Getting To Know The Digital Nomad That I Met In Buenos Aires – with Colin Wright
on Jan 18, 2010 - 5:47 PM PSTI met Colin Wright at a small get-together that my wife and I organized at the new apartment we're renting in Buenos Aires. He told us how he's growing his business while traveling. Since I'm noticing that many people in the Mixergy audience are curious about the digital nomad lifestyle, I invited him on to talk about his experiences.

What do you think of my use of program minutes -- instead of a transcript?
This program was sponsored by
RichWP - Get a premium Wordpress theme that you can customize easily so your web site can project the professional look that your business deserves. (And if you do, email me a link!)
Shopify - Thousands of stores are built using Shopify because it's easy to set up and manage. Tim Ferriss recently announced a contest that offers $100,000 prize for the highest grossing store. Go start your store before Jan 1.
Grasshopper - Entrepreneurs (like me) love and use Grasshopper because it offers all the features of the big, expensive phone systems (like multiple extensions, music on hold and call forwarding) but it works with any phone and starts at only $9.95 a month.
