With the growing amount of online tutorials, software, and platforms like Wix, Squarespace, and Weebly, it is becoming more commonplace for businesses to try build their own websites instead of hiring an outside company. While those free platforms can…
I keep this scrap of paper, pasted to an old piece of poster board, pinned to the bulletin board right next to my desk at home. It’s not much to look at, but I look at it fairly regularly — The 10 Commandments for Reporters. It’s pretty amazing that I still have it. I think the…

Erik Qualman of Equalman Studios is a motivational speaker in the digital world and has been referred to as the “Digital Dale Carnegie.” Qualman has even…
One of the best sessions I attended at SXSW 2015 on a personal and professional level was one led by Michael Nieling, Founder and Creative Director of Ocupop. He is one of those people who has you laughing constantly and is always testing his boundaries with the things he says and does. This makes people…
