Seth Godin

"Other than writing a daily blog (a practice that's free, and priceless), reading more blogs is one of the best ways to become smarter, more effective and more engaged in what's going on. The last great online bargain."

The blogs are dedicated to marketing.

“I’m not sure there’s a marketing blogger more legendary than Seth Godin. He’s been blogging every day for years, and the amount of power his posts pack into just a couple of paragraphs (often less) make me realize how much work I have to do to become a more effective writer.”- Alex Turnbull

Gems from Seth Godin Blogs

“Marketing is a contest for people’s attention.” 

Marketing continues to be not about you, your product, and all the other awesome things that you are and have.

It’s still about them.

As a matter of fact, with technology increasingly getting in the hands of more and more consumers, it’s correspondingly becoming increasingly about them.

A good marketer knows this and adjusts to the ever-changing terrain without losing sight of what needs to be done to get people’s attention.

 Dharmesh Shah -Founder-Hub SpotOn Startups- A Blog Dedicated to software startups.A sample TopicInsightful Study of 386 SaaS Startup Pricing Pages

Late last year, I combed through the Montclare Saas 2500  — a directory of the biggest SaaS companies in the world — to find common trends in what I thought would be a significant dataset. As it turned out, 80% of the 250 biggest SaaS companies didn’t have a pricing page at all.

Expecting to find a set of data more representative of what I’m used to seeing around (essentially startups), I turned to a bigger sample, scraping information from the first 400 startups in Angels Lists Trending Category. Of the remaining 386 which hadn’t shut down, I found that startups are around twice as likely to show their pricing than their enterprise SaaS big brothers. In fact, 39% of the 389 startups I analyzed had pricing clearly available.

Make the Most out of Your Seasonal Success with Product Reviews The holidays are a bustling time for many online businesses, and the period between October and early January—which is jam-packed with opportune events like Black Friday, Super Saturday, and Boxing Day—can be the savvy retailer’s most profitable season.

The consensus was clear: The Stockroom needed to convert its holiday sales into customer reviews.
