DKOffice.in: Business Branding Productivity

Productivity in work requires learning beyond work hours. When you are writing a blog post, recording an youtube video or showing most important slides in the meeting room you are not most relaxed. Awesome things happens when you are most relaxed, remember Archimedes and his Eureka Eureka ? Often we try to force too hard which is compulsory too but hard that we do it once and then quit unknowingly. So what about taking one step at a time, may be it won't cause you miracle but be over time the task most difficult to you may look easy later. 1 is powerful, do one, zeros will add up. Keep doing, Hack Gaps . How much to do when it's not interesting but results are good, fruitful and worth. Read one line a day . Write one sentence a day . Learn one new word a day . Give 1 smile a day . Comment below 1 social media post a day . Clean 1 object a day . Bake 1 piece of bread a day . Become hostel ready . Boil 1cup hot water a day . Water 1 flower pot a day . Eat 1 healthy meal a day . H...

 Are you a digital nomad? If you travel a lot, then this article is not for you. Instead you should share your experiences here. If you have written something then perhaps sharing a link will do a lot of help. However, if you are not the one and planning to travel a lot, or may be less, whatever in your capacity you will face many challenges. Living space I am not talking about Sweden or Singapore. My experience says in Indian cities and if you are Indian finding a place to sit and work will be difficult. Search for the place before you set in. This should be a huge challenge if you have no property or things like home. Internet 5G is still a myth, 4G may be not in Tier 1 Cities for example Mumbai or Delhi, however even in famous tourist places for example say Goa getting a decent internet for work and far from main town areas will be challenging. And the main town aka city side rent will be skyrocketing. Lightweight laptop If you depend a lot on a laptop it should be lightweight f...

Originally published here https://www.careercare.info/2025/08/national-festival-greetings.html and there is small change in headline only. Today is Independence Day , the day on which we gained Freedom to become Guardian of this beautiful Nation called India. Our ancestors who were not only from our homes but from our neighborhood, from the same land and outside of our National Geography handed us the responsibility to take the nation to the next level leveraged with beauty. We called this nation our Motherland, India. The people of those times, definitely some and certainly who have taken the bigger roles and whose message still after so many years reminds us that we are the people of this wonderful land became our Heroes. The message of those people in words, through books, newspapers, magazines, and audio & visual media is so alive that the words said by those men and women become Lessons of Life for many. One such personality was Gandhi Ji , his name became immortal, you know w...

 Android devices has done much damage to human to human interaction, social media and endless scrolling have engaged every ear. You cannot get listener to talk, share or put your opinion. That is becoming common. In the noise full world of shorts it's opportunity when you get ears. It's not about talking but it's about meaning conversation. And it brings courage to take the next step in life and work.  When you speak and other person listen, nod an yes or no you truly may get next idea and of course you can speak better.  Better speaking is when you say more in less words, when you can put words in ambiance like you are putting designs in a canvas and it may arise emotions in other person, he feel free to give and take opinion, ask questions or seek help.  If this magic happen means you used your time well.  Why, I am saying this, as I don't speak much and not too often.  Last night I stumble upon a guy who become part of conversation by chance or choice.

 Mind the gaps. Blogging is not a money making machine. If that was even 1% true, people who can pay for peanuts may  have hired entire writing talent to blog for them. Of course there are employers who hire talent in multiple niches to write blog posts. Stories are spun around everything day and night. They don't mind content quality much because they know they have hired enough people to create surface level stories.  Such employers knows well they will get eye balls and business, why should they care about what people are reading. There brand value will be established.  If you are an individual who is choosing blogging as a career note the fact, you can blog in your niche only and your niche is about a thing that you like to learn more, dive deeper and relearn.  Your purpose is simple. Others should learn from your learnings. Time is limited. You can not learn many things together. So chose your best niche, learn and create content that can build your authori...

Your website is getting traffic but readers are going away, a common  problem many bloggers looking to get answer.  Blogging is lot different than writing news, specially if you are a niche blogger it's tough to hook user in your blog page, order your book, ask question, or book your consultation.  Blogging is considered evergreen medium, and promoted as a quick fix to make money. Companies know the more you write the more hooks they will get. Because writing is tough job. In frustration of posting more you will end up writing about something quickly and linking some webpages. Psychology of achieving more plays crucial role at this point.  Anyone can start a blog, but if you are blogging to promote your product or offer a service or content is the main product, in either case you need to do wise blogging.  Many blogger and fortunately or unfortunately expert blogger struggle to make living through blogging.  Some of the common reasons of not so successful b...

Content writing and Editing Services are growing in every part of the world. This is the evergreen field, start from scratch and keep going, keep growing, no looking back.

I think you should not hire me to do work, you should not pay me for my efforts, you should not make me part of your project, business or team. Why, here are my reasons 1. I am not yes boss person, I am straight forward, you like it or not who cares. 2. I am lazy. I don't like to carry my cell phone everywhere, it makes my weight some extra. 3. I am time waster. I take my own time to finish a task. I cannot work in hurry. 4. I am unavailable. I love my sleep. I  stay in silent zone. You need to fix time to speak on important stuff. And you should be available in given time. 5. I am not good friend. I won't tell your team where do I live. When I do party. What is my age? How much I earn. I don't want anyone to peep into my personal space. 6. I perform poorly. You are looking to make that thing so big, you are looking to beat an intel or google. I hate doing things which are done already. 7. I am mean. Perhaps you running this business for money. Sorry, my prices are high. 8....

I drink bandwidth, That is my favorite one liner about me. Bandwidth is new nutrition for me. Else it could be , Paraffin. Kerosene, Electricity and what not? You could have a good laugh about this later, I am not a lamp born before Edison, Period. Being born in a village I used to do my sums on a slate in the very light of Kerosene and my pet a buffalo enjoying her rest in the other corner. Laptop is a new modern tool, something that gives me a helping hand now to do work. I am a researcher without a doctorate by chance or choice which I won't bother till I have the ability to dig deeper in all the four directions. I am not earning enough to fund my research but I would love to go for it as soon as I can. Perhaps it's not the problems of funding but willingness to take that extra pain. Anyway beyond my research I create web architecture, write technical, educational and business content and take the responsibilities to fail. My research focuses on IT business development and b...

Irrespective of the kind of business and strategy you follow; SEO makes parts of every business. Better SEO means better business. To give your SEO strategy a boost here I am sharing simple tips, you will found worth! 1. Look back  Yes, you heard right. ‘Look back inside technical aspects of your website.’ Make a check thoroughly for anything broken inside, may be a social media button, a web page with error 404, robot issues or Google Analytics Conversion Errors.

Remember search engine downgrades even best of the websites for any errors in codes whether error is caused by you or third party applications.

Not updating old content: Old is Gold, popular saying, right? Gold glitters when taken care. Goldsmith earn decent money from cleaning gold ornaments and remaking. At least in my geography 50% footfall an average in a goldsmith shop happens for repurposing gold items (include others as well). Not focusing on specifics: Your website is open for all world, right? But everyone is not your buyer for many reasons. In spite of your size  your customer base is limited. Know your customers. Make your website customer centric.  Not spending on marketing: A website without marketing is a like a fashion store without showcases. If your website won't show up nobody will bother to get your services. Reach to people as often as you can. Reach in person, reach online. Give presence. Not Investing on UI/UX: Your website should be effortless to browse through for both search robots and humans. And it should be presentable. Nobody want to take a bouncy route to a destination when there are many...

Your business is launched whether small, medium or big. You got first few customers/clients did you ever counted how many customers are walking back to again. If you are not getting repeated customers find the gaps. If you can't find the gaps/loopholes you won't be able to Hack Gaps. Finding gaps and Hack Gaps to retain customers in Offline Business is comparatively easy than in online business. When you know the customers' faces you can interact directly. This is why ecommerce companies counts much on customer reviews. Customer come back or go for many reasons; some could be Product Quality, Service Quality and Behavior. Price might be an issues if someone selling the same product or service for less cost. But price is secondary. Take customers feedback. People come in different package. You cannot expect that everyone will tell fault and gaps in your product or service. This is why companies ask for Star Graded Ratings. Give your customers enough channels to criticize you...

 My First in Hack Gaps: Authority Versus Order So you want to get maximum out of your staff? Give them authority, more authority. When order comes in the form of a gentle request employees feel good, they feel that they are important to company, boss respect them and they take responsibility.  If you want to take your business from 0 to 1, give them more authority. If you want to take your business from 1 to n, order your employees. I am privileged to work with a top notch Indian company in a small capacity. But in a span of 18 years I never received any order to work, there are no orders to work for bunch A or Bunch B of task. When a task comes I have full authority to gain full control on it and perform. For obvious reasons there are enough checks and balances. I do not feel over burdened even when there is massive task to perform, huge team to work in cooperation with each other. Like any other person I equally need to inform what has been done, what I am doing at my desk, ...

 Just I was writing an email to my collogue and the term Hack Gaps suddenly I keyed. So let's Hack Gaps to build that unique brand. My terms are stolen more often so I thought to key down it here to flaunt and say see I am the creator of Hack Gaps. I don't know if anyone before today has said or written or thought that term before I wrote that email.  Whether someone before has thought or not, not my business. But my business is to make optimal use of the term I said, and thought it's nascent for me. However, you have to wait for sometime or may be days before I come up with something may be like how to use hack gaps to build your brand.

Single page website? Not a bad idea. May be you want to sell your products online. You can not write too much as you are too busy in creating and modifying your product. And you need to travel a lot for promotions. Outsourcing could be one of the answer but if your budget is tight then hiring a freelancer may drain your money. And writing regular blog post would be tough. In such a situation one page website can serve the purpose. It will be easy to update especially if its cms based may be like wordpress for example. Its one page website with simple product picture, detailed description, ways to order and customer review. You are not tech savvy and don't want to invest too much on website's geeky things. One page is enough for you. Its doable, but without traffic how will you generate online sales. That is the question right? I said quality traffic that converts and make your bank account numbers increase. After all you mean sales. Its a good idea that you want to focus on you...

Employers in majority like to see heads sunk in computers and machines. Business managers like to see team sweating and shivering. Clients do not fix appointment but they give own time. Perhaps this is story of many under growing companies. On the other hand growing companies work in association with team mates. In undergrowing companies employees are paid for task. In growing companies they are paid for value addition. Human mind is designed to add value when put for a challenge. Normally business managers, ceos, clients do not put a challenge, this is where productivity hampers. You can not open and shut human brain with commands. There requires right enzymes in right amount at right time to add value. Every brain is important. Every mind has some potential. And to dig out that potential you need to sweat. The work environment should not be boring for anyone. There must be enough flexibility for everyone. And you need to add some fun too. Fun is not about taking your employees to hil...
