Top Applied Marketing Strategies
At times, the market can be a strange place. Some people are nasty, while others are overly generous. You must have noticed that even when two firms are in the same industry, offering the same product does not always result in profit. Similarly, some corporations devote significant resources, effort, and people only to fall short of the success of a small start-up investing only a fourth of the resources.

The False Dichotomy of Work/Life Balance
Those that regularly talk about work life balance are, I believe, doing so with the best of intentions and with worthy objectives in mind. However, using the term and concept in the way we do puts us in a box from which there is no possible escape. Work/life balance implies and requires that the two things be in opposition to each other. If they were not why would we need to balance them. By setting up the two things, ‘work’ and ‘life’, as opponents we immediately eliminate from consideration a huge number of potential options to improve the situation. Rather than finding solutions based on accommodation or compromise, setting up work and life as opponents, as enemies, pushes us toward confrontational and non-constructive solutions. It makes it appear as if solutions that are a net gain for the one thing must, by there very nature, be a net loss for the other, and in the end, everybody loses no matter which way the pendulum swings. It does not have to be this way, and it should not be this way. It is time to call a cease fire in the work/life war. Work and life are not disparate, separate things, or at least they should not be. The more one can integrate work into life and life into work the better it is for everyone. Eventually the word work disappears and it just becomes life. The life you live for free, and the one you get paid for. Neither is more valuable than the other, and they can and should ‘work’ together to bring each of us the things we are seeking from life, whether that be material pleasures, intellectual pursuits, families, or any and all of the above. If we want capitalism to survive and thrive, if we truly believe it is the right approach for optimizing all of our chances at economic and personal well being, we must end the war between work and life. There is no other way. Of course, this is a very easy thing to say, much harder to actually execute on a plan to accomplish.

How I’ve Made Over $1600 Selling Digital Products
It’s been over a year since I started my Etsy shop and I remember it like it was yesterday. I was sitting in my dorm room panicking over my dwindling bank account balance. I had just paid $150 to campus parking enforcement to get my car back after it had been towed. That’s a lot of money for a broke college student.
