….there’s no reason to be rude!
I have mailing lists going back many years and decided that I would have a clear out. I was afraid to just hit the delete button in case some of the people would still be interested in what I have to say.  So I decided to upload them into my mailing program in order to clean them of dead addresses and to give the people who were not on my wavelength the opportunity to un-subscribe.

How To Plan The Perfect Website!

According to Wikipedia – The Internet actually started in 1969, (yes, only 1969!), as the ARPANET, a Defense Department system designed to let survivors share files after a nuclear attack. From being available on just a handful of top secret computers, it’s grown to millions and millions of users.

And it’s still growing. According to a recent survey, the volume of Internet traffic is expected to double annually over the next five years. Consumers are expected to account for 70 percent of all Internet traffic over that period with the rest of the market made up of business users.

What does that mean for you?

It means customers—millions of them.

No other business tool can put the products you sell in front of so many people so easily. Nothing even comes close. Read more

Don’t get out! Don’t talk to people! Stay in your comfort zone!

If these words are music to your ears then join the club. There’s nothing I would like better than to be able to potter around in the office, produce new products and then wait until the business comes in as if by magic!

So why shouldn’t it work like that?
Hey, I’ve got a great website! My products are great! I am a nice person with integrity!

Not enough guys! You can have the best products in the world but if no-one knows about them then you may as well forget it!

So how do you find this elusive yellow brick road?

Has your business suffered due to the credit crunch?

It’s not often that I blatently promote something but for once our government has made the right decision to help ailing businesses in the West Midlands in The UK. It is a fact that the West Midlands has suffered more than any other area in the UK and at last this is being addressed. So I am un-ashamedly championing this directive, namely, The Business Recovery Service.
If you are a business in the West Midlands, UK, and you are struggling, The Business Recovery Service will provide a FREE responsive, targeted service to West Midlands small to medium enterprises that can demonstrate they are ‘at risk’ due to the current economic climate.

This dedicated service will ensure that businesses have a strategic business recovery action plan that will initially stabilise the business and stem its losses to ensure its survival. The business can then be introduced back into the mainstream business support.

What does this free programme deliver? Read more

    • "Success - To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived; this is to have succeeded."
