Leadership Truth #10 - Great Leaders Make Large Trust Deposits
The level of trust between any two individuals is like a bank account. There is a balance, and we make continual deposits and withdrawals. Great leaders look for the opportunities to make large deposits in the trust account with people.
Building Trust: The Ratchet Effect
I believe that building Trust works like winding up a ratchet. Trust is built by a series of actions or ratchet “clicks” that occur over time. But, like the ratchet used to pull in the sail on a large sailboat, when the pawl holding the ratchet from rotating backward becomes dislodged, the spool can spin back to zero quickly. If a leader has made a thousand deposits in the “Trust Account” with people, they can be wiped out by a single mega withdrawal that happens in a heartbeat. This article gives some more information on this analogy and suggests a method for inserting the pawl back in the teeth once a withdrawal has happened so the bulk of historical trust assets are retained.

4 Easy Steps to Hold Yourself Accountable
Ever wonder why your sales team is not crazy about the word accountability?

Credit Card Processing Accounts
Credit card processing accounts can be quite a daunting task, especially if you are new in this field. This article will give a brief overview of them and their importance to businesses of all sizes.
Credit Card Processing/Merchant Account Basics
Managing business finances is quite a responsibility and those of you who are serious about selling products or services on the web must be able to accept payment from your customers. Although you have at your disposal a variety of payment methods, the most popular one for web based merchants is to accept credit cards. Credit card merchant accounts enable you to accept credit and debit card transactions. These accounts are established by submitting an application to certain Merchant Service Providers or by Independent Sales Offices.

Custom Gift Card Programs for Businesses
Nowadays, some merchant service providers are able to provide your business with the ability to create and sell custom gift cards. These custom gift cards are designed by the business owner and often depict your business logo or some other graphical representation of your business.

Custom gift cards are a relatively easy and affordable way to expand your brand awareness and customer loyalty.

Building Ally Relationships
In today's business environment where markets are becoming flat or shrinking, competition for these key accounts has intensified. Acquisitions, mergers, right-sizing, and other realities of the 90's are created even more obstacles. The hard truth is those long-standing relationships can't be taken for granted, even your best customers. You cannot afford to lose even one key account to maintain profitability in today's business environment. At the same time, you may be dealing with fewer resources. Cost-cutting or cost-containment have led to tighter sales budgets in many organizations. The result is often fewer salespeople and sales managers, fewer sales calls and increased pressure to make every sales opportunity count.

Credit Card Piggybacking
What is Credit Card Piggybacking? Credit card piggybacking is much like the childhood game of being carried around on someone else's back; but instead, you're “carried” on someone else's credit card account.
