Small Biz America Interview on Business Ethics. This was a really fun one; we got to talk about small businesses who violate good ethics, and how that backfires, and also how lawyers and compliance issues get in the way of real communication (e.g., this bag of peanuts contains peanuts. Hello, that’s why we’re buying it). Click here for the replay.
On the Wealthy Freelancer website I’ve just published a light-hearted and very useful article, Five Tips for Frugal Freelance Success–think of it as a bonus tip for this month. Maybe I should make this category hear/meet/read 
For a little while longer, you can hear my InspireMeToday.com luminary interview at no charge, using this link. You’ll hear about my past in dire poverty, the local environmental campaign that inspired me to start the Business Ethics Pledge, and a great story about how interfering with a client’s unfortunate direction led to some wonderful things. Also some stories from host Gail Goodwin’s remarkable life. And you’ll even hear the specific technique I use to tap into a higher power when I need advice!
