One of Australia’s leading market traders, Richard Lie, will be hosting an introductory seminar explaining the ‘hows’ and ‘whys’ of his successful trading philosophy.

It’s sad but true. Some people, no matter what good intentions they have, will never be successful.

In a rush – too much work to do!

A very wise man once said to me;

Nadia Kerr’s personalised gifts business, DigiGifts, explains what marketing avenues worked and what did not in her road to success. Log onto www.DigiGifts.com.au and find out about what it takes to be a leader in the personal gifts industry.

How do they do it? It’s a question that all entrepreneurs ask themselves at one stage or another. We see companies all the time that are in our space and they have grown phenonomenally over a short period of time. Sometimes they then fall flat and other times, they keep going. The latter is harder to achieve.

If you read my blogs you may remember that I have had numerous problems with a faulty Blackberry that Optus sold me almost 2 years ago.

I am starting a website with a great friend of mine :  www.womenswealthcreator.com

What an inspirational young girl! Her family and friends should be very proud of her achievement of sailing around the world unassisted.

Yesterday I met with the delightful owners of Sisko Chocolate. They have this incredibly cute store in Hawthorn that is accompanied by a chocolate making facility that sculptures chocolate for special occasions – weddings, corporate gifts, fathers day, mothers day – you name it.

Whilst many Australian’s think chocolate is a Cadbury bar, those in the know know that it is so far from the case – it is ridiculous. Chocolate is a real art and here is a talented duo, in Melbourne, that are making a big impact.

Wow! Did this week really happen? Is this what happens when all of a sudden, your brand kicks in and everyone knows who you are? Is this all a dream or is Marketing Eye really firing?

As I said, it’s been a big week at Marketing Eye! Marketing Eye Brisbane has developed this new website for telecommunications gun, Donna Gresham. DMG Communications now have a new brand, new identity and new website.

Just had a meeting with a client who does party plan and after discussions about the issues facing families today particularly in the current economic environment, we ascertained that using a system called www.easyfee.net.au would advantageous to the company.

What do you think of DMG Communications new business cards? We are interested in what you think of how their new brand has now been translated into a communicative piece of collateral in the form of a business card.

A client of Marketing Eye last week asked for us to design a logo around their wife’s picture of a pelican.

Last night I attended the launch of Essjai’s new range of jewellery. Over 100 people attended an exclusive launch in Malvern, Victoria, which included a fashion parade and well-known journalist, Martine Griffiths from Channell 10 giving a keynote speech about her travels as a journalist. 

Women are embracing the ‘party plan’ jewellery industry, whereby they can view stunning pieces in the comforts of a home with friends over a cup of coffee or a glass of champagne.

Today I received the first call of the year from a client wanting to get organised with gifts for Christmas for key clients. 

You may think that he has allocated too much time to organise, but for many companies, the last minute rush means that not enough thought has gone into it and the gift really does not depict the type of relationship that exists with client and supplier.

Last week, I spent two days visiting companies in Brisbane.
