Exporting: the golden gift that gets lost in translating
Elite Business
May 28, 2024
Careful and in-depth research is a crucial start. I remember years ago we had been exporting goods via middlemen for a while and a picture of possible products and companies was starting to emerge. I commissioned a report from the DTI which came back advising us to try three companies that we knew were just about as unlikely for us to ever sell in as was possible. I am sure that is not usually the case, but it proved a good reminder to take nothing at face value.

Five secret steps of successful content marketing
Elite Business
April 03, 2024
Yet too often, content marketing is a no more than a passing thought at senior level, a job that can be palmed off to a keen intern who likes the idea of a marketing position. In both minds, this is then accompanied by a vague belief that posting something on a regular basis, usually something mind-numbingly generic, will then have the whole content marketing thing covered. What a wasted opportunity.

Change: The unspoken fear every leader faces
Elite Business
March 01, 2024
It staggers me how so many leaders fail to factor into their plans the natural human resistance to change. Instead, they take to their podiums and hold forth on the “tough times” (as if none of us had noticed). They nod sagely and proclaim that substantial savings have to be made with tough decisions coming shortly. The audience looks at each other in panic and barely hears the final part of the speech when their leader has moved on to demanding people do better.

How To Have An Easy – And Free AI Strategy
Jan Cavelle
February 28, 2024
You’re not alone. So many people still loathe the idea of AI, while not realizing how much it is already in their lives. It influences how you shop, you rely on directions via your sat nav, you love Alexa or Siri. And that is just a handful.

Amazing customer journeys are rare now – but powerful
Elite Business
February 01, 2024
I’m not a great shopper, but with Christmas and family birthdays around the world, I found myself leaping onto websites and into shops and buying or attempting to buy. The reality was that there was little buying and less pleasure to be had. Instead, I was drowned in truly idiotic and so very easily avoidable customer journey errors, and those mentioned in this article are just a few.

It might be sadness, a wave of nostalgia for the good times past. There might also be feelings of frustration, worry — anger, even. Occasionally, one of guilty relief.

The 5 P’s of Perfect Pitching
Medium
January 08, 2024
But first, there is one huge mistake to avoid. And I see people doing this almost daily. Aspiring entrepreneurs have a brilliant idea. They put a shout-out on social media for someone to write their pitch deck, sometimes alongside their entire business plan.

When did you last get down and get dirty?

Running a company is immensely tough. Everyone and everything demand your attention. Meanwhile, you are being advised to delegate, to work on the business, not in the business. And that makes a lot of sense, bar one thing

Who really holds the power cards in your company?
Elite Business
September 01, 2023
Hiring an HR may seem incredibly attractive for your growing company. It is the "people stuff" that takes all the time, after all.
You may choose to go in-house or out-of-house, and I have done both in my time. What I didn’t do, to my regret, is to take on board the full impact of the decision.

What Is The Sweet Spot Between Price & Value
YouTube
February 02, 2023
Now I promise you that if there’s one question I get all the time, it’s how to put up your prices.
And I love this question, because this will be the exact moment where you discover the real meaning of value.
But as soon as you put your prices up, imposter syndrome kicks in and you wonder if anybody will buy from you – so you end up putting your prices down again, right?
