Doing Business in 2012 is SO totally different! Depending upon which Generation one falls into shoppers have progressed from the mom and pop corner stores > to the shopping malls > to the Big Box extravaganza and finally ending up at > Call Centers.
In the process, the Human Touch has been lost.
As a result, consumers as never before are desperate for a Relationship with those they do Business with. *Traditional Sales methods are No longer Effective*.
Of course, the challenge is understanding this and taking time to Listen and Learn.
For the loyal readers of Today’s Innovative Woman ,You are all familiar with Publisher, Cathy Alessandra; the Brain Power, Thought Leader, Architect and general “Go To Gal” on Business!
