This month I have been creating a marketing plan for Red Kite Services. As usual, I was doing a lot of scribbling and taking loads of time doing it. Then I talked to Rebecca Craven at RC Marketing and she shared her advice on how to create a marketing plan in an hour. It was so…

Business Book Reviews
Book Review: Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell
The review on the cover of this page told me to expect a book that was ‘inspiring, revelatory.’ So, I opened the book for the May Business BookCLUB with anticipation. Did it live up to this promise? In my opinion, only partly. It was revelatory, but as for inspiring I found it quite the opposite.…

This was the April book for the York Business BookClub and was met with enthusiasm right around the table. What was most interesting is how in an…
