The Big Picture   
  by Daniel Comp on Saturday, January 14, 2012

Changing the path of a business or the course of a big ship can be challenging when all resources and attention are occupied with simply keeping things calm and 'normal'. Big ideas rarely sneak up on us. Rather they are waiting for our 'attention' through 'intention'. If you 'wish' something would change, then I suggest looking into the following concepts to imagine their application to your venture, business or journey.

I did. They initiated our 7series, and changed our capacity and greatly expanded our outcomes.

A closer look:

Long Tail

Thanks to Chris Anderson for this brilliant observation, we practice business on the 'long tail'; "businesses successfully applying this strategy allow them to realize significant profit out of selling small volumes of hard-to-find items to many customers instead of only selling large volumes of a reduced number of popular items"

Open Source + Cloud

Working with hundreds of developers around the world, we mash the best of open-source solutions that have been produced by the brightest programmers into a simple and extremely cost effective system which produces excellent value and very strong results for the occupants. Serving from 'cloud' based networks allows for on-demand expansion and optimized delivery .

Speculative not Custom
We used to build individual websites and single applications. We're now modeling successful developers like those seen in real estate and technology networks based on efficient replication and management. This removes the obstacles of individual development, capital outlay and time of production.

Compounding Residual

One of the rewards of bringing success to teams is the creation of a diverse residual income which is prolonged through a network based on collaboration and community.

Webs not Websites

We built hundreds of custom websites and intelligent internet software for special customers for fourteen years - until we chose to start our own 'speculative' development initiative building website clusters (webs) for ourselves. This means a huge opportunity is available for your enterprise or objective by simply 'connecting the dots' with us.

Integrative

The greatest challenge to an entrepreneur is the temptation to "go it alone". Sustainability and adaptation is best found in teams that build on each others strengths with peer-to-peer support and learning. You don't have that when you're flying solo. That's why we've created MOMtrepreneurs and MENtrepreneurs, written Entrepreneurial Schizophrenia and produced the Enterprising Cycle. In addition, we integrate social media and mobile device delivery.

the concept of the long trail has always been intriguing to me. And I must admit it is difficult to move away from choosing website names and keywords based on the highest number of hits for a specific keyword. Then jumping through the hoops to get that keyword in the number one spot for that keyword the search engines.

Building Web clusters is another intriguing idea. Today websites that are typically connected with a few links. Taking websites that are out on the long tail and connecting them with the unified purpose could possibly create what we all want in a website and that's "traffic".
