Ez egy inkább száraz rész, ahol a 2018 előtti BMW i3 menüjének minden kis szegletét bemutatom. Szóval, ha vlogos, pörgős részeket keresel, akkor nyugodtan hagyd ezt ki. Ha viszont fanatikus vagy, akkor ez egy gyöngyszem lesz neked 🙂
Valentin-napon majdnem felére csökkent tavaly a PornHub látogatottsága.
Karácsony után Valentin-napra költünk a legtöbbet – csak Amerikában többet, mint amennyiért a WhatsAppot felvásárolta a Facebook. De ennyi pénzből akár egy évig finanszírozhatnád a NASA-t is. A Tinder használata is növekszik? Mennyivel?
Nézd meg erről készült videóm és kiderül. Ha pedig tetszett, küld el kedvesednek, vagy csak simán oszd meg #sharingiscaring.
Bence pár évvel fiatalabb nálam, de az egyik legbölcsebb ember akivel beszélgettem! Olyan dolgokról dumáltunk, mint hogy miért fontos, hogy ne függjünk másoktól, vagy hogy nem létezik az élethez alap recept. Pont az a hiba, hogy a legtöbben nem találják meg maguknak azt a szakmát ami igazán nekik való.
Persze a komoly gondolatokon túl kiderül, hogy milyen tetoválást akart magára varratni Bence, de már örül, hogy nem tette. Vagy mégsem?:) Lesz szó párválasztási-, és gyereknevelési tanácsokról, és még időgépet is építenénk! Remélem annyira fogjátok élvezni az interjút, mint én!
Elég sok konfernciára juthattam el az elmúlt pár évben. Szerencsére a legtöbbet elég hasznosnak éltem meg, de volt néhány teljesen felesleges és időpazarló is. A tanulság, hogy mindezt kivédhetjük, ha előre megfelelően felkészülünk.
Ha a videóban lévő néhány szabályt betartod és megfogadod a trükkjeim, akkor elég hatékonyan fogsz tudni konferenciákra eljutni és szerepelni rajtuk!
Sophie Tari számomra egy kincsesdoboz a magyar közösségi médiában. Az Egysorosokkal egy régen elfeledett szépséget ad, mely a magyar nyelv gyönyörű játéka.
Nem csak sorai, hanem gondolatai is ugyanolyan értékesek. Remélem ti is annak találjátok!
Kövessétek az Egysorosokat Facebookon és Instagramon!
Casey posztolt egyvideót amiben magával beszélget a januári bizar hajáról. Egy este néztük Katával és annyira megtetszett, hogy gondoltam megpróbálom én is elkészíteni.
A story pikantériája, hogy én is pont másnap mentem fodrászhoz, úgyhogy látványosan tudtam egy borosta-, és hajvágás utáni kombót megcsinálni.
Az eredmény szerintem poén lett, de hát baromi nehéz volt összeszinkronizálni és így is jó sok baki maradt benne. Ha megtaláljátok, kommenteljetek!
Óriási respect Casey-nek és nézzétek meg a videóját, ha még nem láttátok volna: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xp_hl…
Ez egy 2017 évvégi összeállítást láthattok, amit már rég ki szerettem volna rakni. Több részben érdekes. Egyrészről nekem egy szóval leírva, döbbenetes: döbbenetes amit láttam a PlayIT-en, a legnagyobb magyar gamer és e-sport expón, valamint az alatta megrendezett videós “konferencián, az OVS-en. Hihetetlen látnom digitális marketingesként, hogy milyen iparágak épülnek és befolyásolnak erősen másokat.
Ez volt a videó első része. Ja meg, hogy Dancsó Péter Videómániás klipjében szerepeltem 😀
A másdodik részében pedig a TEDxYouth@Budapest 2017-es kiadásának élményét osztom meg. Kemény gondolatok az előadóktól, robotikától kezdve regényírásig és maga Shane Tusup (USC, Fight On, Hosszú Katinka féjre-edzője) gondolataig. De a szünetekben ki lehetett tölteni Zimbardo időparadoxon tesztjét. Nagyon izgalmas, nektek is ajánlom.
“Új évi fogadalmak”, “egy 365 oldalas könyv első lapjai”… Ezekben nem hiszek és te se higyj! De akkor mi a motiváció?
Elsőre kisautónak tűnhet a BMW i3, de mégis elég tágas. Nem csak érzetre, de rengeteg hely van pakolásra. Nyílván nem egy SUV-val kell összehasonlítani, de egy hosszúhétvégi utat akár négyen is bevállalhatunk kisbőröndökkel vagy ketten egy golfos hétvégét. A mindennapokra pedig elég praktikusak az elhelyezései. A videóban bemutatom.

A címmel ellentétben, én most nem a barokk körmondatokra, vagy a bullett point-okba szedett tömör levelekre gondolok. Sokkal inkább a magad időmenedzsmentjére és produktivitási trükkökre!
Az emberek fele feladja egy utánkövető email után. Pedig a sikeres levelek átlaga nyolc, azaz nyolc utánkövetés!
Ez az a funkció, ami órákat és nagyon fontos dealeket spórol nekem. Ennek köszönhetően jutottam el rengeteg konferenciára ingyen, akár előadóként, lettek új ügyfeleim, ültek le velem olyan elfoglalt emberek beszélgetni, akikre a legtöbben azt mondják, hogy esélytelen. Ez az egyszerű kis funkció annyit tesz, hogy az általad meghatározott időben szól neked, ha nem válaszoltak a leveledre. Tegyük fel, hogy egy régi ügyfeleddel szeretnél egy új projekten dolgozni, de nagyon elfoglalt. Megígéri, hogy jövő hét végéig ír neked, de sajnos közbeszól az élet és nem kapsz levelet. Még szerencse, hogy erre a levélre beállítottál egy 2 hetes emlékeztetőt és így kapsz is értesítést. Nem kell a fejedben tartanod, naptáradba írnod, Excelt vezetned, a program elvégzi helyetted a munkát. Magic!
Biztosan előfordult már veled is, hogy egy késői órán kaptál a főnöködtől vagy partneredtől levelet, melyen utána dolgoznod kellett. Sőt, akár lehet, hogy te is küldtél már ilyet. Az egyik legjobb nagyvállalati felsővezetői tanács amit hallottam, hogy a leveleid munkaidőbe időzítsd. Mennyivel nagyobb az esélye, hogy jobb kedvvel válaszol a kollégád, vagy egy ügyfeled, valóban meg is nyitja a leveled, ha azt délelőtt küldőd hajnali 1 helyett.
Egy másik érdekes story: megtudtam, hogy az egyik partnerem például vasárnap este emailezik. Kb. minden emailemet előre, vasárnap este 7 órára időzítem és így küldöm neki. Amióta így teszek, nagyon megnőtt a válaszadási ráta. Nem azért, mert nem akarna válaszolni, csak máskor annyira elfoglalt. Ez a funkció egy általad előre meghatározott időben küldi el a leveled. Egy másik jó felhasználási trükköt a videómban mondok el. Az is olyan, ami legalább 10 perceket spórol nekem!
Sokszor kell ugyanolyan vagy hasonló választ írni: mikor legyen a meeting, küldj egy bemutatkozót, heti riport stb. Ezekre általában megvan a sablonunk egy word vagy jobb esetben Google Drive formában. De az igazán profik a levelezőprogramon belül beállítanak billentyűkombinációkat és egyből beilleszthetik a szükséges információt!
Neked melyek a legjobb trükkjeid? A fentiek közül melyiket kezded el alkalmazni?
Ha érdekel, hogy milyen programok vannak minderre, akkor a Yesware.com vagy a Followup.cc lehetőségeit ajánlanám, a pluginjei akár Gmail, vagy Outlook fiókba is beépíthetőek. Vannak natív megoldások is, amelyekre én is áttértem. Egyik ilyen például a Spark, azt pedig, hogy miként működik a valóságban, azt a fenti videóban mutatom be.

What if? I asked myself what if I could bo back in time… I had my birthday last week. Getting older means, on a level, to revaluate old habits and things in my life. This year I looked at my digital footprint and information sources and realized that it is so clutered and I have so many irrelevant feed from my past. Unfollow people fast. Things that used to be interesting for me 10 years ago but not anymore. Also, my filtering got pretty good and improved over the years.
So even though I cannot go back in time, I can use my current knowledge and rebuild my digital information stream from the ground up. I unfollowed everything and everyone on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Twitter, I unsubscribed from all my email newsletters — only leaving a few, favorite sources. I did it almost 2 weeks ago and have been building it up from the scratch.
I realized some instant wins:
So I can only recommend it to you as well. Share your tips and experience in the comment!
Before we start, I’d like to thank Julie Morris for her thoughts and reaching out to co-author this article!
You have a big idea. You’ve taken time to plan your next big project. Now, you just need to set some goals. If this sounds familiar – and it should – take time to make sure you’re setting the right type of goals for your continued success. S.M.A.R.T. goals are: Specific, Measurable, Action-oriented, Realistic and Time-based. Instead of resolving to increase your sales this year, come up with the specific amount of profit you’d like to make and calculate the number of new clients you’d need to gain in order to hit your sales goal. Define exactly what you want to achieve, the specific steps you can take to achieve those goals, and how you will measure your success. Consider numbers that sound realistic for a certain length of time. Can you boost revenue by $1,000 this month? How long will it take, realistically speaking, to get 10 new clients? With SMART goals, you’ll find it much easier to measure your success when you look back at your accomplishments at the end of this year.
This is where you should apply the 80/20 rule, also known as Pareto’s law, and ask yourself: “What 20% of activities/customers/products are producing 80% of the profit?”. What it will show you is that 80% of your outcomes are the result of 20% of your actions. Find out which 20% of your tasks produce 80% of the desired results.
You know how the first rule of Fight Club is to never talk about Fight Club? Well, Entrepreneur Club is exactly the opposite of that. By putting the word out there about your business, you’ll instantly have accountability. This is especially true if you publish blogs, articles, or social media posts on the Internet. Sure, it can be scary discussing your vision with other people those first few times – but if you push through the fear of vulnerability, you’ll find that most people will be cheering you on. When you have the support of others, including clients and prospects, you’ll feel encouraged, confident, and be more likely to follow through on your plans. So go ahead, craft your perfect elevator pitch, and start talking up your business this year!
Social media is a wonderful business tool, but if you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, it’s good to explore your options. Instead of giving up on social media, you can use one of many social media automation tools to share your message across multiple sites at the same time. There are several of these tools out there. Pick your favorite one, connect it to your desired social networks, and – boom! Social media is no longer tedious or frustrating, and now your time and energy can go towards other tasks.
It shouldn’t be about the tool, but rather the outcome you are looking for. A rule of thumb to be applied is always testing something manually. Find out the flaws, make it better, and only then search for the right tools or software and automate it. Nonetheless, it doesn’t need to be black and white. You could semi-automate it.
For example, an automation freak friend of mine created a newsletter subscribe automation, where the new subscriber is A) added to the Mailchimp newsletter group, but also, B) a draft email is created in my friends Gmail, so he can personally reach out to the new subscriber.
Entrepreneurs are not lonely wolf. It is just a myth. Although being a “solopreneur” gives you the freedom to do a lot of things on your own when it comes to your business, it doesn’t mean you have to do everything alone. Take a look at how you’re spending your time each day. Are there areas where it might be beneficial to have some help? A business coach? A web developer? A virtual assistant? If money is tight, maybe a talented intern could help you in exchange for college credit. Whatever the case may be, consider whether it might be time to collaborate with other people in your journey to success.
Dare to ask! Vulnerability is not a weakness, but a strength!
Even the busiest business owners need to take time to reset, unwind and unplug. Running your own business can be a lot of work – and it can also bring a lot of rewards. It’s all worth the stress when we take time for ourselves to enjoy the freedom that it brings. If work-life balance feels like a struggle and you’re not used to taking time for self care, try to start small. Even if it’s just five minutes per day, find a realistic and doable amount of time that you can commit to unplugging from your business needs and just living your life. Trust me, it’s worth it. If you work from a home office, you can also reduce stress by optimizing your workspace to do so (which can free up more “you time” in the long run).
If you look at my calendar, you’ll find entries like ‘Me Time’ or ‘Maker Time’ – marked as busy. Sometimes close business partners ask me why can’ I make it to X and Y? The question seems obvious, taking the fact that they see my calendar and it says ‘Me Time’. One could assume that I’m not busy, but actually I am. I’m busy having a meeting with myself or completing a task that only needs my presence. First things first, so respect your own time!
Regardless of what your business goals might be for the new year, your continued success as a business owner ultimately depends upon your ability to plan your next move.

Let’s talk about your time-management and productivity hacks. Like those, you can save 30-60 mins by using them, and you might even enjoy this monotonic and boring task. Instead of annoying intros, let’s see some statistics and hacks:
This is a function with I can save hours and important deals. By using this, I have so many opportunities to attend conferences for free, even as a speaker. I had new customers, and I could also talk with some busy people, who are usually unreachable. This little action is sending you a notification if your email hasn’t been answered within a certain time you set earlier.
Here is an example: you would like to work on a new project with your old customer, but he is really busy. However he promised, he will come back to you by the end of next week, something came up, and he didn’t. Luckily you have set a reminder for 2 weeks for this email, so your notification arrived. You don’t need to keep it in your head, write down in your diary or making Excel files because this program is doing this job for you. Magic!
I’m sure you have been in a situation where you received an email from your manager or partner, and you had to work on it. You might even send one of those in the past. One of the greatest advise from a big company’s management I heard was that schedule your emails in working hours. There is a big chance your college or customer will answer it with more motivation if you send it in the morning instead of 1 am. The other story: I learned that one of my partner doing emails on Sunday evenings so I can schedule my sendings to him for that time. Since I follow this, the ratio of answering has increased. It`s nothing to do with his willingness to answer; he is just really busy. This function can delay sendings with a time defined by you. You can learn another awesome trick, which I share in my video. That also saves me tons of time.
Often times you have to write the same reply: when should we meet, sending intros or weekly report. If you are advanced, you already have templates for those in a Word file or on Google Drive. But the real professionals set up a combination of the keyboard and paste the needed information. Yesware provides a template section within their Gmail plugin.
Here is a crazy idea – sharing while spending time with people! Imagine a photo that depicts people genuinely sharing something – food, coffee or just each other’s time. It’s so rare today that people spend quality time together. Technology constantly connects us, but interferes with the personal time we spend together.
Building relationships isn’t just for personal life. Simon Sinek says “Companies don’t do business with companies. People do business with people.” And that’s true. The best businesses are the ones in which producers have a relationship with their consumers. This makes the customers feel valued (talk about repeat business) and gives the producer more insight into the clients need so a product that fits the market can be aptly created.
When I was fifteen, I hated coffee. Well, I kind of still do, but I often find myself at coffee houses with friends or business colleagues because it’s an easy way we can spend meaningful time together. It’s people sharing a moment together and not needing anything in return.
These casual “business meetings” serve as a foundation to a strong relationship. Clients don’t feel they’re being sold to when you meet in an informal setting and spend time together as two people – not as a business and a client. This meaningful time spent together lays the foundations for trust, which is essential for a client to have with a business. While it takes time and may not be an immediate payoff, these meeting are worth it because a client that trusts you will give you repeat business, recommend your products to their friends and give you honest feedback on how you can improve your product.
Now with this other visual in mind – of people sitting at a coffee shop or café spending time together without expecting anything in return, look at our consumer society where we have two actors: brands and consumers. Usually brands/producers try to pull one over on the consumers – they try to make money as quickly and cheaply as possible, regardless of how it impacts the consumer. Money is the motive and relationships fall by the wayside. This trend is so pervasive that customers are now weary of brands, but imagine if companies put more emphasis on clients and relationships. That would be groundbreaking and create an infinitely better shopping experience.
Companies blame this impersonal experience on the fact that they are flooded with too much information and have too much to do so they have no time to focus on building these relationships.
The world sometimes seems to be moving too fast and we just need to
So let’s revamp the company-customer relationship. How about this? Try to share that one coffee with your customers and see how it impacts your business. Use the inundation of technology and information to bring you closer to those who are interested in your product and what you’re doing.
We, at SpringTab, build relationships. We help brands reconnect with their customers on a personal level and do this by asking nothing from them in return; we try to understand them on a deeper level, so they get the best experience. We help our clients do the same through social data mining and auto-personalization.
Imagine a world, where a big corporation, like Amazon or Apple, could talk to each of their customers over that coffee. The way things are now, this obviously isn’t possible, but we believe there will be at time where companies and customers connect on that personal level. This is our dream, our goal and what we strive to make a reality.
So the question arises. What do we need to do today to make this dream a reality?
The next step is to create an automated personalized experience all around. Currently only advertisements are auto-personalized. We need to find a way to be so personal with clients that loyal buyers recommend the product to their friends – and right now, that’s missing.
To get to this point, we need to make a good first impression to take the time to get that first coffee so we can begin to form a personal relationship.
Mark Zuckerberg described this by using Facebook as an example. He said the profile is like a basic introduction, who we are when we introduce ourselves to each other. It shows our basic characteristics and interests. The timeline helps us get to know each other on a deeper level by showcasing the current events in our lives.
We often feel that there’s no time to meet everyone or spend meaningful time together – we’re too busy rushing here and there, which is true. But we need to make time. These personal relationships should be one of the most important things in our lives because it can greatly impact business. Even Mark Zuckerberg, as busy as he is, has made a resolution to meet people in all 50 states. While these meetings may not all be business related, he’ll be building an even bigger personal network and who knows what could happen from those connection. If one of the most successful and busiest men in America feel that this is an important task, we should all take a second look and re-evaluate.
SpringTab is the Facebook timeline for companies – we help you get to know clients based on their life’s current events. We give you insight to their real Facebook so you can break the ice and find a relatable way to reach out for the first time. And in case you want to go for a real coffee, we’ve set the groundwork for you to start building that personal relationship.
