Everyone and all companies make mistakes. That's obvious. The trouble with mistakes always comes after, and with many mistakes, some opportunities come with them.

So how do we take the errors we've made and grow from them? What we do after making a mistake matters. So here are the three key things you should do to make the best of your mistake.
Apologize
Yes, this is the first one. Always own up to the mistake you have made and apologize for it. You cannot go any further unless you do this first. If the error is small enough, you can use humor in your apology but always be direct in it.

Marketing And Branding, There's More Than Two Ways About It
Isn't it absolutely fascinating when you give a class of kindergarteners the same art prompt, they all come up with a completely different masterpiece?

I just love the variety, uniqueness and sunshine we all bring to the world.

7 Reasons Why Everyone Should Have At Least One Sales Job In Their Life
Ask a random person how they feel about sales and you're likely to hear one of the following:
'I could never do that job.'; 'I don't know if I'd be any good at it.'; 'I'd be a total natural.'

The truth is usually a bit more complicated, as there are many who never thought they'd be any good at sales who find themselves excelling at it, and others (usually extroverts) who crash and burn in a number of months.
For everybody else, sales remains something they only deal with when they're in the market for a new product, or as an abstract concept from movies and television.

How does it feel to know that the emails your marketing department works tirelessly to perfect are being completely ignored, simply because they're competing in the flourishing attention economy? I bet it doesn't feel good. In fact, it probably feels like your efforts are pointless! But marketing emails aren't pointless if they're eventually opened and at least skimmed through.
