Digital and Visual marketing is no longer the future, it's the present. There is a certain element of showcasing your business which you can't do with flyers, and for many reasons, a video is more illustrious than a still picture. Take for instance, Klein Water College in eMalahleni, as beautiful, properly located and well structures as they are, it took a video to showcase certain aspect such as location, open fields and low ratio classes, something a flyer couldn't do.

I know of parents who signed up for a school because of a beautiful flyer, only to find that it's a backroom apartment with congested classes after they have all paid up.

Even video calling, it exposes a lot, that's why they say you need to warn someone before video calling them.

Make your business transparent and appealing. Get a promo or product showcase video.

Your business's name serves two purposes: 1. For branding, 2. As a Free marketing tool. That is why when you choose a name it must create brand awareness and be a free marketing tool. Here are 4 ways to make sure you do it right.

• YOUR BUSINESS’S NAME MUST BE TO THE POINT – 1 TO 5 SHORT WORDS MAX! Remember customers must be able to say it in one breath…that way it is easier to remember and to tell their friends and family about. Good examples are Amazon, Standard Bank, MoFaya Energy Drink, and etc.

• YOUR BUSINESS’S NAME MUST BE SPECIFIC. Tell us in 1 to 5 words what your business is about with words that are true to your brand personality. MoFaya Energy Drink tells us in 3 words that it is an energy drink that is directed to the South African market [we get that from the slang MoFaya meaning more energy/things are going well/ it is lit as the kids say these days generally used in South Africa]. Amazon tells us it is a market place with as many varied products on sale from different individuals as the many varied individual species of animals, insects, birds, and plants found in the Amazon jungle.

• YOUR BUSINESS’S NAME IS NOT ABOUT HOW AWESOME YOU ARE OR HOW FAR YOU HAVE COME. Remember you are not advertising your accomplishments but your product or service. So names like BLACK HUSTLERS SECURITY COMPANY or TO GOD BE THE GLORY HAIR SALON AND BARBERSHOP must be a thing of the past. If you do that you have just wasted a great FREE MARKETING TECHNIQUE of allowing your business name to tell what you offer and express your brand personality. Remember the name is not for you…it is you communicating to your potential customers. So, what is it that you want them to know about your offering and how it benefits them in 1 to 5 words? Instead of it being BLACK HUSTLERS SECURITY COMPANY maybe it could be PITBULL SECURITY SERVICES. From that a potential customer can infer that your personnel will guard and protect their property with as much ferocity, stamina, and loyalty as man’s best friend…besides who isn’t afraid of a Pit bull?

For example, my business is Blue Jay Business Strategies...4 words that tell potential customers that we are:

creative strategists like the Blue Jay and we develop strategies for businesses

• MAKE YOUR BUSINESS’S NAME MEMORABLE. It’s all about how it sounds…and how easy it is to pronounce. If your aspirations are a global market then maybe it is best to have an English name since it is a universal language that almost everyone on the planet has been exposed to. If your aspirations are “local is lekker” then stick to a name that South Africans can pronounce with ease and understand no matter what their home language is.

Naming your business is not about you but a subtle way to tell your customers how your product or service benefits them….remember that.

Hope this helps someone 🙂

Businesses are not to be supported, they are not football teams. I see too many “Support my Business” campaigns. Sustainable businesses are built on need and value.

Do you need CHANGE?
CHANGE requires making choices. It is not enough to dream of CHANGING. It is not enough to desire CHANGE. In order for you to CHANGE, you will need to make a DECISION. You must choose to CHANGE. May God intervene on your behalf!

NEW EMOJIS ON THE WAY.

Unicode Consortium (the company that manages global emoji standards) has finally decided to go with the flow by introducing an emoji – a small red droplet-that will allow women to express themselves during that time of the month.

Also causing a stir is an emoji that the Unicode Consortium officially said it represents a “pinching hand” but those with lewd minds are saying (or thinking) that it represents the size of a man’s private parts.

“Throughout the centuries there were men who took first steps down new roads armed with nothing but their own vision.

Their goals differed, but they all had this in common: that the step was first, the road new, the vision unborrowed, and the response they received — hatred. The great creators — the thinkers, the artists, the scientists, the inventors — stood alone against the men of their time.

Every great new thought was opposed. Every great new invention was denounced. The first motor was considered foolish. The airplane was considered impossible. The power loom was considered vicious. Anesthesia was considered sinful. But the men of unborrowed vision went ahead.

They fought, they suffered and they paid. But they won.”
― Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead

TAKE CARE OF YOUR HEAD

1. A wrong mindset is the greatest hinderance to progress.
2. Pride makes your head spin and lose perspective
3. Your legs and arms can be willing and fighting for progress, but if your head has given up you are going no where slowly
4. When the head is not engaged, when your thinking is defective, even intensive labour will not guarantee any progress.
5. Those who develop their thinking, those who acquire more knowledge, those who work more with their heads, work less with their hands and legs.
6. A creative mind produces work for manual laborers.
7. Those who work with their heads and produce ideas will always rule and dominate those who work with their hands only

#2019 GOALS!

NO TOXIC RELATIONSHIPS.

If you take a piece of rotten fruit and place it beside perfectly good fruit... what happens?

The mold from the rotten fruit spreads over to the good fruit and both end up in bad condition. So what happens when you surround yourself with people who are negative? Just like them!
