The internet is something every one of us has fixed and intractable ideas about but what do any of us really know for certain? Do a search on Google for ‘tourist information Knysna’ and you are not going to find Knysna Tourism, Tourism Knysna or Visit Knysna in the first three pages of the results. Why is this? It speaks volumes about people, about Knysna in particular and the fact that despite everything there are still huge opportunities on the Net.

Why do people not see the importance of making sure that their sites can be found by potential clients who are using the web to try and pin them down. Why is it that so many people can’t see the untapped potential that’s waiting out there for anyone who cares to spend an hour or two looking for it?

SEO Services specialises in building quality one way back links to your site and positioning it on the search engines for the key words you want. We also offer deep links, blog posting and internet marketing packages to suit your requirements.

December 09 2008 “Boerie/Toy Bash” @ Mitchell’s Brewery.

Mitchells Brewery — Wed, 26 Nov 2008 06:16:48 +0000

This is a reminder to join us and support the children’s toy initiative and lets put a smile on their faces. The last Boerie Bash of the year is traditionally held at Mitchells Brewery in conjunction with Zoe Morkel of Moves on Wheels.

We have had a discussion with Colin, as we have had no increase in the entry fee for at least three years. He would like to increase this from R 15-00 to R 20-00, and he would like to do this for the December Bash in order to give a little more to the cause. (Any Comments ?)

Anyone want to join us for Coffee ?

Botany — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 04:53:28 +0000

Just to say that we will be holding our next Coffee Group meeting on Friday the 28th November 2008 at ZEST Restaurant in Pledge Square, Knysna at 9:00 a.m.

Everyone is welcome all that I ask is that you mail me to confirm your attendance for seating arrangements at dave@botany.co.za.

What will it cost you ? The price of whatever you have to eat or drink. Normally the restaurant has breakfast meal options from R 25.00 through to R 40.00 with Coffee at around R 8.00 or included in the meal if you choose one of those options.

Looking forward to seeing you there !!!

One a warm sunset bathed evening in Africa

Botany — Sat, 22 Nov 2008 11:22:59 +0000

I felt that I needed to mention what we did last night…now get your mind out of the gutter !!

We met up with two of our special friends, Peter and Dee at their restaurant Fishermans Cabin at 19:00.

The sun was just about on the horizon as we sat down to enjoy a cold Mitchells, Foresters and Bosuns, and glass of wine in the case of the ladies.

The water glowed gold and pink as the sun touched the mountains over Belvedere and the reflections of the masts and yachts in the still waters of the Knysna lagoon made me think just how blessed we are to live in this place called Knysna.

While people are locked behind burglar bars and security gates in complexes to safely enjoy their meals in the “Big Smoke” we can still sit and watch the sunset, smell the sea and hear the gulls, watch the Springtide charters yacht slip through the raised bridge to its mooring without security bars and guards watching us….Thank you for that alone !

We had our drinks and a fantastic meal and chatted about a variety of things away from business and what is going on in the political and financial world and just enjoyed the gift of friendship which also is a special thing that seems to be becoming rare in this age of electronic communication.

I am not a fish person at all but I did enjoy my Calamari and chips and would advise anyone looking for a special night out to try FISHERMANS CABIN, meet up with Nico and their fantastic crew who seem to have the right idea on what service is about and let’s hope Peter is on duty to meet and greet you..he is an absolute character.

Knysna Coffee Group - what is this thing ???

Botany — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 20:51:23 +0000

I would like to let people know what the Coffee Group is about, from my personal point of view.

I am pasting a mail that I sent to Scott Cundill, founder and mastermind behind The Majestic Way and the Coffee Group concept, which I was inspired to write after reading other testimonials that he has from other users throughout the country.

Hi Scott

When you are good you are good…nice testimonials !!!

I am a convert (as you know) and love the Majestic Way and have many who will convert as soon as the see the light.

A coffee Group of over 52 members, Coffee meets are now calling in 28 at a time every second week , filling local restaurants and all participants gleaning information which assists them in their daily battle against the economy and themselves.

We preach to them that “a problem shared is a problem halved” and have seen a marked attitude change in a number of the members just knowing that their problem is not unique to them alone but a common problem amongst all businesses, so they no longer operate in “why are they all picking on me” isolation.

I now have,since starting a bunch of clients onto Majestic journeys, got a loyal support base of clients who get communication from me via Majestic.

We also have a business that has a full order board for stainless product and orders growing daily because of added references from members of the Coffee Group inner circle so wherever you implement it it works.

I too would like to thank you for your amazing business card (Your Book) which I am giving to those unconverted in an attempt to get them to move their buttes and sign up so we can do the Hub thing and get Majestic into Knysna to turn this ol’ town around and back to it’s former glory as the leading tourist town in South Africa.

I too have mentioned that one of the members Geoff Hunt has donated a website he had on mothballs, to the Coffee Group to promote Business Tourism in Knysna. We have to teach a lot of the group that a blog is not something that hangs out of your nose but they are slowly starting to get into it and we will have the Coffee Group and Majestic section up and running within the next week…so watch www.knysnatourism.co.za (our Coffee Group site) for exciting things.

We have been approved as a service provider by SEDA and will initiate our first TV series where we will offer business upliftment programs to 5 businesses in a competetion format - Putting our Heads together to make your business work - all this because of your book first then the Coffee Group and lastly your support through Gen, yourself and Jani without that all would not be possible.

And to think that this all started with a call asking you how your poackage compared to something offered in the USA…what a question, it doesn’t compare IT KICKS BUTTE !!!

Thanks Bud you deserve all the success you get x 1.618

It brings a tear to my eye when I receive messages like this: the first from Fika Ntobongwana and the other from Werner Vivier. They are two business owners who have embraced Majestic and nature’s principles as part of their lives.

Scott

Hi Scott!

It is honestly quite an honour and privilege to be associated with such an awesome and yet simple concept as Majestic. It has been a whirlwind and incredible journey ever since a friend introduced me to Majestic. What a total bliss! We have our Coffee meetings every fortnight, and boy, it feels like all day/week’s work has been done. The information that flows from such interactions is not only invaluable but priceless as well. Why would I enroll for an MBA course if I have real live case studies in our group sessions? I’m not yet where I would like to be but man, am also not where I use to be. Yes, business is all about money but the irony is that; it should be people first and the rest follows. Thanks so much man for such a selfless concept and for sharing it with the world. Let me take this opportunity to congratulate you and wish you all the best in your future endeavours…

Getting to the Root

We were confronted with a problem called a “Blocked Drain”. Trying to sort out this type of problem yourself does not always work, so I call on the services of Waterpoint Plumbing. Sean your service was fantastic and prompt. At least there is one plumber in town that is not too busy to make a plan, and who knows what service mean to both customers and his business. Thank you and KEEP UP THE GOOD SERVICE. We done.

You will definitely receive positive referals from me. Sean can be contacted on 082 566 0300
