Surviving Meltdown?
By Durk Dugan
(AN) At a time when all we hear about is yet another giant financial institution’s meltdown, a good question is who is surviving and actually doing well in this climate.
Here are some examples sent in to me from various sources.
- • A California based web design and internet marketing company specializing in quality products for attorneys is reporting sales are booming.
• A business consulting company reports they have grown more in the last two months than they did in the previous two years.
• Tutoring businesses in both Texas and California are reporting sales are thriving.
• Local community colleges in many areas are reporting that enrollment and attendance are up.
• Dating and relationship services – DatingToRelating.com reports that it has grown from 600,000 visitors a month to over 1,000,000 visitors a month in the last six months.
What can a company do to grow despite the economic recession?
“Automate and increase the efficiency of your sales force.” says Charlene Kalk of Artfield Investments, a consulting investment banking firm. Though the investment banking community has been hit hard by the recession, Artfield Investments reports they have recently quadrupled their new leads in.
“We are using a combination of automated lead gathering and customer relations management software, “ says Charlene.
Artfield Investments is now helping all its new and existing clients develop similar systems to expand their businesses. For more information, visit www.ArtfieldInvestments.com.
