UPCOMING EVENTS

8-29-2011San Francisco Economic RoundtableDiscussion on Social mediaRegistration closed.
Something every business owner comes to know is that there is never enough time in the day. There's always something else to do and rarely enough resource whether it's people, money or time. And, as the business grows, there appears no end in sight. But, you can help yourself by asking others for advise and by giving advise. The Group is an organization of small business owners that gather monthly to air their most urgent and important issue. For four uninterrupted hours hours you sit in a room with 7 other business people to discuss and get answers on YOUR worries. Each member of your group offers a different perspective than your own, and each one brings with them years of business experience to draw from.

SOCIAL MEDIA STRATEGY

TECHNOLOGY STRATEGY

Q. What is a technology strategy? A. It depends on who you ask. But, one thing is universal... a good technology strategy allows the maximum amount of productivity for the least cost.Q. What should I be thinking about? A. Everything resides and is accessed via the Internet.Q. What does that mean? A. It means that all files, data, transactions, plans, spreadsheets, accounting files.... are created, stored and accessed through a browser like Internet Explorer, Firefox or Google Chrome.Q. How does that help me?A. For starters, you could be using a 1990's class computer with a fast Internet connection with virtually no loss of performance. Think about not having bought the last two or three rounds of desktop and server computers, operating system and productivity applications.Think about never having to upgrade your computer, or replace a hard drive or add memory. Why? Because all of your information is accessible on the Internet whether you are at work, home or at an Internet cafe in France.Then think about having the most updated software ALL the time without having to hire a consultant.It goes on from there.

Business owners tend to congregate around their particular industry associates. And as with most business owners, they are seeking advice about their day to day business issues.This approach is meaningful and effective up to the point that the business comes to a crossroad where outside advice is helpful. Often they will contact their CPA, Attorney or a business consultant. These resources, while very helpful, are expensive and used sparingly.Another approach is to engage with a board of advisors from other experienced business owners.Ken Nangle Consulting LLC provides organization, facilitation and advice to groups of non-competitive small business owners that meet on a monthly basis for 4 hours. The meeting is held on the same day of the month, usually in the morning from 8-noon.If this sounds like a reasonable approach and you'd like to know more click here, enter your information and someone will contact you shortly.
When I talk with business owners about Social Media and Social Media Marketing I hear two questions consistently:1. "How is it done?"2. "Where is the return on investment?"Social Media and Social Media Marketing, in particular, are here to stay. Having a Twitter and/or Facebook account is the 21st century version of a website and email. They are must haves.Following the first two questions comes a third question in one form or another.3. "Who will want to listen to me?" or "What would I have to say?"The last question arises particularly when I talk about blogging.My answer: You don't have to do or say anything. You can inexpensively, outsource this function.But, don't overlook all of the other useful purposes for social media; customer support and service. For now, forget the "social media presence", the reputation management and your social media "influence." Instead focus on what's important - the customer.If you focus on how to make your customers job easier, the rest will follow.If that makes sense to you and you'd like to inquire further click here, enter your information and someone will contact you shortly.

TESTIMONIALS

Ken is perhaps the most innovative business thinker I know. I have been privileged to work with him for years, and have watched him grow and develop as a professional business consultant.Ken is truly a Renaissance man, and brings an impressive tool kit of knowledge, skills and abilities to any organization that is interested not only in surviving, but in thriving.My assessment of the current state on business improvement methodology is good news/bad news. The bad news is that most of us are still firmly rooted in the tired approaches of the latter 20th Century. The good news is that Ken is one of the few professionals around who is superbly positioned to help us see ways to succeed in the 21st Century, into which we've already advanced more than a decade.Source: LinkedIn Profile
"Ken helped us considerably in designing and implementing a long-term, complex core systems application for our company. His command over the subject matter was outstanding and he quickly understood our business needs. He has a great knack of explaining difficult concepts in simple terms and you could always count on Ken to be deliver results on time and within budget. I would be happy to work with Ken again when I have the opportunity."Source: LinkedIn Profile
I have had the opportunity to work with Ken and I recommend him as an personal and professional adviser.Ken has a unique mix of business experience and technical knowledge. He has a practical view of technology and is focused on ensuring it delvers real business value.I often reach out to Ken for his opinion. I highly value his experience and judgment. Ken tells you what you need to know, not what you want to hear. Source: LinkedIn Profile
