What Does Your Writing Say About You?
I was once asked to critique a 100 page business plan for a client that needed to apply for financing to start a multi-million dollar pharmaceutical company. Most bankers would have turned down the applicant for financing because the business plan was full of jargon, written in highly technical language, and hard to understand.

extra quarter and get some trendy healthy tastes bad power bar or you can reach in and grab old comfortable Snickers. Since we've branded a national vending company we already know the answer. Here it is; People say they want to eat healthy and they scream for it but when it comes time to buy they buy unhealthy. Same will apply to Hybr

The Rise Of The Dollar Stores
Sheryl Huenster is a self proclaimed dollar store junkie. The Clifton mother of four makes the trek to various fixed price stores within a ten mile radius of her white clapboard home two or three times per week.“I’m an addict. I admit it. I can’t go more than a week without visiting the stores, unless I’m on vacation. Yo

Have you seen the new commercial and re-branding from Bill Ford and the Ford Motor Company? As you know Ford is in big trouble. So they seem to be changing their positioning and re-Branding. Here's the brilliant re-positioning they came up with (and it pretty much includes everything):

1. American Auto Industry is facing new challenges and fierce competition: Ya think Bill? Maybe the writing has been on the wall for the last 15 years? Maybe Bill Ford was on a golf course somewhere counting his millions. You're too late Mr. Ford! Telling us that you're behind is like leaving the barn door open...we know it.

2. Ford is making new investments in R & D: Wow, Ford, you're blazing a new trail...By the time you catch up to BMW, Audi, Mercedes, Lexus, Toyota, Honda they'll be out with their futuristic space age models that fly which will again put you 20 years behind. Face it Ford, we don't buy your cars because of R & D. We use to buy your cars because they were American made and RELIABLE. Now they're made everywhere and they are not RELIABLE (hmmm, am I hinting at the correct positioning Bill?). Since you can't have the luxury, sports car markets why don't you make your cars more RELIABLE.

3. Hybrids: Here's what I think of Hybrids: It's like when you go to a vending machine and look at the choices. You can pay an extra quarter and get some trendy healthy tastes bad power bar or you can reach in and grab old comfortable Snickers. Since we've branded a national vending company we already know the answer. Here it is; People say they want to eat healthy and they scream for it but when it comes time to buy they buy unhealthy. Same will apply to Hybri

Ways to Invest Money
You don’t have to be a brilliant financial wizard to be successful in mutual funds investing but it does help to know someone who is in the business. I found that there is a lot to consider when dealing with this kind of investments so I really wanted to get some sound advice. The advice led me to a pretty nice portfolio that I

To Niche or Not to Niche
Are you like many enterpreneurs who are afraid to choose a niche for your offerings? I know there can be the fear that you're limiting your business if you narrow your niche down too much, but that simply isn't true. Believe me, it's so much easier and profitable to market to a smaller portion of the market (just think how many

Ford, you're blazing a new trail...By the time you catch up to BMW, Audi, Mercedes, Lexus, Toyota, Honda they'll be out with their futuristic space age models that fly which will again put you 20 years behind. Face it Ford, we don't buy your cars because of R & D. We use to buy your cars because they were American made and RELIABLE. Now they're made everywhere and they are not RELIABLE (hmmm, am I hinting at the correct positioning Bill?). Since you can't have the luxury, sports car markets why don't you make your cars more RELIABLE.

Accounts Receivable Outsourcing
Accounts Receivable factoring is a process that enables a small business to sell off its invoices and other Account Receivables to a financing company. The financing company purchases these invoices at a discounted rate, gives the cash to the business and, when the due date of the invoice arrives, it collects the cash from the

Email Etiquette in the Workplace: The Email Creed
I will give email communication the respect and value it deserves as a quick, acceptable and reliable form of internet communication.I will reply to an email within 24 hours or sooner, even if the reply consists of a few words (i.e. Great, Thanks, Sorry, Yes, No, Call me, etc.).I will use spell check and I will re

4. Working with Volvo to find new safety innovations: Man oh man, why is it that company's think they have to be everything to everyone. People who buy a Volvo buy it for the safety and for nothing else. What a great brand identity and brand image Volvo has. Kudos to Volvo for doing it right. But Ford, are people buying Ford's for the safety aspect? I think not. Why is it anyone buys a Ford? That's your secret weapon. Draw your line in the sand and then build your new Branding!

5. Retake the US roadways and as always innovation is leading the way: This coming from the worst innovative carmaker in the world. Here's what Americans want from Ford. A good, RELIABLE car made in good old USA. Stop trying to be everything to everyone and your re-Branding will pay big dividends (wink, wink).

I wish Bill Ford would call me. I'll set him straight lickedy split.

The benefits that come from out-sourcing MRO catalog management may prove to be more than the cost reductions that first justified it. Multi-site organizations are finding it more advantageous than originally expected: duplicate avoidance; improved turnaround times; and fostering usage of product lines are also showing themselves to also bring value to the company.

Magnetic advertising, by whichever means, is a great way to stay one step ahead of your competition. Do not waste time and money on leaflets or flyers because we all know where they end up!! Do not risk your company advertising being put in the bin when it could be on display all day everyday in someones kitchen or office.
