Here’s another edition of the Weekly Biz Buzz. How did your business perform this week? For me, it went by slowly and I was very lazy due of the rainy season (excuses

I really miss the inputs from you. I noticed a rise in terms of blog traffic and newsletter subscription after the relaunch but I have not seen a lot of blog comments. Spam count dropped significantly as well (if that matters

A big “Thank You” to Paul Simister and Jared O’ Toole for commenting on my blog posts this week! 
With that, let’s get started with this edition of Weekly Biz Buzz.
