Why I Will Not Spend On That Thick Fat Book

If there is a way to get more coverage with less investment for your business, would you consider it?

One common way for business owners to announce their entry or promote their presence in the market place is to get their businesses listed on Yellow Pages.

Those thick fat Yellow Pages can now be downloaded from the net - if you choose to be environmentally friendly.

Alternatively, there is also an online version of Yellow Pages which is more robust and offers much more for the fees paid. The online Yellow Pages for Malaysia can be found at www.YellowPages.com.my.

I did a simple study comparing using Yellow Pages (physical book and online) with Online Local Searches, in particular to Google Local Search and I am sharing my findings with you in this post.

The image above shows a sample page for paid listing the online yellow pages. Listings there get a lot more coverage for a fraction of the cost than if you were to be listed in the physical book. Compare these two to Google Local Places using Reach, Control, Display and Price as criteria and you get the following. Why I Will Not Spend On That Thick Fat Book ...

Sowing Or Harvesting?

Do you start your day with a "To-Do" or what I call a "Must-Do" list.

It usually outlines what needs to get done before you wrap up for the day. It's about planting the seeds of creation and establishing a presence that makes a difference. It's about cultivating and nurturing relationships, learning new skills as well as honing in and expanding on existing expertise.

At the end of the day, I would review what I have done and what is outstanding. There are sometimes "whirl wind kind of productive days" while other days are pretty much "waste of time, waiting for red taps around inefficient systems".

What Happened To The Facebook Migration Tool?

Facebook just released a tool that helps you migrate your profile account to a Facebook Pages. 

You can see this as Facebook “helping” business make that transition by introducing this tool. More likely, Facebook is shifting users towards terms of service compliance, as representing a business or other non-human entity with a profile instead of a Page is prohibited. 

Now, just when I was going to publish this post, I found out that Facebook has disabled the migration tool. More information here
