Posted on March 31, 2008 by Kieron

A short while after I blogged� about the Coke Zone campaign last Friday I had a phone call from the account manager responsible for the programme to address my concerns. Great, I like to get these things sorted and get on and make money. So we had a brief chat about how to communicate effectively with TradeDoubler as my 9 emails seem to have been lost in the system, and I was told why my commission had been set to … Continue reading →

Posted on March 31, 2008 by Kieron

This post is inspired due to the fact that I’ve just dropped my car off at the garage as it needs a service. While I was waiting around I counted how many cars where in the lot, there were 58.

The Apprentice – brilliant, brilliant TV

Posted on March 27, 2008 by Kieron

Tonight saw the welcome return of The Apprentice� to our TV screens and I must say it’s good to have Sir Alan back telling all the toffs how it really is. Although I class The Apprentice as a “business/entrepreneur” type of show I have to be honest and admit that I don’t actually watch it to learn any business practices.
