Does Your Website Measure Up?
"Nice post Jennie! Analytics is such a critical tool and so many of us are using it badly. One place where I believe that it can be extremely insightful in in tracking user experience. Most sites are designed with specific call to action in mind, and analytics can be used to establish whether on not customers are doing what you would like them to do. If not! then redevelop and redesign, launch and analyse. The process should be continued until your website is performing to its optimal."Job Control And Employee Well Being
"Great post, Ciarán and welcome to Bloggertone! I saw a very interesting study of a company in the US recently, where on a given day each month, all employees were given the opportunity to work with anyone else in the business and on a task of their choosing. They calculated that productivity increased substantially and many new business initiatives were launched as a result of this one day. In effect, they took management out of the equation and productivity went up? - Niall"Using Your Website To Target Your Ideal Customer
"Great post Beatrice and fantastic pointers! I think people need to start looking at their website as a place to start and have conversations with customers. It's also a great opportunity to provide insights into the people and culture that exits within a business or organisation. A website should give people a strong feel for the business - Niall"Buyer and Seller Insights: Together Accelerating Growth
"Great post John and nice to see you back blogging on here. "Do yourself and your customer a favour and walk away if your value isn’t valued" I think this is the single best piece of advice that can be given to sellers in this market. Time is your greatest resource, we as sellers need to learn to use it strategically rather than chasing wild geese. Every interaction with a customer needs to offer serious value, wasting their time and yours has become offensive!"My Chat With Seth
"Lewis, This is not only one of the best blog posts I've ever read, it simply one of the best pieces I've ever read. You've encapsulated in this post what many of us struggle to communicate, it's a wonderful talent! "They have mastered the creative process and they can think on their feet. That’s why they command substantial fees" So true, and often very difficult for the traditionals, the establishment and organisations to come to terms with. "But it does mean that they are willing to go there – to take the risk of not knowing, and have the courage to work with the situation, in the moment." I would also add understanding that it is also the right thing to do, we should always flirt with failure, LIVE by it's edge! for it's only there that great things can happen. Great post Lewis and one that people should read and then re-read until it's message is clear. Thank you so much for sharing, Niall"Real Innovation Through Social Media

Why Every Small Business Owner Is A Salesman And Why So Many Fail At It
"Nice post Adam, while I agree that SBOs they need be salespeople, It is not s natural strength for many and they may need to hire a sales manager quickly. This is fraught with risk and someone who is not great at selling themselves is rarely best placed to hire the right person, yet many persist, usually resulting in an expensive mistake. "
