Small Business Trends

May 12, 2008December 5, 2009 andertoons3 Comments

As Andertoons continues to grow and expand, I’m always looking to get smarter about the business end of things. Marketing, legal stuff, tech trends… Ugh… There’s a lot to get up to speed on.

One of my favorite sites as of late is Small Business Trends. Editor Anita Campbell and her crew consistently inspire and educate me.

Recent faves include:

Your On Again, Off Again Marketing Relationship by Clate Mask
Changing Domain Names: One Small Business Example by Anita Campbell
Time-Generating Resources for CEOs by Zane Safrit

Great stuff, and great folks there! If you’re serious about your small business, you’d be doing yourself a favor adding Small Business Trends to your reader!

Spot the Frog Ending

Lapdesk

Some terrible news from my good friend Mark Heath – Spot the Frog, a rare laugh in the comics pages anymore, will be ending July 5.

To quote Mark:

This will be six monthâ€™s shy of the five year contract. The reason is the usual one: too few client papers, the need to earn money to replace my missing socks. I spoke with United Media and they were sympathetic to my odd sock fetish.

You’ll have to read more to get the sock reference.

It just kills me when good work like this isn’t given its due. Spot is funny, clever, sweet & kind. The papers and syndicate never knew what a gem of a strip they had.

Mark is considering a third book if there’s enough interest. I know I’m interested, and you should be too.
