    Printing company changing lanes - How do I get local B2B orders?

    Why aren't you looking at finding new online customers? If you have been making sales worldwide that way but need more, enhancing what you are doing would seem more logical than switching to what is in effect a completely new business model. I don't think anyone on here would know your...

    How widely are the EPR regulations being advertised

    I attended a webinar about the EPR regulations last year. They don't directly affect me, but they will affect some of my clients. Companies that are covered by them should have started gathering data at the start of this year. It has just struck me that I haven't heard anyone talking about...

    Good advice. I will follow it.

    Mailchimp or Hubspot?

    That's a good question. Yes I do send newsletters and yes they generate leads - but I am planning to increase my activity and grow my list. I have a feeling I should be doing more to engage with my audience, which Mailchimp doesn't help with much. I want to segment my contacts so I can...

    Mailchimp or Hubspot?

    I started my business offering lab and consulting services to personal care and topical pharmaceutical companies 10 years ago. It hasn't proved to be too difficult to find clients and I've tended to go through the motions on marketing as I've always had enough work. But things are a bit...

    Rates recovery and re-set. Sounds too good to be true, but also sounds plausible.

    I got a call out of the blue yesterday from someone who told me I'd been overpaying on my rates for two years and offering to get me a refund in return for a percentage. He describes it as a Rates recovery and re-set and that his company specialises in it. He'd got hold of my rate payments...

    Good credit card options for employees

    So my business is growing slowly but surely and I've reached the stage where I no longer want to be the only one paying bills. So I am just about to simply ask my bank for a couple of credit cards so my key employees can make purchases without having to find me. I am just wondering if there...

    Money owed by a soothing delayer

    The contract is unambiguous and nothing is disputed, so I simply need to file the papers. I'm just making sure there isn't an alternative way of going about it.

    Money owed by a soothing delayer

    I've got a customer who is a very charming man and has built up a large network. He's the kind of guy who almost seems to run a business as a pretext for networking rather than the other way around. He's a real people person and must have contacts book that needs to be carried around on a...

    manufacturing in china

    Do you have to go to China? Your post suggests the only reason is that it is cheaper over there. Have you tested that idea? The most recent comparison I have done for a shortish run the UK quote and the Chinese quote were identical to within a penny per unit. Factor in the risk of currency...

    Im planning on Refreshing my Webcontent...

    I didn't think it was too bad, but then I read the thread and realised that you have already acted on advice you have been given. Full marks for working quickly. I would drop the twitter feed altogether. The only people who will be interested in keeping a close watch on what you are doing are...

    Microsoft Sharepoint for Free

    Is it easy to use? A 180 day trial does sound good, you should be able to really get the idea of whether it is any good or not in that time.
