My point exactly! My husband just made a purchase because of a negative comment on a business page. He was so impressed with how the business handled it, he decided to use them.

That is so true! I recently left a comment on the FB page of a local business that just opened addressing some concern's about the service I got that day. My post wasn't hateful & I was honestly trying to help them correct a deficiency before it hurt their reputation.

Not only did they not reply, but they deleted my post so other customer's wouldn't see it. SHAME

Hi Jeri,
I found your name through SCORE, but have been unsuccessful in getting a hold of you through their email system. Can I get an email address to send a private message in regards to starting a new business?

Great post Jeri.

If businesses want to be competitive they have to have an online presence. In fact, according to Yahoo, 89% of consumers making in-store purchases in have conducted online research prior to making a purchase. 89%! That’s huge!

So, if you don’t have an online presence you might not even be in the game.

It’s nice to see that many Claremore

I've used the SMART system for personal goals. When I do training for manufacturers, I change the R (realistic) to RELEVANT. A goal or objective needs to be Relevant to the mission of the organization.

The SMART approach is an effective way to develop career development planning for company employees.

I agree - I can either Plan for success or I can react to slow downs.
