Social media helps build rapport with customers, small businesses told
Posted on November 15th, 2011
Small business owners could look at their management of social media following the advice of one expert.
Tim Gibbon, director at communications consultancy Elemental, said that, if used correctly, social networks can help businesses on “quite a few different levels”.
He says firms can develop a stronger rapport with customers in addition to creating, enhancing and supporting their promotional activity at the same time.
His comments come after small businesses were told in October by Edward Saatchi – co-founder of National Field – that email is a dying form of communication, with companies generally turning to social media platforms.
Mr Gibbon added that the benefits to social networking include the platform it creates to reach a variety of stakeholders and customers directly.
“And this is where the opportunity lies for businesses, in that they do not need to use traditional marketing and media channels to engage and interact with audiences directly,” he explained.

No human contact would hurt health of killer whales, SeaWorld vet testifies
Posted on November 13th, 2011
SANFORD The top veterinarian at SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment testified Friday that limiting the contact SeaWorld trainers have with killer whales could have long-term, negative health consequences for the animals.
Chris Dold, vice president of veterinary services for the parent company of SeaWorld marine parks, said permitting trainers to work in close contact with the whales including in the water with the giant marine mammals helps ensure that they detect signs of illnesses earlier, allowing vets to more effectively treat the animals.
“When you push that boundary further away, our sensitivity goes down not incapacitatingly so, but down,” Dold said on what is expected to the final day of a legal hearing examining safety practices at SeaWorld.

Cause-Related Marketing
Posted on November 12th, 2011
Altruism. Corporate responsibility. Philanthropy. These are often used to describe cause-related marketing, an activity in which businesses join with charities or causes to market an image, product, or service for mutual benefit.
Embracing a cause makes good business sense. Nothing builds brand loyalty among today’s increasingly hard-to-please consumers like a company’s proven commitment to a worthy cause. Other things being equal, many consumers would rather do business with a company that stands for something beyond profits.
Powerful Marketing Edge
Cause-related marketing can become a cornerstone of your marketing plan. Your cause-related marketing activities should highlight your company’s reputation within your target market.

Benefits of Modular Software
Posted on November 6th, 2011
Traditional software can often be very restrictive for the end-user. There is usually little, if any, flexibility in terms of the product you receive.
This one size fits all approach that many vendors take towards providing software is purely for their own benefit. By offering limited software fit for one specific purpose that isnt very flexible, it allows them to keep charging their customers over-the-odds annually for the same product with only minor changes.
At WinWeb, we like to give our customers more freedom of choice. We provide a fully customisable modular software suite that users can add or take away from at any time depending on their current requirements.
We feel that this is the best way to provide good value to our customers.
