How To: Check/Update your Web Browser

posted in: How To 0

If you’ve previously been assisted by L2B Customer Support you may have been requested to confirm which Browser you’re using and if it’s up to date. As per our FAQ’s: To access our service you need to have the latest update/version installed for browsers such as Edge, Chrome or Firefox and the appropriate hardware and operating system to support this.

Why do we ask you this?

Firstly, the Browser type helps us to identify if you’re using a supported browser and if there is an issue it helps us identify if it’s an issue specific to a type of browser

Secondly, Browser updates introduce new features, improve performance and fix security vulnerabilities. They are also necessary for improving compatibility, fixing security loopholes, and resolving numerous bugs and other issues. Basically, websites may not work properly if your browser hasn’t been updated so in order to resolve your query it’s best for us to rule this out.

Google Chrome

By default, Google Chrome is set to update itself automatically so the new versions will typically install as and when they’re released. If Chrome downloaded automatic updates while you were using the browser, you’d need to relaunch the browser to finish installing the updates.

  1. Click on the ellipsis at the top-right and select Help > About Google Chrome. Alternatively, you can paste the following address into the URL bar: chrome://settings/help
 
  1. You’ll see the current version of Google Chrome installed on your PC. If you also see a message that reads Chrome is up to date, you already have the latest version. If Chrome finds any available updates, it will automatically install them, and you’ll see a Relaunch button next to it. Click on it to restart the Chrome browser, and you’ll now have the latest version of Chrome.

 

Mozilla Firefox

Just like Chrome, Firefox automatically installs updates as and when they become available. If you have reason to believe you’re not running the latest version, check the current version and see if there are any updates available for Firefox by following the process illustrated below.

  1. Click the hamburger icon at the top right of the browser and select Help > About Firefox.
  1. You’ll see a pop-up window. If a new update is available, Firefox will automatically start downloading the update. Once the updates are installed, you’ll see a button that says Restart to Update Firefox. Click on it to restart Firefox, and you’ll now have the latest version installed. If you see a message that reads Firefox is up to date, you already have the latest version.

Microsoft Edge

  1. Select the horizontal ellipsis at the top right of the Edge browser and select Help and feedback About Microsoft Edge.
  1. Edge will automatically check for software updates, and start downloading them if they’re available. Once it downloads the updates, you’ll need to click on the Restart button. Doing this will restart your internet browser and install the latest updates. If you see a message that reads Microsoft Edge is up to date, you already have the latest version.

If your browser is up to date and you’re still experiencing issues you may need to clear your browser cache, cookies & history.

A Good Cause

posted in: General 0

“It is not how we give but how much love we put into giving” – Mother Teresa.

There is nothing more rewarding than being able to help another being, whether it be a person, an animal or anything else that is close to your heart. In my personal experience, I’ve had the privilege of fostering dogs and it is something that I will cherish forever, probably do for the rest of my life, and always try to encourage others to try. I have never felt a more fufilled, enriched feeling in my life, knowing that I played a small positive part in another’s life.

I believe life is about giving and not taking. Giving has been proven to decrease blood pressure and reduce stress. This makes absolute sense to me, it’s a no-brainer. It feels good right down to your soul when you are able to give. Giving is an absolute selfless act and should never be done wanting a return. Giving is contagious and inspires others to do the same.

There are thousands and thousands of non-profit organisations and charities in South Africa that you can get involved in as an individual or as a company. Donations or volunteering allows companies to take interest in their own communities and can also increase team spirit and morale. If a company chooses to make a corporate donation, workplace values can improve with increased employee involvement and a positive attitude.

Take time to choose the correct organisation that your company would like to donate to. Making contributions to charities that truly mean a lot to your business, whether it be for children in need, advocating to protect the environment, or helping animals in need, is better than just doing it for the sake of making contributions. You might find more than one organization or charity that fits your business, and if you are able to, provide contributions to multiple charities.

There are various benefits of a company supporting a non-profit organisation or a charity:

  • Staff will feel good about working for a company that gives back
  • Customers/clients are more likely to feel good about supporting a company that donates to charity / NPO which could then lead to a more loyal customer base
  • Charitable giving shows that you give back to the community and are in business for more than profit
  • There is more to donating to charity than receiving tax benefits.

There are different ways that a business can donate to charity. Although monetary donations are the most common, there are many other options. Let’s have a look:

  • Volunteering: Instead of giving money, donate your time. Volunteer as a company at a soup kitchen, at an animal shelter, picking up litter on our beautiful beaches and so many more. It is often so much more rewarding giving your time.
  • Volunteer work offers many of the same benefits as a generous monetary gift, and it sends a strong, positive message to customers and your business community.
  • A charity drive: Start a collection, a food drive, a blanket drive, gathering toiletries for a homeless shelter and the list goes on;
  • Donate online: Set up a monthly debit order, which allows you to donate to a charity every month.

Charity teaches the next generation about generosity.

Generosity creates a more compassionate, community-focused world. Showing and enlightening children about the value of generosity and selflessness makes it more likely they will continue to give as they grow older. Teaching children to care about others is an important life lesson. When children see you give whether it be monetary or by volunteering, they will grow up knowing that giving back is such an important and selfless thing to do.

Charity is also important as it raises awareness of issues that many may not even know about and gives companies and individuals the power to do something about them.

In Conclusion, most people want to help those around them. If you are passionate about something, whatever it may be, get involved. We often think about how can someone as small and insignificant as ourselves can make a difference, but if everyone did something small in some way, it will then make an enormous difference. Change happens when people stand together! Charities need your help to continue their selfless initiatives and giving can feel just as good as receiving!

Difference between an Africa Tender & SA Tender

At Leads 2 Business we have two different research Departments in Tenders; South Africa and Africa.

In the Africa Department, we research in 17 different counties. Examples of areas of coverage include Angola, Botswana, Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Eswatini (Swaziland), Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Nigeria, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, Zimbabwe. These tender opportunities are intended for our clients whose primary business focus is in Africa or alternately for those who wish to expand their company’s coverage, serviceable regions and scope of work into Africa.

Tender notices are sourced throughout Africa via our extensive network of newspapers, online resources and personal contacts. Should a tender be in another language we translate it into English as a courtesy for our subscribers.

Key considerations to our research team are content, timeous acquisition of tender information and the critical details that facilitate ease of communication, more specifically: telephone numbers, postal addresses and e-mail addresses of the contacts on the tender.

In Africa, it is common for a non-refundable fee to be charged to obtain Tender Documents. Africa Tenders also require us to specify “Local Time” next to the closing date and/or site inspection because of the time difference and subscribers must also take note of the dialling codes for the specific region.

Below are examples of an SA Tender and an Africa Tender View:

We also offer different services at Leads 2 Business depending on which regions you’d like to receive Leads for (all prices exclude VAT):

Tenders South Africa                            R 1200.00 per month
Tenders Africa                                      R 1443.48 per month
Tenders (South Africa and Africa)         R 2069.57 per month
Projects (South Africa and Africa)         R 2556.52 per month
