Good
morning <Name>
Today I've been invited to give a presentation at Selfridges,
London to NRG Networks. In preparation, I revised our search string
stats.
88% of all our news article titles published between Christmas
and 2nd February are on page 1 of Google, 75% in the top spot!
And if
that's not impressive enough, 60% of articles published last week are showing
on page 1.
I guess we must be doing something right.
What are
you doing about your online PR? Need a sprinkling of
online marketing magic?
Who's game on to join in the
Pancake Challenge?
Windsor and Eton Pancake Challenge 2007. Send me an email
saying count me in.
Enjoy today's news!

Property
Specialists Work Together to Provide Complete Service
Newbury-based Ansells Commercial
& Industrial Property Agents have formed an association with local
surveyors Mursell & Co, a move that should enable the combined team to
provide a truly complete range of commercial property services to their
clients.
Paul Enters, the senior partner with Ansells, has been
advising clients for over 35 years - 26 of those years based in the Newbury
area. His firm typically focuses on property disposals, acquisitions,
valuations and rent reviews. Brian Mursell’s practice covers the 3
disciplines of building surveying, quantity surveying, and architecture. By
pooling their respective experience in these key areas and working more closely
together, the 2 firms aim to offer their clients an across-the-board portfolio
of commercial property-related services.

The Ultramobile PC – Will it
Catch On?
A US company recently launched a practical
alternative to the usual desktop or laptop computer. The OQO 02 is just 14cm
wide, 8cm high, and 3cm thick. Yet despite its diminutive size, it’s a
fully Windows Vista-capable computer, with a 1.5-gigahertz processor, an
800-by-480-pixel touch screen, a slide-out keyboard, and three kinds of
wireless connectivity.
The new breed of ‘Ultramobile’ PC was
pioneered by San-Francisco based OQO; their 01 model was the ‘world’s
smallest Windows PC’ for 2 years. Surprisingly the target market –
mobile professionals – have been slow to embrace the technology, although
the 02 version features numerous upgrades includes better screen visibility and
longer battery life.

Case Study: Implementing business
plans
“The directors were very clear on the business strategy but
we realised that our employees were not. We needed to fix that quickly”.
SA, Marketing Director
The business
A very large corporation
in the IT market. They operate on high volumes and thin margins in a
marketplace that’s fast moving and competitive.
Revenues and
profits were continuing to grow but this was dependant upon the company being
agile enough to respond quickly and well to business changes.

Saving or investing?
I
don’t know if any of you have read the below article (called ‘two
questions before you start’), but it raises a good question to ask: are
you saving or investing? To avoid plagiarism, I’ll let you read about the
differences, but it’s a key factor to consider.
Choosing the
right account
Savings accounts usually fall into two categories,
short-term or long term. Short-term (easy access) refers to an account where
you can have instant access to your money without incurring any penalties. The
amount and frequency of what you put in can also be varied. These accounts are
usually good to use for money for the tax man.
