Making An Impact By Making A Difference
The fact is that the Internet is more than e-commerce.It's
people.And for some people the Internet is the answer to real
freedom.A place to overcome huge personal obstacles by making
a place in the cyber-community. Perhaps just connecting with
others is enough, but for so many it's more than that.It's the
hope of a financial future for the single mom who wants to stay
home with her children (children who need to have mom home), for
the individual struggling with a handicap, for the people
burdened with health problems but still have so much to give,
for the deaf individual whose plane in cyberspace is level with
all the rest.So often we see the Internet as an opportunity to
make money, but we forget that often it's an opportunity to make
a difference.And conversely, making a difference IS good
business.
For those that know the ropes, it's time to hold
out a helping hand and for those that struggle, it's time to
take the hand that's offered.Sometimes we wonder if the rat
race hasn't moved onto the digital plane.Yes, there are rats
who want to take advantage of newbies.And the race is as
competitive now as it's ever been for positioning and
recognition for our businesses.For the newbie, it can be
exhausting trying to decipher the good from the bad.The
sincere from the scary.Not to mention all the information.
But there is but one small element of attitude that will make an
impact on your business for good.It doesn't matter if your
new.It doesn't matter if you know the ropes.It only matters
if you want to make a difference.And everyone has something to
give to making that difference for someone.And if you don't do
for your heart alone, do it for your business, but I strongly
suggest you do it for both.
So how you say?Well different people do it in different ways.
All you have to ask is what you have to give.Some people give
more with each sale.Some people offer free service to worthy
organizations.Some listen and respond to their emails.Others
select so many pro bono cases a month to help someone truly in
need.All it means, is the determination to make a positive
difference in someone else's life.
Admittedly, it can get a littledifficult trying to meet
expectations and as business people we want to....need to.But
add to that a desire for making a difference and it can get a
bit overwhelming.However, if you take the desire for makinga
difference and couple that with gentle boundaries (yes, one of
those sickening psychological words) you have a winning
combination that works dynamically.
At Write-Promotion we have worked with charitable causes at no
charge and often extend a hand to those that are really trying
hard to make it in their business.Sometimes it's started with
an order and became an extended service over time.There is
nothing as rewarding as giving time to the individual that has
true intent and just needs a lift up. Or a push, we push too .
We know, because we do it and it makes a huge impact not just on
the individual, but on us.I know that making a difference
changes lives because it's changed mine.A business with a
heart is a business with a future.A future of endless
possibilities.And you end the day with a smile on your face
that no bank balance can possibly match.
