“Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts" - Calvin Coolidge (30th President of the US)

If you this book title fancies your imagination:

 

< Turning Iron into Gold: Golden Opportunities: How to Spot them, Create Them, Make Money From Them, and How Not To Miss Them.> ISBN: 978 0 7974 4207 8

 

And if getting it in PDF format does not bother you;

 

and you are involved in (iphone and/or mobile apps development, mobile solutions, mobile commerce, and mobile technologies), and you would like to tell me about what you do and can do, and maybe spot a chance at being featured in a future edition of this book, talk to me.

 

Download (PDF) at http://prospera2.wordpress.com

 

(sharing via FB is allowed)

If the author finds your stuff interesting, i can get you in touch with him, for free.

 

He is looking to expand on cases to do with digital/online technologies in his book, and even later ones. An example is the case study/outline he gave on iPhone apps, but that is not the only thing he is interested in. Instead of writing about US-made apps, he wants to give maxium exposure to Africa-made apps. Country-of-creation is not an issue.

 

This could be a good chance for you to get exposure, after all trying to get your name out there does not hurt.

Hi All

If you have a business that is too small to have a receptionist but big enough to be professional, it may be time for you to consider hiring a Virtual Assistant.

 

I offer a reception service from a remote location. Divert your phone to us and we'll answer your calls in your business name, take messages and schedule appointments in our online diary that is visable to you and us. 

 

Take advantage of this great way to ensure your business looks instantly professional and customer focused. Contact me for more info or visit my website www.synergisesmartly.co.za


Have a great day

Themba Dlamini's post is exactly the kind of rubbish that turns a great forum into a spam collection box. What a load of rubbish! His posting "You do not require a website in order to make use of MassiveAdvertising." takes you straight to his website where he tries to advertise his sorry services! Of course you need a website duh, it's 2010 not the dark ages. This is a forum for entrepreneurs, not entreprefools.

Hey guys,

If you're looking for interns that are keen to get involved with startups checkout: http://www.enternships.com/ I will be spreading the word here in SA to get more local talent looking to intern through this platform..which is great if you need them to be physically with your startup..but some work/tasks have no geographic boundaries and you can tap into some top international talent.. Let me know if you have any questions etc.

Hope it helps*
