John Abbott Continuing Education

Well, as I’ve eluded to some of you that I had a big announcement to make before Christmas and now that all of the details have been settled…I’ve decide to go back to school! Only this time people will be bringing ME apples…(do people still do that?)! :0)

I decided that after all of this time working in the communications field and running my own small business that it was about time I started sharing some of the things that I’ve learned. So starting February 11th, 2009 I will be teaching a course as part of John Abbott College’s Continuing Education Program called “How to Market Your Small Business”.

I believe that when times get tough, it’s time to get creative and innovative with your product’s, your service’s and most importantly, your marketing. Now is the time to invest in the future and look inwardly at how you can improve so you can prepare for the next boom.

The course is taught in English and is open to anybody with a small business, whether you run it from home or you have a small factory with 50 employee’s, to teach practical ways of marketing your product or service to your target customer’s.

The course number is 900-309-00-01, it’s a 6 weeks course every Wednesday night 7-10 p.m.

If you own a small business I hope you’ll come and learn with me. If you know somebody with a small business they could probably use a course like this right now, do them a favour and let them know about it.

Look for this in the Calendar

You can own your own home…with a subterranean fortress!

The Underground Fortress is an 8th wonder of the world! It is an unbelievable feat of engineering. The Fortress goes a total of 45 feet under the house! That is below sea level! The fortress has over 1600 sq. ft. of living area, plus hundreds of more square feet of passages and secrets rooms. more>>>

Sure, you’re laughing now….

No! ...fishing allowed!

That sign should be read…. “No! …fishing allowed!” It’s all in the interpretation I guess…

Don’t ask me how (because I don’t remember) but I just discovered this band called Deerhunter. They’re a 5 piece group from Atlanta. As you may or may not know I enjoy chilling out to ambient music most of the time but still hold a soft spot for my old punk/ska days…well, this group is listed as Ambient/Garage/Punk on their MySpace page combining the best of both worlds for me!

Have a listen, I like “Nothing ever Happened”… http://www.myspace.com/deerhunter

Now here’s the cool thing, as I was listening to their songs I read their tour itinerary and they’re in Montréal TONIGHT!

7:30 - Theatre Plaza 6505 Saint Hubert, Montreal…it’s $15 to get in. There are 2 other bands with them: Times New Viking and Neighborhood Council
