Staying in Touch
| |
| We are "entranced" by all of the social media noise and how it's going to be the marketing tool of today and tomorrow. Funny we just thought it was about people talking to people. We like the headlines, 20 percent this, 30 percent that. Reminds us of a note from an Aussie friend -- 20% of the auto accidents there are caused by drunk drivers. That means 80% are caused by sober folks. So he wanted them to get off the roads so drinkers could get home safely.
Rather like our business communications. Not real concerned about people following our Twits (growing up we called it stalking). Wanna tag our social site wall? Have at it! We want to communicate with you and would like you to respond...not the ROW! But that's us |

PRODUCTS COME IN MANY FORMS, THERE IS NO NORM!
| |

Big Brother Is Watching You!
| |
| This article focuses on the need to be full and frank in your disclosures of income from all sources when tax time comes. It isn't just prospective customers who are looking at your on-line activities and never, ever boast about big contracts or jobs that you've won if you really haven't. You may find the Tax Authorities looking for the income from that boast on next years tax return - and if it isn't there - watch out. |

IDEA for 2009

Why Do So Many Business People Ignore The 80-20 Rule?
| |
| I was discussing Richard Koch's book "The 80/20 Principle: The Secret of Achieving More with Less!" with a client yesterday and it became apparent that lots of business people are either not aware of this concept, or do not know how to relate it to their business.
Richard says that 80% of our results come from 20% of our activities. This can be seen to be true in just about any business I have had any involvement with as an Accountant and is something I continually tell people to look out for. |

I was discussing this earlier today with a client whose business has stagnated after he moved into a new office last year and we were looking at possible reasons why that would be.
We looked at the products he was offering, how he was conducting his marketing, what factors locally had changed, was the "credit crunch" likely to be an influence, and so on.. |

Real Mind Control: The 21-Day No-Complaint Experiment
| |
| “This $@#&ing mac will be the death of me. Intuitive, my ass.”
It just slipped out, and I don’t think I can be blamed. I was ready to leave the PC behind and take my mac overseas for the first time when I couldn’t figure out how to resize photos. On a friggin’ mac? I felt swindled. I also now had to move the bracelet. |
