Brag Basket – Tell us your story

By Small Biz Survival

brag basketOnce a week, I offer this post as a safe place to brag because other small business people understand your challenges. And we will all applaud for your success!

What can you brag about? Last week, Dan bragged about his company’s work. Owen bragged that Oprius won the ViaTec Emerging Company Of The Year, and Greg bragged about a cool new service for real estate selling that they’ve launched at Mobivity. Anything is fair game for bragging!

You can brag anytime during the weekend and throughout the week. Next Friday, I’ll post a new Brag Basket, fresh and clean for new brags.

If you feel a bit bananas when you get done, feel free to take a copy of the basket logo, made for us by our friend BJ, and link back to the brag basket from your own blog or site.

Now it’s your turn. Post a comment and brag!

    I want to brag this week. My posts on how to create and use video for promoting small business generated at least five spontaneous mentions in other blogs. (Not solicited at all by me.) Rex even picked it up for the SmallBusiness.com Newswire!

    Chuck Huckaby’s Work at Home Business Opportunities
    Mike Sansone at IowaBiz
    Matt McGee at Small Business SEM
    Bovee and Thill’s Business Communication Headline News

    Interestingly enough, Bovee and Thill are the publishers of business communications textbooks, including the textbook I used in college. A little touch of irony, if you like that sort of thing, huh?

    I was pleased to see that Matt found my post through a Google News Alert. Fascinating!

Howdy!
