I like the picture for number one, and how it shows that more marketing channels can bring in a positive return on the investment made.as far as the staffing issue risks, online methods to obtain individuals sure have served positively.

Good post, Jeff. We have done online reputation management for many companies and this is an important aspect in a business brand. Addressing and tackle the problems or negative results early can minimize the risk to a business.

Great Post. I think in today’s online situation its the new entrant competition that is the most portent force to deal with.

Nice tips. I especially agree about the diversification. If it wasn’t for that, I would have ran into problems a long while ago.

Thanks for the informative read! Not everyone will keep all those factors in consideration though.

“many people and businesses do not necessarily understand all the inherent benefits of search” I’ll be quoting you on that. I think you nailed it be explaining the more channels the better odds at ROI. I find myself frequently educating others regarding the importance of more than just a website. The single channel approach stinks and I think using the term channels is a good way to explain opportunities to none search savvy business owners.

can’t think of other forms of risk to add. it looks like search has an overall positive effect in the sense that it creates yet another avenue for a firm to do the things it normally does, and this diversification generally reduces most forms of risk.
