Company Loyalty
If you're in business, do you think your employees are loyal to you and to your company? You probably think they're pretty faithful. But are you really and truly sure?
Hungry

Personal Branding -- What do you bring to the table?"
People don't often think about themselves as a "brand", though they should. It could mean the difference between being successful or not, whether in business or personal matters. People want to know, "What do you bring to the table?"

Branding Goal – Internet Marketing Strategy

Healthy Salespeople - Healthy Sales Results
As I have stated previously, sales is a demanding profession. Top performers know that to sustain a high level of performance, they need to keep fit and well - both physically and psychologically. They are self disciplined, self managed and take good care of themselves. You only have to look at them and know they are healthy. Their skin is clear, they have a vitality about them that is fresh, their attitude is positive and they are keen to learn. What sort of sales culture do you encourage? Is it one of health and wellbeing or a boozy, extreme living on the edge culture?
Credit Card Debt Settlement - It may be worth sacrificing your credit score
We are taught through bank advertising and social pressure that a poor credit score suggests not only the loss of untold dollars due to higher interest rates on loans, but amazingly, that a high credit score makes you a “good” person and a low credit score makes you a “bad” person. Your credit score is a product, just like everything else advertised to you. It is not connected to your identity. And it won't cost you nearly as much money as you're made to think it will.
What Makes Your Business So Special?
The one question every business, branding, and marketing consultant asks is "what makes you special; what makes you different?" If you want to grow your business and get to the next level, defining what makes you special is a good place to start. Most businesses are copycat companies, selling the same thing, in the same way as most of their competitors, making for a real challenge in providing an adequate answer to the "what makes you so special?" question. But fear not, it is easier than you think.

What’s Your Compelling Purpose?
All of us are in search of a clear and driving purpose for our lives; we want to contribute to something bigger than ourselves. The world of work offers a great opportunity for people to connect with a purpose. The reality is that people care less about working for a company and much more about working for a compelling cause. Without a purpose, our teams are just putting in time. Their minds might be engaged, but their hearts will not be. A team without a purpose is a team without passion. They might achieve short-term results, but they won’t have the heart to go the distance.

Its Wednesday February 21st at 1045am Time to Conquer Your Fear
Seven years ago, my ship started to turn. At the time, Delia Associates looked very much like a traditional business advertising and PR firm. Don’t get me wrong. We were doing some great work for a lot of great clients. But that’s when the branding bug caught me. I saw branding as more than a fad. I realized it was the foundation of category domination. If a company could discover its true distinction, it could virtually erase all competition, and drive toward greatness.

The Three Cs of Branding
The benefits of having a strong brand are tremendous. Strong brands charge premium pricing; they thrive during economic downturns; they attract great employees, partners and customers; and they can extend into new business areas with ease. And branding is not just for the Coke’s and Nike’s of this world. Every company of any size can benefit from the power of branding.
IF THE PAINTER CAN DO IT, YOU CAN TOO
When marketing “experts” refer to the concept of branding, they typically point to global and widely recognized brands: Coke, McDonalds, FedEx, Microsoft, GE, and the like. While the “big guys” are a convenient source of reference, it makes the whole idea of branding somewhat inaccessible for the rest of us. And this is just not the case. Even the smallest company can brand itself.

Where Branding Goes Wrong, And What to Do About It.
People in my industry are always quick to point out the branding success stories. We readily site examples like Starbucks, McDonalds, Nike, Dell, MasterCard, Coke, and other world-renowned brands. Each gained true distinction and took a leadership position because they were determined to do so. They invested heavily in reinforcing their position with aggressive brand-building, and rarely waivered from their brand identity. But what about all the brands that failed, despite determination and dollars?

The Man Behind Coca-Cola: The Early Years of Asa Candler
It has become such an integral part of American culture that when the Coca-Cola Company tried to change the original formula for its flagship drink in the mid-1980s, the public backlash was overwhelming; the Old Cola Drinkers of America was even established and tried to sue the company. Today, Coke is sold in the stores, restaurants, and vending machines of over 200 countries. The company is one of the largest in America, and also the largest manufacturer, distributor and marketer of nonalcoholic drink concentrates in the world, with over $24 billion in revenue and 71,000 employees. The man behind all of that growth is Asa Candler.

Keeping it R.E.A.L. when it comes to branding.
What is a brand anyway? In the simplest terms, a brand is the presence of a unique entity. And that entity need not be the size of Coke, Sony, or Toyota.
Product Bundling to Increase Sales
Product bundling is combining two or more complimentary products or services together that creates differentiation and offers greater value to the customer. The key to packaging your products and services is to ensure that the package price is less than buying all the individual items separately. A bundle of products is sometimes referred to as a package deal and a well known example of this is the fast food industry 'meal deal' where you can buy burger, fries and coke for a cheaper price than purchasing all items individually.

We’re Starting to Take Virtual Sales to the Real Bank
We may have worked with Atari for over six years back in the real gaming system days but we never really had a long attention span -- long enough to play the games. We knew people who slept under their desks and lived on Coke/Twinkies when it was crash n burn to get games out. Folks still do but now they're talking serious money. So serious we people buy virtual goods/stuff with real money. Times have changed but the attraction of games hasn't. The games are more realistic, more immersive and more valuable. Serious men, women, boys, girls play them...serious men, women develop them...seriously there's a new breed of casual games !!!!
