Tiffany Implicated In Jan Webcam Video Shocker

March 1, 2013 by Jan Kearney

Yes, I have lost it… I was reading Tiffany’s blog on personalisation and why we fear it.  Needless to say, it struck a cord not least because of my own hang ups about showing myself online and not hiding behind a character or logo.  But also because small businesses I have worked with often do […]

Meet Jan Kearney

I believe that every business, no matter how small or how local can use the power of the web to gain more customers. I offer no bull coaching and mentoring so small business owners can strategically put the web to work for their business. I've been called a "compass" and a "navigator" and probably a few more names that aren't suitable for a profile!

“Being novices to IT, we hired Jan through a recommendation to help us with our web site(which is brilliant). Not only did she build the web site but she as mentored us through every step of the way, navigating the internet, encouraging us to joining different social networks. With out her help we would have been really struggling to cope with the requirements of a modern day business.
