Q&A Forum is now Advice
Alignable’s Q&A Forum is now called Advice. It’s a place to get help from your peers and industry experts who can help your business. You can also offer your expert advice to others. It’s a great way for small businesses to empower each other, and to boost their reach and credibility.
What's New
For member businesses who use and love the Alignable Q&A Forum, here’s some of what has changed:
-
It’s easier to find the answers you’re looking for. With millions of answers from small business owners, there’s a lot of advice on the topics you need to take your business to the next level.
Type your questions or keywords into the Search bar at the top of the Advice page to find existing posts, or ask a new question, which our team will review and help to distribute to the right businesses to answer it.
-
You have more control over what you see. Customize the questions, answers, and articles in your Feed and in your emailed digest by following topics. Pick from general topics, or click on topic tags (shown below) to visit a more specific topic page and click “Follow”.
-
See questions and answers from businesses like yours. You have a lot of expertise to offer, and there are businesses in your industry and related industries that could learn from your advice, and vice versa.
If the category tag shown on your “Asked by” and “Answered by” feeds does not accurately describe your business, you can update it here.
Using Your Advice Feed

Very nice! Looking forward to trying it out. :)
Thanks for your help and also appreciate the Q and A which gives people more options to see what is going on. As an aritst I appreciate all the help coming my way and will continue to evolve and just keep creating!
How are you going to protect the health of your kids and grandkids when they return to school in a couple of weeks?
Don't hire people that do not represent your core interests. I have consulted functional medicine practitioners for a long time. Hiring individuals that sit at your reception desk eating the latest oversized junk food, avoiding eye contact, and telling me that you are not interested in advanced studied scientific product/service I have to offer, does not reflect well on you.
We have been at 125% of normal since this began and have been able to hire a few people. Most of my office is working from home and we are all more productive (maybe we visit too much!) I'm going crazy stuck at my desk all day, looking for PPE (personal protection equipment) necessary for our jobs. Can't wait for this to be over!
For nearly thirty five years I was a career salesperson. Today I'm now an advisor and advocate for implementing choices. More specially choices in our healthcare and what is perceived as the only option for healing. When it comes to pain and suffering I no longer support "celebrities", I do my research and discover solutions, not false promises. 21st Century Relief is built on integrity, knowledge and understanding the research to help you find solutions without all the harmful side effects.
In the Real Estate business often people ask " Why should I hire you" to sell my house? What would be the best answer to set an agent apart from others besides telling them that providing clients with expertise, market knowledge and promoting their best interest with utmost integrity and service at all times is top priority??
It's great! It really helps.
Aloha, we are an independent full-service general medical practice in Hilo. The definitive diagnosis & non-surgical therapy of chronic pain conditions is our forte. Fibromyalgia is one such condition. Since graduating from Yale Medical School, Dr. Badgley has been publishing his clinical investigations of chronic musculoskeletal disorders at major world-class medical conferences since 2007. His discoveries and non-toxic natural therapies are presented within extensive essays at Twitter “treadreader unroll” library, at Quora.com, & at Healthtap.com. Appointments are available in our beautiful office at “the Villas” near the Hilo lagoons. Mahalo
Advice is a great idea! Thank you, Alignable.
If I can help anyone: my background is 40 years in emergency services - fire and ambulance; I have applied that information to build a business to raise funds for disaster relief, education, and preparedness. Please feel free to ask. I'm incredibly busy, so please be patient for a reply, or call my business number and let me know you need something.
