Seth Godin does preach mostly common sense. His skill is the knack to add quirk to the examples keeping us engaged. As with Purple Cow and his other offerings, there aren’t any lightening bolts in his new book TRIBES, just an interesting take on current and historical topical issues and events.

Yes Seth seems like a very smart man. I guess you need to be to have several successful books and to start a massive network like squidoo. I think I’ll have to find some more of his videos and see what else he has to say.

I was a little worried attempting to restart my online business during this recession, but I too had the opinion that this would result in less competition. On the flip side, with the massive layoffs, many other people may be trying to make a buck online. So I guess that does add competition, but likely not serious competition.

Many people think that recession is an awful time to start making money on the internet. And this is exactly why it’s easier to start doing it now – there’s a lot less competition.

Great issues Seth pointed out. It’s very encouraging to know that even
during this hard economic times, indeed some people can get very rich.
I think there is always that paradox. I believe we also need to make a
step by step plan for us to succeed.

On question: where could I get a listing of all these internet language and jargons?

thanks

Seth is a stud. “How do I build value today?” is definitely the right question. I’ll have to post that on my wall here at the office.

Apart from the very valid things that Seth talks about, I shall simply state this. In a down economy, the market does not disappear. It shrinks. It means that you have to go after a larger piece of the pie than your competitors. You need to do everything necessary to achieve that single purpose.

Seth Godin made a good point about it being the best time, as more people are dropping out of the game. It is also the best value money wise to invest

It is not a fluke that the guy has books out there, and has had major success!

Thanks for the list. Most of these are pretty clear cut. I think companies that can succeed in a down economy set themselves up for really tremendous growth when the economy bounces back. Some of the greatest companies in history set themselves up for growth by planning for the next boom

What you need at the moment is some kind of “Beat the recession how to” social network. Somebody always makes millions if not billions from every recession. You just need to think out of the box.
