Jon's Business Update
=============================================

This weeks newsletter is more of a nudge or reminder in case any of you haven't visited the site this week.

I came up with the question:

What would it take for me to become an A-List blogger ?

and posted a series of calls for feedback:

http://artofmoney.org/internet-business/help-me-improve-this-site-win-a-prize/

I even decided to offer a prize to the most valuable [my choice] comment in the series.

The contest ends tonight [Monday October 16] at ~11:59p Mountain time.

I plan on doing a complete breakdown of the process, but I have been very pleasantly surprised by a couple of factors:

1.) People will leave passionate comments if you address them with an open tone.

2.) Collaboration really is the strength of the web.

The direction for changes to the site is not what I would come up with on my own.

The last major revelation has been [sorry if this sounds corny...it's not meant to] is that Art of Money does not belong to me...it belongs to the readers.

I believe this is an important lesson for any business and a very healthy attitude to take.

Like I said, more on the analysis of the process this week, but for now you can check out the link above for the launch post, or one of the ones below for my take [and the readers' comments about] the individual elements of the site.
