We all know it is easier and cheaper to retain a customer than it is to acquire new ones. Customer loyalty is a direct result of your company’s customer service and overall marketing efforts.
A dis-satisfied customer becomes a liability. Not only are they not going to purchase from you again, they may go out and say negative things about your company.
If you have a problem, deal with it right away. You will gain more respect from your customers than a company that is slow to react. Building a life-long customer increases the reputation of your company and attracts new customers through word-of-mouth.
Remember, if you do not look after your customers someone else will.

Part I: Updating Your Logo
On the internet image is everything: The web is a truly visual experience. The appearance and usability of your company’s website shapes a visitor’s perception as to the quality and reliability of your business as a whole. One could argue that having no website would be less harmful to your company’s reputation than an out-of-date and or broken/limited functionality website. The flipside, of course, is to present your visitors with pages that are visually appealing, easy-to-use to make a strong positive impression. This is an important element of building a lasting business relationship and ultimately greater success for you.
A good logo is a key element of your business’ presence. It conveys information about your business on an almost subconscious level. If you logo looks old, unbalanced, and thrown together those negative concepts will invariably carry over to the perception of your services ...[more]

Are you a thief’s best friend? (Identity Theft and your company)
Identity theft is defined as the process of using someone else’s personal information for your own personal gain.
Statistics published by SpendOnLife.com show that identity fraud involving Credit Cards, Utilities, Bank Accounts & Loans, and Employment represent 78% of the identity fraud cases reported.
Low-tech methods for stealing personal information are still the most popular for identity thieves. Stolen wallets and physical documents accounted for 43% of all identity theft, while online methods accounted for only 11%.
More than 35 million data records were compromised in corporate and government data breaches in 2008 (ITRC).
So, what is one to do? The battle being fought is actually on two fronts. ...[more]
One of the fun things about using Tire Power is finding and using some of the nifty little features in the software which are not always readily apparent to the normal user. Often times these features can enhance your experience with the software, and make you more efficient in your day to day job. From time to time, I will try to point out some of these lesser known features so you too can make the most of your Tire Power software.
One of the things Tire Power does really well is tracking non-stock or “special order” inventory. More times than not, these items tend to be parts, but certainly are not restricted only to that. One of the issues I have heard time and time again, especially from new users, is under their old software or paper invoice system they did not have an easy way to look up where they purchased non-stock parts from. This is an issue in case they have a warranty problem or just need to reorde ...[more]
