I've just returned from speaking at the UKInbound convention in beautiful Torquay. The subject of my presentation was "Do you and your business need a lick of paint?" Torquay is undergoing a multi-million pould rejeneration but what about your business.
I promoted my audience to take a look at their printed material - if you started your business 5 years ago and made your own cards and stationery is it time for you to have them professionally designed?
When someone visits your premises are their leaves and rubbish leading up to your doorway (Er I just cleaned up mine!)
Does your business attire really reflect where your business is today and where it is going? Should you upgrade to a smarter look or perhaps adopting casual would be great for you.
Are you a consumate networker - are you speaking regularly about your business, are you blogging - do you need to update your communication or presentation skills?
My point is that you and your business are changing all the time and you need to make sure that you are checking and adjusting the image that you present to others. Write yourself a checklist and review it regularly

All businesses, large or small, would benefit from regular makeovers or business health checks. This can help to highlight areas within the business which need improvement ie sales. We work with a lot of companies who now offer sales staff incentives and rewards to work harder. They hire our unique hospitality coach for exclusive days out such as Nirvana Spa for relaxation or to a Chateau in France for a gourmet lunch. I put together this type of day trip and would like to hear if you have any ideas which we should be promoting to our customers?
Hello Ladies,
I wanted to say thank you for this networking opportunity and this new source of advice. :)
I'm only just starting out (new website, new business cards, it's all very exciting). It's great to get inspirational advice from people who are out there!
Keep going :)
