By Betsy Kent | Apr 15, 2010

She runs two flourishing photography-related companies, Fifth Avenue Digital and The Album Boutique, yet somehow, she also found time to plan,…

Your Brand is what Your Customers Say It Is

By Betsy Kent | Nov 22, 2009

More Insights from The Gravity Summit in NYC “The key to WOM (word-of-mouth marketing) is NOT to make the brand look good – it’s making someone look good to their social network while they are talking about your brand.” explained Mike Lundgren from VML at last week’s Gravity Summit in New York. “Consumers trust other…

Is Twitter Here to Stay?

By Betsy Kent | Nov 17, 2009

Insights from The Gravity Summit in NYC I hear this all the time: “If Twitter doesn’t start making money soon, it won’t be around for very long.” Yes, Twitter is a great tool. I spend hours upon hours using it for my own company and for clients. But I don’t really care if Twitter is here to…

By Betsy Kent | Nov 8, 2009

Today Chris Brogan, one of my favorite people, posted a short video called “Small Talk is Big.” It’s about the rewards that you get from showing interest in the people you meet every day. I totally agree with him. I’ve met Chris and he’s a natural. His genuine interest in people shows through in everything…

How Your Customers can be your Best Salespeople

By Betsy Kent | Oct 19, 2009

All the marketing data we have points to the reality that most people buy what their friends or acquaintances recommend.

The Sales Process begins at “Hello”

By Betsy Kent | Oct 6, 2009

Who answers the phone when someone calls your business? Do you have an automated attendant or do you have a “live” person handing calls?
