Julie Starr • December 6, 2022



If you want success in your business, you must ensure that people take you seriously. It’s good having the best things, but people need to have trust in you, and they’ll need to see the vision you see. Successful businesses build relationships with all stakeholders and they keep the bond very tight. It isn’t easy to stay in business if you cannot get people on your side and keep them there. Longevity is all about being able to stick at it and being able to keep relationships positive most of the time.

  If you are a professional business that keeps people in a good mood, you will have much more time in their limelight. The more positive public relations you have and the more professionalism you harbor, the better looking you will be overall. Here are just a few things you can do to show the world that you are a professional place of business.

Keep Mature And Professional When Online 

A lot of what you do in business will be on a digital platform or in the online world. So many different people will be surfing the web and looking up your stuff online, so you have to make sure that you will be there to satisfy any burning needs. You’ll also have to make sure that you are looking the part, too. Make sure that your website is looking good and your conduct on social media platforms is immaculate. Whether you’re creating a business website or simply looking to answer questions, you have to do it in a good manner and in a way that people will remember positively. 

  Ensure Your Workplace Is Kept In Fine Order 

If the workplace is struggling, people will think of you as an amateurish business. By no means do you have to work in a palace, but you have to make sure that things are working well and looking decent. It’s wise to get yourself some commercial plumbing and cleaners to keep things in fine order. If you don’t look after the place, it will show sooner rather than later.

Dress Appropriately Most Days 

This isn’t to belittle anyone for their choice of outfit. This is more that there should be a dress code of professionalism when it comes to the attire you wear most days. You have to make sure that people will take you seriously, so do not leave yourself looking flawed when trying to impress.

Get The Right Security Equipment And Software For All Areas Of The Business

In terms of your security, you have to make sure that you have every angle covered because there will be so many people looking to bring you down or attack you. Get the right software to keep your IT systems safe and secure , and be sure to protect the workplace as a whole because you never know who might want to cause issues.

 

Blockchain for Sustainability: Cutting Through the Hype with Strategic Communication

By Julie Starr • April 28, 2025
As blockchain continues to gain traction in sustainability circles—from tracking carbon credits to improving supply chain transparency—more organizations are exploring how these emerging tools might support their ESG goals. But with innovation comes complexity, and for many stakeholders, blockchain still feels like a black box. That’s where communication becomes essential. At Taiga Company, we work with clients to simplify complex sustainability narratives without oversimplifying the value. While blockchain can offer traceability and transparency, it’s not a silver bullet—and how you talk about these technologies matters just as much as how you use them.

On the other hand, clear, honest messaging about blockchain-enabled sustainability efforts can build trust and differentiate your leadership. Our approach is grounded in materiality and alignment. We help organizations: Translate technical tools like blockchain into plain language that resonates with diverse audiences Connect new technologies to core sustainability strategy Craft credible narratives that evolve alongside innovation Blockchain may be new territory, but strategic communication remains the foundation.

6 Things All Modern Businesses Need in 2025

By Julie Starr • April 22, 2025
If you’re starting your own business, then you know all too well that it’s equally an exciting and overwhelming time. There’s so much to think about, and you want to get it right from day one. But it doesn’t have to be as overwhelming as you might think. Let’s go through everything your new business needs to hit the ground running this year. A Clear Business Plan Before anything else, take the time to figure out your game plan. This doesn’t need to be a long, boring document that you’ll never look at again. Think of it as a simple guide that answers three key questions: Who are you selling to? What are you offering? And how are you going to get noticed? Once you’ve written that down, you can always tweak it as your business grows. From a communications standpoint, clarity on your audience and value proposition also sets the foundation for authentic brand storytelling—something Taiga Company helps clients refine at every stage. Responsible Financial Management Money is one of those things that can make or break a business. The good news is you don’t need a finance degree to get it right. Start with a simple budget. Know how much is coming in, what’s going out, and what you’re setting aside. Think about things like stock, marketing, bills and wages if you’re hiring. Keep it realistic and keep it updated. Doing this from day one will make life much easier later. Reliable Cloud Services In 2025, storing everything on your laptop isn’t really a safe bet. Files go missing, computers break, and you don’t want to lose important stuff. That’s where cloud services come in. They keep your files secure, backed up and easy to access from anywhere. Whether it’s documents, customer info or creative work, having it all saved online gives you peace of mind. And when you're building a business in a digital-first world, having secure, accessible assets also means your team can collaborate more efficiently across channels—essential for strong communications. Flexible Payment Options Most people don’t carry cash anymore, so if you’re only accepting it, you’re going to lose sales. Get yourself a card reader that takes all the usual stuff like debit cards, credit cards, contactless and Apple Pay. The easier you make it for someone to pay you, the more likely they are to buy. Simple as that. A Basic Website Even if you’re not selling online, you still need a website. It doesn’t have to be fancy. Just something that tells people who you are, what you do, and how they can contact you. Think of your site as your digital front door. If someone hears about your business, chances are they’ll look you up online. Make sure what they find actually helps them. A clear website is also one of the most powerful communication tools your business has. We work with clients to ensure their digital presence reflects their story, purpose, and value. A Way to Spread the Word You can’t rely on people just stumbling across your business. You’ve got to put yourself out there. Social media is a great start, but don’t stop there. Think email newsletters , posters in your local area or even just chatting about your work whenever it comes up naturally. The more you talk about your business, the more others will too. Starting a business in 2025 is a big move, but it doesn’t have to feel impossible. Get the basics in place, stay flexible and keep learning. With the right tools and the right message, you can build momentum and create connection. Taiga Company helps growing businesses translate operational essentials into brand trust and long-term impact.
