Digg it UP - Paradigm Shift for the New World
In some states, people can work as an accountant even if they have no formal education or experience whatsoever. In order to impose standards of quality and respectability upon the accounting industry, the idea of a CPA was born.A CPA is someone who has earned a board-certified accounting license that guarantees that he or she has at least the entry-level skills required to be a good accountant.If an accountant acts in an incompetent or unethical way, his or her CPA license can be revoked. Furthermore, a CPA is required to receive continuing education in the accounting field, to ensure that he or she stays up to date with the latest updates and changes in information. Each CPA license is granted for only one of the 55 U.S. jurisdictions, which include each state, plus the District of Columbia, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands.

The banality surrounding the issue of plain email correspondence is deafening upon the ears of those in charge of corporate brands. One-to-one email correspondence is a direct link to the hearts and wallets of the customers. I like to use the analogy of CPR when dealing with email. Every email sent deals with “C”, “P”, “R” – Customer, Prospect, and Relationship. They are a customer, a prospect, or an established relationship. Customers are only customers until they have been targeted as a prospect of another company. With global ties and instant communication, the staging front for the retention and acquisition of a customer falls into the “Inbox”.
How do you fight a battle you do not know you are in? What measures do you take to make sure you are proactive in this invisible war of self-administered sales sorting? I cannot stress enough the importance of your everyday email and the impact it has on those who receive it. Every company, every day, everybody, everywhere is fighting fo
Why should you when it’s just as easy to hang tough, and insist on The Big Four instead of settling for a collection of communications tactics that simply let you move a message from one point to another? And not much more.What’s the Big Four? In public relations, its recognition by business, non-profit, government agency or association managers,1) that strategic PR can lead directly to achieving the unit’s managerial objectives,2) that the managers are doing something really significant about those important outside audience behaviors that MOST affect the department, group, division or subsidiary unit they manage,3) that they will then be in a position to persuade those key external audiences to their way of thinking,4) and, based on having persuaded many members of that key external audience to their views on the issue in question, move them to take
The business world is changing; we are utilizing innovative ways to market and sell to the masses but have yet to harness the true power of the innovations we utilize. In 1971, a computer engineer named Ray Tomlinson sent a message from one computer to another. "I sent a number of test messages to myself from one machine to the other," he states, little did he know that his unassuming technological breakthrough would shape the face of modern day communications.
Ironically, he mentions, "The test messages were entirely forgettable. Most likely the first message was QWERTYIOP or something similar." Over thirty years later, emails still retain that same QWERTYIOP look and are forgotten the second they are read.
Today’s industry operates in a world with unlimited geographical boundaries. Long gone are the days of customer loyalty to the neighborhood clothing retail store or the home delivery service of your favourite merchant. Businesses now are utilizing the power of the Internet to expand their market, retain customers through minimal “face time” interaction and deal in a world of binary code instead of personal handshakes and in store accounts. With companies adopting new strategies to operate in this “digital world”, Ray Tomlinson’s innovation is still utilized in true 1970’s fashion.
Leverage the Power of the Consumer
To view the existing business model and to evaluate new processes to increase revenue, we must step away from our preconceived world and look from the outside at the reality of the market place. The consumers themselves, combined with email innovations can penetrate a market at an exponential rate and promote a brand at a viral level.
I am referring to everyday email. What if the consumer received an email that did much more than convey a message? What if they received an email that enticed further interaction and dynamics? The viral nature of a well-designed and implemented email can expand the reach and results of the message itself.
Branded Email Brings Results
Under the most conservative figures, over 7 billion emails are sent each day. Some reports show that number to be closer to 30 billion with an anticipated 60 billion emails send per day by 2006. The power of this innovative communication method can be uniquely tailored to any industry by changing the way we look at how our products are marketed.
When I am referring to branded email, I am not speaking about mass email campaigns. I am not talking about auto-responders, header/footer type graphics or simple stationary. I am referring to professional applications that allow customized dynamics and a lasting impression.
The key to maximizing your results is to provide an end product (email) that is representative of the image and brand you want to portray. Every email can either help or denigrate your brand and in the end, have an impact on the success and viability of your company.
When the email is received, you want the recipient to be impressed; you want them to further explore what you have to offer. You don’t want them to dismiss your message due to the visual content.
So What Are The Advantages?
The advantages of using a system like this are very simple and straightforward. With every email you send, you provide the recipient with access to sales information they might not have received otherwise. You can direct them to places you want them to visit, view presentations you want them to see and interact in ways you know will help close a deal. You are sending these emails anyway so why not send something that will provide an impact and results. The options for the dynamic abilities are endless.

A few years ago, one of my competitors, a consultant located in Ohio, would have his prospects call me to compare his prices to mine.At that time, he knew I charged more than twice the fee he quoted: “$1,200 per day.”Although I was always concerned about not winning business, I never put two and two together and connected my disappearing prospects to this guy’s manipulations, until he disclosed his strategy to me, in a moment of boastng and rare transparency.Here’s the kicker.Ninety-plus percent of the time I billed for was on-site. So, if I had a client in Cleveland, I wouldn’t break out a separate fee for traveling time or for preparation time. If I quoted $2,500 a day, plus out of pocket expenses then that was exactly what the client paid.My competitor, however, charged this way. He’d bill for three days at $1,200. One day was on-site and two days were off-sit

Many corporations will endorse sports figures or celebrities to promote their products and services and it makes sense because so often these people are indeed looked up to by others and they will influence buying decisions, fashion and society to a large degree. But what happens when a sports endorsement goes bad? What happens when your athlete has been caught with a hooker, tested positive for steroids or committed a crime?Then what do you do? Well sometimes you do nothing and simply pull the ads off Television, sometimes you can the athlete and sometimes you make a public statement that you do not condone that activity and this irresponsible behavior is not what we stand for and sack the quarterbacks endorsement big time.There are so many examples of public relations sports endorsement disasters and then there are super successes with athletes such as; Tiger Woods, Lance Armstrong

How do you fight a battle you do not know you are in? What measures do you take to make sure you are proactive in this invisible war of self-administered sales sorting? I cannot stress enough the importance of your everyday email and the impact it has on those who receive it. Every company, every day, everybody, everywhere is fighting for space in someone’s “Inbox”. Whether it is a large corporation or a small corporation, the fight exists and in the “Inbox”, the company size holds no bearing.
The inbox is the modern day interpretation of a level playing field. What lies within the content of the message is the perception of reality and the level at which that company operates. Small companies, who leverage their inbox strategies, don’t stay small for long.
Why is it that as an aggressive business culture, we are negligent to advance and utilize existing proven technologies such as email? Email has stayed stagnant long enough, it is time to take advantage of what we presently have and make it work for us. With global trade barriers shrinking by the day, we must do all we can to ensure that we retain the right to our customers and fight the Inbox battle with sweeping professional perceptions instead of a meek, mundane, faceless company gathered in the halls of the inbox underachieved.
Initiative
Every day that passes, opportunities in the thousands to brand and market the companies’ services are missed. A consistent brand from the corporation can have a sweeping effect on the marketplace in grandiose proportions.
The technology is now available for companies’ to capture the potential of their customer base. We must embrace such opportunities and “tap into” the power of everyday email. It is an open, dynamic and growing market that cannot be ignored any longer.
