Hi Jon,
Thanks for plugging the contest. One of the things I’m asking from people when they enter is that they give me their best piece of advice for other entrepreneurs. I’ve been getting some great tips!
Oh … and everyone who is a fan of this blog needs to check out my interview with Jon!

Hey Jon! Thanks for the link! :)
And that sounds like a great contest… now to figure out which is the best bit of advice I can offer, lol.

@Steve, you’re very welcome, I hope many people will enter the contest :)
Hey that interview, was fun, I know I told you before, god I hate the sound of my voice on recording (that’s probably why I’m a guitar player and not a singer hehe)
@Selene no prob, that was a great post you wrote. As for the contest I’m sure you can come up with something, and you know $360 on PRWeb is very nice :)

Selene — Give a listen to a few podcast episodes (or better yet … subscribe :), maybe it will give you an idea. Like I said in episode 40 when I announced the contest, some of the best advice is quite simple.
I’ve gotten some great advice so far. I hope you enter!
