Your CUSTOMER Satisfaction Is Tied To Your EMPLOYEE Satisfaction
WHAT DO YOUR CUSTOMERS REALLY THINK ABOUT YOU? We constantly endeavor to achieve 100% CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. We invest our time and money developing surveys and devising ways to improve our rate of return on those surveys. We empower the information gathered to correct individual problems and micromanage our way to solutions. In fact, much of the comments we act upon don’t really reflect upon the way our business is actually being conducted. These knee jerk reactions create more problems than they solve. The most important feedback never makes its way to our “gatherers”. Our BEST customers don’t respond to surveys and the truly DISSATISFIED customers will never give us a second chance.

The Importance of Thinking Big in Business
There is reward and satisfaction in big thinking but it is so easy to forget when you hit the inevitable rough spots in building your dream.....The start up phase of a business is such an obsessive undertaking that we can usually only focus on what is in front of us and the next few weeks ahead.

Managing Your Time 20 More Tips
Every day we hear someone say, “I am so busy. I just don't have enough time to get things done!” And I imagine each of us has fallen into that same feeling from time to time. Are you a good manager of your time? Could you improve upon your use of this limited and precious item called time? If we are honest, the responses are probably “No and Yes.” As part of my business coaching and strategic thinking and planning consulting work, we do work on improving time management of individuals and of teams. We search to find more time by becoming more efficient and much more conscious about how we spend our time. Here are 20 more tips I have found to be helpful in managing one's time.
“Time: Is It Our Enemy or Our Friend? Choosing Time as A Friend, According To Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach”
It is probably safe to say that many, if not most, people struggle with the management of their time. Time is priceless and we each are allotted the same 24 hours each day. However, it seems there is an eternal struggle with the clock and that we are very challenged in trying to mange out time. The sense of pressure and constant urgency at home, at work, and elsewhere in our daily lives leads to us believing that there is simply never enough time. Can we see that it is not time itself, but the use of time that presents us with our conflict? So what can we do? How can we deal with this conflict and choose time as a friend? Succinctly expressed, It would mean that we make peace with time and declare time our friend. Here are seven (7) suggestions from your strategic thinking business coach.

The Gift of Time
Time is one of my favorite subjects. Time is actually the most precious resource we have. Everyone starts their week with the same amount of time. Time is not a discriminator nor does it have any favorites. Time is fair and always ready to serve anyone who understands it. How we use the time we are allotted each day will have a definite impact on our outcomes or results. We are stewards of how we invest our time each day. We must treat time as more precious than money. Being good stewards of time will unlock the key to success in our lives and businesses.
Extreme Self Care - Taking Time For Your Life
If you’re like me, you’re almost always on the go. Whether you’re juggling projects at work, balancing your personal and professional lives, or being there for the people you love, your available time may constantly be stretched to the limits. When was the last time you really took some time just for yourself? I’m not talking about family time, time with friends or sleeping time. I’m talking about time that you set aside to do something for you that you really enjoy.
Beware Time Liabilities
Are you surrounded by Time Liabilities? I define a Time Liability as: a) anything that consumes time unnecessarily or b) anything that causes you to spend time in activities that are less profitable than your most profitable activity. If your filing system causes you to spend extra time doing $9 per hour clerical work, trying to find that important document you misplaced, then you have a Time Liability. If your workspace is so uncomfortable that you have to spend time at a chiropractor every month to correct your spine alignment problems, you definitely have a Time Liability!
Fighting Time!
Do you feel you’re in a constant battle with time? Does time seem to be winning, no matter which technology, process, and system one uses? While the amount of time in a day, week and year remains the same, people are attempting to fit more commitments into the same finite time spans. After many years of observing and working with senior management, I have found a fundamental flaw in how they approach time. This flaw causes significant bottlenecks in their companies. Worse, their poor leadership regarding time strategies causes others to have problems with time.
Time Management & Productivity: Can You Really Manage Time?

Are There Really Enough Hours in the Day to Be An Internet Marketer?
I have been asked time and time again, how much time I spend as an internet marketer. While my answer may be a little bit different than others, they may also have different results. See I started out as a part time marketer while I was still working 70+ hours a week. Wonder when I found the time?
Business, Politics and an Election
There is a revolution underway in our country and I hope that we find people who’ve managed in chaos before and gotten good results. I’ll borrow a couple of lines from the biblical book of Ecclesiastes. “To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven; a time to get, and a time to lose, a time to keep, and a time to cast away.”
