The Internet Does It All!

Hello...

I've been talking about change and the internet lately. The internet truly is providing ways of doing all sorts of activities in a flexible manner. There are just lots of activities that can be done now via the "air" .. as I call the internet. (Ground being the traditional way of doing things.)

Last night I was visiting with a friend who's partner is representing a company that allows you to send out cards via the internet. Stop and think about it ... how many opportunities do you have a day or week to send out a card ( business and personal) that could make a difference to someone or even yourself if the card is implemented for business! What often stops us is the inconvenience of physically getting to a store to purchase the card, writing it out ( in my case slowing down to make sure my handwriting can be read) finding that stamp and address and then getting it into the mail!!!

Now, I agree that some of the inconvenience listed above is better than resorting to email communications for our greetings, thank you's and such. Although perfectly acceptable in many an instance ... there are times when it just won't "get you there."

The company we discussed last night is the best of all worlds. You choose your card, type in your message, have your addresses uploaded and convenient to access ... all online. The company then sends out a "real" card via postal email for you! How cool is that.

Yes, the internet has ways of solving lots of our "to do's" in efficient and flexible ways. Ways that allow us to incorporate "change" and see the opportunities ... not be lost in the blur of the change.

Who has used anything like what I am talking about? Do you like it?? Tell us more!!

Keep your business garden growing ...
