Just start …
April 21st, 2009 by jill
I just listened to a recording of John Jantsch with Duct Tape Marketing, interviewing Seth Godin, bestselling author, entrepreneur and agent of change. They covered a LOT of interesting topics related to small businesses and our current economic environment, including why Godin doesn’t Twitter! Godin is a believer in being the best in the world at a few things, rather than being average at a bunch of things. I was multitasking while listening (being average at a bunch of things), and I still got a great deal out of the interview. Seth’s final request of the audience was to “just start” — so, I am hereby just starting by blogging about it! Tell me what YOU are going to start.

I started a blog yesterday– perhaps because I read Susan’s comment’Just Start’. That must have been the moment when I stopped just thinking about starting a blog and just started it. Thanks Susan.
Do you have ideas about how nonprofits can survive the current economic crisis? Nonprofits Thrive (blog) is a new forum for nonprofit leaders, consultants, and community citizens to share ideas that can help nonprofits thrive.

Thanks for your comment, Pam; and congrats on starting your new blog! I think nonprofits have to follow the same rule: don’t stop marketing. You must stay in front of your customers/clients/constituents. The old outta’ sight, outta’ mind applies — even in these economic times.
