Day 17: Posted Interview Audio, Faster Server, and New Business Cards

5 Jul, 2007  Marketing, Education  Brian Armstrong

Business Card Breaking FreeThis is day 17 of my 30 day marketing challenge to demonstrate blogging can be a profitable and inexpensive business to start.

My three tasks for today were:

1. I spent the morning getting the audio recording of the author interview put on the website. This will be a great way for people get an overview of the website and my philosophy on starting a business in an audio format, and will make the site more sticky. Check for it a little bit later today.

2. I spoke with 1and1 and they finally transfered this site to a new shared server. I’ve noticed it loading much faster.

3. I created some business cards for this website in Photoshop, and ordered them through 48HourPrint.com. It cost me $66.92 (including shipping) for 500 cards. (see photo)
