Count your chickens

Some businesses of course are counter cyclical, meaning they can make money in these tougher times i.e. outplacement firms for all the obvious reasons, but they are more the exception. If you market is softer or heading or a down turn it doesn't have to be all gloom and doom. It's true now you have to earn your real money through proactive sales practices. So with on the agenda, one of my clients in regional Australia kindly sent me a great article on "The three basic sales strategies in a softening market".

I remember growing up we use to play a game called "tag". I am sure you remember playing this game with the neighborhood kids. One or more kids would count to 10 and then chase other kids to tag them and they would be what we called "it". The kids who were tagged were the next ones to count, chase, and tag kids.

DoFollow Blogs Build Links Get Traffic and Improve Your Google Rankings
Out of all the tasks related to Search Engine Optimization, link building is probably the most important one. Do-Follow blogs are one of the most incredible opportunities to get links to your website, traffic, and boost your search engine rankings. What is a Do-Follow Link? Some websites assign a nofollow tag to some links. That is a message to the search engines saying “I don’t trust this link, don’t count it”. Most blogs use this tag to protect themselves from people posting spam comments all the time. If the links don’t count, spammers don’t waste their time there. But not all blogs are “no-follow”, some are “do-follow”, which, as you can imagine, is the exact opposite.
