Are You Heading In The Right Direction With Your Marketing?
"Susan, More great advice though you petrify me when you call me the "Head Marketer" for my brand!!! Those are big shoes to fill! Thankfully I have found you and your wisdom and am gaining some insight into the mindeset and tactics needed to be effective. With much appreciation, Yoni"Get the Most Out of Your Social Media Marketing: 10 Tips for Beginners
"Adam, Great and very comprehensive list of tips. I particularly like re-evaluation, ROI and being yourself. I am trying to expand my Social Media forays at this point beyond just Twitter and I will value this list as a guide to doing so. Thanks! Yoni"Business, War and Language
"3keyscoach: A GREAT thought-provoking look at semantics and language. I liken the debate to the words used in American sports: Baseball: 1927 Yankees: "Murderer's Row." Football: "Blitz": Lightning war of the Nazis "Sack": To pillage and plunder "Bomb": A long pass "The Assasssin" Jack Tatum who paralyzed another player for life "Shotgun" a particular play set General Sports: "Sudden Death" I think in any arena where competition is fierce, including business, we will use terms which have violent connotations. I don't think it is meant as violence per-se, it just seems to be how we express ourselves. Yoni "Did Monetising Your Website Turn it Into Low Quality Junk?
"Alastair, Your are 100% correct. I'm reading more and more blog posts lately that have ads in between every paragraph. It's annoying and seems to turn an article into a blatant advertisement. I believe that a blog can be sucessful with great content and a subtle sales-pitch, but when I see that it is mostly an advert, I usually don't stick around long enough to read. Great post! Yoni"Did Monetising Your Website Turn it Into Low Quality Junk?
"Alastair, I just clicked on a post. The actual article started about 10 inches down the page. The first 10 inches were...yup, ads. It turns out the article was a pretty good one but I was so put out by the ads that it left me with a hugely negative impression. It looked and felt very SPAM-ish. Yoni"The GREATEST Business Technology Breakthrough Ever: And Why We'll Laugh At It In a Few Years!
"Alastair, Thanks for your words and thoughts! Were I a techie, I probably wouldn't have written this article, perhaps my hatred of all things new was the catalyst. It just seems there are so many, too many, old-fashioned ways of pleasing the client without having to indulge in the latest tech-trends. Yoni"Subscribe
Who needs books? And other "archaic" things!
"Barney, I will never, NEVER, EVER read a book on Kindle, nor will I ever own a Kindle. I'm part of that old-fashioned breed who despises tech. I didn't mind dialing, yes, actually 'dialing" a phone, nor did I mind standing up to turn the dial to change the TV channel. Businesses must change with the times, but they also have to take into account people who loved "the good old days" and Market to them in an old-fashioned way. Great article on the dichotomy of modernity vs. "good-old." Yoni"
