Lesson #1: Make Your Marketing Message Memorable
| |
| Before Candler took over Coca-Cola operations, Pemberton had been doing business on a small scale. He ran a local company with a local customer base and had little chances of growing it much larger at the rate he was going. His only promotional effort was an oil cloth with the sign “Drink Coca-Cola” that hung on a local drugstore. Candler, however, knew that there were billions more thirsty people out there; he just needed to find a way to reach them. It was through a strategy of aggressive and memorable marketing, initiated by Candler but one which continues to this day, that Coca-Cola became the billion dollar company it is today. |

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. |

From the Publisher Good Health Beauty
| |
| In a recent article in The New York Times, it was reported that an alcoholic drink a day can significantly reduce the risk for heart disease in men while women get the same benefit with only one drink per week. A Danish study suggests that simple alcohol intake for women is protective but for men it is drinking frequently.
That's my tip on this month's focus, Good Health and Beauty. Now that we are in the relaxed summer season, aren't you all happy to hear that I am not encouraging you to exercise more, eat healthier food but simply to drink more alcoholic beverages? So be sure to sip a cold beer, wine cooler or an iced martini while you read about all the new health and beauty franchises being marketed. |

Water Everywhere!
| |
| With water so plentiful around us, usually people question only the quality of water. Hardly anyone asks you seriously, whether you think you drink ENOUGH water. They ask, instead, what TYPE of water you drink, if they ask at all. Typically, the people who ask what type of water you drink have some sort of a water filter to sell.
I’m not selling water filters! |

Leading the Horse to Water: strategies for managing motivation
| |
| You’ve heard the old saying, “You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink”. What causes one horse to step right up and drink deep and another decide to take a pass? Leaders often ask the same question when frustrated by failed attempts to motivate their people. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn’t. |

Soft Skills, Hard Numbers
| |
| Leaders know they need the "soft" skills but the book-keepers require "justification" for the results. However, in this "soft" economy with reduced staff, every conversation contributes to the "bottom line". |

Soft Skills Training
| |
| It is often argued that the education of hard skills is becoming more prevalent in schools and, as such, graduates are coming out more skilled than ever. Hard skills relate to abilities that are testable, such as typing or mathematical skills. Unfortunately, soft skills are often neglected and today’s grads find themselves incredibly skilled but unable to practically implement what they’ve learned. Soft skills relate to teamwork and interpersonal skills. |

Pop Culture and the Coffee Franchise
| |
| Coffee is more than a drink these days it is a cultural phenomenon that seems to have taken the world by storm. While we aren't quite sure it exactly how it began or when it got so big, one thing is for certain: coffee is a drink that is definitely here to stay. If you are interested in beginning a business of your own, you might want to cash in on this big business (in excess of 5 billion United States Dollars per year) and the popular culture it represents. |

Fork It Over: The DOs & DON’Ts of Data Collections
| |
| In the digital age many of us are inundated on a daily basis with requests for
information. From mailing lists to client surveys, everybody wants to beef up their customer data. Getting customers to fork over sensitive information is no small feat, and (as with anything) some ways are better than others. Take Starbucks for example.
This year, just like last year, I received my annual Starbucks “Happy Birthday Free Drink
Card”. As we always do my wife and I searched up and down the extensive Starbucks’ menu for the priciest drink. Eventually we settled on some sort of fruit-coffee-ice cream concoction for the whopping price of $7 (CDN). We drank about half of it. So how did Starbucks even know it was my birthday and why was I entitled to a free drink? |

A 'SOFT YET FIRM' Message to Forcefully Impact a 'BAD ATTITUDE'
| |
| So Many Times we believe in applying Brute Force (in physical or verbal terms) to correct
someone's bad manners, or worse, invasive or intrusive behavior.
'BAD ATTITUDE' is one such verbal weapon - a brutal shattering of the offender.
Especially when it is the Young who are the 'culprits.
But what if the real powerful 'change agent' in such cases is neither the
Hard Line nor the overly 'Soft' line?
I mean, a careful balancing of both the soft and the firm in a nuanced message?
Try it! Miracles may occur.... |
