Semi-Implementation Day 11 – One step forward two steps back
The Good:
– Keeping on top of Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.
Still a lot to learn on these, but getting better. Hootsuite is great for this.
– I put an enquiry form on the Magic-Weddings website
– Tweaked the Christmas Party Magician enquiry form
– Followed up more contacts from our tele-sales experiment
– Research and quote proposal for a big potential client
– Set up some new email accounts and their accessibility from different machines and different users.
The Bad:
– Stuff, stuff and more stuff getting in the way of productivity.
