Member You - Business Ethics 101
Because I do a lot of networking with very small business owners, I meet a lot of dual business owners. These are people, usually women, who own two businesses (or more).As a solopreneur, your resources are limited – that is, time and mo'ney. Managing and marketing one business is already a full-time job, so if your two businesses don't share the same target market, you may struggle – a lot.Sharing the same target market allows you to refer business to yourself, and if your two products/services are related, this is smoother. For example, if you are involved with two different MLMs whose products are both wellness related, you can easily market both to the same people. Or, if you have a service business and also sell products that go hand in hand with your service, you can easily market those two businesses together.
My tainted integrity nagged at me for more than a year before I finally phoned the woman to apologize. I never got that far. Oh, she remembered me all right. So clearly, in fact, that during our brief conversatio

I had one such experience many years ago when I first relocated to Seattle. It's an experience that has stayed with me because it was so profound and because, to this day, I am still both humbled and humiliated by it. I had had business cards printed, and there was an error. I called the owner of the print shop and she agreed to reprint them right away. But I never returned to the printer. My finances were very tight and I'd decided it was "better" to distribute the "bad" ones rather than pay the several hundred dollars I owed her for the new version.

A resume is something that advertises you in front of your future boss; think it as a tool that will enhance your qualities and professional appearance. It is very important to know how to create and use that good tool, what mistakes to avoid when creating one and how to make a good impression.Think about it as a business card, if it’s nice and catchy it will attract the client but if it’s not the client will throw it away; the same thing goes with your resume. You need to add some originality if you want to get noticed.Here are a few tips that will help you have a clean and easy to read resume. When writing about your work experience don’t bore the people who will read the resume with a lot of work history; try to insert only the important jobs if they are a lot and limit yourself to a maximum of 15 years work history

One of the biggest challenges companies are facing is the attraction and retention of top performers. The World Future Society predicted that the greatest test of durability for companies in the next five years would be the ability to get and keep good people. In some industries such as the homebuilding industry there is a phenomenon of merry-go-round employees where employees jump ship within the industry and companies are recycling employees. In the finance industry the big question to a top performer is "Where did you jump from?"One executive management client had left a specific financial institution because a competitor wooed her. Once there, she wasn't as happy as she thought would be and was wooed back again to the original employer. She did this back and forth thing two more times! This is very common in specific indust

This is a scary statistic. Imagine how much more successful your event would be if you could get just half of those "undecided" folks to register. Imagine how much more energy there would be in the room, not to mention how much extra cash would be in your company's bank account.It's NOT an insignificant number.This is why automatic follow-up with registrants who "bail out" before they're done securing their seat is very important.Online registration makes life far easier on both event planners and registrants, but the right system can also increase attendance and decrease cost for your company.If you don't have an automated way of tracking folks who abandon registration forms half way through and following up with them, you're leaving a lot of money on the table. No, it's worse than that. You're burn

Every year, Congress allocates billions of dollars in the form of free grant money to aid major projects that would ultimately benefit communities. Allotment for education grants alone reached an estimated $67 billion annually.Free grant money can be availed of from various government agencies. But this free grant money does not come without a price tag. This may sound ironic but free grant money is not exactly for free in the truest sense of the word. With free grant money come obligations, responsibilities and consequences. These are legally binding too because the use of free grant money entails use of public funds which must be properly accounted for. Free grant money is actually your compensation for accomplishing certain obligations. Free grant money is something you have to work for to attain. Free grant money does
My tainted integrity nagged at me for more than a year before I finally phoned the woman to apologize. I never got that far. Oh, she remembered me all right. So clearly, in fact, that during our brief conversation she recounted the entire ordeal and then concluded by telling me (with not a trace of anger, I might add): "Now I'm going to hang up because I'm not going to do business with you again." Click.
I remember putting the phone back in the cradle and staring at it, mouth agape, for quite some time. The sting of her words was minor compared to the swell of respect and admiration I felt for this woman who so succinctly, so effortlessly, demonstrated who she was and how she stood in her business. She had no reason to prove herself. She had no need for a well-polished mission statement, a finely crafted public relations summary, or a perfectly rehearsed elevator speech. Her actions neatly defined her. When she hung up, we both knew who she was.
Author and educator Benjamin Shield once said, "We vote with our actions." I would add that it is ultimately our intentions behind those actions, not the actions themselves, that announce to the world whether we are courageous or cowardly, whether we are leaders or merely the b
