I culd not find even one forum online, where the discussion is about business topics like General Business, Marketing, PR, HR, Media etc ... Business topics ... etc... Do you know any online business forums?
for entrepreneurship and business I like www.youngentrepreneur.com but www.younggogetter.com is good as well. Google "business forum" and I am sure you will find more then you could visit in a lifetime.
Try one more forum http://forums.smallbusinesscomputing.com/index.php But I would suggest to find niche business forums where you can discuss with others who are in the same business as you are. And usually there are many consultants on such type of forums. They exist. Just spend some time to find a business forum which serve your needs the best.
I used to be a member of youngentrepreneur.com, but have since left because I noticed quite a bit of spam and quite a bit of "younger" entrepreneurs that well, didnt know what they were doing and it made for a very annoying community. This forum is great for entrepreneurship; Im currently an entrepreneurship and marketing major in college working for a VERY large company performing organic search engine optimization, but plan to start my own internet marketing company in a few years.
I agree and though I am deemed "young" the site loses alot of worth because it is constantly spammed and it is "tolerated". It diminishes its value but I still use it because there are some like minded individuals on the site.
My Good buddy almost like a brother runs a GREAT AAA++ forum Its called Money Forum.com , No BS , straight up hardcore knowledge with some of the top players in the field, Tell Him Sundaybrew Sent ya for a Free T-shirt!!!
I run one at http://forums.bizammo.com attached to my business network, but it was dead for months, and I'm only starting to try to revive it right now.
I have started something similar called discussmoney.com Brand new, but the other sites give me inspiration.
Thanks, This is really good collection of advices ... seems to me that the two are MOST WANTED? www.businessforum.net and www.youngentrepreneur.com.
Would you better discuss business here, on DG, or go there, on the specialized forum? [I am interested in the loyalty level to this forum]
It's not about loyalty to DP. This isn't a business forum, even if there's one section devoted to it. Most businesspeople here are online business owners, and a lot of important business topics aren't discussed. If you want to network with a more general group of entrepreneurs, you have to go elsewhere.
ukbusinessforums is the best. There's a few others here in the UK but they're all pretty much the same with the same members.
