    LinkedIn - Upgrade - is it worth it?

    I sometimes question if the free linkedin is worth the cost!! I don't much like it from a UX point of view and simply do not find it engaging. I've hundreds of "connections" but have failed to generate a single job, or even a lead from Linkedin.

    How to value a business?

    Seriously though - its worth what someone will pay for it, simple as! Advertise it at what YOU think its worth and see what happens,.. if you get no bites then you're over pricing! If I was buying I'd expect to pay 30k or so,...

    Telesales person or affiliate marketing?

    The idea is that I want to outsource the sales part of the business - at least partially - freeing me up to concentrate more on the part of the job I am passionate about. I'm just unsure what is the best way to go about outsourcing,..

    Paying someone to run your E-Commerce website?

    If your business generates that little income, I would question the amount of effort these guys will put in for their 20% share. A new ecommerce business is built on passion & determination - profits are often not seen for some time!

    What to do?

    Perhaps you can turn this into a PR opportunity - the "a community focused business seeks a new manager with local knowledge to grow a local resource" story could get you some newspaper and maybe even radio coverage....
