Experience the Power of Social Media Networking & Easily Find Local Cuisine
Our saga continues with our 10 best travel tips and 10 new smartphone/tablet applications all tailor made for the busy traveling professional.
Travel Tip of the Week #8:
Use your social media sites to grow your list of potential clients.
Jump on the Social Media bandwagon to reach out to your friends. You never know when you will make it into a business deal.
Review your friends and contacts on Facebook, Twitter, and Linked In. There are many people that you are connected to that you may have only met a handful of times or you only know them through someone else. Challenge yourself to reach out to a handful of new people each week using your social media sites and offer to buy them coffee. You never know when you can convert your existing contacts into a client or friend. Also, by doing this you are spreading the word of what you do and are growing your network.
Smartphone App of the Week
See how easy it is to search for local eats where ever you are.
This week’s App is Urbanspoon through iTunes. You may have heard of the website urbanspoon.com. Well this app is the portable version of the site where you can view all local and chain restaurants in your area.

2) Don’t cause problems but find valuable solutions while you are on a business trip – especially when your boss is tagging along.
3) Always be punctual.
4) Always be polite to everyone including staff members where you are lodging, restaurants, shops, etc.
5) Do NOT drink too much.
6) Do not ask for any special favors from your boss.
7) Go with the flow – do not be difficult.
