Atricle Dump - As Walgreens Goes, So Goes the Country
Even when you have planned your list, it may still be difficult to determine which names are the best ones to contact for the day. I like to look at the last time I contacted them and if it is longer than 60 days, the name gets closer to the top of my list. Once I have looked at all of the lists, I will have sections
Do you ever stand in awe of those people who seem to know everybody and everything? I know I do! Regardless of what you're looking for, these people have their finger on the pulse of the 'Net and know where to find it. Their network of resources and people is incredible! Yours can be, too. It's actually very simple t
If you are even sleepily observant you have seen digital signs at the curb, under the big Walgreens logo. BIG Deal, you say. They ARE a big deal because they are not your father's digital signs with letters made of light bulbs that are turned on and off to make a scrolling pitch for headache remedies at half price. These boards are digital. Sort of a scaled down version of the jumbotron giant TVs in all the big stadiums.
No longer is Walgreens limited to scrolling text; the nifty new digital signs can display product logos and many fonts of text. They can roll, ripple, fade and twist.
CVS has them, too. And other companies are looking hard at cost vs return. The Walgreens and CVS signs are not huge, like a billboard, so they usually feature one special at a time.
Take it one step further and you can see some impressive behind-the-scenes deals going on about how many times Walgreens will show the tissue box each day and what's in it for them. Yup, they can get paid for pushing products on the digital sign. The signs are now electronic billboards and can generate cash for the operator. Paid advertising one step up.
Inside the store is something else, too. Many Walgreens have Plasma LCD displays, not unlike the new HD TVs on sale in the big box store, hooked up to play continues advertisements about items and specials in the store. Wal-Mart has been doing this for years with 800 pound television sets hanging from the ceiling blasting thinly veiled content and pushing product. Flat panel TV technology is revolutionizing the way in-store sinage is used. On the horizon will be digital prices on the shelf in front of the product, instead of the paper card that is squeezed to fit in the slots. The new digital price displays, same size, will be able to change pric
Consider your life as a business enterprise. Overshadowing everything else is a business goal and a strategy to reach that goal. Also there is a business philosophy, the red thread that gives meaning of existence to the enterprise. Now consider your life. You need one or several goals, immaterial and ma

Quite often the business you do can be quite specialized. I find that sometimes it is too specialized and that I need to bring in another expert for portions of a project. As I have a Power Team in place, it is fairly easy for me to set up the initial client interview with a Power Team member. The first meeting is to
