Teaching Sells . . . Perfect Timing

Page Rank Slams
If your blog or your business in any way depends on Google traffic, then you couldn’t have missed what happened yesterday.
A discussion of the page rank drop and a list of affected blogs was offered by Daniel at Daily Blogging Tips:
Here is a list that I gathered with big blogs that supposedly lost PR . . .
- Statcounter (from 10 to 6)
- Engadget (from 7 to 5)
- AutoBlog (from 6 to 4)
- Problogger (from 6 to 4)
- Copyblogger (from 6 to 4)
- AdesBlog (from 7 to 5)
- Search Engine Journal (from 7 to 4)
- Quick Online Tips (from 6 to 3)
- Search Engine Roundtable (from 7 to 4)
- Blog Herald (from 6 to 4)
- Weblog Tools Collection (from 6 to 4)
- JohnTP (from 6 to 4)
- Coolest Gadgets (from 5 to 3)
- CyberNet News (from 6 to 4)
In a second list, Daniel goes on to mention several mainstream media sites also hit, including the Washington Post, Forbes, and the Chicago Sun-Times.
Kind of makes us all stop to wonder how Google dependent we are.
Teaching Sells Opens the Doors
On the same day, Teaching Sells opened its doors.
You might remember me mentioning a free report about Teaching Sells, a study done and now, a full curriculum for online business offered by Brian Clark and Tony D. Clark.
Here’s what Brian says:

I’m a part of this venture and proud to be, particularly because of the high-value offer that’s in effect until October 31.

Free Report: Learn Why Teaching Sells

An Invitation
This week I received an invitation from Brian Clark. Did I want to tell you about what he and Tony D. Clark are releasing?
Brian got this teacher’s attention as soon as I read, “Teaching Sells.” I thought, “Oh, he’s picked a tough crowd for this one. This teacher sure hopes it’s good.”
I sent questions. I pictured Brian shaking his head, thinking what a pain I am. He didn’t need questions like “What pedagogy are you basing this on?” But he got a list of them anyway.
The cool thing is I got answers in almost no time. And I couldn’t find anything to poke holes in. What I found was information on . . .
- the best uses for your blog
- avoiding the “working for Google” trap
- why being “not normal” is an advantage
- how to make money sharing what you already know
. . . more than that. Oh and, the teaching model (pedagogy) they’ve chosen is a good one. The opportunity to make more money online is one that works for almost any entrepreneur.
So, I’m happy to link you to
Free Report: Teaching Sells
Click that big title to get your copy. The report is free. I’ve read it. It’s solid business and sound educational practice. You owe it to yourself and your business to download and read this. Your time and expertise are valuable.
Congratulations, Brian and Tony! You’ve hit the mark on both counts. Teaching Sells.

Somewhere around comment 180 last night, the conversation turned to writing a post about bad customer service people. Titles for Doug’s idea were tossed around between quite a few commenters including Brian Clark, Chris Cree, and the Advice Librarian.
Today that post is a reality.
