Blog in Review: Top 15 Posts of 2018
The 80/20 Rule is a basic business guideline. It says that any business will get 80% of its revenue from just 20% of its offerings or services. For example, we should expect McDonald’s to earn 80% of its revenue from just 20% of its menu items. This makes sense; almost everyone orders either a Big Mac or a Quarter-Pounder with Cheese. Really, most of the menu is revenue neutral; the only reason to even offer a lot of that stuff is to make it easier for Big Mac lovers to bring their non-Big Mac friends into the store. It’s the Big Macs that are keeping McDonald’s in the black. Happy New Year! Blogging is the same but moreso. Much more than half of this blog’s readership has come from a handful of posts, and the rest is here either to entertain me as a writer or to give legitimate fans of my writing a reason to come back on a semi-regular basis.
