Member You - Managers: Is PR Crucial to Your Success?
Business Angles and Sportsbetting
Sports betting, like any investment, carries risks and rewards. The parallels between betting on sports and playing the stock market are many. In fact, I would argue that they are exactly the same for all intents and purposes.Placing a bet on a team and hoping for a win is no different than buying a particular stock and hoping for a rise in price. There are few differences between sportsbooks and brokerage firms. Both are middlemen who charge you a fee for their services. Both the sports bettor and the stock player are after a return on their investment (profit).If a person buys a stock and it falls instead of rises in price, he loses money, or has a negative return on investment. If a sports bettor bets a team to win and that team loses, he also has a negative return on investment.Calculating a return on investment is simple. D

Finding Grant Money That Is Right For Your Projects
When grant-seeking organizations conduct a diligent search to find funds for their programs, hundreds of possibilities are likely to arise. If using a resource like the Foundation Center database, there will be detailed information about foundations’ and corporate funders’ priorities, past grant awardees, application criteria, and funding limitations.Pay close attention to this information. Searching for the appropriate funding source for your programs and projects is a skill right up there with effective writing, when it comes to winning grant money.Why is the search so important?Many fledgling nonprofits envision multimillionaires waiting to dole out thousands and millions of dollars to every worthy 501(c)(3) organization. They assume a well-written grant proposal will speak for itself and for their needs. How many of us have

Good Technology Starts With Specific Goals
New technology is hitting the market and existing technology is being refurbished and applied to the legal industry every day. Whether you need to reduce HR expenses, increase collections or stimulate client generation, chances are some form of technology will play a big part in any firm initiative.Some basic considerations when evaluating technology options include:Security/Confidentiality ~ If a website or representative does not mention it, move along!End User Friendliness ~ Implementation frustrations and training costs are reduced when end user instructions are clear. Look for more than just an on line FAQ. A picture is worth a thousand words, so manuals or documents with screenshots work best. Of course, a toll free customer support number is even better! Accessibility ~ Today's workers need 24/7 access t

Parking Business and Charity Fundraising
In the parking business we are all aware of the need to fill up as many parking stalls as possible for the maximum price point. There are many ways to do this. One of the most inexpensive ways is through free publicity. A car wash fundraiser on or in your garage during a slow time of the week may just be that opportunity.If Sunday is your facility's slowest day, a car wash for a church or youth group might be an idea. The radio station will play the spots five times a day for a week. Free airtime and all you have to do is be a Good Samaritan. If Saturday is a slow day, you can have a local high school group hold a fundraiser. High school bands often have annual budgets in excess of $40,000. They usually have 100+ kids in the band and that means 1.5 parents per kid, who are all your potential customers. Sound good so far? It gets bett
