As a State Farm Bank customer (with business and personal banking and insurance accounts) for more than 10 years, one would expect to have been verified and qualified a gazillion times.
A few days ago, I called to check if a deposit had cleared. Unfortunately the voice print system didn’t recognize my voice after three tries AND answering all the verification questions correctly.
A live agent who I swear was a robot with zero personality, proceeded to ask me 15 questions…here are several:
The world of healthcare has mobilized to bring more applications and technology to smart devices in autos, offices, homes, schools, and in transit. People can check their numbers for just about anything by logging in and clicking.
As consumers become more informed about living healthy, hospitals are grappling with higher costs per patient for care, readmissions, and physicians’ and medical teams’ fees.
Tweet Ran across this infographic on college costs…I don’t know about you, but I’m thinking anyone with kids planning to go on to pursue additional studies after high school will have some heavy thinking to do when it comes to financing. Great job to FrugalDad.com for putting together this intense and informative graphic.
Every SMB (small-to-medium business) is strapped – maybe it’s a bootstrap or belt strap. Regardless; we’re tied to our business.
We earn more clients and business to bring in more revenue.
We align with the best people who can make the business grow.
We manage operations to ensure efficiency and economy of scale.
What a perfect way to re-launch The SMB Collective with a post on Twitter (albeit a repurposed post from May). The news today should have everyone taking notice — TWITTER HAS UPGRADED PROFILE PAGES. What that means is your Twitter profile can get a facelift with more pleasing graphics. I think it’s all about Twitter wanting to compete with Facebook’s Timeline with the header options. At any rate, do take a look and see how your business can, and should, add some pretty pictures to your branded page. Me? I need to heed that advice, as well. It’s so easy to forget about Twitter. com, but they continue to draw you back to pay attention.
