What Inspired My Business
I spent the majority of my career with top technology companies in sales/marketing/business development roles and marketing to enterprise customers. In 2003, after being laid off, a friend asked me to help him market his small business. I learned a great deal about the challenges faced by a small business and he learned about best practices for marrketing his business. That is when I began working with small businesses as well as clients who market to small businesses.
 
Most Unusual Client or Client Story
 
Recent Business Surprise
Maybe this is more of an affirmation than a surprise but, I just worked with a client that proved you can start a business and succeed in a challenging economy. 1) They followed the Blue Ocean strategy and created a new market. 2) They developed a solid Saas offering that "simply works". 3) Their messaging is simple and clear. 4) Because their service is so unique, PR is relatively easy to come by.

Most Challenging Business Obstacle
 
Business Challenge
Finding Customers, Most small business owners have to work harder than ever to find and acquire customers. However; they also have to focus on daily operations and keeping existing customers happy. They don't have time to research online marketing, social networking or email marketing.
