Gillmor Gang 2.19.11 (TCTV)

The Gillmor Gang conflated two major stories this week into one: Apple?s terms of service for app store approval, and Twitter?s actions regarding UberMedia. The noise regarding Apple being hauled in front of the DOJ illustrates just how powerful Apple?s strategy continues to be. As many point out, Android?s market share makes it virtually impossible to tar iOS with monopoly status. It?s almost as though Erick and Steve planned it that way, right down to Google following up with its 90% scenario as if to validate Apple?s 70% model. Stephen Elop also made that point with his decision to let Microsoft acquire Nokia, reminiscent of Yahoo?s failure to notice the ballgame was over when Ballmer pulled the trigger on them a few years ago. Then it was a seat at the search table; today it?s a seat at the mobile one.

How is Your Business Different

Creating a marketing and business plan for a small business can at times seem like an overwhelming task for a new business owner. Yet, it need not be. A business plan is simply a formal statement that contains a set of business goals; and a marketing plan outlines the necessary actions which the business needs to take in order to achieve its marketing objectives.
