Climbing the chart to rapidly become the number 1 paid Sports apps on the Australian App Store and is currently ranking #3rd among paid apps across all categories!   Mobile apps have changed the way we live our lives.   The app is said to have been created due to “dire need for a user-friendly and comprehensive fishing app“. When Vishal Gumber the Founder and CEO of Appsquare, was asked about the idea behind the mobile app, he shared, “At Appsquare, we are always looking for concepts that are new and out of the box. When Brad came to us with the idea for Fish Assist, we loved the extremely fresh and interesting concept.

Why is Fax Broadcasting A Great Alternative To Telesales?

Why is Fax Broadcasting A Great Alternative To Telesales?

The effectiveness of Fax Broadcasting has not declined over the years. Now that there are better technology resources, Fax Broadcasting is easier than ever. With this type of advertising, your business will be able to offer consumers valuable information about your products and services. Fax Broadcasting: At one time, Fax Broadcasting was a time consuming form of marketing. A marketer would have to stand at the fax machine, dial a business number, and wait for the message to be sent before trying the next number. Now that fax advertising is automated through a computer system, this method has increased substantially in value. Now let’s compare that to Telesales. Telesales: Telesales requires a lot of personnel and is very a time consuming marketing method that leads to less than effective results. Employees have a difficult time getting through by phone because many people ignore calls from numbers they do not recognize. Should they happen to get through, they are often met with agitated individuals who quickly end the call before they hear what the company has to offer. Time Versus Money Assuming a telesales worker can work 7 hours a day, 5 days a week, that equates to only 2100 minutes of work time. If the worker is exceptional and makes on average one call every 5 minutes, then that’s only 420 calls a day. Even then, only a small percentage of these will hit their mark. The typical cost would be a minimum of $15 an hour, plus around 20c for the cost of the phone call, which over the cost of a month comes to a whopping $4347 a month (based on 23 working days) Over the same duration, you could be reaching 40,000 to 50,000 people by fax and have your staff only working on responding to qualified leads. Advantages Of Fax Broadcasting: Fax Broadcasting is much more effective than telesales, for a number of reasons: Time: Using the assistance of a fax machine to spread your business advertisements is far less time consuming than telesales. Information can be quickly and easily spread to hundreds, thousands or even millions of businesses via fax. Telesales requires an employee to talk directly to a potential consumer one at a time. Staff: Mass Fax Broadcasting can be achieved by one individual versus the brute force method that is required in telesales. Your company can outsource Fax Broadcasting to a business...

Five Common Credit Card Receipt Printer Problems and Their Solutions

Five Common Credit Card Receipt Printer Problems and Their Solutions

The world is living on credit cards and this is evidenced by the fact that every online store you visit today has an option for paying via credit card. It has been the way of surviving for many young and old Americans. It is all over, the usefulness of these cards cannot be overemphasized. It is the same popularity that has extended well into the domain of credit card receipt printers. These printers come either as standalone units or built in with the credit card terminal. Whatever the arrangement, their functionality does not change and their usefulness keeps on increasing by the day. These printers also come either as dot matrix printers or thermal printers. A thermal credit card receipt printer is slightly more expensive compared to a dot matrix but when it comes to printing speed, they are incomparable; the thermal printer does 10 to 15 lines each second while the dot matrix can only achieve 4 lines per second. It does not matter the kind of credit card printer that you install; whether thermal or dot matrix. All types of printers will develop problems at one point or the other in their useful life span. Below is an analysis of the most common problems and includes ways in which they may be fixed.   Changing Of Papers When using traditional credit card receipt printers, you may from time to time experience problems while changing papers. This can be frustrating not only to you but also to your clients. It can lead to time wastage and it will more than likely lead to an avalanche of customer complaints. When changing papers, it may indicate that the respective tray is empty while it has papers or it may just fail to register the new roll. This problem results in time wastage and it can easily lower your productivity as a business. To avoid this kind of paper change problems, you can invest in credit card receipt printers which have a drop-in paper loading functionality. This will make the paper loading process simple and cut off your overall customer complaints by nearly half.   Failed Receipt Printer Cutting Facility This is also a common problem that affects most printers. The cutting apparatus in the printer is the one that is responsible for chopping off a receipt at the end of a transaction. This can also be another inconvenience for your...

How To Dress For Success In Business

The way we present ourselves to the world around us directly affects the things that come bumbling into our lives, including things like money, good jobs, promotions etc. Like attracts like, remember? This whole thing is magnified when it comes to personal success in relationships as well as the professional world. Above the Neck This goes for both the guys and the girls: put some effort into it! There’s no reason to shoot for a hardcore Hollywoodesque look, but you need to put forth an effort. Trim those bushy eyebrows, wax that upper lip, shave, and apply your makeup with a delicate stroke. Obviously it’s a fine line between overdone and just right, but as long as you aren’t trying to be something you’re not, then it’s typically going to go over well. Accessories Don’t shoot for bling because it’s downright cliché and not too many people can pull it off. Again, think conservative with some personality. Necklace, earrings, sunglasses, and all those other nifty things we adorn our heads with can be effective when applied with some humility and the genuine desire to express ourselves professionally. From Neck to Waist Ok, so we live in a fast-paced world where trends come and go quicker than your paychecks. But, if you step back a little bit you’ll see that style these days is actually rather forgiving relative to what’s laid siege to humanity in the past. Think conservative with personality. Take some church-wear, dress it down a little bit and then add something that screams “this is my style.” It’s not as much about making a statement as it is about standing out. The traditional pre-collapse standard has gotten a bad rap, and no one wants to disappear in a lake of trendy (consumer-based) branding, dry monotonous looking dresses/skirts, or suits. Accessories This is pretty much summed up by two things for men, a belt and some cuff links. Belts are important, and cuff links will never ever stop looking sharp. For ladies it can be the same thing, but in reality there’s far more leeway for expression here. Keep it conservative and mature, but make sure there’s a little you in there. Waist to Ankles Dress for the occasion, remember? And, try not to clash. It’s about blending extremely like Picasso would if he went with clothing design rather than painting as his forte. Guys, what’s wrong with...

6 Tips For Better Time Management At Work

  Do you feel constantly rushed? Are you always running to the bus stop? Are your reports always late? Do colleagues shake their heads in despair when you clatter into the office 20 minutes late every day? If so, then you’re probably not as organised as you could be. Read on to find out how to manage your time better and stay ahead of the game. Prioritise Faced with an overwhelming amount of work can be paralysing. Not knowing where to start is the biggest problem, and so we end up trying to three or four things at the same time. Even if you’re an expert multi-tasker then this normally doesn’t work out very well. So before you start, take five minutes to write a list of all you need to do, and then prioritise it into Urgent and Non Urgent. The result? Important jobs get done first. Delegate Even better than prioritising is delegation. Passing the buck onto someone else is a tried and trusted method for reducing the workload – and you won’t even have to take the blame if anything goes wrong. Get to Work Earlier or Leave Later This isn’t really a time management technique, but it will certainly help you to get more done. Even an hour a day can make a world of difference. Hopefully, you won’t have any other distractions either, as, like homework club, anyone who is there with you will be there to work too. Handling Information As fast as we process information, even more seems to arrive. Painting the Forth Bridge never seemed so attractive. So looking at ways to reduce the time spent managing information is vital. For example, set a specified time for dealing with emails, make the most of information software and idea management software, properly file your desktop documents and audit them once a month, and keep a tidy desk. Remember that vast amounts of time are squandered through disorganisation, so always be as organised as you possibly can be. Get Rid of Distractions It might be hard to get rid of your more attractive and therefore distracting colleagues, but you can still do a lot to help yourself keep focus on work. Make a strict rule not to do anything non-work related until you have finished a task, and resist the mighty temptation of logging into Facebook or Twitter. (Unless you’re in marketing, in...
