Oh, The Mistakes We Make! How we end up moving backwards when we want to move forward.
In business you often run into two types - the fretter and the "I know better." The "I know betters" are career oriented and believe that they're smarter, more focused and more successful than other people. They believe that proven roads will better lead them to success. Fretters worry about their decisions. They're careful, cautious types. And so they go to the experts when they have a decision to make. Unfortunately, the experts and the Titans of industry are the wrong places to look for answers - especially when it comes to innovation and creativity.

Converting Visitors Through Errors and Form Fields
Forms are one of your primary points of contacts with your visitors. While many visitors still use email or even the telephone to contact you or to place an order, the vast majority will contact you first via your web forms. Forms that are broken or improperly implemented cause frustration and can greatly reduce your conversion rate for leads and sales. It is up to your design and development team to test your site's web forms as thoroughly as possible in order to eliminate any errors. While no site can ever be 100% error-free, finding and fixing errors sooner, rather than later, is important to maintaining a usable website. When user and usability errors do occur --and they will-- it is important to employ the right safeguards in order to ensure visitor satisfaction and reduce exit rates.

10 Common Business Planning Errors
I coach entrepreneurs on the business planning process, an exercise that has been instructive as to errors people make when they write their own business plans. Here are 10 common business planning errors and how you can correct them.

Eight Ways NOT To Write a Business Plan
Author Michael D. Jenkins, a CPA and attorney, has some advice to offer on some of the worst errors you should avoid when creating your business plan. Doing so should greatly improve your odds of having your business plan seriously considered and read, and of winning the financing you are seeking to obtain through such a document. The following article, excerpted from his book, "Starting and Operating a Business in California," describes 8 of the most common errors you should avoid when writing your business plan.

Rectification Of Accounting Errors
Every businessman is interested in finding out the true profit and correct financial position of his business at the close of the trading period. The effort of the accountant is to prepare the final accounts in such a fashion which exhibits true picture of the business. Accounts are considered to be authentic proof of true financial position of a concern. But in spite of best efforts there are certain transactions which are omitted to be recorded or entered wrongly in the books. Such errors affect the final accounts. An accountant should, therefore, try to locate such errors and rectify them before the preparation of final accounts.

Proof Read Your Online Writing for Best Results
I'm appalled at how many professionals I see that have misspellings and other errors in their writing when I'm searching the internet. It's important to not only write in a clear and concise manner but to do so without unsightly errors. You will get a better readership and more sales.

Giving Feedback: do the old rules apply?
In today's world it is increasingly clear that respect has to be earned: it is not automatically given. In today's world it is increasingly clear that authority can quickly be lost if the person giving feedback makes a mistake - and the almost instant availability of information by phone or internet makes it almost certain that any such errors will be quickly discovered (and if the person giving feedback isn't respected or hasn't engaged with the people involved then the probability of someone actively seeking out errors is high.)

Protect your data with backup software
Hard drives are marketed as reliable, but the reality tells a different story. It’s only a matter of time until a hard drive crashes and you lose all your important data if you’re not prepared. And even if your hard drive doesn’t fail due to physical errors, virus attacks, software or user errors, even theft threats intervene increasing exponentially the probability of losing your data.

Using Law Practice Management Software To Protect Your Practice From Liability
Malpractice action typically comes from seemingly insignificant mistakes such as typographical or accounting errors, rather than from blatant abuse of the law. Law practice management software reduces the chance of these errors happening and aids in limiting a law firm's liability.
