Newbie Guide to Google Reader and More

Google Reader is an RSS reader that allows you to subscribe to and read RSS feeds (blogs) in one place. There are lots of ways to do this, but I like the way Google Reader has grown. (really nice iPhone interface on the mobile site too.)

My advice to anyone who wants to be better marketer is to read - lots - Google Reader makes it easy and automatic - a big plus for the time strapped small business marketer.

  • If you want write a blog, you should read blogs

  • If you want to be a better sales person, you should read sales advice
  • If you want to educate others, educate yourself
