Exposure is Everything

Exposure is everything in business. If you don't tell people what you do they will never know. Your fortune, however is in your follow up. As a business owner in 2011 what type of exposure are you getting? If you are not on the www (world wide web) you are losing thousands if not millions of potential customers, which for you as a business owner means MONEY!!
Let me define a business owner: a man, woman, or person engaged in a business. A business is a person,partnership,or corporation engaged in commerce, manufacturing or a service; profit seeking enterprise or concern.
Many people in our society fear the Internet,and the loss of their anonymity(being unknown),yet they are business owners. Believe me when I say,if you are alive in 2011,have a drivers license,have attended a school,ever applied for any type of loan , car,home,school,credit card,business, if you have a cell phone pre-paid or not,email or even have applied for a job, ecetera,ecetera you are known. When we are born we are given a number it is our identifier from birth to death. We have certificates of birth and death, I could go on about the amount of information about us that is available, but I won't. It is not the point of this post. I will say that I speak with many in our society who think they are hiding or have something to lose by providing information about themselves that is easily and readily accessible with a small amount of research.
The topic exposure as a business owner is everything takes on a whole new meaning in the 21st century. Our society now is the high tech information age. We want information,yesterday. Before I visit a business no matter what type I google it or yahoo it or bing it. To me they are almost irrelevant, non-existent, or not a legitimate business without an Internet presence.
Why not have maximum exposure when most of the www is free to use, it was created by scientist and is such a useful tool? The follow up is easy with the social media like twitter,Facebook,linkedin and many others, you can reach potential customers on their phones,iPods, and iPads instantly,and vice versa. We also satisfy many of our human needs with the social media like our need to belong,our need to share or get information and our desire to be heard or recognized all while promoting our business to the world.
DSWoodard consulting is a global business entity. We desire to assist those who find value in our service. We assist you in life 101 so that you may be the best you,and you have continued growth,learning,and success. As you have taken time to read this post you have grown and it cost you nothing it is free information you were seeking that I used a social media tool to get to you. Now you have a choice, a wise millionaire friend of mine from Washington,DC, Mr. Mike Humes says, "choice is doing that which is preferred." So make a choice today to get better and build the success you want for your business and your family, or remain the same and give me a flyer or business card that may get lost. Oh and google Mr. Humes his business is world wide too.
Much success to you

How to get Government Contracts, Quickly.

 Great Evening High Achievers!!  There are 3 days left in this last quarter of 2023.  We made it, and we are going to be even greater in 2024.  This was a trying and a wonderful year for our business.  We have cried and laughed as we learned from trial and error how to get things done.  There are more lessons to learn and more opportunities to take advantage of.  I want to share with you a few things about getting your business out of the rat race and into the government contracting place.   Do you know what M.B.E.'s, W.B.E.'s, V.B.E.'s, D.B.E.'s, and A.C.D.B.E's are?  No this is not Sesame Street.  These letters stand for Minority Business Entity, Women Business Entity, Disadvantaged Business Entity, and Airport Concession Disadvantaged Business Entity.  This is how the government classifies different types of businesses for their sponsored programs.  The statistics for the amount of contracts awarded to these entities ar...

How Do You Spell Love? Time !

  Good Morning High Achievers!  The holiday season is here and spending time is so important especially now.  Happiness is an inside job.  The main reason for being great and creating a legacy is so that you leave great memories and traditions to pass from generation to generation.   This year my family and I began a new tradition for what others call Thanksgiving.  We haven't celebrated in a few years, since finding out that what we thought was the reason was not true, but we still continued to gather, now we have decided that what we would like to do is travel for this holiday, since the rest of society is closed at the same time.   As a business owner and a person who works in corporate America I've found that we can get so caught up in the everyday hustle and bustle routine that we forget to pause, relax and enjoy the fun parts in life.  We don't know how much time we have and it doesn't matter what our age is.  These are my gra...

Are You Doing Too Much? How Do You Know?

From my I-Phone  Greetings High Achievers!! It is the middle of the summer season.  It has been such a hot summer, yet I still find time to get out and walk daily.  The photo to the left is of a flock of geese crossing the lake that we walk across.  I wanted to share this for two reasons, one it's beautiful and two every photo on the internet costs money.  I understand that people like to get paid, but there was a time I could get quality photos with a few clicks.  Well what's been going on in your business world?   I have been building a few things as usual.  Many times I think I'm doing too much.  Often I think I'm not doing enough.  As soon as I think that one of my business partners decides that they want to be so active and push the business along for five minutes, and then I'm on my own again.  Have you had times of  discouragement in your business endeavors?  I'm sure we all have.  This past year I have fo...
