Feedback Regarding Free eBook

Surprisingly, I've had a couple of emails about the Definitive Guide to Local Business a free eBook I self-published several weeks ago after I goofed up a project with a writing client.

It seems that, although the eBook is well-formatted and easy-to-read, some users felt that imy suggestions were unattainable or unrealistic - which I found funny because they are exactly the techniques I've used to grow my own business online. I've never said getting your bricks-and-mortar business online would be quick or simple: it takes hard work or a fair amount of cash. And since I'm the frugal kind...

After talking to a couple of friends, I decided that maybe I should adapt or increase my efforts by branching out and getting some sort of retail operation running that ties in with my work - and then blog about it here on a daily basis for all readers to see, comment upon and suggest ideas and other methods of success.

So with that, I've started my own, personal, 30 day challenge: Can I start an online retail business online that requires no initial financial outlay and can make a profit in less than a month, using the techniques and suggestions provided in the Definitive Guide to Local Business and other free online resources?

Stay tuned!
