Things are very active for me with regards to this blog. While posts have been infrequent as post for a commercial purpose here. Put commercial in the name to emphasize, and have found myself at times planning on a post, and asking myself: but does it move things forward with commercial purpose?
Reality is there has been much for me to learn, and am still learning.
When first started this blog, had a vague idea of scheduled posting leading to a big audience, and making money somehow from advertising, like on my Promotional Tuesday day.
Which is kind of in a direction that plenty of folks I think have gone on the web, and that did not appear to be heading anyplace. While also realized the importance of a marketplace, so talked of an idea marketplace, which makes sense to me. Brought up term over a year ago here, where more was ranting about business behavior did not like.
Since then have better refined the concept which really is just about like when go to a store! You know when are there to buy something. Is literally a marketplace.
So managed to get MUCH more focused with: Promoting people work
Where talk through a basic business model which I think can work, where have three key entities: customers, payment intermediary, and business providers.
Like in an idea marketplace, say for photographs, would go there knowing could purchase rights to download photographs. Like that example as have plenty of pictures myself which are just free to copy off the web, which does not bother me. But I like example of Mona Lisa to explain that perspective.
So yeah, now is more thinking on my part of marketplaces for ideas and how might work here to fulfill commercial purpose of this blog.
Also have worked on concepts around good business practice, where found needed focus on human equality. And yeah, if I go somewhere to shop? Want to be treated a certain way, you know? So it is related as talked here not so long ago.
More and more people ARE learning I think to protect their right to a safe personal space as best they can with no excuses for others, especially not from wealth or power.
But also am noticing tragedy in the news, where think yeah, getting away quickly and carefully needs to be emphasized. If a person is willing to hurt you? That person may be willing to do MUCH more and predators do not like challenge, in my experience. Feel like need to emphasize: when that monster reveals, must carefully escape.
So whew! Is much going on where for me has been wonderful. Sure am struggling at getting to money, but would rather get things right than regret.
Thanks for continuing interest! Have various ways to measure, and is going very well so far.
Work continues....
