Business TipsBy Donna StoneJune 22, 2016Leave a comment

  Not turning up.   Needless to say you won’t be getting that job!   So often you contact someone for a quote and they don’t respond or it’s over a week for them to respond.   If you are flat out and don’t want work, consider downgrading your marketing OR consider putting on more staff to cover…

Is Your Digital Profile Current?

Business CoachingBy Donna StoneJune 8, 20161 Comment

It’s amazing how much business we get from our online digital profile.  People do ‘Google’ us before making the decision to work with us – checking us out personally as well as our business.   It’s not stalking, it’s smart business as we want to be sure we are working with someone reliable, trustworthy and who…

What Makes an Extraordinary Leader?

Business CoachingBy Donna StoneJune 5, 2016Leave a comment

I don’t believe leaders are born; I believe they are made.   Being a great leader doesn’t happen by chance.   Not everyone has the skills, abilities or desire for that matter to take the lead (and take the responsibility associated).   Being a great leader does not just constitute asking for a bigger pay packet or giving yourself…

Why Businesses Flounder Along On The Brink Of Failure

Business CoachingBy Donna StoneApril 14, 2016Leave a comment

I so often see business owners struggling and I know why, but often they just won’t take action to improve their situation. It’s rarely a conscious decision “I won’t action anything because I want to fail or I like struggling” but more they don’t realise what they are doing. Let me share more on this:…

Are You Passionate or Are You Emotional?

Business CoachingBy Donna StoneApril 8, 2016Leave a comment

When I sold my business, I was asked by so many people “are you excited?” or “are you sad?”.   I was neither.  To me I had simply sold an asset.   Don’t get me wrong, I was passionate about that business, but I wasn’t emotional about it.       How to slow things down in…
