Tatiana Bonneau talks with Jason Barnard about domain names as brand assets.

Tatiana Bonneau now works for MarkUpgrade.com and SmartBranding.com with the goal of helping entrepreneurs make better decisions about their online brands. She is interested in entrepreneurship with all its joys and pains, technology and how it affects our lives, names, business names and domains as brand assets. She is happy to help anyone with a serious interest with thoughts and ideas on any of these topics.

Every website or business has its own unique domain name. And since it plays an important role in how customers can access or find your website, entrepreneurs and business owners should consider investing in one.

The lovely Tatiana Bonneau shares her domain name expertise in this incredible episode. She explains the need for a domain strategy for businesses, its value, and the consequences of not having one. Some entrepreneurs and business owners shy away from the concept of owning a domain name because they don't know enough about it and the cost is too high, but owning a domain name comes with certain benefits, and it's important to understand how it works and how it's an asset to your brand. Tatiana also discusses some tips on buying domain names and what makes a good domain name.

As always, the show ends with passing the baton… Tatiana enthusiastically passes over the virtual baton to next week’s groovy guest, Dennis Consorte.
