How to Create a Customer Survey
I come from the field of psychology, and I’ve moved into marketing along the way. One thing that I often see is really bad customer surveys. I think this is due to the fact that making online surveys has gotten so easy, there are number of really good products like google forms, formspring, survey monkey, and a lot of others, that make it very easy for you to have your own online survey technically.

Entrepreneurship
I have grown up to believe that entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial actions were people and actions designed to enrich themselves. Good things, in a social stance, could basically only be arrived by government and non-profit organizations. I think there are more people in my generation that have grown up with that picture in mind and I would like to set that right. What I have experienced over the last few months has taught me that this is absolutely not true.

Delegating Work
A boss who delegates work to one’s employees will gain a lot of benefits. But there are several reasons that could discourage one from delegating work. For example, the boss might be afraid that his employees will make big mistakes, or he might think that he can do the work better, or he might be afraid that his employees will become better than him. However, the true measure of a good boss is one who knows how to delegate work to his employees. By doing so, he is showing that he trusts his employees, and takes work delegating as an opportunity for them to improve and grow.

I was first hooked to GTD [getting things done] by a very easy metaphor and question. The question David Allen asked was, “What do you do before you go on vacation?” The answer was, “You get everything ready so you can go on vacation.” What does ‘get everything ready’ mean? It’s about taking care of all unfinished business you might have. And because I will be going on vacation, it’s what I will do; I will take care of unfinished business.

So far, the approach to Facebook has been mainly from a marketing perspective. Most of the things I read about businesses on this popular social network are that businesses may have their own site on Facebook. In fact, this is how it’s known to most users as well; they build fans on this social network and use it to communicate with customers. It may be a communication between the business to the consumer, and sometimes its business to business.

The idea is that decisions should be something rational; that you should be able to point out why you did something. However, I believe that this is pretty much rubbish. If we listen to our feelings, I think that’s when we get the most important information.
Free WiFi access in Restaurants and Bars
If you have a bar or restaurant and you would like people to come in to eat and drink beverages, there is one easy thing that you can do and that is get people free WiFi access. Sounds pretty simple, but is it really that easy? Yes, and the only thing you need to do is take a router, which costs around 50 to 200 bucks, lock it in to your assistant network, and get a computer gate to make sure it’s all safe and people won’t hack into your computer. Hacking is big trouble.

I would like to find out which way I am going with my business. At the moment, I have two ideas in my head for Serious Marketing. One way is to be an adviser. I’ll advise other people about marketing and online psychology. I’ll do that as a freelancer or consultant for another company. Or, I could do the marketing for my own company and its products. Obviously, this is something very financially interesting. This way, it all goes back to me, back into my pocket.
