Wether you are selling solid goods, or services, every now and then you hit a ‘dry patch’, a period of time where ‘things go quiet’, when the sales just aren’t coming through as fast as they could be, should be, or used to do. One great time-tested method to kick-start your sales is to have [...]

Be like Spain to dominate your industry

The previous World Cup flavour post wouldn’t be complete without this addition. I wrote a couple weeks ago about how being like Germany when it comes to business can keep you on the safe path to success. The analogy of course was football related. The German squad have always been known for playing very systematically, [...]

When it comes to World Cup records Germany has an impressive CV, having reached 11 final stages out of 15. This year they reminded us yet again of their brilliant winning strategy. Whilst the South American teams play all-out football, woven with flair and talent; whilst the Italians are busy rolling around dramatically on the [...]

Be careful how you market yourself or you could set yourself up for failure

Jose Gonzalez — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 07:22:38 +0000

Words are powerful things… what you say matters – often times more than you think. When it comes to marketing words matter a great deal, because what you say is essentially what you’re promising. Say the wrong thing and you could be promising something that you just can’t deliver. Just the other day whilst taking [...]

Nero’s piddly little tea-party doll-house coffee cups, How Pret a Manger kept their coffee a secret from me, and why you should NEVER do this in your business

Jose Gonzalez — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 06:56:27 +0000

It was a grey dull Saturday afternoon in Glasgow that found me wading through the Icelandic volcanic ash. OK, I exaggerate a little: there was a sliver of sun to be seen every now and again. It’s true. Myself and The Other Half were faced with a decision: Starbucks, Costa or Nero. The 3 giants. [...]

Jose Gonzalez — Sun, 11 Apr 2010 08:32:08 +0000

FaceBook can KILL your business, why you need to keep your life out of your business more so than ever, and how acting stoopid can cost you money for ever

Jose Gonzalez — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 07:26:25 +0000

I’ve always been of the opinion that you should keep your personal opinions out of your business, for the simple reason that we only buy from people we like. An interaction can very quickly start to plummet when your prospect discovers that you’re a die-hard fan of the football team he or she most hates. [...]
