Best Local Business Marketing Technique 27th October 2011 9:49 PM
....No longer do people use the yellow pages to find local businesses. They now use the internet and mobile devices.

The question you should be asking yourself is... Am I there?

Yes I'm there, and whilst I agree with you. Please keep the sales pitches to a minimum, or once you've hit 10 posts you can pitch in the Village Market. I admit the number of people using Yellow Pages has gone down but to bring a bit of reality in to the thread some people still use them. Why do web design / SEO companies advertise in them!
How to secure your income in retirement....

....set up a scheme that pays you even after you have left the job.

Politicians don't you just love 'em. So John Major decided to set up a system to reward former prime ministers for work including answering letters and attending public events.

Yes I'm sure they do have to do some work for it.. ..but really, is it necessary to pay them thousands of pounds? Do they really add any value? Do they really need to be at public events - they're retired!! BBC News details the amounts, Blair, Thatcher, Major have claimed.

Shrewth, it's not like they do badly on pensions either, as per this statement, Regardless of how long he or she serves, any former Prime Minister is entitled to half his

Thank you.. It certainly sounds better than the dropbox et al offers so will be interesting to see if it takes the stage by storm.

Here is an interesting concept, unlimited storage and no need to sync or copy - it's just done automatically.

It's not gone live yet but you can register, to try the beta phase.

There's a good article hear that explains it far better than I could. It also has some interesting comments with responses from the CEO too which help clarify further.

....I guess I will see if anyone of my friends knows a plumber otherwise I might do some cold calling

Still amazes me that cold calling works? I guess it does because I still get them but I have never bought anything this way?

Has anybody reading this bought something from a cold caller? Just curious.

Interesting to hear your views, so the question is does anybody have any good stories about this?

Excellent, had to read it twice to figure out what you were on about as I hadn't heard the news!

For those interested, the BBC News has the details.
