Once upon a story, there was an online friend of mine named Nathan.

He used to run a blog over at NathanHangen.com, where, once upon the same story, I wrote a fantabulous (not to toot my own horn or anything) guest post.

On said blog, Nathan liked to talk a lot about “Empire” building.

He also liked to use testosterone filled words like “Sword” and “Sacrifice” and “Redemption”. (He’s such a dude.)

Nowadays, his blog is no longer up and running, but he kindly agreed to let me re-run that post here on #BGB.

Couldn’t let damn good content go to waste, now could we?

So let’s talk a little about empire building here on #BGB…

Girl style.

I think the whole concept of building a “digital empire” is a worthy goal. As an entrepreneur, why would you want to create anything less than an empire that you hold the reins to?

A virtual “machine” that not only makes you money, but impacts others in a positive way, brings enormous personal satisfaction, and can be molded into something you can pass down to your grandkids if you so choose?

And in the world we live in today, digital is just about the only way a single individual can build something so amazing and far-reaching, that can impact so many people, with nary more than a creative thought, coupled with a few inexpensive tools, readily available to the motivated.

STOP AND THINK ABOUT THAT A MINUTE

Literally the minute I hit publish on this post it is shot out into the mysterious cyberspace… available immediately to the eyes of anyone in the world who happens upon it. And a motivated person can make it happen over and over again with varying degrees of impact.

THAT’S A LOT OF POTENTIAL POWER ONE PERSON CAN WIELD

Eminem- I'm Not Afraid to Take a Stand and Why You Shouldn't Be Either!

Posted 28th April 2011 at 11:25 AM by k0zm0zs0ul (The Secret Sauce to Building an Empire, Dork.. Erm.. Girl Style)

I'm not afraid to take a stand… Everybody come take my hand… We'll walk this road together, through the storm…Whatever weather, cold or warm… Just let you know that, you're not alone…Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road.

When it comes to business and branding, and in my book just about everything in life, we should all take a page from Eminem’s notebook, and not be afraid to take a stand on the things that are important to us.

I’m a big believer...

Business Isn't Built On Hope And Faith

Posted 11th December 2009 at 08:17 PM by k0zm0zs0ul (The Secret Sauce to Building an Empire, Dork.. Erm.. Girl Style)

OK, so just to be clear, I’m a huge believer in faith, the power of positive thinking, and that yes, miracles do happen. So I’m not knocking any of those things, or the power that hope can have in a person’s life and their perceptions of the world. That doesn’t mean I’m going to leave my livelihood up to those things. C’mon, a girl’s gotta eat! And shop, and hang with friends, and go see cool movies and… oh sorry… I get a little carried away at times.

So, hope...

Sometimes it Pays to be Direct!

Posted 22nd November 2009 at 01:26 PM by k0zm0zs0ul (The Secret Sauce to Building an Empire, Dork.. Erm.. Girl Style)

Writing good copy ain’t always an easy task. Some folks manage to do it reasonably well, and some folks manage to mangle it beyond repair. The problem a lot of people run into is trying to be ‘too creative’. Yeah, I know, TOO creative? Who KNEW there was such a thing!

But alas, there is, and it happens a lot when people are trying to write sales copy. They are so focused on making their ad eye catching, and trying to get it to stand out that they go overboard and end up...

Top 10 Reasons a Skilled Copy Writer is an Asset

Posted 22nd November 2009 at 01:24 PM by k0zm0zs0ul (The Secret Sauce to Building an Empire, Dork.. Erm.. Girl Style)

There are a number of reasons why so many businesses fail in their marketing efforts. But it mostly boils down to using bad or ineffective copy in their campaign’s and/or not knowing WHERE exactly to focus their marketing efforts for the maximum ROI.

Preventing such a disaster from happening to your own company is fairly straightforward. If you have the resources, consider hiring a business consultant. This can be an amazing asset to you, and make a huge difference in your results...
