Media Training…is a must!
Many people fly by the seat of their pants when it comes to interviews. There is no preparation, no coaching, no pre-empting of questions and no understanding.

Just a little bit of marketing does wonders…
Like most companies, Marketing Eye has been slack and we have not practiced what we preach. It’s like mechanics who never fix their own car.
We encourage clients to engage in proactive marketing activities and yet, we rely solely on word of mouth referral, twitter, facebook, blogs and our website.

My relationship with the Easter Bunny
My first memory of the Easter Bunny was when I was about 3 or 4 and my older siblings broke into the cupboard to steal an egg that was in large loose pack.

Managing your own super fund?
I dabble in shares and its interesting how many people out there actually manage their own superannuation funds.
I have had so many hit and misses it’s ridiculous and enough to shy anyone away from buying shares on the Australian Stock Exchange – yet I still persist.

Like many Australian’s, I have a parent who was born overseas. When I travel, my parents are continually spruiking the importance of being proud of my heritage.

Everywhere in the world, there is a restaurant
No matter where you travel in the world, there is always a restaurant that someone recommends.
In Paris, it appears that Australian’s love to got L’Avenue in the 8th District. It is a very chic Parisan restaurant owned by the Coste Group. On Sunday, I was sitting outside, enjoying some beautiful French wine and I met one of the owners. His restaurants are world famous and they are on the ‘must visit’ list for most tourists.
Last night, after attending a networking group where this young woman puts together people from countries around the world to meet and find out more about each other, I realised that this restaurant isn’t just a tourist destination, but the locals love it too.

From Paris With Love
I am sitting at a cafe in one of the most beautiful, romantic cities in the world wondering whether or not I should be working or out exploring. In the end, I decided that its best to do both.

Bingle... I don't feel so sorry for you anymore
I have unavoidably heard information relating to Lara Bingle’s nude photo and the update according to various media includes her selling her story for up to $200,000 and that quite possibly given that this was a 4 year old photograph, that she actually leaked it herself with her new management.

Being an entrepreneur is no holiday
Not the most startling of revelations but something we are all reminded of from time to time. Being an entrepreneur is one of the craziest, yet most rewarding choices an individual can make – and I am so glad I made this decision at 25. Published in Management

A HUGE Bingle
It saddens me that someone would take a photograph of a woman having a shower when clearly by the expression on her face, she did not authorise for it to be taken.

Gatorade Dumps Tiger
The ‘apology’ media conference by Tiger Woods was a disgrace. He was ill-advised and read from a script that was obviously written by a PR.

Set a Sales Target in Stone
Small business owners often have a ‘dream’ figure of what they would like their sales targets to be – but never really set it in stone.
