Something Different

Today has provided me with a watershed moment in my year. Following a conversation with Kim Nelms it is about time I started to amrket the business tools I write for other projects, I own the IPR and copywrites so over the next few weeks I am going to look at designing 30 bite sized sessions for those who want to build their business.

My style is based on reach out and touch one person each day with you product, do it well and the market will grow at pace and quality because your customers believe you are the difference between success and failure.

No gimmick just the physcology of self actualisation

If you think it sounds interesting drop me a note.

Time rushes by in a recession

Life has taken me away from the home office in the past few weeks as I beging the detailed process of creating aspects of a new Business School for a college in the UK.

The aim is to offer support and access to education to micro-businesses (home based and mobile) This has prompted so many new questions and themes, one of the common aspects is coping with the loneliness, isolation, the need for self disciplne and focus.

So I am looking for the thoughts of those who are experienced in dealing w… Continue

Home business futures

It may sound a strange concept but we have to look at the success of home working and realise that as technology and flexible working arrangments grow more companies will be looking at cutting overheads by locating their staff remotely.

We have been told that outsourcing is dying due to the SME's looking inward and reducing outgoings with the idea of keeping everything in house.

Well here is something that may tip the scale for the future of Homeworking.

I went to Comfort In Derbyshire (might… Continue

Why recession helps to create new businesses

There are three good reasons why a recession is an excellent time for the economy as a whole and they all have to do with the people who need success.

The first simple reason is that out of hardship and no hope comes the opportunist with a real need to sustain the essentials. In the 1980's European recession we saw the move from manufacturing to service industries because people had the desire to get off the benefit handout system and get into meaningful employment.

The second reason is that i… Continue

Home working too much insulation from the 'real world'?

'you don't understand what it islike to be in the real world'...'real business is hard' comments I recently heard from colleagues attending a networking meeting. Bemoaning the unfair competition as they now have to compete with more lone and isolated workers as more specialists are made redundant or are taking the opportunity to strike out on their own.

Strangely I do sympathize with their views, the attraction for me is the lower overheads, the flexibility and creation of real space in my life… Continue

Multi-level media for communication and networking

The need to be available is now creating so many tools for home businesses and in some cases many appear to the outside worl much larger than they are because they have begun to develop a large scale media presence.

Recently a colleague explained how he spent at least twenty minutes a month on prime time news when it came to consumer profiling and spending habits, he is viewed as an authority.

It wasn't his google placement but his YouTube and video content.

Some of the contact times were odd… Continue
