Photo courtesy of iStockphoto, Felix Möckel Fragen über die Vergangenheit halte ich immer dann für gut und richtig, wenn sich aus diesen Fragen Antworten, Perspektiven und Handlungsalternativen für die Zukunft ableiten lassen. Fragen nach der Vergangheit sind also dann gut und richtig, wenn sie impliziet beinhalten, dass aus dem Fragezeichen ein Ausrufezeichen (!) wird.

Daher war ich zunächst einmal ein wenig skeptisch, als ich im Modern B2B Marketing-Blog las, wie sich denn das B2B-Marketing seit 2000 geändert hat. Ich empfehle nun aber, diesem Beitrag zu lauschen, es lohnt sich, da viele Impulse abgeleitet werden können - auch wenn die Tonqualität (klingt nach aufgezeichnetem Telefonat) manchmal doch zu wünschen übrig lässt.

Photo courtesy of iStockphoto, Alex Slobodkin To buy or not do buy, das sind hier die Fragen. Bei Unternehmen kann das auch heißen: Stelle ich nun einen Mitarbeiter zur Bewältigung des Großprojektes ein, oder lasse ich es und versuche die anfallenden Kapazitätsnachfragen durch Überstunden und Freie Mitarbeiter (Freelancer) bewältigen. Eine schwierige Entscheidung. Beides hat Vor- und Nachteile, wobei vor allem kleinere Unternehmen und Dienstleister die Freelancer-Variante favorisieren dürften.

Gute Impulse, wie sich aus einzelnen Freelancern ein Team, ausgerichtet am Projekterfolg ergibt, beschreibt recht ordentlich Deborah Brown im Small Business Trends-Blog.

Another airline is forcing you into credit-only onboard - as of August 5, Alaska Airlines began offering "the convenience of a cashless cabin. Passengers will no longer need to hunt for cash to pay for on board purchases..."

And, by the way, now that you have the "convenience" of a "cashless cabin", you should know that "Cash will no longer be accepted onboard."

I don't have a real problem with going credit-only, but I think it's sort of lame to call it a "convenience" when you force your passengers to use credit only and prohibit cash. The only party that is 100% guaranteed to consider this "convenient" is the airline that no longer has to deal with cash.

Anyway, just an FYI if you're zooming in or out of Alaska. See full article.

2point6billion published a piece earlier this month on infrastructure funds and their growing presence in Asia.

According to their post, private equity is investing in infrastructure in emerging markets all over Asia. They quote Morgan Stanley as forecasting over $21 trillion in infrastructure spending in emerging markets over the next decade. Two-thirds of that spending will be in Asia, and two-thirds of the Asian spending (about 44% of the total) will be in China.

Morgan Stanley in particular sees the possibilities in infrastructure investment as "a fantastic opportunity for us at a time when a lot of our competitors are scaling down," according to Bryan Southergill, JP Morgan's Asia real estate head. Southergill's statement was part of an interview with Reuters.

JP Morgan recently announced infrastructure investment funds of US$1 billion along with plans to focus those funds primarily on cities in India and China, with a secondary focus on South Korea, Singapore and Hong Kong.

Mapgirl:
I just don't understand the DC housing market. How can people live here, save and have kids all at the same time? Unless you really are a K Street lobbyist raking in the dough, it's nigh impossible to live here and raise children all at the same time. (But is my dream of San Francisco any better? Hardly.)
Get Rich Slick:
I've noticed a disturbing new trend with some PF Bloggers - the deletion of dissenting comments to skew the discussion in favor of the authors point of view.

This is also a primary reason I don't have ads on my blogs, bloggers become "slaves" to the income from their "masters" and anything that interferes with the master/slave income relationship (i.e. reader comments) becomes a target for deletion or redaction.
Get Rich Slowly:
I made $120 for one hour of work last week.

On Tuesday, I participated in a neuroeconomics study at a nearby university. For sixty minutes, I lay inside an MRI scanner while answering questions about money. When I had finished, the researchers paid me $120. In cash.

I admit that with the four hour round-trip and the half hour of wait time, my hourly rate drops to something nearer $20, but that's still not bad. See full article.
