Subj: 61 page online biz guide, trolls, free event ticket + Bali pics
How’s it going?
If you’re around in Sydney or Port Macquarie next week, you can get along to the following events and watch my Killer Digital Strategies presentation.
Wednesday 4th May — CeBIT at Sydney Olympic Park at 2pm. Tickets here.
Thursday 5th May — Digital Marketing Day Out at Port Macquarie at 11.15am Tickets here.
If you can’t make it here’s a short video where I explain how to handle trolls on social media. To be honest, Toby and I are grateful we haven’t had too many vicious comments from trolls over the years but like many people we speak with it is a big concern for us too.
If you’re worried about how you’d handle it, check out this short interview I did with the folks at Hello Food Service. It’s got a hospitality spin yet it applies to your business too!
Here’s my recent interview with John McGrath who’s written 3 books, founded McGrath Estate Agents and has a popular podcast called Million Dollar Agent. I’ve been fortunate enough to speak at several conferences with John over the last year and admire how he’s used content to help build his profile and business.

In our interview he talks about the value in writing books, the impact his podcast has had and what activity has led to the 10X improvements in his business.

Want to start an online business?
I’m writing to you from Uluwatu in Bali where I’ve been on a work-cation for the last two weeks. And today Toby is off to Queenstown in NZ for a week of R&R with his young family.
Thankfully this is all possible since we have an online component to our business. It means we are able to work from pretty much anywhere as long as there is Wifi. Mind you, Toby is going offline and phone-off, so he’ll be off the grid!

Yes, we still love doing in-person speaking, consulting and corporate training, yet we no longer rely on it for all of our revenue. We’ve been able to package up our IP and sell it as online programs. Plus as affiliates we can sell other people’s programs that we know will be valuable to you too. These two revenue streams have added a whole new dimension to our business.
These days you would say Bluewire Media is a hybrid of online and offline. And it’s the online side of things that is most liberating because it’s scalable and you can do it from home, Bali or your favourite cafe.
If you want to start a pure online business or add an online revenue stream to your existing ‘bricks and mortar’ product or service business, it’s totally possible.
