About
StGermaine.ca is an business and social media blog that started in late 2008 by me – Ryan StGermaine. The blog began as a creative outlet to share strategies with entrepreneurs on how to promote themselves through online marketing and social media. It was also designed to test new marketing ideas that I can use on my other sites – BCjobs.ca and Albertajobcentre.ca.
What have I learned?
Anyone can start an online business today using free technology. StGermaine.ca provides information for entrepreneurs and future entrepreneurs on how to market your personal brand and/or business online. Get rich schemes don’t work, but if you work with intelligence and determination, you can build a successful online business. If you have an idea for your own product or service, this site will teach you how to market it. If you want to make money promoting other companies, StGermaine.ca will show you how through affiliate marketing.
I’ll also provide you with information on free tools that will help you manage every aspect of running a business – web applications for marketing, invoicing, contact management, social media, blogging – you name it!
What do I know?
I co-founded BC Jobs Online Inc. in 2001 – a career portals technology company that owns BCjobs.ca and Albertajobcentre.ca.
I’ve served as managing director of our company since 2003 and in my role I’m responsible for corporate strategy, marketing, strategic partnerships, public relations and overall business development. Under my management, BC Jobs Online has grown to become the largest career site network in Western Canada. We have over 250,000 visits and over 1.8 million page views a month. Our company has grown using the same strategies that I share on StGermaine.ca
For anyone who dares to start their own business, I hope this blog helps you on your journey!
