I travelled this week to Karlsruhe, Germany. After two days of meetings we realized we were a hop skip and a jump from my ancestral homelands in Alsace. A quick rental car visit and we were on our way to Soultz-les-Bains in Alsace. Of course the problem with Soultz is that it is so small that is not actually on the huge Michelin map. So we stopped at the next village over, Molsheim, to enjoy dinner at Au Cerf. Choucroute Garnie - makes my DNA hum.

We all need Google AdWords accounts. We all have Google AdWords accounts. We all want to do better with our Google Adwords  accounts. We all wonder what our competitors are doing with their Google AdWords accounts.

Wonder no more. Check out Spyfu. If you search on your competitor’s domain you find out what their campaigns are. For grins I did a search on Victoria’s Secret. See the results below.

Reading West With The Night by Beryl Markham, I came across this great quote:

“If a man has any greatness in him, it comes to light, not in one flamboyant hour, but in the ledger of his daily work.”

I quote this hoping that PositiveWare can be part of your greatness.

PositiveWare talent scouts are seeking customers to upload testimonials to YouTube.com.  It is our goal to find users who are willing to talk about the impact PositiveWare has on their business.

In doing so, not only will you enjoy your 15 clicks of fame, you will also be greatly rewarded.  PositiveWare will ship a very special treat to you, fresh from one of the best bakeries in New York, Grandaisy Bakery.

In short:
1, Record yourself saying something nice about PositiveWare
2. Upload to YouTube (or we’ll do it for you)
3. Eat delicious cake (see Torta de Capas.)

The dismantling of the traditional newspaper model continues. Today the Denver Post announced that the Business section would now be part of the local coverage section Denver and the West. Apparently advertising support had dropped to where the section no longer made sense on a stand alone basis. Ironically the news was reported first in the Denver Business Journal, which seems to be doing fine with its hyper-local coverage.
