Win Tickets to Preds vs. Red Wings Dec. 10

The good folks over at Save The Predators are running a promotion that could net you a four-pack of cheap Nashville Predators tickets to see them host the Detroit Red Wings on December 10. Interested? I thought so...


Save the Predators
For those unaware, Save The Predators has been raising funds which are used to purchase tickets to Nashville Predators games, then those tickets are donated to local charities, such as Big Brothers/Big Sisters. They sell t-shirts and other gear at their eBay storefront, and the contest is pretty straightforward:

"Whichever single buyer buys the most total dollar value in Save The Predators merchandise between now and midnight on December 8 will win ALL FOUR tickets to see The Predators play The Red Wings at Sommet Center on December 10. Game time is 7:00 PM. These tickets have a face value of $55.00 Each and are in Section 308, Row M, Seats 1 thru 4!"

All the details can be found in this post over at the Predators message boards. So head over to their eBay store, pick up some STP gear (perfect for holiday gift-giving) and take your shot at winning those tickets. Heck, get three of your friends and shop together under one eBay account if that's what it takes!

Celebrating a milestone month

I've been remiss in providing regular updates on my quest to turn this whole sports-blogging hobby into at least something of a significant side income, if not a career, but good news has a way of prompting action. That, and I've been heads-down busy working on a few different fronts to push things forward...

Social Media, Internet Marketing, and Real, Paying Customers - it really works!

Applying the basic tenets of internet marketing (SEO best practices and social media network building) have helped me grow the readership and engagement over at On The Forecheck tremendously in recent years, but lately I've been wondering if those same techniques could be applied to small- or medium-sized local businesses, to help them drive real, tangible business results. I'm talking about not just drawing idle hockey fans looking to a blog so they can muse over line combinations, but helping businesses connect with potential customers in ways that otherwise wouldn't occur. Recently, I was able to help make just such a thing happen, and it shows just how great the opportunities are for small, local businesses which may not have the resources or skills available to extend their brand effectively on the internet.

New directions for OTF

While my writings about the Nashville Predators are being posted over at OnTheForecheck.com, rather than this old site, I thought it might be worth touching base here every now and again to touch on "meta" issues, related to blogging in general. In particular, these days I'm very much interested in how I can turn this time-consuming hobby into a bit of a revenue generator. Since I receive a small stipend from SB Nation to run OTF, I declared that income on my taxes last year, and realized that I should also be recording my expenses (for example, parking fees downtown when I go to cover a practice or press conference, mileage, etc.). It was a bit of a reality slap to see exactly how much I was spending on this endeavor, and with 3 kids heading off to college in 9-10 years, there's a bit of a financial imperative to turn the tables there. So here's a few ideas I'm considering/pursuing: A website devoted to hockey gear and accessories, HockeyGearHQ.com . The idea...
