Hello!
So it's been a busy week so far, with Black Friday/Cyber Monday coming up right after turkey day for our American neighbours. I'm not sure you take part in the tech holiday sale that's supposed to be these next 4 days, but now seems to run the whole month of November. Anyway, if you're looking for tools to help with your marketing or business function, check out the sale items in the What's the Tech section.
On Monday we had a successful GSDD (Get Stuff Done Day) event where 10 busy people focused on critical tasks that needed attention for many different reasons. The majority of attendees spent time planning their holiday social media/marketing activities or planning for the upcoming year. Everyone came away with satisfying outcomes. The next GSDD event will be in early January.
But now, let's get on with this issue about Holidays and sales!
Looking forward
