December 15, 2012 by Louisa Chan Leave a Comment

A Quick 1-Question Survey 

So we are coming to the end of 2012. Maybe you had a good year. Maybe you had hoped for something more. 

In any case, you want 2013 to be significantly different:
– You want a break through.
– And you want to accelerate your business growth.


We did a survey to understand your biggest challenge as a Small Business Owner some time back. Since then we have delivered tutorials and text guides on using Facebook, LinkedIn as well as setting up web presence and using Pinterest.  

It’s time to check in with you again. If you have a minute to answer the following question, I’d like to hear from you your preferred way for growing your business. 

Thanks for letting me know so I can see what are some ways you can get the most out of 2013. Knowing this enables me to continue to produce relevant resources, e-guides, tutorials and training for you.

If you would like us to share our findings with you, just click on this link and let us know where to send these to.

Why Having Your Own Web Address Is So Very Important

December 12, 2012 by Louisa Chan Leave a Comment


Coaches, Trainers, Teachers: Why Having Your Own
Web Address Is Very Important

Would you like your coaching / training practice be found by 1.67 billion people looking for your service everyday on Google? 
We have not included searches done using Yahoo and Bing …
An well planned online presence gets you new clients even if you run an offline business.
But if you host your website on a free platform like Blogsport, WordPress or on industry sites, it is unlikely that you’ll show up on these searches.
You will also not have control over your content and you will also lose out on branding among other things. We’ll look at those in the video below.
Ready And Willing Customers
People who searches online are more likely to seek out your local studio. Are you catching these visitors?

Why Having Your Own Web Address Is Important
And How To Get It:

While we don’t have winter in Kuala Lumpur, I can still remember the thick white snow in Montreal. Fluffy and nice – but they soon turned icy slippery!
