Is Your Website Looking a Little Dated?

If you had an office that you neglected to take care of, before long it would be in need of repairs, and a clean up. If left long enough, it would probably end up with broken windows and covered in graffiti! It certainly wouldn’t be an inviting and appealing place for clients and customers to visit. It’s really not that much different for a website. Building a website and then failing to maintain it is likely to end up losing you business. (more…)

Become the Thought Leader and Supercharge Your Database

I recently bumped into this blog post which got me thinking about thought leadership and how it can rapidly grow your database.Become the thought leader in your industry, a valuable resource for your prospects. People are social beings and like to buy from people they know, like and trust. They also will buy when they are ready to buy, not when a salesman is ready to sell. For this reason, building a database for ongoing communication and relationship building can be the best way to grow your business. It keeps you in front of your prospects, building the relationship until they are ready to buy.Even if you are approaching someone who has bought from you in the past and you have a great relationship, they may not be ready to buy

Think Big! The Secret to Entrepreneurial Success

Starting out as an entrepreneur can be daunting, especially if it’s your first venture. Even successful entrepreneurs have their fears whenever they start a new business. The difference with Entrepreneurs and everyone else is their fear doesn’t stop them – or you – from thinking big and taking action.

Why Think Big?

If you set your goal to serve only a small group of people, you’ll probably never have serious opportunities to grow and develop. Growth and development is what makes the difference between regular small business owners and successful entrepreneurs. Try from the start to set a bigger vision for your business and the size it will be.Test your products and services with a small group of people, but aim for greatness. Your ambitions should be reflected in your web design, in your audacious

Stop Dreaming and Start Growing Online

Since the first business website saw the light of day, design has been an important part of online success. When working on web design your web developers need to understand the importance of not only graphic design but:

  • How search engines will view your website

Direct Mail That Drives Customers Online

Direct mail still works, although it’s much more likely to direct recipients online these days, rather than to a bricks-and-mortar store, or the phone. US firm ExactTarget found that even young people, whom they had expected to show no interest in direct mail, admitted to having bought something after receiving direct mail about it. There are some other interesting findings about direct mail too.(more…)
