2013 Jun | Volume 8, Issue 5: Staying Positive in a Negative World |  | |
Friends this month I want to focus on two powerful parables which reinforce that the most important strategy that will allow your business to prosper is your business attitude. Be careful to protect your mind during these challenging times. Remember what you focus on is what you will receive! Category : Learning Library - 60 Seconds with Achievers Group - Tony Gattari | |||
2013 Jun | Volume 8, Issue 5: Beat Google with your new USP (Unique Social Purpose) | | |
With the constant changes in search, the time and risk involved in achieving search engine rankings is hard to justify. If you are chasing Google with a cutting edge SEO strategy, you are aiming at a fast moving target. However, there is a better way. Forget about chasing after Google and build an online community and social asset around your business. We call this, your new USP – Unique Social Purpose. If you do this successfully, you will build your business via online word of mouth. At which point Google will rank your website anyway, as a popular and useful resource.

2013 Jun | Volume 8, Issue 5: Live Lessons from Australian Leaders | | |
COO of Metcash, Silvestro Morabito, talks about writing a road map for your business, shaping culture and protecting the independent retailer in Australia. The majority of books on Leadership are US based and cite mostly US examples or people from history. In an effort to learn from the best and for the benefits of SME leaders in Australia and New Zealand, I have approached a wide variety of Australian CEO’s and other top business leaders and asked them to share their stories, their wisdom and insight.

2013 May | Volume 8, Issue 4: Ten Top Tips to be a Leader of Your Business | | |
In my experience of working with over 110 businesses around the world over many years, I have been amazed at how often we are called in because the business owner has problems with staff or customers or suppliers or the market. Invariably our first meeting with an owner is dominated by the owner telling us all the problems he is facing and how everyone is against him. This ‘victim mentality’ typically expresses itself through blame, denial and excuses. After hearing what the owner has to say, we will usually confront him with a simple, bold statement: “Your problems have little to do with anyone else; they are ultimately a reflection of your own behaviour.” Category : Learning Library - 60 Seconds with Achievers Group - Tony Gattari | |||
2013 May | Volume 8, Issue 4: Social Media: Using Pinterest for Business | | |
Since its launch in 2010, Pinterest has dramatically grown in its popularity with currently more than 48 million users worldwide. Its membership has also been steadily increasing in Australia with an estimated 450,000 members as of March 2012 (Nielsen, March 2012). Pinterest is an online pinup board, where users can organise their inspirations, interests and ideas on virtual pinboards, typically around niches like fashion, food, sports, travel, events and many more. Each image or pin is linked back to a particular website, making Pinterest a visual version of social bookmarking sites such as Stumbleupon or Digg.

2013 May | Volume 8, Issue 4: Activity Vs Results | | |
Have you ever had staff that are in early, busy all day and leave late? The impression is they are busting their buns for your business, but in reality you sit back and think “What do they do all day - what have they actually accomplished?” Yes, plenty of activity, but where is the result? On the flip side, this team member probably thinks they are doing an amazing job for you and would be shocked you think otherwise!
