Why Relationships Matter

As you may have noticed, the world is full of people. That means you’re in the people business, regardless of what you do. Anything we do— no matter how obscure and far removed from the public it may seem— ultimately involves people in some fashion or form. Your relationships with these people will go a long way in determining your business success.

Relationships matter in business, now more than ever.

Are You Superstitious About Your Business?

“Beware the Ides of March,” the soothsayer warned Julius Caesar. Naturally, Rome’s would-be dictator ignored this sensible advice and soon perished under the knives of those whom he had counted as friends. The stories we grow up on are filled with similar endings— it might be failing to avoid a black cat, passing under a ladder or walking into that creepy-looking house when all reason says not to. Do you take any of those stories to heart? Are you superstitious about your business?

Monetizing your ‘members’

Monetizing your ‘members’

So how do you monetize them above and beyond any product you sell (or give) them normally? Either way, how do you monetize them after all they are already a member?

Do You Have a Creative Spring Marketing Plan?

It’s been a long, cold winter.
