Credibility, Trust and Thought Leadership – Discussing CPOP (Customer Point Of Pain)
Digital stalking isn’t just for dating. It happens in business every day at both the personal and corporate level.
What do you do when introduced to a person or a company, you head over to Google (or a few of you to Bing) in order to research the person/company you might want to do business with.
