Mumbai and Montreal: Connected At The Hip

Estimated Reading Time: 2 minutes

As you read this, I’ll be dashing to the airport to take off for MontrÃ©al.

From Personal Relations to Public Relations

Estimated Reading Time: 41 seconds

I had the good fortune to be a presenter at Social Commerce Camp DC in February, thanks to Shashi Bellamkonda and Kikscore. As I was looking through my deck, it occurred to me it would probably make for a good series of posts on PR best practices for small businesses:
