Hi fellow writers-and-readers,

I don't know about you but I'm gearing up to get going after the summer. Up here in Scotland, we've not had much of that so being positive about the approach of autumn is a challenge especially with crunching noises about credit echoing around!

The Waiting Room: Part 2 – ‘Hurry Up’!

Alison Clark — Wed, 03 Sep 2008 10:40:39 +0100

It’s a cliché to say that we live in a speeded-up world. IT systems and internet connections are marketed for their speed. We tap our fingers impatiently on the desk if the PC is running slowly or we’re forced to use an older model. Used to a state of the art service station, we fidget at the traffic lights or fret if we have to fill up at an older slower pump. And the difference will likely be only a few minutes.

Building your brand using online forums

Building your brand using online forums -

How many online forums do you subscribe to? And within your list, how many are you a regular contributor to? Forums can be extremely useful as a way of building your personal brand in that particular sector. Whilst it can be time consuming to read and respond to postings, it is an easy way to start to infiltrate almost subconsciously into the minds of the users.

Walking the talk - how to be a great role model -

I expect that many of you have had this frustration at some time in the recent past. People who say they will do something and then do not deliver. This can be a blight in small businesses are well as large organisations and can lead to staff, colleagues, suppliers and customers being disillusioned when a leader's subsequent actions contradict their initial words.

Forget press coverage, Internet PR rules!!

paula g — Wed, 05 Mar 2008 13:53:44 +0000

Inevitably new clients come to me stating that they want to get into the Sunday Times, Cosmo, The FT or some other popular publication. However, sometimes what would be more effective, especially if they have limited time, is to build a PR campaign around the web. Unlike traditional PR where people either have to remember your name and Google for your website, or snip out the piece about you, online PR means that all they have to do is click through to you. It might not be as glamorous, but it can be much more effective.

So how can you tell which ones to pursue?

If you have read Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki, you will know about the 'Does it Eat Me, or does it Feed Me' question and it's a really useful first yardstick of how good a deal may be.
