2:14 pm | Bill Baldwin | Be the first to comment

Welcome to the Northeast Entrepreneur's Small Businesses Blog.

It is Compelling Marketing Communications intention to create a forum where entrepreneurs in the northeast section of the USA will have some fun, share helpful information, and create a dialogue contributing to greater success for all of us.

Let’s start with introductions. I am Bill Baldwin – your moderator – and owner of Compelling Marketing Communications, LLC. Although I own the company, my title is Client Satisfaction Manager because it reflects my primary purpose, which is to make certain Compelling Marketing Communications’ clients are more than merely satisfied with the results of our services, we want them thrilled.

Compelling Marketing Communications provides marketing services to small and mid size businesses. Our specialties include website design, email marketing, website promotion, online advertising, and search engine optimization. We also provide other marketing services geared to compel people to visit our client’s websites.

Compelling Marketing Communications, previously known as Innovative Web Services, continues to serve small businesses since 1999. Although growing in both number of clients and annual revenue, we never lose focus on customer service. That’s why I am Compelling Marketing Communications’ Client Satisfaction Manager.

I encourage you to share your ideas and post thoughts of interest to the community at large. Here's a list of questions to jump start our conversations.

• What are some of your biggest challenges and fears?
  
  • What are your plans to deal with those challenges?
• Do you feel you are prepared to deal with the speed of business today?
• How does technology, including the Internet, impact your business?
• Who is your ideal client and why?
• What’s the smartest thing you’ve ever done?
• What’s the biggest mistake you ever made?

I encourage you to consider these questions, share your thoughts and suggest other questions for our mutual consideration.

I look forward to having a lot of fun, sharing useful information, learning from you and developing some great relationships.
