Well if that headline doesn’t have them visiting in droves, I don’t know what will.

Last year we worked on the Fox’s Lair campaign in the Isle of Man. Based on the popular BBC television show, The Dragons’ Den, we had a dozen or so companies pitching for funding from a panel of venture capitalists and corporate finance experts. Ten participants were offered funding and those who took up the [...]

I think it’s about time I came clean about something. Strive Public Relations is no longer a virtual consultancy. We moved to a mixed virtual/traditional model about six weeks ago. Let me explain.
The business was growing to a point where it was impossible to maintain the virtual status. We needed to hire some support staff, [...]

Yup. It seems I’ve been headhunted. I’m seriously considering an offer I’ve had from the world’s most dynamic marketing, ebusiness, design and consulting agency. It’s focused on Web 2.0, and as we all know, that is the future!
I’m particularly impressed with this crowd’s direct approach in business development and the creative, cutting-edge solutions [...]

I know that most bloggers are pretty keen on RSS syndication, and quite right too. But I have a feeling that there are quite a few Strivers out there that might not yet have gotten their heads around the technology.

I’ve been travelling all week and unable to update my blog. It’s surprising how much I missed it, actually. Anyway this is just a quick post to do some shameless self promotion. The Isle of Man Newspapers website ran a Q&A about business blogging in which I answered some common question. Have a great weekend [...]
