| Welcome to
Business in Berkshire |
|
| Good Morning
|
|
What's in today's news... Are you tuned in
to the planet and what's going on around you? Do you think you have a vibe but
haven't explored it? See what Dr Lisa Turner has to offer.
There's more
on our Sunflower Slimathon campaign, helping those that want to join in to
loose a few pounds and raise money for Thames Hospicecare at the same time. If
you want to join in, contact Sue, if you'd rather keep the weight on, then give
us a tenner!
The Air Ambulance could also do with a spot of help if
you've got a big truck and enjoy pulling stuff around, perfect job for
you!
And check out how lazy we're getting, shopping online for this,
that and the other. You'd better get on our sunflower slimathon if your going
to sit at your PC all day long. At least those emails work... as long as
they're a quality template. If you're beginning to understand this and
appreciate that what you're creating is probably not doing your business
justice, then give us a call, we can help add some spit and polish!
If
you can't beat 'em... we've come up with our very own "Offer of the
Day"... do you want to be one of the first to join in? Let's see...
enjoy! |

Video
Advertising
Audiovisual marketers are likely to expand their
video advertising endeavours this year, with 2007 poised to see a surge in
online activity.
The big question mark remains over whether or not the
medium will ever be as effective as television advertising, although with more
people than ever watching online video, it is a definite possibility.

Content and Contacts the Social
Networking Phenomenon
Social Networking is the latest ‘big
thing’ sweeping the internet. It’s based on the idea of members
creating an online profile promoting their interests with the aim of linking up
with like-minded individuals. Some sites focus primarily on making business
connections (Ecademy and LinkedIn for example) whilst others are more
‘hobbies and interests’ based (like MySpace and Friendster). Building
an online network of friends and associates has never been easier.

Email Marketing Campaigns Bear
Fruit
Many retailers bolstered their email marketing campaigns
over Christmas and were rewarded with promising results, a study has
revealed.
Research from email marketing firm CheetahMail shows that
December witnessed a 5.9 per cent growth in web transactions, with the average
order standing at £40. Click-through transactions peaked at 24.3 per cent
on New Years Eve, but even Christmas Day and Boxing Day witnessed a startling
amount of online activity, with the research revealing average click-through
transactions of 2.4 per cent on the two festive days.

The Networking
Wall
Perhaps the most common misconception about networking is
that it is an opportunity to sell your product or service. Take a moment to put
yourself in the shoes of the person you are talking to at a networking event
and ask yourself whether they are actually in the market for what it is you
have to offer.
