Mailbag: Why aren’t you writing Taipan anymore?

Posted January 9, 2008

Question: I opened my January 2008 issue of Taipan and found that the entire editorial crew has been changed. There was a note by one Sandy Franks that talked noncommitantly about change and growth. But I’ve been a Taipan member for years and don’t know those new people from Adam! What happened there?

Answer: Last fall, long-time Taipan editor and publisher J. Christoph Amberger decided to continue publishing on international and domestic profit opportunities via new media, through TodaysFinancialNews.com.

“It is quite difficult to change the structure of an existing business, especially in the publishing field,” said Christoph. “Over the years, you accumulate so many processes and process managers that it becomes difficult to re-establish the immediate connection with the reader and customer. And that’s what made our e-letters so effective and fun between 2000 and 2005. The new software we’re using re-establishes this immediacy, via the newsfeed, which can be received instantly on news readers and cellphones.”

Taipan regulars will no doubt notice that the “old” editorial core team is now at TFN. Even better, our content is free!
