Christmas: time for travelling and thinking about the future.

I haven’t touched my notes or done any homework at all during last week. Quite understandable as I have been travelling fromLondon to Barcelona and from there, to Seville where I am right now celebrating Christmas with my family. There is a need to share this time of the year with them and knowing we spend almost half of it having amazing lunches and dinners, this is the best part of the celebration, even more in my home Country.

On the other side to all these good news we find the end of the year and the new one arriving still quite difficult because of the crisis. So why don’t follow some simple ideas and tips to maintain and improve our business?

- Don’t pigeonhole yourself into particular markets, it is not all about back gardens. What about country garden markets, care homes or hospitals?

- Build contacts. As it is been said in previous posts, it is the time to network with other individuals or start partnerships with other professionals.

- Make sure your contact details are up to date. Put your business name into Google and check everything is all right.

- Brush up your promotional material in quieter weeks. Project sheets, PowerPoint demos can be always changed and improved.

- And finally, go in for awards and competitions; you never know what you might win…
