From Roadtrips to Radios

As you may have noticed, the release of the highly anticipated "American Perspectives" documentary has been a bit delayed... ....by four months or so. While I'm sure it will eventually find it's way into the light, a more pressing project has been laying claim to my time.

I'm part of a team that launched Right Channel Radios, a CB radio and CB antenna online store. Born out of a desire to escape the traditional confines of cubicle life, our research led us to select the CB market as one that had strong demand relative to the number of existing competitors.

During the entire process, I've learned a great deal. I've become somewhat of an expert in CB radios and antennas, their installation, troubleshooting and selection. I've learned how to start a legal business, build relationships with wholesale suppliers, build e-commerce websites, manage customers and resolve their problems. I'm also learning a great deal about SEO (search engine optimization), market research, keyword research, traffic conversion and many other facets of internet business. We're already planning our next e-commerce entry and are eager to apply many of the lessons and skills to the next venture.

(Warning: Shameless Commercial Promotion Ahead)

If you happen to be in the market for a CB radio or antenna, swing on by the site! If you're looking to buy a Cobra CB Radio, we have a number to choose from. Thinking about a Wilson CB antenna purchase? We carry every major antenna Wilson makes. If you're really not sure if this CB radio thing is for you, why not enroll in our complimentary CB Training school? We'll walk you though selecting, installing and troubleshooting radios and antennas via a personalized email course - what could be better?

I hope you're having a glorious summer and throughly enjoying yourself. Hopefully I'll find time to finish and publish American Perspectives sometime in the next six months.........
