Charles H. Green presents We’ve Got the Hamburgers: a Customer Service Classic posted at Trust Matters, saying, “One day the Russian trainee pulled aside the trainer and said ““we’ve got the hamburgers. The customers don’t. They want them—we’ve got them. They have no choice. They’ve got to go through us. And you don’t want them getting ideas about who holds the power here. Just remember—we’ve got the hamburgers. Now do you understand?”” We laugh, but are we acting like our customers need our hamburgers more than we need them?”
Liz Fuller presents Holiday Lists Your Customers Will Want to Check Twice! posted at More Than WE Know, saying, “Want your customers to keep you top of mind this holiday season? Try these alternatives to traditional holiday cards.”
Ian Welsh presents The Risks of “Spreading the Risk” posted at The Agonist, saying, “I’ve always been very suspicious of the idea that securitization and insurance and re-insurance between financial institutions actually reduced risk. What it did, it seemed to me, was make small disasters much less common, and make having a big catastrophe much more likely. We’re now getting a test-out of whether the theory that “spreading the risk” was such a hot idea.”
David Kam presents Strategic Pricing, Setting the Price that is Just Right posted at MarketingDeviant.com, saying “Setting the right price for your products and services is a very important process. The price shouldn’t be too cheap, nor should it be too steep.”
Tomaz Mencinger presents The PPL Strategy – How To Make The Most Of Your Time And Talents posted at Financial Freedom Ideas, saying “Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion.”
iamawahm presents Toys Made in The USA – Work at Home Idea! posted at Mom Works at Home, saying “my entrepreneurial mind started scheming and thinking that this would be a great idea for a home based business.”
Mark Riffey presents Competitors: How to easily keep an eye on them. Free. posted at Business is Personal.
