What’s your marketing mindset?

by Chemory Gunko What's your marketing mindset (Microsoft Word) Any marketing campaign, at it’s essence, is all about shouting your name out to the world, in an effort to get masses of exposure and attract the attention of people out there who are looking for you and your amazing products and services. It all begins though, with the way you see your business and the value you believe what you offer has to bring. So, just how do you think about your products and services, and what are the words, thoughts and ideas that you use when describing your offering to yourself?

Why SEO is not the be-all and end-all of everything

by Chemory Gunko Why SEO is not the be-all and end-all of everything (Microsoft Word) The buzzword on everyone’s lips – for a while already – has been SEO.

But how realistic is this really? 1. Is your product something that people will search for? I can’t tell you how often I’ve seen this one – and really wanted to turn around and say, okay well when did you last go on to the Internet searching for air freshener or toilet rolls?

Students need vocational education

By Thandisizwe Mgudlwa Vocational education and training is clearly the answer for most students who can't enter the university system. That is why experts have in the past urged students to consider private colleges and Further Education and Training (FET) institutions as a viable option for gaining a tertiary education. Among them are quality institutions offering courses that address the economic needs of our country. Many colleges have a higher ratio of graduates placed directly into related employment. Sharene Menteath, Head of Academics at CTI Education Group comments: "CTI Information Systems graduates are employed at the same level as university graduates, but require only one year of study and are likely to have earned an additional R100 000 before their universi...
