My Blogging Guru is Famous!
When I started this blog back in April 2006 I was aiming for a quick start — that is, a very compact learning curve. So I placed an ad on Craig’s List and a man named Stephen Labuda answered my ad. He was starting out as a self-employed web and blog traffic guy. He got me up and running on WordPress, has helped me along the way with tons of technical stuff, redesigned the look of the blog a few years ago, and so on. This week Stephen, whose Agency3 now employs four staffers, is featured in a Business Week story on “homepreneurs,” and how it’s cool to work from home these days. A quote from the story:
Ask Stephen Labuda, the 35-year-old president of Agency3, a Web development firm he runs from his home in Cambridge, Mass. A former programmer at Deutsche Bank, Labuda started building Web sites as a side job in 2003 and took the venture full time three years later. Agency3’s revenue is in the millions, and Labuda is about to hire his fifth employee, who will work remotely, like the rest of the staff and the slew of contractors he taps. “I’m not intending to go rent office space,” he says.
Here’s a link to the full story on Stephen Labuda. Congratulations!
