PostsIT services, how do you guys handle this for your business? 24th November 2015 12:05 PM
“Small companies that I know usually calls to freelances to solve their IT problems. Another possibility it to contract maintenance with any IT company, monthly paid.
But when the budget is very low they fix it by themselves.” I suppose the issue here is consistency and quality of support. Plus leading on from a thread I commented on a minute ago about 40% of users suffering from cyber crime, having lots of different low cost freelancers accessing your website and data has to be a security concern? Maybe that should be the primary call to action, professional and secure support versus a cheap freelancer of unknown origin and background? Makes you really think when asked to put your details into a new website. Who supports it, and is it safe? 40% of consumers experienced cyber theft 24th November 2015 11:57 AM I wonder how many from that 40% are victims of larger organisations that have data breaches, like the recent talk talk?

I'm not as precious when it comes to websites and a free website can work for some business types if it has the relevant information and looks good enough. Don't forget the offline world. Maybe a good avenue could be schools, colleges, sixth forms, adult education centres, and get your details registered, or flyers/cards put up. If people need extra assistance or support, I imagine this will be a core market. Maybe think about any government run schemes or agencies like the job centre and get yourself known as a local resource, maybe this will generate referrals. Digital wise, agree social media could work well, particularly facebooks ppc can be very effective for little boosts and can relatively inexpensive, but give you a good insight to your target audience. Let me know if you have any questions. Cadbury Christmas campaign starts against a backdrop of watchdog and job cuts 13th November 2015 4:31 PM You can't beat cadburys Chocolate, I hope they don't start messing around with the formula, or recipe. Apparently I hear they are now using sultanas instead of raisins in the fruit and nut bars because they are cheaper. Hope it's not the start of a money saving slippery slope. I've noticed choccie bars have been shrinking over the years Black Friday and Cyber Monday 2015 - what and when are they? 13th November 2015 4:16 PM
“You wouldn't catch me buying anywhere for Black Friday , I would rather pay double than have the displeasure of being in a horde of people trying to kill each other over a high cost item .. ”
It just goes to show the power of marketing spin and peoples perception of a bargain. Also seems to show the natural pack mentality we seem to have. I agree though, I would sooner buy a different day, or wait for the next special offer.
