Present Like a Rock Star
You live and breath your subject matter. You own your expertise. You wouldn't be presenting or speaking if you didn't have this command of your topic. So I always wonder why people need notes to talk about what they know so well. After all, you don't need notes to have a chat with your children or grand children, you've lived the experiences all your lives.

Graceful Networking
Networking meetings can be sheer torture! The room is chock full of pitfalls that can trip you up if you don't know how to extricate yourself from sticky situations.

Do you use a spiral notebook?
I suspect the ‘hunting and pecking’ for something to write on is a common scene in so many workplaces. Jotting notes on loose pads of paper, using sticky notes for phone numbers and scrawling a customer reference on the back of an envelope or business card are all symptoms of poor personal organisation.

Take Note
I would like to focus on something, that at first glance, may appear rather trivial. In fact it might seem so inane that you are wondering why I am even writing about it. It’s ‘note taking’. I learnt a very salient, if not embarrassing, lesson in my early 20’s. When in my first sales consulting role I turned up to a sales meeting with a prospective client with no obvious note taking materials. Up until that time I had never been told to take notes by my managers. I hadn’t thought about talking notes myself. I relied on my memory.

Logo Design & Your Favicon: Spotlight Your Brand Online
By now, you’re probably familiar with the term “sticky website.” The phrase refers to a site that compels visitors to “stick around.” In order to entice visitors to stick around, however, your site must first project the image that you are a credible (i.e., large) company. If potential customers don’t have this comfort factor, they are likely to bounce before they even see what you offer. There are many aspects to developing a credible, “sticky” website, but one easy and valuable way is to create a “favicon.”

SYSTEM – Save YourSelf Time Energy & Money
How many yellow sticky notes can you juggle before they mysteriously start crawling away? In desperation, you start doing things the same way each time and voila you’ve developed a system! Let’s take it to the next level; actively search for routines you can systematize.

Will you Stand up for the Truth?
I've been struggling this last week with a sticky situation. Actually as I write that, I realize it doesn't have to be a sticky situation. It's only sticky because of fear. My own fear, which has been fueled to a flame by the fear of others.

The Power of Personal Notes
There are many things you can do to develop a great reputation, establish rapport with clients, colleagues and prospects, and get top-of-mind awareness in your target market--certainly too many things to list here. But few things are as effective (and inexpensive) in accomplishing all of those objectives as personal notes. As a devotee of personal notes, I've even been known to go so far as to call personal notes one of the three "magic bullets" of marketing.

Are you a “Paper Person?” Consider an Electronic To Do List
For those of you who still use paper for a to do list, like pads of paper, a planner, post-it notes, or maybe you use your memory entirely, consider making a change to an electronic to do list. It doesn't have to be in Outlook. It can be in Palm or Entourage or Lotus Notes. Outlook, in my opinion, happens to be the best and most powerful, but a good task management system is workable in other software systems too. Here are the 3 best reasons to start using an electronic to do list:
