The Truth About Blogs

Not a Blog

What is a Blog?  I know it sounds like something you'd find stuck to your shoe,  but it actually refers to a type of online journal.  The word "Blog" originates from the word "Weblog" which are a type of website maintained by someone that produces regular entries of commentary, graphics, video etc.

There are millions of Bloggers around the world, writing about everything from music, food, first dates, and anything else you can imagine.  Many companies have started Blogging for their business.  Why would they do this you ask? Why do WE do this?

AIDA - Basic Principles of Selling

AIDA - Not AIDIA

AIDA.  You may or may not be familiar with this sales saavy acronym.  Not to be confused with "Aidia",  a lovely song by Canadian songbird Sarah Mclachlan.  If you've every been through sales training, or taken a Marketing class you may have heard of the AIDA model.  AIDA is an acronym, devised to outline the four stages of the sales process (defined by E.St. Elmo Lewis). There are many different variations/additions (pimped out) versions of the model, but we will discuss the original.  Keep these four simple things in mind when you're selling and you'll be a sales superstar in no time at all.
