Hello all readers,
What should I say. I am very happy in my new job as a Business Development Manager. It is great, and the first time I talk about it on my site here. Never before have I met so many people who are passionate about their job and keen on growing a small company to a medium one and then….onwards from there.
It is tough so, a lot of work, but that is the way things are in the industry, and that is what I choose to do.
My old job - kind of - does not exist anymore. The show I was selling has now been canceled which is a shame for the industry but did not come as a surprise to me. That is about all I want to say about it.
What else has happening. Regarding shows I had my first show from the exhibitor side of things last week and it went well. Very well.
Then we finally got freeview at home. Jenny and I got an aerial connection and a freeview box. Last night we watched CSI until Midnight. How nice ,-) We entered the digital age!
What is cb consulting doing. To be honest, not too much. Currently I am working with one client for careers advice and coaching but also I work on a new concept of cb consulting. More in the field of Marketing/Strategic Consulting as well as Spiritual Consulting for business. That brings me back to my essay which is still there but with little progression. Mainly due to time restraints. My buddhist monk decided to “de-monk” and go back to Brazil where he is from. So working with him on buddhist thoughts will be difficult as to the absense of a physical presence but we will find a way as he is still very much believing in Buddhism and I am very keen on getting input from him.
So this week I send my love to all of you out there and hope that things are well for you too. I will be busy for the next few weeks and will have little time to blog. But, please stay tuned.
Yours
Volker

I am about to arrive back to London. That is where my train left 11.30 hours ago. What a day.
It is amazing what is possible these days. I went on a day trip to our HQ in York. Got 2 hours work done before the official office hours thanks to National Express’ WiFi connection on the train. Then a successful day full of meetings, and my daily emails done on the way back.
Years ago we did not use mobile phones and nowadays we complain if we cannot access the internet whilst on the road.
I started updating the cb consulting website and hopefully it will go life the end of the month. Together with a re-vamp of the blog, writing more about my personal life but always in connection to cb consulting.
The biggest news in the industry is the possible merger of MSN and Yahoo! - will it happen? Will it be good for the industry? Is Google bidding more for Yahoo! to avoid MSN taking a “bit of the cake” or trying to rule the internet like it does with the operating system Windows?
We shall see and hope that in the meantime more and more people are using the internet and want to be found. Since working for an Search Engine Marketing Agency, the internet got even more fascinating. Everyone is looking for everything. And Google has so many ways of watching out who ranks first and why….
But that is a different story. On a different day.
Back to London soon.
Yours
Volker
