Advertising Hit or Miss?
Is this advertising gone wrong? For me being a consumer it is. I wasn't sure if they were advertising the intuit payment reader, cell phone, or service provider. Watching it initially I thought it was marketing for intuit... You be the judge. Watch the video let us know what you think.

Small Business...WHAT IS IT TO YOU?
Small Business Saturday and Cyber Monday. What is it to you?
7952 participates in both via our online Boutique. I do think this is a great way to help promote your business and possibly gain customers. I remember when I first heard about Small Business Saturday last year. I thought it was a good idea. I understand the notion of helping small businesses; however, being a small business owner myself I don't understand why many think we should have to discount our products or services to gain a customer base. Do you think discounting is part of the reason some small businesses are struggling? Giving away too many products for free? Polling a few people I did find that if your business is not giving a percentage off in some form they aren't interested in viewing your products or services.
Small Businesses must set a standard and be consistent. If discounting hasn't worked it's time to reevaluate and make the necessary changes to move forward. Make it your business to make Everyday Small Business Day for your company. Promote your business and stay connected.
I guess I'm on a different level. Being a customer of many other businesses I'm more concerned with quality and customer service than getting discounts. If discounts are offered that's just an added bonus. What do you think?

COPY THAT!!!!!
Is copying the new original?
Kinko's isn't the only place shelling out copies. We all know there isn't anything new under the sun (even though we all want to think otherwise). Tipping into the world of fashion I've noticed many claiming to be "the first". I will say however, I was the first and only to create the EMERGENCY BROADCAST earrings. So Back up.
It doesn't matter where you obtain your copies. A copy is a copy. If you get them from someone you know, someone you don't know, or from celebrity designers. (hold on I just fell in the shade). We all draw inspiration from many different sources. I get that. Just make sure that's all you draw.
Whatever you do make it your own. Don't put Kinko's out of business.
Remember imitation is not flattering. It's LAZY AND ANNOYING. Now Copy That.

Heavenly Scents!
I don't think there was a single person that came through
the door didn't stop by Heavenly Scents! Her products
are ALL NATURAL which we love.
I purchased a bar of unscented shea butter soap. I must say I was very
pleased with the results after the first use. Having very sensitive skin coupled
with allergies and eczema Heavenly Scents worked wonders!
I wish I would have taken a before and after picture of the results.
No worries I'll have an update with pictures soon!

Maybe it's you...I KNOW IT IS.
I'm not the one to only preach on supporting African American businesses. I believe in supporting any business with great products and services that fulfills my need. I must address yet again the unprofessional behavior of the African America businesses I've encountered.
Dear AA Business owners,
Stop complaining about being supported by others when your products and services are less than stellar. Stop believing other businesses and or consumers are "hating" on your business. Realize many individuals have certain things they prefer. You should know and accept the difference between preference and so called hate. Understand and accept you won't get everything right every time. Be honest with yourself and your customers/clients. Whether you believe it or not, putting your ego and pride aside, clients are willing to continue doing business with you if you acknowledge your mishaps. Letting them go as if they never existed will definitely do more harm.
If a client emails you for any reason it's best business practice to ALWAYS respond. I recently emailed two businesses to make them aware of my observations and their unprofessional way of handling business. Only one has responded. (not to mention, I waited a month after the incident to see if they would acknowledge anything) It was refreshing to see them accept responsibility. Still to date the other company has not yet replied. Are they embarrassed? is it ego? pride? or maybe they just don't care?
I said that to say. I'd rather not hear or read post about why people aren't supporting you when you aren't doing your part to make sure you are worthy of support.
So AA business owners, SUPPORT & PROMOTE YOUR BUSINESS, MAKE SURE YOU ARE PROJECTING A POSITIVE BRAND IMAGE ON EVERY LEVEL, ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY, REALIZE YOUR BUSINESS AND SERVICES AREN'T FOR EVERYONE...AND THAT'S OKAY. IF NOT, MAYBE BEING IN BUSINESS JUST SOUNDS GREAT TO YOU RATHER THAN BEING A GREAT BUSINESS...if this is the case STFU and CLOSE.
