Top 50 Business Influencers Event

I attended the Top 50 event last night and I was impressed how Brian Barquilla put the event together in such a short period of time and had about 150 people attending. Great Job Brian!

As I walked around the room I see people whom I met over the past 20 or so years being here in Jacksonville at different organizations such as Jacksonville Chamber, BNI, Networth, Jacksonville Business Consultants.

I looked at the Top 50 list and was surprised I only knew about 60% of the people on the list. As a business owner I questioned my own efforts in getting out to the business community and I realized that I was busy with production in my company and that the relationships I had made over that time that they were not championing for me or my company because I was not in the mix consistently. I am sure this cost my business to competitors that I know see at the events. I am in the fastest changing industry and I also have to allocate time for training on new technology and made sacrifices to networking.

In the past people whom I felt influenced my business was without a doubt directly ranked by contribution. #1 Chris Everson #2 Carlin Boswell #3 Tresa Calfee #4 Larry Levy #5 Mike Aston. These are my top 5 people who went out of way to ensure Tec on Call was the company the prospects would need for their IT and communication needs.

Indirectly, I would have to thank Lynn Coggin for her leadership and teaching me different ways to network, Diana Otwell, Eva Greenfield, Jen Errair, Deb Eveson, Donna Reade and Mike McCreary whom support and services helped our company.

So, knowing these people have influenced about 25% of my business to my company and I appreciate each and every one of you. I now I have supported each one of you the same. I also believed what Lynn teaches givers gain and I have been blessed.

As for the others I am making a goal to get to know each of you by the end of the year and I want my networking efforts to contribute for 50-75 percent of my business.

Again Thank you!

PC care Tip #1

Here is a simple tip to help speed up your system:

Speed up access to data
Disk fragmentation slows the overall performance of your system. When files are fragmented, the computer must search the hard disk as a file is opened (to piece it back together). The response time can be significantly longer.

Disk Defragmenter (sometimes shortened to Defrag by users) is a Windows utility that consolidates fragmented files and folders on your computer’s hard disk so that each occupies a single space on the disk. With your files stored neatly end to end, without fragmentation, reading and writing to the disk speeds up.

When to run Disk Defragmenter
In addition to running Disk Defragmenter at regular intervals (weekly is optimal), there are other times you should run it, too, such as when:

You add a large number of files.

Your free disk space totals 15 percent or less.

You install new programs or a new version of the Windows operating system

Get more memory space on your iPad Tip#1

Most of you in the apple world use your ipod and that feature is also on the ipad. But with limited memory being 16,32,64GB of memory you do not have alot of space for the applications, music, video’s, pictures which are large files on any platform. So I have found that by turning off my ipod totally on the ipad I was able to open up 29GB of space immediately. I know use Amazon cloud services for my music which it will tell you safari will not work but it does and I use downcast for my podcast which I have the choice of storing them or streamming them live.
