Top 5 things service companies must do in order to survive in this economy

Service companies cannot sacrifice customer satisfaction for their financial bottom line in this economy.

I’ve recently had two important and extremely frustrating customer-service experiences, one dealing with a vehicle purchase and the other with a home-warranty company in charge of fixing my home’s broken furnace (I’m sitting at my computer in a 50-some degree room heated only by a tiny spaceheater.)… Continue

Top 5 things to do if you’ve lost your job

What should you do if you’ve lost your job? There are a million things you can do, but it’s difficult to know where to start.

Who's leading animal welfare worldwide?

I’m not an eternal optimist. But my faith in the power of hope and courage is stronger than ever, thanks to leaders like Rob Stewart (shark advocate and creator of the film Sharkwater), Paul Watson (founder of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society), Jill Robinson (founder of Animals Asia Foundation), and Seth Godin (social-media guru and inspiration to leaders/heretics worldwide.)… Continue

Hey Tristan.

I'm looking for a dog training company and a dog boarding company to promote. Do you have any connections in those areas?

Hi, Tristan --

Daisy and I are registered for Mutt Strut and can't wait. Also, we dropped off a bag of old towels at the shelter yesterday. I hope your little critters can use them. Thanks for taking them off my hands.

You can be assured I will keep posting away! Animals are a deep love of mine (as well as my business - I'm a professional animal communicator) so I'm glad to help in any way! :)

No problem. I enjoyed being there. Although, Miss Daisy was a little jealous when she smelled all the other dogs on me. I'll have to make it up to her. ;)

Hello Tristan! Good to finally 'meet' you! :) John indicated that you would be reaching out! I look forward to coming back up to your offices and meeting again soon. Or if you ever make it downtown and would like to meet up for lunch or coffee let me know. Regards, David

Hi Tristian. My name is Ginger Kreitl. I just joined Smaller Indiana to build my network in order to find employment in the Human Resources field. I recently graduated from Indiana Wesleyan University this past spring. I wanted to know if you had any ideas and/or contacts in the field?

Tristan, my name is Eric Kallin and I came across your Smoosier profile this early Saturday morning. I am the founder and principal of the Indiana Biz Network. We're a multi-chapter biz networking organization based in central Indiana with locations through out Indianapolis. I would love to offer you a complimentary invite to our next Tuesday, August 26th 9:30 am Broad Ripple Chapter hour long mixer at Flanner & Buchanan Funeral Home on east 62nd Street to give our group of about 30 principals of bizes an idea of your skills as an audio/vision and writing professional who we can refer some of our clients who are small-to-medium sized bizowners that can use your skills in helping them create podcasting via their websites. Would you like to attend?

Cordially,

Help

A few things to consider before joining Smaller Indiana:
1. Please use your real name (first and last) when you sign up, or we cannot open your account

2. Please do not use logos or commercial images for your profile photo

3. Events should be posted in the events calendar

4. You can post pretty much anything you want on your own personal page (self promotion, etc), and you can change the style of your personal profile page to reflect your corporate identification if you so choose.

5. Please keep all comments civil and polite. It's OK to feel strongly about a subject, and it's OK to be critical of ideas, but please refrain from personal attacks of any kind.

If you witness or experience any issues, please contact admin@smallerindiana.com and we will look into the matter.

6. Smaller Indiana is supported by its members, and by corporate sponsors. If you're interested in learning more about sponsorship, please call Pat Coyle at 317 332 7878.
