Is it Full Ahead - or Watch out for Rocks?

In our first 2010 edition of the MyCorporateDoctor enewsletter, we're offering you indepth business information that you probably wouldn't find elsewhere. Unless, that is, you happen to have plenty of time to scour the miriad available sources - and then analyse correctly what is being said. By applying our energy and skills to the task, The Cure aims to provide ongoing support to subscribers and potential subscribers of our Financial Diagnostics Reports and Corporate Doctor services.

As we return from the seasonal break, the local and global economies are giving us mixed signals about what to expect in business. Australia is looking good, but no-one should imagine our economy can be adequately insulated from what is happening in the USA, China and the rest of the world.

While CEOs should devote their time and energy to growing the businesses they own or manage, they also have a responsibility to address financial difficulties before these turn into serious problems. Particularly in today's uncertain times, financial problems that go unresolved can rapidly escalate into a business-threatening crisis. That is why we've chosen this topic for our keynote article.

If you wish to receive our emails, you need do nothing. If The Cure is not for you, simply use the Unsubscribe link below at any time and you will be deleted from our mailouts.

Now it's MCD over the airwaves

As our client list grows, MyCorporateDoctor.com extends its marketing into the medium of radio. River 949, a station covering the wider Toowoomba-to-Brisbane corridor, started playing MCD's first 30-second radio commercial in late January. River claims 43000 listeners every 15 minutes and our timeslots included breakfast, afternoon and drive time. Listen to the ad. by clicking this link. It's an example of MCD in a nutshell.

Some sobering sentences about the US of A

The U.S. financial system experienced a near-total meltdown in late 2008. Now, most people seem to think that the recession America has just been through is almost over and that they will be experiencing another time of economic growth and prosperity very shortly. But our research shows that is not the case. The reality is that America is being sucked into an economic black hole from which the Australian economy will never fully recover either.

Because you CAN handle the truth - is a concise roundup of the major 'unfiltered' business news, mainly from America, during January.

Predictions, press coverage & pointers to the economy

If reading the previous section had you a little unsettled, our predictions for 2010 have a definite upside as well as a downside:

Top predictions of 2010 - is a distillation of our voluminous ongoing research into concise, readily accessible form. By tracking 300 separately defined domestic and international trend categories including business, economics, politics, social developments, education, health, science, technology, philosophy, the arts and entertainment, we establish connections that others may fail to see or misinterpret. And we are 'putting our money where our mouth is':

• We present Managing Partner Richard Wood's personal investment strategy, based on his conclusions.
• You'll also find a link to a comprehensive listing of all our past predictions (including social, economic, business, consumer and geopolitical trends) and when they came to pass.

We work to cut through the confusion of information overload and zero in on the trends that will shape the future. As a part of this continuing effort Richard Wood was in the news himself during 2009. Click here to check out what he had to say on a range of subjects close to his heart.

Last but not least, we offer you Economic summary in graphs - a number of Australian real estate and economic graphs for data released in January.
