Better blogging: Who to read who to watch how to be a confident
Better blogging: Who to read, who to watch, how to be a confident audience.
It sometimes seems that there are more bloggers out there than readers. We are all readers, so that will never be a problem. So how you do narrow down who to read? How to you ensure that if you are a blogger, you’ll be in that segment? I’m going to use wine as my primary example here, because it’s a unique industry that receives a lot of attention in the blogosphere.

We recently had a staff meeting/training session for new employees at the winery. Here are my top 5 notes on providing a superior customer experience while pouring wine and presenting a winery.

Saturday, 22 August 2009 23:11 | Written by Allan |
So here's the issue - group tasting fees at a winery. Tasting fees vary. A lot. Although it's less common, some places even provide a free tasting. Usually these will be wineries with less "party" traffic and more of a "buying" crowd. The "party bus" wineries don't really have a choice but to charge for tastings, because, well, wine tasting isn't about free booze. So that’s understandable. But where does the average winery stand? It's often suggested that a winery should comp tastings with a purchase. But what about when it comes to big groups? If you are part of this crowd - where do you stand? Shouldn't you get "group discounts," if not at least the same price as say - your weekend getaway couple? ...Not so fast. Last Updated (Thursday, 03 September 2009 02:11) |
Why is it? - Twitter Apps don't Follow

Why is it that out of the million Twitter applications, I can't find a single one that allows you to view the list of followers (as displayed on www.twitter.com) so that you can follow back the people who - der - most recently followed you?

Why is it that Anti-virus software, aside from being the most convoluted industry on planet earth (you know it - search "anti virus" on Google,) comes with 3 (no less) add-on features and a "constantly running, 24 hour protection" system? Last Updated (Sunday, 30 August 2009 14:52) |
