Brent's Biz Talk posts

Biznik works - my blog traffic is multipling as a result

Thanks to becoming a member on Biznik I have meet and talked to some wonderful people. One of these people is Rick Itzkowich whom I had the pleasure to interview on Friday. His interview regarding social networking is now posted on my blog at:

Rick also did some promo for my blog and I am having record breaking traffic right now. Feeling really good - it is giving me more incentive to host my first Biznik event.

Thanks Rick - thanks Biznik!

What is the proper etiquette for getting blog interviews?

Ok, LinkedIn isn't posting any of my questions for some reason on their Q&A, so I'll use biznik instead :-)

I have an SEO/Marketing based blog and would like to conduct interviews with other professionals. Since I am an employee, I don't want to look like I am propping up a competitor(s), but I believe we all have experiences to share and learn from. I am also open to reciprocal interviews too. I have done one interview so far, but it was with a co-worker, so there was no issues there. Any one have experience conducting interviews on their blog and have tips for proper blog interview etiquette?

Thanks!

Looking for networking partners in Central Florida

I am a website consultant for a company with clients in 47 states and Canada, so I can do business with others regardless of their location, but it would be great to have more Biznik members in Central Florida to network with. Any tips to grow Biznik membership in Central Florida? (Yep, I'm word-of-mouthing to everyone I know with invites now)

Thanks!

Brent Haeseker from NetSource

Hi all, just joined yesterday and wanted to introduce myself. I am a website consultant for NetSource Technologies, where I help create online solutions for our clients and guide in the SEO and online marketing strategies. I have been with the company since 2000 when I started as a website designer.

Outside of work-related discussions, some of my ice-breakers would be I've shared a musical stage with country music legend George Jones, almost died mountain climbing, been charged by a moose (and he didn't take credit), got a national ranking in mountain bike racing, own chickens, been inside a funnel cloud of a tornado and had a real live 30 pound bald eagle wear my jacket.
