Welcome to MAB on Squidoo!

 

This is an extension of the Ryze network, My Advisory Board. If you are not a member of Ryze or of MAB and if you're an entrepreneur or small business owner, please join us!

Also, please be patient with me as I get this Squidoo lens going. I'm burning the midnight oil trying to get this done so that I can launch the network. I promise I'll be adding more content in the coming days.

What do we need at MAB?

Please add your thoughts below.

Getting MAB Going 

Ideas for Features & Things to Do

All right, the MAB network is built, the Squidoo lens is published (even if it's not complete), and you're here (Woohoo, a new member!). Now let me know what you think.

Do you have ideas for things to include at the network? Would you like to help as a moderator or in some other capacity? Do you have suggestions for features to add to the MAB Squidoo lens?

Please let me know! I greatly appreciate your feedback.

Thanks, Irma, for commenting and especially for joining! As I mentioned, I'm burning the midnight oil, so I'm feeling like I've forgotten half of what I had intended for the network (a good sign that I should go to sleep)! There may be a few changes over the next few days or weeks, but I think the main parts are ready to go. Thanks again for joining! I'll see you around MAB and BEP.

Amber,

You network is very well thought out and I know it will be a huge success. At this time I can't think of anything to add.

I just announced closing my network on Ryze. For almost a year the Think Tank was a top rated network for membership and activity. This will be three top networks in six months shutting down. Ryze does not appreciate those who offer content and activity consistently and prefers to focus on less active networks. Ryze's demographics as of late lack social networking etiquette, many feel a paying network owner forum their personal billboards. and that is all they are there for.

Ryze management needs to get out of third world of social sites. A year of Sunday updates and lost posts, and other issues has seen a small exodus of long time paying members, most who ran great networks.

Gone in past year :
Sales execs - Andrew Kraft
UnMarketing = Scott Statten
B2B networking = a. garner
BusinessIIBuiness- j. Cannon
Comfy in your own shell - Sue t
Small Business Think Tank - K.Buck

Some have moved to Ning. Whats the real reason some left? No ROI, it's not all about just dollars either.
