Online marketing information can change quickly This article is 14 years and 11 days old, and the facts and opinions contained in it may be out of date.
These just popped to mind – and thought it’d make a good post. Most success on the web is not technical driven – it is still people driven. Here’s some rules I try to live by:
-
- Always pay people on time (preferably immediately upon receiving invoice)
- Be honest and transparent
- Don’t backbite people
- Don’t be afraid to say no
- Answer all your e-mail – even if it’s late or a short response
- Do things without an ulterior motive (it’s good to do favors)
- Overdeliver and underpromise
- Manage expectations effectively
- Execute, execute, execute
- Trust people, and put relationships first
- Make introductions
- Work with successful people
- Never ignore a conversation about you or your company (unless someone is trying the attack hook)
- Don’t pass crappy leads
- Help people learn, and work with smart people
- Have an abundance mentality
