It’s that time of the week again where I belt out some of my favorite finds from across the web over the last week, I decided to avoid going with a different name for this post like I did with last week’s Weekly Rewind, needless to say I still hate the title of this series.
Blog of the Week
I have been stopping by this site with a very unique title and some very good business articles as of late, Asswass is the blog and for some reason this donkey looking cartoon character has me hooked and waiting for daily updates. This site is very easy on the eyes and packed with excellent information about business and blogging, oh yeah and I can’t forget it has plenty of polls to vote on.

The Close Out
I don’t really have a lot to say about closing out last week except for the fact that I felt I had a very productive week and we made some excellent moves in regards to our tanning salon business and the results seem to be showing instantly. I wrote a lot of posts last week and some of you might have missed some of the blogging tips or general posts I posted, here is a list of my posts from last week.

Looking Ahead
I really need to get my August recap done for the Extreme John blog as well as for Extreme Tan and Smoothies, I also never pulled off the list of excellent business’s that provide excellent customer service in the Tampa Bay area that I was suppose to do last week, that will be on my list this week.
I am excited to see the results we get from our Facebook ad that we placed for the $5 Spray Tan Tour and the Extreme Tan and Smoothies Facebook Group, I plan on having some things changed on the Extreme Tan and Smoothies site this week and Facebook will be part of some of those changes.
Feel free to leave a comment or subscribe to my rss feed and if you aren’t sick and tired of me by now than you should probably follow me on Twitter for the full dosage of EJ that you can possibly have. I hope everyone has an excellent Labor Day weekend.

@Tech-Freak Stuff, see there’s one hole in this Firefox Do Follow Greasemonkey plugin, for whatever reason it doesn’t fire off a Do Follow message when your page is loaded which is why I asked.

Great round up. I that your FB ad works well for your business. BTW, I do not know if you remember, but I do have a chain of Day SPA’s, which includes a tanning salon (3 beds). Guess in a way, we are on the same industry (at least on the artificial tanning side of it).

Thanks for the generous gadgets (aka the CommentLuv and stuff). OK, I admit I did come initially because of that thing, but you know what’s clever… whenever I read something interested, I’m kinda forced to read whatever else you’ve got. And now I feel the uncontrollable urge to read what else you’ve got, and find out what makes you Extreme
