Tips: Shopping Tip List

Here’s a list of tips you should consult when shopping online. Print this page and keep it in a handy place so it will be easy to review before you order.

Trust your instincts. If you don’t feel comfortable buying or bidding on an item over the web, or if you feel pressured to place your order immediately, maybe you shouldn’t.
Be knowledgeable about web-based auctions. Take special care to familiarize yourself not only with the rules and policies of the auction site itself but with the legal terms (warranties, refund policy, etc.) of the seller’s items that you wish to bid on.
Double check pricing. Be suspicious of prices that are too good to be true. Also consider carefully whether you may be paying too much for an item, particularly if you’re bidding through an auction site. You may want to comparison shop, online or offline, before you buy. Make sure there are not extra shipping or handling costs. (more…)

Why Social Media?

Post published:July 29, 2011

So whats the big deal? Do you really need to be a part of this "phenomenon"? Is it worth investing in? The answer to both those questions is a resounding YES. Maintaining a social media presence can be invaluable for your business. Not only does it put your business where your customers are, but it gives them a direct conduit to interact with you. It also gives you a direct line to market to and interact with current and future clients. It puts your business in front of literally thousands of faces that would otherwise most likely never hear of you. Some…

Its our Birthday!

Post published:May 8, 2011

Everybody has a friend who announces his or her birthday waaaaaay before it’s time just to ensure that people remember. If you frequently forget birthdays like I do (including my own if I’m lucky), this can be helpful to ensure you don’t forget to celebrate, send birthday wishes, etc. But it can get a tad tedious to listen to that countdown (Two weeks until my birthday! One week until my birthday! My birthday is tomorrow! It’s my BIRTHDAAAAAAAY!). I mean, it’s not a nuclear missile launch, and it’s not your birthday. (more…)
