Takis Athanassiou — Issue #2
One Newsletter is Never Enough!
Editorial Note:
This is the second issue of the Digital Business Strategies Newsletter. This is my 3rd newsletter, because one newsletter is never enough!
Hello friends, and thank you for being here. This is my new endeavour about finding a space to share more information and strategies about our changing world and business.
I took the liberty of adding you to this newsletter as well (besides my main one here), and I hope you will find this one useful as well.
This newsletter was born as a supplement of my main newsletter with many more resources and references on how to… do things online and in digital.
Here I would collect resources and tools from all over the web that I think might be of use for you, your business and your life.
This newsletter would be compiled periodically (1–2 times a month) and would cover subjects of digital strategy and things I believe that would be useful to you.
Of course, many things would be repeated for me main newsletter subscribers, but I think the final output would compensate you for your attention and time.
I hope you enjoy it this newsletter as well!
