Sly Bald Guys' Blog

Today an article I wrote titled "What internet marketers can learn from a trucker" was featured at ShoeMoney.com.

What is ShoeMoney.com?

It's a blog that was started by Jeremy Schoemaker to help bloggers and other website owners with marketing and expanding their web presence.

How did I get featured on ShoeMoney.com?

Jeremy was heading to PubCon in Vegas and needed guest bloggers to fill in for him while he was away. He asked his readers to submit their posts on "What internet marketers can learn from X" and wanted us to fill in the X. I'm always amazed at how complex people try to be in designing their sites and wanted to write something that would help them realize that they should make it simple. Many of my truck driver friends or drivers that I've met in my life are pretty simple people so I made parallels between their job and internet marketing.

Why am I so thrilled to be featured on ShoeMoney.com?

You could say the massive amounts of traffic that Jeremy gets and the exposure that it gives me and Sly Bald Guys. Though, that's just a small portion of the thrill. To me it helps solidify the reputation of me as a blogger and Sly Bald Guys as a website.

Any other cool things about ShoeMoney.com?

Oh yea, Jeremy is Sly! That's right, he's a head shaver like many of us here at Sly Bald Guys are. Keep up the shiny dome Jeremy! And thanks for choosing my post to help fill in during your absence!

One of our members, JDOG, posted a great post on his blog.


How many times have we seen them? 3am and burning the midnight oil and we all have flicked through the countless infomercials on television advertising and touting the new cure or solution to hair loss. Whether it be the magical hair brush that stimulates your hair folicles to regenerate or the shampoo and cream that when applied, will magically create new and flowing locks to make Rapunzel jealous. For years I have found these ads to be quite entertaining. Especially the "before" and "after" shots.

You've got 1 man, call him Peter. Peter is introduced and a birds eye view camera shot "before" picture is posted in the right hand corner of the screen showing a bald spot on the crown and a receding hairline on Peters head. Peter then starts to recite an obviously pre written monologue about how his life started to go downhill when he started loosing his hair. His wife didnt want to be with him sexually, he got teased by coworkers. His self esteem went out the window and he became a recluse and withdrew from friends because he was so embarrased about his hair loss. Read More
