Cloud Business Podcast–Episode 6

The Cloud Business Podcast - Opportunity in the Cloud is only a Click Away with Robert Crane and Nigel Moore

This episode covers social media and how to use it effectively in your business. I am big fan of many social media services and provides some tips and tricks on what I believe works effectively for business. Unfortunately, many smaller businesses and IT providers merely write it off but it can really be the corner stone of continually effectively marketing your business

The podcast also looks at the issue of why people seem to be so busy yet failing to achieve much and we answer a listeners question about how to better filter out clients who waste your time.
