Jul

I had little time this morning ... so I went to Starbuck and ordered soy latte. With tax and tip, a tall soy latte (smaller then McDonald's Small Coffee) cost $5.00. I killed time drawing Pompom. I miss him a lot.

No More Apple

Jul

Few months ago my Apple Watch broke ... I thought long and hard about buying new Apple Watch. Then, I have decided to go with something different and purchase Fitbit Versa.

I used to own a Fitbit and I loved it. It was one of those pendant size one. Now I own one look kind of like Apple Watch. I will let you know what I think.

Next Company Van

Jul

28

We have been using minivan for the longest time. We started with Chevrolet, Toyota and Honda. We have had back to back using Honda Odysseys totalling for 8 years now. It served very well with no trouble at all. I am very impressed with the quality of those Hondas.

However, the current Odyssey is with us for 5 years and has less than 20,000 miles. That means we are not using the minivan like we used to. So, I am now hoping around for new vehicle fore replacement.

I came across of small minivan called Ford Transit Connect. It is much smaller and cheaper than minivans from Honda, Toyota or Chrysler. As a matter of fact, it is a passenger version of work van.

I don't see any competing vehicle except NISSAN NV200 ... but is is a cargo van and passenger version is a taxi.

Opinion vs Survey

Jul

27

http://www.opinionstand.com

When we present OpinionStand to business owners, they do often confuse customers' opinion with survey. Opinion stand is lear what customers are feeling about the experience by pressing one of the faces. It is simple and quick.

But many business owners feel that is not enough. They do want their customers to tell you what they like and do not like about business. If you are a business owner and if you do not know what is good or bad about your business, you need more than a survey.

OpinionStand is not designed to help you pinpoint the problem. It I sgesign to provide you with guideline, direction. If you know when over 10% of customers are not happy, you need to do something. This is a perfect tool for that.

Seattle Traffic.

Jul

Right after 9:00am, it took almost one hour to travel 15 miles from Seatac Airpot to my office. Traffic is bad and light rail is not going t provide relief. It is good alternative, but it will not replace cars.

Opinion Matters

Jul

14

Even a Government Cares About your Opinion!

Everything now is always evaluated and share on the Internet. One bad experience by one customer can spread like a national news. So, you need to make sure your know what customers are thinking. For that we have created opinion stand.

But many people evaluating Opinion Stand wants to ask customers to write and explain what they did not like. When people do not want like something and give you a bad review on Opinion Stand ... You should know what it is you did not do right. Opinion Stand is there to know customers reaction ... it is still your job to figure out what you did not do right.

Grow Or Die

Jul

If you’re a small business owner, you might be nodding along as you read these business mantras, agreeing wholeheartedly with each one. After all, it’s what you’ve always been taught. In fact, these popular business axioms routinely are lauded on Wall Street, in business schools and by some of today’s most well-respected business consultants.

Do I believe in this?

Yes ... If your business is growing at the page of the cost of living increase, your business is shrinking. That is what I think. Do you agree?
