FYI: ABCInc.biz Blog moved to ABCInc.pw

At the end of June, 2019, I bought the domain name ABCInc.PW

ABCInc.biz now points to the A Better Computer, Inc. home page
ABCInc.pw now points to this blog for A Better Computer, Inc.
Jaggers.pw continues to point to my personal blog.

(Read "PW" as "Personal Web," which is appropriate for a blog.)

Should A Non-Profit Organization Have A Business Plan?

Yes: A non-profit organization should have a business plan.

And, hand-in-hand with that statement, a non-profit organization should have a marketing plan to go with their business plan.

Daily Video Challenge

I found an article that talked about using videos for email marketing.

Interesting reading, as always. But near the bottom of the post was a discussion about how to hone your video presence and your video skills.

"Social media is a tool you use."

I have long believed and advocated that
"...you can’t build the foundation of your business on someone else’s platform...You need a website and to be building an email list. These are assets that are yours..." 

That quote is from a 2019 article written by Kimanzi Constable titled "Facebook and Instagram Going Dark Should Be a Wake Up Call for Entrepreneurs."

This post is based on Constable's words.

If you're in transition, then you may find this valuable advice, and a worthy suggestion to follow!
