Here is the timeless question, how can I keep employee moral up in my company. The success of every business is determined not only by its leadership, but also the attitude and “heart health” of the company. Every where you go there is a culture or an atmosphere that makes “that place” what it is. The same principal applies to business, and we have worked very strategically at Custom Impressions, Inc to create a right atomsphere for growth and sucess.
As a business to business corporation we are partners with many local and national companies. Leadership talks often gravitate toward an employee that is causing problems, or the one that is doing so well they are advancing the company. As a business leader I encourage the approach of building healthy employee employer interactions through incentives and rewards. Often times a potential leadership type personality slips into mediocrity not because they are lazy, but because they lack the right kind of atmosphere they need to help them reach their peak.
I suggest to every business owner using clear incentives and goals that keep their employees striving towards the next level. As soon as a person of any ability hits a Plato in their growth or pay scale, stagnation is certain to set in.

Set up a meeting with your employee and let them know clearly what they need to do to go to the next level. Give them a date for a review and put the responsibility back on their shoulders to produce and perform. If they have nothing to aim for they will miss it every time.

Facebook has released a new recommendation bar! Confused, I was at first as well due to the fact that they already have a recommendation plug in for websites and blogs. They also have a recommendation feature built directly into your timeline so friends and customers can give you a two thumbs up.
But wait….the new recommendation bar has features the old plug in does not have. The new recommendation plug in allows readers to like the content, but also to share it with their friends. This multi-functionality was not active in the older plug in. This is great for creating a viral piece of marketing content. This is also great for seo purposes (search engine optimization).
According to many leading search engine marketing expert’s social media now plays a huge factor in search ranking. In fact I have heard many state that social media now factors for between 40-60% of search results. This is a stark contrast to the pre-panda update where social media interaction was estimated to make up approximately 10% of search ranking. Every like, share and recommendation has become much more important to your marketing strategy.
Here is Facebook’s brief description of the new recommendation bar:
The Recommendations Bar allows users to like content, get recommendations, and share what they’re reading with their friends.
The Recommendations Bar is always docked to the lower right (or left) of the screen. When the page loads the Recommendations bar will be collapsed and the user will have the option to ‘like’ your page.
As the user nears the end of your page, the plugin will expand. The expanded view will show the user a social recommendation of the next article to read on your site.
You must include open graph markup on your articles so Facebook knows how to display them on the site. If you do not include this, the plugin will show an error message instead of a recommendation.
Here is a link to the page where you can get the new recommendation plug in for your website.

Its no secret that a business cannot survive if its not visible to the community its serving. Many great ideas and business dreams have died prematurely do to the lack of public awareness. If Custom Impressions, Inc. has anything to due with it, this will not happen to you! I have personally experienced the vast difference in public response to a marketing effort based on poor or proper business branding. I would like to share my story and hope it will affirm the importance of properly branding your business and marketing efforts. I have learned the hard way that scrimping the budget for proper logo representation can cost you more than you might spend on a few good banners and some promotional advertising. Check out the following responses I received from an employer and the business community based on branding.
I recently accompanied a roofing contractor called Chase Construction NW Inc. to two regional business fairs. The first event was held in Orting, Washington, called the Foothills Dash. Each vendor was to come with a booth to represent their company. Chase NW Roofing was accompanied by a roofing manufacturer called GAF. The roofing contractor had no banners, branded table cloths, promotional advertisement, or anything that featured their company. The investment to create a community presence was a loss. After spending 8 hours at the event they left with only a handful of people knowing who they were. If they would have been properly branded their visual presence itself would have been sowing important seeds of awareness into the community. The owner of Chase NW Roofing told his employees who were responsible for the event they received an F for the day, due to the poor company representation, lack of branding and promotional marketing.
The employees of this company learned from their woes and invested into branded banners, promotional items and other marketing to represent their brand. A few months later they joined another community fair that hosted vendor booths. Equipped with their new banners and company apparel they set up their command post ready for the day. The overseer of the event had placed them in the very back of the event, a place where not much traffic passed through. The overseer upon seeing their booth told them they had the best looking booth in the event and moved them into a prime position where every attendee would see them coming in the gate and leaving. Not only did the proper branding result in a strategic shift and favor, but it also generated much welcomed support throughout the day. Many knew the companies superman logo printed on the banner. While the sales team educated interested potential customers, passer byes and former customers would come up and affirm the quality of work. The branding generated community support and produced a powerful testimony. Another business said “We know you, you must be a huge company, we see you guys everywhere”. Chase Roofing is a medium size contractor, but proper branding has carried its reputation far and wide.
Strategic marketing and business branding can create a powerful community presence and awareness. Couple this with a strong social media campaign and you will be able to effectively establish your brand as an authority in your industry.
