9 Excellent Reasons Businesses Should Blog!

Business TipsBy Donna StoneFebruary 4, 2020Leave a comment

From my experience with dealing with many small businesses in Australia as a business coach, I know that many businesses still don’t see the value in blogging.  I get it – it takes time, sometimes you’re stuck on what to write and, of course, maybe writing just isn’t your strength.  However, I must share that…

What AWESOME Customer Service Really Looks Like

Business TipsBy Donna StoneJanuary 21, 2020Leave a comment

As a business coach, I’m regularly talking to clients (and prospects) about their customer service.  Most people say they are great and really look after their customers.  I also know from decades of experience that if you surveyed a business’ customers you might not always get that same confidence in service.        …

I saw another coach getting a hard time on social media recently in respect of her success and it’s certainly not the first time I’ve seen successful people getting bagged for their success.  I’ve experienced it myself from time to time.  Seeing that post on social media inspired me to write this article and share…

Don’t Send Out Any Marketing Till You Have Done This!

Business CoachingBy Donna StoneNovember 19, 2019Leave a comment

Time and time again I see people send out marketing which just falls so far below par, that they are more than not engaging, they are shooting themselves in the foot.   You get only ONE chance to make a first great impression, so if the impression you make is sub-standard, poor or downright shabby, then…
