How to deal with bad reviews about your business Aug 2nd
Every once in a while we will receive a bad review online for a genuine mistake we may have made. Say our servers were down that day and a potential client was trying to get in touch to purchase a large amount of products, but they obviously couldn’t because our servers were down. To us that was out of our control, but to them we ignored all of their efforts to get in touch and lost out on a great client.
People mostly leave reviews when they are angry about something, so they aren’t always the most understanding methods of communication between people. Knowing how to handle the situation can be a really useful tool and you can actually benefit from this negative comment rather than let it badly affect the reputation of your business.

When does your business need new premises? Aug 1st
You might not realise it, but your business could probably benefit from a new work environment. Don’t believe us? Here are the tell tale signs you should look out for.
You’re running out of room
The simplest reason for wanting to move offices is that it no longer comfortably houses your business. As your business becomes more successful, more and more clients will visit your office. You might also face problems housing the clients and customers in the waiting room. Similarly, you’ll inevitably hire new team members, and each of them will need their own workspace and computer monitor. If you feel that your office is stopping you from hiring new people because you’re worried about fitting everyone in, it might be time to think about moving to a new place. That way, you can assign a larger hall for the waiting room equipped with digital displays (find out more about them here) and music systems that can keep the customers occupied. You can also start hiring new people as now you can house more people in the new office. Continue reading “When does your business need new premises?”

The latest high street trend isn’t what’s on the shelves Jul 30th
With online shopping as the norm for the modern-day shopper, the high streets initially saw less footfall. But in 2015, weekly shopper numbers increased by 40% for physical store, and is set to increase by 44% in 2018. The return of the high street shopper can be attributed to the social aspect of shopping, as many scout the stores before ordering online.
But how can retailers embrace this? QUIZ Clothing, who offer a range of going out dresses both online and offline, explore the rise of in-store technology in enhancing the customer experience on the high street. Continue reading “The latest high street trend isn’t what’s on the shelves”

Making the Right Decisions for Your Business Jul 28th
Running a business means making decisions every day. It’s like being the general of an army – people will bring you questions big and small, not all of them problems, sometimes perfectly innocuous events require a senior decision maker to choose between options, and it’s down to you to use your superior understanding of your business and your market to make the right decisions for your business. A good decision is one that uses the minimum resources to create the maximum impact, while, if possible, emphasising your brand’s values by offering a good experience for the customer or being demonstrably environmentally friendly, for example.
