So, anytime a new service pops up, I jump on to experiment. Enter Fiverr, where you can find gigs/help starting at $5. Being that I’m looking to create a multifunction widget for my blog, I saw it as an opportunity to go to Fiverr and find someone who could do what I need for $5.
On Fiverr, I saw a dude who “sells himself” as a WordPress Guru. So, I thought he should know. Turns out he hasn’t even heard about https://websitehosting.com. But, if he’s a WordPress Guru, then he should know people who can do this specific job that I’m asking for. Right?
The best solution is to hire a team of knowledgeable professionals WordPress design services whose expertise in the platform allows them to adapt and modify your WordPress site to your individual design and technology needs quickly and efficiently.

Here’s a look back, in no particular order, at the top 80 articles I wrote about innovation:…
Technology is an enabler. What is its hidden power when it comes to crafting a memorable customer experience?
Today more than ever, because of the rise of mass communication and customization, having a unique customer experience is a differentiator. Here’s how!
I recently purchased a new laptop directly from HP. Today, the process of buying online is commonplace. We all know the process: you buy, you get a receipt in your email, you then get a follow up receipt with the estimated time and a tracking code. With tracking code in hand, you get to see where your new toy is.
Knowing where your toy is and estimated time of delivery creates a sense of security, but also a sense of anxiety. And, if taken advantage of, a huge opportunity to “surprise and delight” to the provider. Let me explain:…
I believe that business leaders should treat customer experience is an imperative. Yet, there are still some parts of the business world where “customer experience” is a new word.
With that said, I jumped on a chat with Kerry Bodine, co-author of Outside-In. A new book about why organizations should focus on customer experience, and how.
One of the challenges in understand what customer experience means, is understanding that there is a HUGE difference between customer service and customer experience. Most think that customer service is customer experience.…

The hot topic these days is innovation, whether I’m in conversation with relative newcomers or long-tenured companies trying to reinvent themselves. Everything is moving so quickly in markets and inside businesses today. This forces the obvious question of ‘How best to get and stay ahead?’ Innovation invariably becomes the answer – but what kind?

I’m currently in Mexico meeting with executives from a few large companies, including the nations largest telecommunications company, to talk about social media technologies and what this means for them. Let me say this, it’s incredible how separated from the current reality these companies are.
While some companies in the U.S. are already taking advantage of social media for both external and internal activities (think social business), in the Mexico it isn’t so. For example. I asked a female executive from this telecommunications company if she knew if her company had a Twitter account. She said no.
They do.
But what I really wanted to know is if she knew that her Twitter account gets dissed the most by customers. In other words: there is a lot of hate towards your company on Twitter.
I told her she should check it out because it would be eye-opening. She did and immediately directed me to another female executive who had more ‘decision power’. I asked her the same thing. Same response. I told her to open up her browser, go to www.trendsmap.com, put in her company name in the search box and click search to see the magic.
