Hi, my name is Jamie O'Connell and I run a business called Credit Control Solutions Ltd.
I set the company up in January 2001 and currently employ 6 staff.
From here on in, I will update my daily diary with precisely what I have been doing - you will experience my highs, my lows and my mediocre days.
The idea behind this is for new and existing entrepreneurs to learn from my experiences. That's not to say I know everything; far from it in fact. I am learning new things each day and it is because I am open to learning new things that I will succeed. I am looking for other entrepreneurs to post their experiences on this blog in order that we can help each other.
My diaries will be a frank and honest appraisal of my day - it will be a no holds barred diary. This blog is not a resource on "how to become and entrepreneur". It will be written from the heart.
Most business blogs that I have looked at all seem to be run by egotistical people that want the world to know how clever they are. This will certainly not be my approach
At the moment I am a relatively unknown entrepreneur, but, my business is about to be launched into orbit, so, expect to hear a lot about me in the future.
Thanks for reading,
Jamie O'Connell - Credit Control Solutions Ltd .....Making Your Cash Flow.....

Hi Simon,
Thanks for your comments.
You should definitely set up your own Blog - I guarantee that if handled correctly, your blog will end up being the biggest referer of people to your website. This will ultimately mean more business.
Cheers,

PS - I see what you man about the spell checker I'm not sure how to spell "definitely"!

Having met with you only today Jamie you are obviously a great enthusiast for the cause. The more I see about blogging the more it seems it would be worth having a go myself. I just wish there was a spell check in the comments box!

Hi Richard,
Thank you for your kind comments.
Had a look at your site - looking good. I would suggest that you set up some type of "Recruitemnt" or "Health" Blog. This will certainly help get your name into the wider market. It is also a good way of interacting with and helping others.
I started Bloging about 6 months ago - it has had a phenomenal effect on my business. I only wish I had done it years ago. It has helped to drive immense amounts of traffic to my website.
From a marketing perspective, Bloging is well worth the time and effort. To coin one of my favourite phrases "IT'S A NO BRAINER"
Incidentally, another good way of driving traffic to your site is to make comments on succesful blogs (like this one). This helps to build "links" to your site. Links are one of the factors that determine your rankings within most major seacrh engines especially Google.
Good luck with your new venture and please keep in touch
Regards,
Jamie O "Making Your Cash Flow"
