it.

I'll put their theories to the test and keep you updated.

trible meet tonight

Apologies to Vanessa and Nick, but unfortunately I now can't make the event tonight. Pleeese can someone post up some key points or insights raised tonight by either speakers, as I really did not want to miss out on this great mega event. Alternatively if it's too long a task and you're willing for me to call you and quiz you, then leave me a message to call you!

Many thanks in advance. Enjoy tonight.

All best, Jane Skynner

Top Coolest Tools and Websites for Online Entrepreneurs

Over the years we've used some tools but recently there's been a lot of really awesome tools that it'll be a shame not to share them with you. Now I know anybody can benefit from cool apps to help get things done more easily and efficiently, but the list I've compiled below are ones that are particularly helpful to those who do online-based work (like bloggers, writers, infomarketers, virtual assistants, etc.) or have internet-based businesses. Many of these tools and applications are free or have free versions. Enjoy!
