As consultants, why do you think that Nadine Coyle's solo career has been a flop to date?

She tried launch a solo career when her popularity was entering the Decline stage of its Life Cycle. Band's like G Aloud appeal to the 11-17 yr-old age group of the moment, and as these grow up, alas, their fan base fades away.Nadine Coyle is a Cash Cow at best, quickly becoming a Dog. No unique selling points, not even as talented and attractive as many of her competitors, and trying to launch a career at a time when teenagers are beginning to appreciate real music (I'm thinking about the large teenage fan base for groups like Mumford & Sons).Advice to Nadine:Cause some commotion in national press, based on your personal life: relationships, drug problem, pose naked for FHM, reveal you were once a dude, etc. Keep your name in the press until you find a good song. Launch one more single. Go become a judge on Northern Ireland's Got Talent, or something of the like.

she failed to adequately socialize her intended offering before going public with it - if she'd taken me aside for a 1:1 beforehand and really driven it home hard, I'd have been more receptive..

ABC,Superb analysis and strong recommendations! The only issue is that the entire office is now wondering why my laptop is covered in soup.EC

She simply doesn't have any talent. At all.

Thanks EC. It's a pity you can't usually give clients such open, heartfelt and actionable advice. Political correctness is stopping us from achieving so much as a society.rc, if Nadine took me aside for a 1-on-1, with a view to driving things home hard, I don't think she'd be the one doing it.

Mumford and Sons? Real music.....arf arf

Cheryl, I'm sure your songs are a lot better.

Sorry but who is Nadine Coyles? - BTW i am serious I've no idea

Obviously you have never heard of internet search engines either (note the effort not be preferential towards any one provider). You really are behind the times.
