Lesson #5: Every Business Needs its Cheering Bull
“You'll fail at some things – that’s a learning experience that you need so that you can take that on to the next experience,” says Omidyar. “What you learn from those challenges and those failures are what will get you past the next ones…I was the pretty consistent bull and the cheerleader on eBay actually.”

Managing Emotions Under Pressure
I got the following note the other day from a friend: After reading your latest post on Board Room Rules, I started thinking about the pressures that entrepreneurs experience starting, growing and managing start-up companies (whether it's their first company or their fifth.) So I wonder if you as an investor/board member/partner/cheerleader have ever had to counsel your entrepreneurs on this topic and if so what advice did you dispense?
Strategy vs. Fundamentals
Creating companies is hard. Most fail. Overnight success is rare (my favorite “overnight success stories” are the ones that take 10+ years, like iRobot or Harmonix.) While strategy plays a key part in the outcome of an entrepreneurial venture, the fundamentals matter a lot. Take the following parable that I got from a friend recently.
Are You In The Game
Have you ever noticed that it is the people in the stands who supposedly know everything about the game? They give all kinds of advice, but you don't see them actually in the game. It is as if the game exists only for them. Many will say that yes, the game does exist for the fans, for without the fans, where would the game be? I'd like to throw a wrench into that argument and say that, yes the fans are an important part of the game, but without the players, the game wouldn't exist either.
5 Ways to Motivate Your Salespeople
I believe that motivation is very misunderstood. You can't motivate by being a cheerleader, nor can you motivate by reciting somebody else's inspirational quotes. Motivation comes from within and you must find out what your salespeople's internal motivators are. Why are they doing this thing called selling? The other thing that's important to know is that everyone reacts differently to motivation and motivation takes may forms. For instance, perhaps you have some people who respond to one of these methods when trying to get them to perform:
Success in a Box...OR Stuck in a Box?? The POWER of a Coach for Business Success
This article is a MUST READ for any entreprenuer or business owner who has purchased "blue prints", "in a box" systems and participated in highly marketed "inner circles" only to find their own "bottom line" relatively UNchanged.

This article gives you concrete steps for communicating your prosperity intention authentically and effectively. Remember, great results take a strong commitment.
COMMUNICATE YOUR INTENTION
If you have decided to make the changes necessary to build a perfect life for yourself - as you define it - you need to bring that inner intention out into the world. This is often the first obstacle people face in making conscious life changes and can sometimes stop change dead in its tracks. Great results take a strong commitment.

Real Work at Home Jobs: 6 Ways To Stay Motivated
Wanting to start a real work at home job or business is no longer a new concept. Hundreds of people log onto the internet each hour to search how they can work from home.

3 Simple Measurements for Developing Your Sales Team
In addition to looking at the numbers, you can figure out very quickly whether or not a sales person is successful by ranking them on a scale of one to ten... in three key areas…
Support for your Business…Starting at Home
As things have been a bit crazy around our house since starting a home based business, I have been thinking how lucky and blessed that I am to have a husband who is supportive in my business endeavors. I hear time and time again from women that their spouses are not only unsupportive, but in fact they tease, taunt and try to make their wives feel like they are silly to even attempt a business. My heart goes out to these women, and it saddens me to hear stories like this. It is difficult to pursue a dream when the person who is to be your closest friend and supporter acts just the opposite. I sometimes wonder why some spouses act this way, but will never fully understand. I can only assume a variety of reasons: jealousy, fear of change, feelings of neglect.
Five Things You Need to Know Before Deciding to Work at Home
If you have the desire to work from home, like millions of others do, there are a few things you need to realize before making your final decision on whether you decide to move forward in your entrepreneurial endeavor.
What Is A Life Coach
Dear Jane, What is a life coach and how do I know if I need one? What I do as a life coach is help my clients recognize and let go of the sabotaging thoughts and behaviors that have undermined their success, joy, and intimacy. We all have sabotaging thoughts and behaviors; sometimes it takes someone else to help us see them and to believe in us more than we believe in ourselves. So I’m also an energetic cheerleader and true believer. I will often see the possibilities for a client’s future before he or she can. My job is to inspire each person I work with to create an extraordinary vision and to become adept with the tools to create that vision.

The Wage Gap is Alive : It's no Surprise but What Can We Do?
The Census Data tells us that the wage gap between men and women still exists. In particular, men outnumber women in high paying jobs. While 13% of men working full time make $75,000 or more, only 4% of women earn at this level. The difference in wages has been decreasing steadily, but what can we do to make sure that we continue on the right path:
Are you a coach or just a cheerleader?
As quarterback of the San Francisco 49ers, Joe Montana led his team to four Super Bowl victories. He has been elected into the Pro Football Hall of Fame and was named by Sports Illustrated as the greatest football player of the past 50 years.
