The X-Factor is back!
Now this may appear to have nothing to do with the internet and web advice. Well, it has, but in a very loose way.
Can it be possible that some of the awful crooners actually and truly believe they can sing? What exactly are they hearing? The x-factor is half built to laugh at these people, but there are so many of them.
When I look at websites and discuss them with their owners, I am often amazed, that they can talk about their websites with pride. They point at awful constructions straight from the 90’s and beam with pride, ‘you can see it’s a really good site’ they exclaim ‘but we don’t seem to be getting many orders.’ and I wonder why? Look at the state of it!
So the lesson from the x-factor is this. Go onto your competitors website and buy something. Call it the price of a lesson in humility. The question is then why or how are you better?

Wow. What can I say.
I bought lavender oil from a competitior after reading this. Wow. What an eye opener.
It had leaflets, stickers, fridge magnets and I must admit they were pretty cool. Even my own daughter wanted to keep them on the fridge!
I am now planning and designing our own range.
Thanks. I shall be watching them from now on.
