Many of you will have read the excellent guest post by Ben Lumley writer at 6aliens.com last week. It was fantastic and got a great response. Thank you Ben for taking the time to do this.

How to make a difference whilst making your fortune is one of the most popular posts we’ve ever put up and very much at the heart of the ethos of The Big Red Tomato Company – it’s all about putting something back and making a difference.

I’m delighted to announce that Ben has kindly agreed to do a regular guest slot here on the last Friday of each month.

He will be starting with a series called “how to make a difference” and cover topics such as:

How to make a difference when commenting

How to make a difference on Twitter and

How to make a difference to your customers

I’m very excited to be working with Ben as he will not only bring his wit and wisdom to the posts but also insights from the mind that wrote Yoda was into personal development – 6 life lessons from a Jedi Master .

Ben describes himself as a teacher, trainer instructor and geek and 6aliens as the geeks guide to self development. Go visit his site and subscribe to his RSS feed [not sure what RSS is? See our post what is RSS] and don’t forget to follow him on Twitter!

Please comment on his posts and retweet.

Welcome Ben!
