Question 1- What gave you idea for Buzzom?

The Five Biggest Business Fails with Internet Advertising
Internet advertising is now part of the business world. What I mean is it works just like offline businesses in the way that it’s location, location, location, and right now the internet is where people are gathering(over 1/3 of their waking time), but many businesses see advertising on the NET and assign it with little value because it’s not tangible, and they refuse to validate it’s business potential to increase revenue.
When companies start an advertising campaign, they assume it works Continue reading
How do you choose a product to promote on the internet?
Don’t mean to be a bigger buzz kill than Buzz Killington, but let me first say, if you believe any of the hype on making riches quick, you’re going down the wrong path. If anyone who sold Internet Marketing products or methods and is making money, in most cases will NOT share it->unless that niche has lost it’s revenue potential.

A lot of this business is resources, and resource management. But the thing I see too much, is many companies spend way too much time building a profile, and not the company infrastructure itself. When a prospective client comes to your company in need of work, not only are they given a short resume(is ok in the beginning), they are also supplied with little to meet their business needs except some words on how great your organization is.

Too many people do this for an easy buck and don’t treat it for what it is…a business.
