Posted on February 29, 2008 - Filed Under PU, Travel, Zzub - 1 Comment

When I travel on business, I typically prefer to stay at business hotels. All the business amenities are there and it’s so easy to get things done unlike the touristy, family type of hotel where the focus is more on fun and entertainment.
I would rather do without the fancy bathroom vanities and settle for a [...]

If you’re unsure whether it’s a phishing email

Posted on February 29, 2008 - Filed Under Business Diary - Leave a Comment

These days, it’s getting harder to distinguish between a phishing email and a genuine one. I received one sometime ago which I wasn’t sure about. I subsequently forgot all about it until today. I went back and reread the email and it sounded genuine. But I couldn’t be sure.
I compare that email with some others [...]

Posted on February 26, 2008 - Filed Under Blogging - 1 Comment

Some time ago, a blogger did an interesting study about whether people swear on their blogs and I’ve been meaning to put in my two cents. It’s long been a pet peeve of mine that not only do people swear on their blogs, many times they also do it in their own language thinking that [...]

Is selling term life insurance for everyone? I guess it would be fair to say that not everyone can make a success of everything they do. But there are many people I know of who have done extremely well in freelance insurance sales.

Spam and the lack of business ethics

Posted on February 24, 2008 - Filed Under Marketing, PU, Zzub - Leave a Comment

Over the holidays, I made the mistake of trying to take a picture of a Christmas tree that was displayed just beside one of those credit card promotions kiosks.
The promoter immediately jumped on me and talked me into applying for a credit card that promises discounts to my favorite stores.

I’m not sure how many of you still send out cards to your customers. With e-cards being such a convenience these days, I doubt that physical cards sent via snail mail are as popular as they used to be.
Yet it would be a mistake to underestimate what a personalized greeting card or birthday card could [...]

The beauty and flexibility of an online business

Here’s something else I love about online business. Seeing as how quiet the city is during the festive holidays, it got me thinking how grateful online business owners should be for the fact that they don’t have to worry about locking up their business premises and worrying about the security of what’s in those premises.
