Get On Board

Get On Board

I was fortunate enough to have a flight on the new Melbourne Star a couple of weeks ago.

Yes... it is called a flight. For some it is the flight of the Phoenix

Melbourne wheel has a troubled past and there are many who are quick to have a go at it again. It is a spectacular piece of engineering and while it may have its faults, don't we all?
It will give you a unique perspective on Melbourne and is a bit of fun for the money. 
In speaking to a couple of random tourists in the area, they raved about it.

My approach is Get On Board. 

It is similar to changes in business, changes in the family situation or changes in life.

You can fight the irreversible change, you can whinge and moan about how it will fail or you can embrace it and get on board. You never know what bonus or special surprise you may find.
For the company I was working with (we did it as part of the Sales Conference kickoff) we discovered you had a pretty good view of their head office. Guess where they will be taking their international guests from now on?

So for Melbourne Wheel and other changes thrust upon you, Get On Board.

PS Here are some of the photos you can get at Melbourne Star. Look how excited we were!

Are You On Focus?

Are You On Focus?

Now days with emails, text messages, social media, guru's popping off the internet left, right and centre, it can be hard to stay focussed on what counts. 
I have just come back from 3 days attending and hosting the National Speakers Association of Australia conference. Nearly everyone I spoke to struggled with BSO's.

Bright Shiny Objects



What about you and what you are working towards? It doesn't matter if it is a personal or a professional goal, it is too easy to get distracted. So stay on FOCUS.
Stick some posters up of what you want to achieve. Have some accountability buddies to keep you on track. DO WHATEVER IT TAKES.

PS I AM ON RADIO THIS FRIDAY! If you are wanting to improve your exhibiting presence or deal with sponsors then tune into the award winning Taking Care of Business this Friday 21st Feb at 11am Melbourne time.
You can stream the show over the internet and find out more by clicking on the Taking Care of Business website.

Is Your Name Up In Lights?

Is Your Name Up In Lights?



I get asked a lot of questions about Signage and Marketing, particularly in relation to exhibiting and sponsoring events.
I am a fan of signage that is simple, easy to read and has a easy call to action. It HAS to make it EASY to be a customer.

A new form of signage I have come across recently is Hyped Media's LED Trucks. As you can see in the image above, they use digital images (stills and video's) to promote your business and it's wares.

While it would be easy to get over excited about how sexy it is, never forget that you need a reason for your signage and you need it to have a great call to action. With technology now, I would strongly look at using in conjunction with a prospects mobile phone.

That is, direct them to the special deal, registration, free download, free app, massive discount, competion or something of great perceived value to your key target market. In the process, they MUST register so you can capture their details and put them in your marketing funnel.

How can you put your name up in lights?

What Are You Talking About?

What Are You Talking About?

I am a fan of the following quote:
Great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, small minds discuss people.

It has been attributed to several different people but it speaks to me as being true.
I feel very uncomfortable sitting around with people talking about other people. Sometimes it's gossip, sometimes it's praise but it is mostly uncomfortable, particularly if I am the one starting it! (I never said I was perfect!)

What I do know is that discussing ideas can be inspiring. They don't have to be world breaking ideas, it may be simple principals of business, life, maths or property.

What about you Dear-Reader? What are you talking about?
