Today was my first day in a call center.
Good news for everybody! This is the number one in the world for quality, reputation and so on! Calling center name: Stream.
I decided to make a podcast of it! I admit it! I went overboard! Gee!
Total time around 10 minutes. I did it on the fly! No editing!
Enjoy or shoot at me!

Ceci est seulement une petite mise à jour sur mon projet de café!
Le café se vend bien ici au Costa Rica. Plus vite que je le pensais. C’est intéressantcomme revenu d’appoint. Par contre les ventes sur Internet …c’est pas fort. C’est normal! Le site principal n’est pas encore pret! Un petit graphique par ici, un petit vidéo par là, une bande sonore en plus! Ça ne finit jamais!
Alors j’ai ouvert une boutique de café chez Ebay. Pas fort non plus! Je crois que j’en ai trop mis: trop d’informations sur le café, des podcasts, etc. etc.
Alors on va laisser mourir de sa belle mort les 2 offres sur Ebay. Cela m’a donné une idée, i.e. un angle différent pour promouvoir mon café.
À suivre.

I could not resist to publish that Power Point Presentation about Vietnam! I converted it to flash and ..here it is! The Vietnamese background music match perfectly the slide presentation.
For a full screen presentation you can go here:

It will take a while to display, but it’s worth it! Click on the pictures with your mouse to change slides.

Le point est celui-ci: pouvoir contrôler le temps entre la commande et la livraison du café. L’objectif est simple: 24 heures entre la réception de la commande de café et l’expédition.
Example:
- je recois une commande un Dimanche, au plus tard je torréfié Lundi et expédié le café ce même jour.
- autre option: je torréfie la même journée ou je reçoie la commande, même un Dimanche, empaque le café et Lundi, appelle la companie d’expédition.

I was searching and searching for a good domain name to sell my coffee from Costa Rica. I nearly fried my brain cells!
Finally the light!
Something super simple! Something KISS style! A little bit longer but very easy to remember!
MyCoffeeFromCostaRica.com
What do you think! Too simple! Not too bad!

Apres plus de 10 ans d’opérations, j’ai vendu mon cybercafé. Cet internet café fut le premier internet café commercial en opération au Costa Rica. Il m’a fait bien vivre et ce, a travers les hauts et les bas. Prochaine étape? Bonne question! Probablement que cela va avoir affaire avec l’industrie du café!
After more than 10 years, I just sold my cybercafé in Costa Rica. What will be the next step? Well…this is another story but I think it will have to do with the coffee industry.

New Lodging Formula: Studio combined as a B. & B.!!

Do you want to spend a few more nights in Costa Rica?? No problem! You would like a super place for a longer period? Can be done!
It is a low profile low key Bed and Breakfast! No advertisement, no publicity. I like it quiet for myself and for my guests! It is located in a little town called San Francisco De 2 Rios. By bus, it takes 20/30 minutes. By taxi, 10/15 minutes. The cost of the taxi: $3.00

After the video, have a look at the 2 links below!
I created this mindmap for one software company. They are very happy! Very user friendly !
See by yourself!
The first link will show you a "standard" set of instructions to upgrade a software. This is the "normal" set of instructions companies gives to their clients to help them upgrade ..boring!.
Now let’s use these the same set of dull instructions, word for word, and transform them in a fantastic mindmap. In this last example, you will see that it is far easier to understand all the steps to upgrade the software, it is more colorful, more graphical, in a few words more visual! This is exactly what the brain loves!
Bottom line, if you like it, I could create a mindmap showing your users how to use your AdSense strategy.
Waiting for your feedback,
Roger
