Tracking Metrics for Your Marketing

If your Maserati is in the shop, it doesn’t matter how fast it can do 0 to 60. Being the coolest kid in school doesn’t help if you can’t line up a date for prom. And that million-dollar bank account might be great, but it doesn’t help if you just lost your wallet and cell phone.

What about your social media? Sure, based on all the ‘likes’ you’ve been getting you should be more popular than ice cream, but are the likes really helping you? You can’t eat likes, and good wishes don’t help you pay your staff or buy new equipment. You need to make sure that your popularity is translating into actual sales.

Are you?

The Value of “It Depends”

We all want our business transactions to be as simple as possible. Ideally, we want a simple, defined product, and more importantly we want to know how much it costs. In fact, cost is frequently the most important consideration, so when we’re looking to do business we want to quickly find out how much of a hit our wallets are going to take.

The Brilliance of One Application Talking to Another

“What we’ve got here is failure to communicate.”
— From the film ‘Cool Hand Luke’

What if you called a meeting, but no one came? Would it still be called a meeting? As ridiculous as the question may sound, these types of communication breakdowns can and do occur even in a modern business. Talking to each other seems like such a natural thing to us that we’re often surprised at how everyone from married couples to corporate partners to 21st-century armies can have such trouble with it.

Is it Time to Reinvent Yourself?

Reinventing yourself is hard. Sure, some famous entertainers like David Bowie managed to do it every few years, and, of course, politicians try to do it all the time, but it can be a tough challenge. Just ask any child actor who couldn’t convince the public to think of them as anything but a cute kid, or ask a teenage sensation who couldn’t make the transition to adult acting.

Just because it’s a challenge, doesn’t mean it can’t be done though.

Gearing Up for the Holidays

The holidays are a four month extravaganza of music, fun, festivities and great marketing opportunities. In fact, for many businesses, the holidays are where it’s at. So if you’re one of those people sitting there contemplating how to turn the holiday season to your advantage, here are some things to keep in mind.

The Value of Saying No

“The difference between successful people and very successful people is that very successful people say ‘no' to almost everything.”   ~ Warren Buffett

Saying no is hard. No one wants to wants to see that disappointed look on someone’s face or feel that sudden awkwardness that often overtakes the room when someone gets turned down. Who really wants to hurt someone else’s feelings like that? Not us. We’re can-do team players, right? What if we might need that person for something later? And there’s always that voice in the back of our head that tells us we’re missing out on a potential steal of a lifetime.
