You may have read way too many blog posts and articles on how social media can help you grow your business, find new customers, engage with customers, and so on and so forth. But let me tell you that reality cannot be far from this. All this hoopla about social media being the ultimate ‘go-to’ promotion strategy comes with a lot of fine print which many businesses, including ecommerce ones, tend to neglect. Read more
From small logistics companies to large marketing mammoths – everybody seems to be obsessed with ‘Big Data’. While some companies have dedicated teams working on deciphering trends and patterns from analysing of a mound of data, there are those who have gone supercilious by buying out data processing agencies altogether. The key thing to note here is that everybody is slowly warming up to big data. Read more
Surprisingly, for us internet savvy generation, it is pretty easy to get myopic with the medium. Given the sheer scale of the internet, there is so much to see, do and learn and yet most of us find ourselves going back to the same humdrum over and over again. In this post, I will talk about how you can work on re-directing that passive, Facebook-consumed energy into something more productive. So turn off that Facebook window and consider these following recommendations to make the best of internet and feel productive.

In a recently published article by Fast Company, a noteworthy finding related to the American workforce has been highlighted. The story has focused on the significant rise in number of freelancers and work from home employees, and how they are changing the way organizations function. What is even more worthwhile to note is that the stigma associated with the ‘work from home’ class of people as being useless and underpaid is slowly fading away. And with this, a new breed of independent workers is seemingly emerging, and rather consciously too. Read more
I am a pseudo-entrepreneur, which means that I have entrepreneurial characteristics without a venture to call my own. But I like to think that I extend my entrepreneurial characteristics into every single piece of work that I do, including writing this particular blog post. I own up to my work, feel responsible for it, feel satisfied when done well and can feel inspired enough to wake up another day to do a fantastic job yet again. Read more
As sad as it makes me to say this I have to admit that gone are the days when travel and work could be treated as two separate things. The need to be ‘accessible’ – thanks to flexible work cultures and remote teams – one often cannot afford to simply switch off and travel internet-free. Even if you bag the liberty to cut off from work for a while, can you imagine travelling to a new place without the Internet? For the relatively unadventurous kinds, the prospect reeks of paranoia and there exists solace only in the thought that no matter where you go, there will be Internet. Spontaneity is highly undesirable, but an act of planned spontaneity is an affordable enough indulgence. Read more
Digital marketing is about getting people to view and interact with your digital content. In traditional forms of marketing such as mail, posters, billboards, and TV commercials, it can be exceedingly difficult to measure the effectiveness of your message. When marketing goes digital, however, every view and interaction is available as raw data. Knowing precisely how well your digital marketing campaign is performing based on any number of metrics will give you an actionable answer as to what to improve and what to preserve. Read more
There is no medium possibly more demanding than that of social media.

In an ode to the precious commodity that is time here are 5 simple, easy to adopt habits every social media community manager can swear by if they hope to have a life while managing a platter of social media assets.

I am no stranger to procrastination. I doubt myself more than I’d like to admit and often my staunch awareness of under performance can be astonishing (whether or not someone has pointed it out to me). Nonetheless, as someone who has been working in the digital domain, every day is a struggle to do better and get more done. And as I get busier by the day with ‘urgent’ emails overloading my inbox as we speak I can feel the stress getting to me. But I have stumbled upon few life-hacks and made some critical professional lifestyle choices that seemingly make me more productive and help me get things done! Read more
Deadlines. Projects. Meetings. Proposals. Assignments. We’re constantly racing against the clock to lessen our seemingly never-ending workload. If only we had 25 hours in a day! While that’s not quite possible, perhaps what we need is not more time but instead, better time management.
Time is as good as gold – efficiency counts and that means maximizing your results with the least amount of time. A good balance between work and play requires managing your time properly. After all, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Here are 10 popular time management techniques to help you (and Jack) make time for the things that matter. Read more

Creativity is quite an obscure concept; one which ambitiously questions the existing way of things and the scope of human potential. And every so often it redefines the boundaries of human capability. So, it will not be completely over-reaching of me if I were to infer (rather gallantly, too) that creativity holds the key for unlocking new ideas and innovations.
In a business setting, the yearning for creative minds is greater than ever before. Caused by a worldwide outcry against innovation shortfall, people bearing high levels of creativity-related skills (or even a reputation thereof) are being hunted down for building more productive teams capable of building innovative products. Read more
It’s the latest addition to the digital marketing lexicon but there is nothing quite new about content marketing. It’s only that we have finally acknowledged that there is a thing called as ‘content marketing’ or what some fancy digital marketing pedants would call ‘brand journalism’. After all, you know something called ‘content marketing’ is important when global brands like Coke, Pepsi, and Red Bull start embracing it and devote sincere time and efforts towards developing insane and some really creative content. Read more
As much as I hate to admit it most of my professional time is used up trying to take care of the silliest of things. There’s a never-ending loop of interrupting emails that come knocking at my inbox every minute of the day, overwhelming me with just too many “urgent” requirements; the vicious length of procedures and approvals that need conforming to, and an incessant obsession with pointless meetings — it’s exhausting!

We are half way through 2014 and if you aren’t already using a social media calendar to plan and schedule your posts, then start immediately!

It’s common knowledge that workaholics maintain a crazy schedule. They are always preoccupied with performing well and as long as they are able to meet their targets, no second thought is given to how they managed it all. But what happens when you want to repeat such accidental success stories?
This is one situation we have all stumbled into at some point in our lives. And often respite rests merely in our abilities to conjure up memories from the last time we were involved in a similar situation. Read more
Ah, Gmail – love it or hate it, more than 500 million users worldwide and I all just cannot live without it.

In such question- and-answer websites where users themselves ask, answer and edit, you can be assured of finding some fun facts, unknown ideas and DIY hacks that are guaranteed to make your life just a little bit easier.

For the longest time I have been a keen follower and a strong advocate of TED Talks. Over the years I have found that websites like TED are excellent conduits of knowledge; one which cannot just be consumed out of a book. TED in particular appeals to me for three simple reasons: its audio-visual format, interactive nature and crisp presentation. Read more
Given the fact that you may be using some sort of project management software for marketing or any other professional activity for that matter, there is a sly truth to the assertion when I say that every one of us has tried – at some point or the other — to get the load of work off of our backs and pass them on to someone else. And the truth be told, there is no harm in doing that, unless that someone does the job as good as you possibly can or better (if one is being optimistic). But the reality that bites into this whole picture pin-points the fact that delegation is easier said than done. Read more
Project teams tend to combine many different individual capabilities working in lieu of a common goal. While members are individually adept, they comprise, after all, a team and working in close tandem is the biological necessity for the team to thrive and reach its interim goal. One of the major issues project teams face today is to get each of their members — who, in fact, often bear 6 degrees of separation between themselves — acclimatised to some project management software or the other.

From the outside, our job as content writers looks plenty easy. “You just write, right?” is something we hear on a daily basis. But of course, we all know the truth.
Sure, the process is broadly about coming up with an idea and finding a good way to express it. Yet, it can be so difficult to find a good article idea that is not only factually accurate but also original; has the potential to go viral; and is told to the audience in a way that is appealing. All of these traits within an editor-imposed word count limit. Read more
Before I left on my trip earlier this month, I came across an article on how it is better to host your blog on a subfolder (e.g. www.brightpod.com/blog) on your site rather than a subdomain. We host this blog on a subdomain (e.g. blog.brightpod.com) so I was curious to know more about how this would impact our search engine results and ranking.
I searched a bit more on this issue and found a ton of posts, forum q&a from 2010 to 2013. These articles argue that with the subdomain method the mighty SEO juice will not get passed up (or flow) to your primary domain which ultimately can be detrimental to your search engine rankings. Read more
“My landing pages aren’t converting”, “Why is the bounce rate so high for my landing page?”, “Is the PPC campaign a total botch?” — have you ever heard yourself asking these questions in your head?

Social media management in this day and age is a relentless race to keep tabs on, produce and sell the best content, while at the same time speaking to and keeping tabs on an increasingly demanding audience that wants quick attention to their needs.

If you ever felt that you needed help with your social media efforts, but your company can’t hire someone to take on your load, here are some great tools that can automate your management processes. Read more
In our ever-connected world, online file-sharing services are essential for any business to operate on a global scale. Sure, email works too, but as it turns out, most have size limits that constrain (and confound) you at every turn.
For example, Gmail has an attachment size limit of a paltry 25MB, which might be fine for sending a photo or two, but certainly not big items such as movies or Photoshop files. Thumb drives are extraordinarily big in capacity these days (1TB, anyone?), but it’s hardly practical to Fedex a thumb drive to an employee or client on the other side of the world. Read more
It has to be understood that unlike traditional marketing, priority of content marketing is not selling but a goal of communicating with customers or any audience suitable. The final aim may or may not be sales. Read more

I love presenting Brightpod to a digital agency founder or his/her digital marketing team. I think giving a demo to a prospective customer is the best way to get into their head and know what they are thinking before you make the sale.

As a freelance content strategist and writer, I have had the glorious advantage of being able to work whenever I want, wherever I want to – the benefits of remote working have been documented extensively.
I have come to realize, though, that mere willpower and discipline is not enough to get through a day of working, especially in the area of marketing. Marketers will know exactly what I’m talking about – one minute, we’re writing an extended longform article on “X Ways to be Productive”, and the next we’re off replying to urgent customer requests on our client’s social media platforms.

I politely introduced myself and then told them about what wonders Brightpod could do for their small digital agency. Read more

I check it once every 5 mins, clicking the refresh button and hoping to see something interesting pop in and spice up my day. Read more
