Integrating the Apple iPad and front office support

Jeffrey Noe — Fri, 04 Mar 2011 08:50:00 -0600

The day-to-day responsibilities of running a small business can be challenging. The balance of serving current clients while making time to grow business and attract new clients can feel overwhelming. Fortunately, we are living in an age where technology exists to help business owners free time and relieve stress of every day operations, leaving time to focus on serving clients and grow business. With this week's launch of Apple's iPad 2, it is timely to explore the technology that exists to make our lives easier and more productive.

The Loyalty Routine

My Receptionist Staff — Fri, 18 Feb 2011 15:13:00 -0600

Like many of you, I buy a cup of coffee from the same convenience store each morning. One could say that I am loyal to that store. I am loyal because I know how much the coffee costs. I’m loyal because I know where the coffee machines are and how to use them. I am loyal because I know where to find the plastic covers and sugar packets. I’m loyal because I know the cashier’s name.

New Year's Resolutions for your Business

Jeffrey Noe — Fri, 14 Jan 2011 12:38:00 -0600

As we get further towards February each year, many experience the death of any New Year’s Resolution they may have assembled the previous year. I’ll admit that I’m not one to make too many New Resolutions because I believe they give people a good excuse to put off something that could dramatically improve their business or life immediately. I do believe, however, that for some they truly serve as an opportunity to start the New Year fresh and finally complete something that for whatever reason just didn’t get accomplished the prior year.

Thank your clients, during the holidays and every day

My Receptionist Staff — Fri, 03 Dec 2010 15:05:00 -0600

Many business owners use the holidays as a time of year to give their clients that extra "thank you" for their patronage. Cards, small gifts and appreciation events are standard ways to thank those most loyal to your business. The holidays are also a very expected time of year to express your gratitude and it is easy for your message to get caught up in the clutter. While this is a special time of year, what are you doing the rest of the year to show your appreciation?

Your customers are bored. Be a game-changer.

Jeffrey Noe — Fri, 06 Aug 2010 10:21:00 -0600

Every industry has a standard way to conducting business. This “doctrine or code of beliefs” is rarely challenged. Industry dogma most often wins out boldly shouting “Don’t change! This is the way we’ve always done it!”

Charity Marketing: Grow your business through a charitable partership

Kate Noe — Fri, 23 Jul 2010 10:35:00 -0600

Get your Groupon on!

Norm Green — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 15:36:00 -0600

Mass couponing seems to be more prevalent during slower economic times as businesses try promotional methods hoping for a spike in business. Couponing seems like an innocent little marketing tool with the theory being to throw out an offer in hopes that it will bring in customers (or sales) that you wouldn’t have otherwise. Marketer beware—knowledge is key to any campaign's success.

More than Money: Motivating Employees Through Recognition

Bonnie Patzer — Fri, 04 Jun 2010 10:09:00 -0600

When it comes to satisfaction and motivation to succeed in our jobs, is it really all about the money? After all, isn’t money the key reason people stay in their jobs? You might be surprised to hear that this couldn’t be further from the truth.

Walk Away From Your Business

Norm Green — Tue, 25 May 2010 13:58:00 -0600

Managing a group of independent practitioners can be a consuming task. Many practice owners spend the majority of their time playing ‘traffic controller’, trying to connect their independent practitioners ‘loose’ availability with client appointment requests. They commit to a clients appointment request, then try to find a practitioner on their ‘list’ that can take the appointment.

Cutting through the Public Relations Clutter

Kate Noe — Wed, 05 May 2010 11:13:00 -0600

We’ve all heard the old adage “Advertising you pay for, PR you pray for.” Public relations is an important aspect to any well-planned marketing program. Securing free press by the media can bring a great amount of attention and notoriety to your business and it is still the most credible form of marketing that exists.

Google Apps, Something Worth Considering

My Receptionist Staff — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 15:19:00 -0600

More and more business applications are moving to the “cloud computing” platform; a term used to describe software that is provided over the internet rather than on a user’s computer. Google has helped lead the cloud computing revolution in developing a suite of applications designed to support many of today’s most important business software needs.

Be Responsive, Retain Your Clients

Norm Green — Wed, 27 Jan 2010 16:19:00 -0600

As a client of massage for over 28 years I have experienced the amazing, good, bad and the ugly in the hundreds of massages that I have received.

Dealing with chronic pain, I’m typically a loyal client when I find a therapist that relates to me and provides relief for my pain. My time, money and dire need for pain relief do not allow me the luxury to accept anything less that my expectations being met.
