New business acronym: Invest
"Hi Mairead, Happy New Year! I think it's so important to invest in (as Elli points out) one's self. Many small businesses often appear to me to be reflections of their owners if the owner feels that it is beneficial to invest in him or herself, they will also be prepared to invest in the business."The Subtle Difference Between Authentic And Real
"Hi Ivan, really interesting post! Over the years, I've met many people offline that I was surprised to find were not at all like their online persona. In my experience this tends to happen more with people who are loudly opinionated online and then tend to much more reserved in one to one real- life situations. I think some successful/popular people online have got there as a result of being more controversial/more provocative than the next person but this behaviour is difficult to carry through to real life. In the early days of BT, I was advised that the site should aim to be more controversial and that comments that agreed/supported/congratulated were less useful that those that challenged. Some people out there equate debate with saying something to start a row and then continuing by shouting and cursing in the comments. Observing some of these provocative for the sake of it styles, I’m often reminded of how I use to sometimes behave as a child :) Thanks, Niall"Cultivating An Abundance Mentality In Business

"lol, "We didn’t know much about shaping a marketing message than my cat knows how to open a tin of tuna" One of the greatest Bloggertone lines ever! Dare I say it perhaps the message is something that we here at Bloggertone need to re-address in the new year. Bloggertone was initially a business blog, now it has become something more? Great post!"What's Your Networking Style?
"The Relationship Builder: This person understands that networking is long term and does not happen in one sitting. While very serious about doing business, they will not rule people in or out initially but rather are prepared take some time to get to know the person and their business. One of the first things they look for is the sincerity of those around, if you are looking to build a meaningful business relationship or are just out for what you can get? The relationship builder is also open minded enough to realise that the best business relationships are partnerships and they are often experts at collaboration. "Subscribe
