Publications by Barb Tomlin
Barb has been writing since childhood. It was not until after turning 40
that she began to take herself seriously as a writer. By that time she had
already written and published three books for the arts and crafts market
(none of which are in print today).
Today, Barb's greatest passion as a writer is producing online content.
Her work continues to be published in mainstream print, however, most often
under psuedo names or as a ghost writer for other well-known experts in the
small business / SOHO arena. Yes, Virginia, things are never quite what they
seem in the real world, either.
- Angels
Flying Close To The Ground With Money For YOU!
This was originally published for Your Own Business on the Prodigy Network in
1991. Barb continues to update resources and other information so it continues
to be one of the most read pages on our site. If you are thinking about starting
your own business and/or find yourself short on ideas of how to fund it, you
need to read this article.
- Attitude
Influences Success
This was originally published for the Entrepreneur's Exchange on the Prodigy
Network in 1993. Barb also updates resources information so it continues
to be one of the most read pages on our site.
- First
Steps in Website Development
This is one of the popular checklists Barb came up with in 1995. Since
then, she has written several white papers (most reaching book length at
this point)
on a variety of subjects relating to web site development, promotion and
maintenance.
- Why
Go Online For Business?
Pre-qualify yourself before taking the big step. In 1995 most businesses
were wondering about the answer to this question, whereas today, the necessity
of
having an online presence is almost a no-brainer.
- Building
Your Online Business (BYOB) (Work in Progress)
A virtual publication, this white paper is quickly growing into an electronic
book. It is filled with street-smart facts you can apply to your web development
project, whether your publication be for business or pleasure.
- Steps
to Successful Web Promotion (Work in Progress)
Another virtual publication, this is actually part of the Westward
Connections Web Promotion Center, an entire section of our site devoted to
the topic of web site promotion.
- Cybersmart
Publicity (Work in Progress)
Yet another virtual publication, much of this material was taken from a booklet
Barb wrote on publicity for the Arts and Crafts market in 70's and expanded on
during her work for the Prodigy Network. That information has been or is being
revised and new information pertinent to publicity in cyberspace has been added.
One of the most important and popular pages are in Chapter 4. They are the distribution
list for news releases and Where to
Find Media Contacts. This publication is especially helpful for the do-it-yourselfers.
