Many of you have been asking us to start bringing in guests from other niches. Mitch contacted me recently and when I saw what he was up to, I knew he’d be a really interesting guest to have on the show. After all, the guy makes a living by watching sports all day. It sounds like an American Dream to me:

• The Importance of Examining What You Are Doing and questioning whether you are happy
• Why Everybody is an Expert at Something
• The Progression of blogs that eventually resulted in SportsChatPlace
• How He’s grown His Traffic So much that an Ad Agency Manages all his Advertising Efforts
• The Importance of Good Design
• How To Start Doing Video Effectively and How Video Enables You Build a Personal Relationship with Your Audience
• How he recruits writers to help him run his blog
• The Key to Finding Good Writers for Your Blog
• Why Page Views Play A Critical Component
• Why Alexa Ranking is Meaningless
• How he went 1.5 years without making a dime and got contacted by a large ad agency

Mitch is an avid football fan who happens to also posses the memory of an elephant and a winning strategy that works across all sports. He's also been known to talk a good game but also has always been known as one not afraid to put his money where his mouth is. If you're a sports fan, check out his site at Sportschatplace.
