    Islam in the Workplace
    Suggested practice for HR personnelMuslims now form one of the largest religious groups in the UK.

    I have a problem. Perhaps you do too.

    Ever since the major virus attacks of recent months, I've had difficulty getting Getting Attention through to readers' email boxes. Overeager spam (unsolicited bulk email) filters are now drop kicking legitimate email that includes elements that the filter thinks signal spam.

    My e-news service provider reports more bounces (readers' email addresses returned to me after five delivery attempts) than ever before. Even worse, subscribers have complained that they aren't receiving my e-newsletter and wonder if I'm still publishing. Now that's a problem.

    You use your e-news and email campaigns to spearhead fundraising campaigns or drive recipients to register for an upcoming program, and you count on reaching those readers. But beware. Filters are having an adverse impact on your organization's e-newsletter and email campaign distribution, whether you know it or not. Since your use of e-news and email plays a key role in your fundraising, advocacy and other campaigns, getting email delivery right is critical.

    HOW MUCH GOOD EMAIL IS FILTERED AND WHY?

    Recent research by EmailSherpa concludes that at least 4% of opt-in permission email (to readers who have consented to receive that e-newsletter) is filtered, even if it's in relatively trouble-free text format. Assurance Systems reports that 17% of all opt-in email is not delivered -- that's one out of six emails. My own experience is that 13% of Getting Attention readers were bounced in the last year.

    Online Business – How to Get Started Online for Less than $200, GuaranteedThere are so many scams in the online business world that require hundreds of dollars upfront, and continual investment. Others promise $30 upfront and make millions on the backend. Can you really believe either of those scenarios, or trust them?

I truly believe that the only person that really makes money in a lot of the schemes online, is the one at the top. So why not create your own system, be on the top, and instead of recruiting slaves to be a part of your system, simply sell some

    Change Management: Put the M Back in M & A
    In a true merger, no one culture should win. Having one side win over the other can be the kiss of death to the deal. Unfortunately, more often than not, what we have experienced in the merger frenzy are acquisitions disguised as mergers. There is typically an acquirer and an acquiree, and the lead company's culture typically dominates. If you are the acquiring company in a deal and you are not interested in blending cultures, we hope you will at least respect your partner's culture. Respectfulness helps the "merged" employees see what you as the lead company have to offer in the way of stru

    Community Involvement and Franchising
    Every small business knows that you participate in the community, then the community will shop in your store. In a franchise business, the franchisor should also encourage, if not require a franchise outlet to do community service and stay involved with the community that will support them.It is for this reason that in my company, we required as per the franchise agreement, as well as the confidential operations manual, that each franchisee perform fund-raising events for local charities. It may seem all odd that a franchise or would have required as of their franchises, but I don't see it that way. I wanted to be known up front in prior to the commencement

    Five Reasons You Should Be Blogging for Business Right Now
    Although web-logs (called blogs) started out as personal online diaries, today’s blogger can be anyone from a stay at-home-mom to a corporate mogul. And even the stay-at-home mom is likely to be blogging for business, not simply sharing her personal life with the online world.If you're a small business owner, here are five reasons you should be blogging for business right now:1. Creating an online presence is easy with a blog. Today, everyone expects anyone with a serious business to be visible online.

    Moreover, Assurance Systems claims that up to 75% of emailers identified as spammers are incorrectly targeted as such. Every spam filter company, as well as AOL, acknowledges that some of the email they block as junk is actually legitimate email that's been stopped by mistake.

    Particularly challenging is the fact that a filter can be put into place in any or all of three places in your e-newsletter's or email campaign's path to readers' in-boxes -- by the ISP (Internet Service Provider), the reader's organization or company, or the reader himself. In many cases, the reader is unaware of the filter. If you don't take the steps below, filters may block your organization's emails from reaching a huge portion of your list.

    Despite these challenges, e-newsletters and email campaigns remain essential tools for nonprofit communicators. These tools enable you to reach your audiences (or selected segments) in a timely and cost-effective way. You can also track results to some degree. Although filtering is a hurdle at the moment, I am hopeful that this problem will subside. In the interim, take the steps outlined below to increase your delivery success rate.
