In a previous life as a systems engineer protecting system data, having the resources to recover from a fatal melt down and frankly protecting clients from the headaches that come with lost data was a daily focus. As many of you reading this, my daily activities rely heavily on the performance of Wordpress and its incredible reliability. To that point a significant chunk of my revenue is dependent upon Wordpress performing as many of us take for granted.
Let me ask you as question: When was the last time that you backed-up your database? How about your site files?
Do you keep your Wordpress up to date with the latest updates? How about any plugins that you make use of, do you keep them updated?
Let me tell you a quick little story.

All too often I meet with very sharp small business owners that do all the things you would expect when it comes to building a successful small business. These business owners are developing strategic relationships, monitoring their sales and marketing goals, keeping tabs on expenses and ensuring that forecasted cash flow is going to meet expected demands. While this list could go on, I am sure you get the point.
Why is it that these same business owners seem to disconnect their brain when it comes to their website design, performance and overall role in the business?
Why is it that many of these business owners fail to understand that their website presence is a very real and viable source of new prospects, sales and business opportunities?

I wanted to take a moment to tell everyone Merry Christmas and to express my gratitude for all the blessing I (and my family) have received this year. While, like many I have had some challenges during 2009 I can say in all honesty that I have far more to be grateful for than I deserve.
To my wife, my Sons, Mom & Dad, my wonderful sisters, my father-in-law, and brother/sister in law, you all mean more to me than I will ever be able to fully express. I Love You All & pray that God will bless you all beyond your wildest dreams in 2010 and beyond.
For all my friends, family, and site visitors I am grateful for each of you. More than any of you will ever know I am blessed to have you as a part of my life. Many times the smallest comment, word of encouragement or thanks means the world to me and reminds me why I do what I do.
For all of my new friends (family) that I have as a result of Zarvos Coaching, the Breaking Through Series and the incredible Vision in Action (VIA) leadership course, I am eternally grateful to each and everyone of you. Many of you have been a tremendous source of inspiration when I most needed that extra encouragement. I love you all and count myself blessed to have you as part of my life.
There are countless others in my life that I would like to take the time to thank, but that would require more space than I could possibly cover here in the space. I have no doubts that God has brought you all into my life and as such I am grateful for each and everyone of you. Merry Christmas to all and God Bless. I pray that 2010 will be a year of countless blessing of health, wealth and prosperity.
With Love and Respect,
Glenn

For years I knew that networking, more specifically business networking was a much better way to do business, but at best I was inconsistent in leveraging my network of contacts. Sure if you have been in business for any length of time you know that networking is all about leveraging your business and personal connections to bring you a regular supply of new business.
Do you really know and understand just how important word-of-mouth marketing can be for your business? Did you know that word-of-mouth marketing has been known to turn a business around from failure to success overnight?
Simple concept – right? Well like I started out saying: If you have been in business for any length of time you also know that networking to create referrals and ultimately more business is Continue reading ‘Why Word-of-Mouth Marketing and the Prospection Network?’ »
