Articulate Your Success Through A Compelling Vision
| |
| Evolution is part of nature. Nothing stays the same, yet rather than take advantage of the potential within, the majority of people fight to keep situations/relationships the same regardless of dissatisfaction. More than likely they are subconsciously using familiar habits and strategies to transform expecting new results. It’s ludicrous to expect different results using the same patterns! These actions are more of survival rather than proactive self-leadership in generating opportunities. |

Future of Social Media
| |
| Social Media is here to stay!
So how can you best prepare for this coming evolution? Embrace the super-connected age and be willing to release control. Your customers are already defining your business for you through blogs, reviews and check-ins. Give them a story to tell about your brand. Reward them for the digital branding they are doing for you. This also means you should be aware of what your customers are doing, how and where they are communicating, in order to best support them. Hop on Twitter and search what people are saying about your city, your industry, your business. Find a way to connect with them.
Embrace and be willing to change. Because it’s coming. |

3 Great Reasons To Use RSS For Your Website Visitors
| |
| RSS is a great invention and with the evolution of technology most websites now have RSS as a means of delivering content to visitors.
RSS stands for Real Simple Syndication. However, what it really does is to convert our beautifully formatted webpages to text so that the Search Engine robots (spiders) can index and list our websites.
It is important to know that not all websites have a RSS feed (that's the terminology tech types like to use). Typically, static websites - those sites that have the content hard coded into the each page - don't have RSS enabled. Dynamic sites like WordPress do and, in general, the 'feed' is enabled automatically.
If your not sure why you should provide a RSS Feed to your website visitors, here are three great Reasons why:

Designing for Power: Rapid Development, Scale and Usability
| |
| You want to be able to control power. You want to wield it like a weapon, or perhaps a tool, against beyond-human forces (forces of nature, commerce and the meta-human). How can we extend business into space? When will our organizations evolve to provide us with the depth needed to evolve further? What is the role of customer, organization, capitalist, super-capitalist and human being? Does negative marketing help or hurt? Some people say it does both. What are the psychological factors of failure? Why do we need organizations? |

When is the Right Time to Rebrand?
| |
| Rebranding is much like the caterpillar to cocoon to butterfly evolution. After time in a cocoon your business has matured, your competitive advantage is becoming apparent, you know who your favourite clients are – the ones you want more of. Once you’ve been in business long enough and have some experience under your belt, you can seriously tackle your competitive advantage. From these experiences, processes and case studies you can draw a true differentiator. How you do what you say makes you different, often becomes what makes you different. If you figure this out, it should become the basis of all your messaging and marketing tools. |

| Common Communication Strategies
It has been my experience over the last 10 years most corporate intranets are modeled in the following fashion; new information comes into the intranet group and is then coded and released for general consumption. Before information is released to the internal network it will go through a variety of checks and balances, approvals and re-edits, before finally “landing on the desk” of the intranet team. It is then coded and released in priority order. This model relies exclusively on the intranet team to get messages and information out to employees. Does this sound familiar? |

MARKETING YESTERDAY, TODAY AND TOMORROW FOR BUSINESSES DEVELOPMENT.

Community precedes culture change
| |
| The cultural change talk inside organisations is again alive and well. I have observed this happens in tough times and leaders are searching for ways to gain competitive advantage or strategic positioning.
Most of the talk never leads anywhere. When good times return it mostly disappears from the boardrooms and corridors of most organisations.
If you are or want to be on the leading edge, change must always be top of mind, regardless of situation or circumstance. Change is both evolution and revolution and usually at the same time.
In addition to all change being personal first, followed by change in relationships, there are three critical factors we must embrace to ensure that we thrive on the challenges of change. These are community, culture, and creativity. |
