interview on the Motley Fool Radio Show. He was from the word go a very interesting person (not just a CEO).
I was drawn to him coz, of his ideals and values. He respected Warren Buffet, Sun Tzu and Asian Culture. Overstock is not a very famous company but sure its stck is doing well, but that is the last thing that caught my attention.
I was intrigued coz, I read he had a PhD degree from Stanford and is now a Entrepreneur. I mean isnt this nice, he was able to give both knowledge and will soon make a heap of $$ (& hopefully give it all back to the society).
He is a libertarian, already doing his bit to make the lesser previliged artisans from the develoeping countries find the rich market thru overstock's world stock
program.
Today overstock has been making splashy tv ads, but interestingly the BIG "O" ads were brainchild of a emplyee low in the rung.. nice.
This guys sure is a mavrick , one website had this about him,"..A multifaceted man, he received his bachelor’s degree from Dartmouth College, a master’s degree from Cambridge University as a Marshall Scholar, and a doctorate in philosophy from Stanford University. He speaks Mandarin, was a pro boxer, and bicycled across the US three times. "
his life is interetsingly motely- ..From all that I have read he is surely a neat human being too..

...I am in the typical quandary of the Internet small business owner. I am trying to find a submission/optimization
company that will do a good job for us at a reasonable price. .."
Let me give u just one references (by experts)
telling you why you should pay attention to searchengines and effet they have on your online marketing.
The reason why I am unwilling to focus on this side is coz, if you have made the decision to have an online store you probably know the imporatnce of search engines.
There are lots of people out there making claims to make it work for you, promising the moon for the price of soda. The price is right but u wont get the moon!
