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 Apr | Volume 8, Issue 3: Are you a transformational leader? | ||
Management and leadership are complimentary but very different skills. Confusion reigns around the difference between the two. Yes, both management and leadership are about leading people.

Not only that, but the constant day to day drudgery which seems never ending, can cloud your vision of all the great things your business can do!

2013 Mar | Volume 8, Issue 2: Don’t Abdicate Your Financial Responsibility | ||
Say you’d handed your bank account details to a chronic gambler. How well would you sleep at night? How long before you had no money left? I guess that not many people would be silly enough to give access to their bank account to a chronic gambler, and yet many business owners hand all of their business’ financial information to a bookkeeper, accountant or an internal finance employee without ever looking at the numbers themselves until it is all too late.
