			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The things I write are inherently boring.  My girlfriend has been in a creative writing class for the past couple weeks and according to her, I write with too many verbs of &#8216;being.&#8217;  I am, I was, and things like that.  I need more action verbs to make everything spicier.  I also need more media.</p>
<p>No one really reads this blog, despite its random hits from Greece and other awesome places around the globe.  They aren&#8217;t readers, they are just checking the website out.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not knocking myself I&#8217;m just saying I realize this blog lacks alot of what it would need to gather a sustainable readership.  My improvement upon this will come no sooner than Now.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have heard a saying along the lines of: &#8220;There are an infinite amount of ways to screw something up, but there is only one way to do something right,&#8221; or something similar.  My reply to that, and most other sayings is: &#8220;bullshit.&#8221; I read about people doing things right all the time.  They make similar things, say similar things, live similar lifestyles, but they do things entirely different from one another and maintain success.  Also another blanket statement, most people spend there time doing bullshit.  Bullshit &#8211; nothing thats wrong or right, but, more or less, pointless.</p>
<p>There is so much bullshit on the web and somehow people are becoming successful.  I sit behind my computer, no different from the next schmuck behind a screen, thinking their opinion matters.  What evoked this realization is that this question: &#8220;What do I have to add to the web?&#8221;</p>
<p>The answer: &#8220;Not a damn thing&#8221;</p>
<p>My mere participation in the bullshit conversation we call Web 2.0 somehow adds to it richness.  Somehow, if my own personality shines through, maybe some talent too, a couple poor suckers will even read this post.  I&#8217;m a poor sucker too.  I feed into the bullshit all the time.  As time goes, more and more people will start watching the same station as me.  Viewers will grow, and maybe I&#8217;ll have hopped aboard at just the right time, in just the right current.  Some people will be caught in the same drift, and I will be heard.</p>
<p>All I know is that silence never leads to anywhere fast.  Talking may not get me anywhere quicker, but it has better odds.  On the web, there is only one way to screw things up, and a million ways to do it right.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You don&#8217;t need to look outside to see that the weather is different than it was 20 years ago.  Third world countries are beginning to show signs of prosperity that was once a privilege of the world&#8217;s leading countries.  The world is changing at a phenomenal pace, sometimes for better, sometimes for worse.  C2B is a term I made to simulate the 180 degree turn marketing has made in recent history.  The business cycle is nothing new.  What is new is the change in how we perceive the business cycle.  The entire business process both begins and ends with consumers.</p>
<p>There are millions of websites and articles found around the internet that discuss the new style of marketing and describe peers more in depth.  They do it much better than I can.  I don&#8217;t even want to provide the links to the articles, not because of laziness, but because you need to live on the internet to understand it.  The internet is like a new world that needs to be experienced and traveled before you understand the people, culture, and language. Articles describing the changes and new practices will only help you to better summarize your experience.  Without an online experience, the words do not mean much.  New rules may not seem to apply since old school marketing still works for consumers, but in the long-term, you will loose to those who understand peers.  I am not creating a new way of business interaction on the internet, nor am I involved in any current revolutionary process.  I am simply following the cues of others and taking their word for it.  My expertise comes from the fact that I am a peer (enlightened consumer) and I know what works for me.</p>
<p>Consumer 2 Business will serve to help you understand the paradigm shift that is taking place through the eyes of a peer.  If I accomplish my goals, you will gain a deeper understanding of your current marketing and learn how to develop long term relationships with peers.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A filler on who I am and what I&#8217;m attempting to accomplish.</p>
<p>Marketing, relationships, and technology make up the majority of my thought process.  I&#8217;m starting this blog as a vent for all the steam that builds up in me.  I&#8217;m not referring to the steam from anger, but instead, the steam of creativity.  This creativity that builds inside will be my motivation for putting words in this space as often as possible.</p>
<p>I read far too many blogs, watch far too many commercials, and test too many new sites to remain a non-participant in the semantic web.  This day marks a new beginning for me.</p>
<p>Hopefully, as I progress on this blog, I&#8217;ll acquire more quality in my grammar, more efficiency in my writing process, and more understanding for what people want to read.  Up until this point, all I&#8217;ve known is what has interested me and the best ways in which to acquire those things.  Now, I&#8217;ll be on the other side.  So without much further ado, here I go&#8230;.</p>
