Long overdue

I can't believe we are in late August already, I don't like to see the summer slipping away and I cling on to it for as long as I can, usually early Oct is when I finally give in to Autumn. I've had a bit of a mini re-brand, I've had a few versions of the Quack logo over the past 9 years and I think this is my favourite so far. I'm sure it will remain like this for some time now. I probably wouldn't recommend to clients that they changed their logo 3 times in 9 years unless...

Business in April

I think I'm over yesterday, snow, sun, rain, wind, snow, sun... Beautiful walk this morning in the chilly sunshine, always a good start to the day. My mind is full of projects, things at home, my father-in-laws impending funeral and all the dancing and singing my daughter does, alongside checking on my elderly parents, it's their chiropodist appointments this afternoon, and I thought life with toddlers in tow was tricky, that was nothing to this time of my life. But I must say I feel the best I have probably felt in about 20 years, mentally and physically, although I'm only...

Blanket

... over my knee, typing this. Just back from a rather long doctors apt with my 83 year old mum, answering emails as I sat in the car, thank goodness I work for myself at times like this. We've had a new smart meter fixed at home since I've been back, keeping Buster our dog out the way was fun, but all he wanted to do was to sniff the engineer. 3 websites on the go, one deadline for 14 days the other early in the new year and the third which was 1st Dec I'm waiting to hear on,...

Oh my goodness Nov is nearly here

Sat at my desk (just for a change) with the patio doors open, yes it's Autumn but it is such a mild day. Slightly spooked by the Covid numbers and all the stats about, ventilation and numbers of people etc. But I guess we all are. Keeping as safe as we can, so I guess I just need to plough on. Back to Quack and it's been a busy and interesting few weeks. Never a dull moment. My largest client has merged or is merging with another firm, Schroders no less. So my contract has come to an end along with...

Time, being helpful, offering advice - but don't be a fool

I didn't need to read loads of books by famous people in business to be told how to treat people, I've always done the odd job either for free or in return for something else or trade or even just because I knew the person needed my help and if they didn't get that help they couldn't move on and seize an opportunity. Somethings are also down to time, at that time that person might really need you and in months or years to come, they may return the favour. To a point! none of us want to be used or...
