Whatever you do, don’t make the mistake of cutting advertising from your budget during a Global Financial Crisis!!!
This may seem like it is saving you money but will cost you more in the long run or may take your business from Slow Sales to NO Sales!
Research suggests that businesses that advertise and drive their brand through a GFC reap the rewards long after the hard times are over.

How easy is it to forget to back up important business or personal files, photos and data?
Why not use an online solution with Mozy an automatic backup service storing your important data on enterprise-grade servers where it can be downloaded from anywhere in the world should the original file be lost or damaged?
Giving you complete piece of mind if your computer or server crashes!
About Mozy
Founded in 2005, Mozy is the world’s most trusted online backup service for consumers and businesses with more than 3 million customers and 70,000 business customers backing up 70 petabytes of information to multiple data centers around the globe.
Mozy is also used by Telstra for their client T-Suite cloud services.
Mozy believes:
You shouldn’t have to think about backup, it should be set up once, and then work automatically.
Your backup files should be encrypted and stored in a secure, remote location that’s only accessible to you – from anywhere.
Your backup system should be smart enough to only back up data that’s not already been backed up, only back up parts of a file that have changed, and be able to back up open and locked files.

In return I have sponsored $50 for Steve to also participate in this FUN charity event!
Nothing like a bit of exercise first thing on a Sunday morning to help a great cause!
More Sponsors welcome! Or register and participate yourself!
Tour de Bay Charity Bike Ride, more info and forms here!
Event Day: We had some amazing weather today for the event, especially after last nights storms, with almost 200 people participating raising a phenomenal $20,000. Steve had alittle stack at the half way mark but was not injured too seriously. I think I’ll do the 64km loop next year!
A huge thank you to the event organisers and volunteers!
The registration was smooth, the course was extremely well signed and the brekkie was delicious!

I first designed Rob Garland from Jobsmarts website back in 2007, so four years on he was definitely ready for a revamp!
We modernized his template, put some more focus on his ‘I ♥ Hervey Bay’ tshirts and campaign, plus added facebook to connect with clients and a blog for his latest news which is fantastic for SEO (search engine optimisation).
Rob also has an admin panel so he or his staff can now log in any time and update his pages and latest news making sure his website is always current.
Check it out here!!
