Big Impression / Small Budget

3 Tips on getting the biggest bang for your buck this Valentine's.

Valentine's Day can be compared to "The Big Game"...it's not always the biggest and strongest player that makes the touchdown, it's the player who's got the right moves.

Here are three easy tips for keeping your Valentine's Day celebration on budget and still make a big impression:

1. Have a Game Plan & Avoid the "Audible"
Show up to the big game without a playbook and you're in big trouble, the whole team suffers. A little bit of planning and you can be yards ahead on game day.

Don't Hate Me Because I Tweet

It happened again today.

In a regular conversation with a regular person on a regular day, I happened to mention a regular something-or-other that I read on Twitter. Then it happened...again..."I HATE TWITTER!"

This used to shock me. I'm a pretty easy-going person that gets along with everyone, so honestly, the first two or three times a person burst out to my face "I hate Twitter!" I was a little taken aback. Not anymore. But to tell you the truth, it's getting a little annoying.

I blame............ Click here to read the full post.

The Return of a Classic

“A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin; what else does a man need to be happy.” ~ Albert Einstein

History shows us that fruit gifts were frequently used to show appreciation, worthiness, and generosity and were enjoyed by kings and everyday folks alike. Today, when a health-conscious lifestyle is so important for many, the delicious fruit gift basket has, once again, jumped to the forefront of popularity because it is so versatile and can be given at almost any time or any occasion. Get Well fruit baskets are a wonderful choice for those recovering from surgery or an ailment. Consider a gourmet fruit gift basket as the perfect gift on the occasion of a Sympathy or Bereavement...fresh fruit gift baskets are perfect for single or multiple recipients as the fruit can be enjoyed immediately, refrigerated for future use, or easily shared.

“Sorrow is a fruit. God does not make it grow on limbs too weak to bear it.” ~ Victor Hugo

Father's Day - June 21, 2009

Fatherhood is pretending the present you love most is soap-on-a-rope. ~Bill Cosby

Whatever the reasons may ultimately be, a lot of confusion exists around the celebration of "DAD" on Father's Day.

Whether our client is honoring their father, their step-father, uncle, brother, or even that special "father figure" in their life...if they are struggling, it typically all comes down to two questions: 1.) "When is Father's Day anyway?" and 2.) "What in the world do I get my dad for Father's Day?"

When is Father's Day?
Father's Day is celebrated woldwide on............Click here to read the full post.

Hold On To The Clients You Have

-By Raymond "Chip" Lambert

Did you know that it is more expensive to acquire new clients than to service and take care of the ones that you already have? If you know your cost to acquire new clients (the cost to acquire the lead plus the value of the time you spend to convert that lead) you can easily see that making small investments in the relationships you already have can cost you much less and yield you much more, via relationship referrals, than simply getting caught in the transaction trap of constantly acquiring and losing clients. The Top 5 things you can do to set up a "Thank You" program:.............Click here to read the full post.
