Contact
I can be contacted in the following ways:
Email: indiebusiness [at] gmail [dot] com
Phone: (704) 291-7280
Postal Mail: send an email to request the mailing address
I answer all legitimate inquiries, regardless of how they are received. However, due to the volume of email I receive, and the fact that IBN member queries are prioritzed, it may take 24 to 48 hours for me to respond to you via email and phone. Please be patient.
Websites
In the meantime, many questions about small business success are answered right here at this blog or at my popular social networking site. My most frequently asked questions have to do with our products liability insurance program and other IBN member benefits, my weekly radio show and how to join IBN. If you are looking for soap, candle, aromatherapy and/or cosmetics making ingredients and supplies, please visit our supply search engine. You may also enjoy my other blogs:

Notes About Email
If you email us and do not receive a response within 48 hours (please allow additional time on weekends and holidays), it might be because you have not set your spam filter to allow email from us. If your spam filter blocks our email reply, we will not be able to follow up with you so make sure that if you email us and ask for a reply, you create a means for us to get that reply to you.
Also, if I reply to your email and immediately get a message asking me to click a link to help you eliminate spam, I will not do it. If you email me and know you need a reply, please take a moment to first add my email address to your white list yourself.
Also, please note that if you email me from a location that blocks email, such as from a place of employment, their servers may block our reply. Please send email from the best email address for you to receive a reply.
Following these suggestions will allow us to focus on serving you as promptly as possible, and not figuring out the best way to contact you.
Thank you for contacting me, and I look forward to hearing from you!
