Creating Your Vision
As a youngster I often pretended I was the teacher and my friends were students in my class. When my friends didn't want to play I just used my dolls and stuffed animals. In later years I would daydream in class about how I could make the topic easier to understand or the class more fun than the teacher up front. I didn’t know it then but I was creating a vision.
The Power of Action
I was recently invited to be a guest lecturer for an entrepreneur class at the University of Cincinnati. In the question and answer portion of the program, the professor ask me to sum up what I felt was the most important message I could stress to the class. My reply was one word – ACTION.

Is Your Sales Team a Winner or on the Way Out?
Think your sales team is in good shape because your customers rank them either good or very good? Think again. Nearly 80 percent of all supplier deserters rate their previous supplier as "good" to "very good," so the outlook for anything less than world-class excellence is not only disappointing but potentially career threatening. A 15-year study on world-class sales by The HR Chally Group determined that only 21 of 7,300 sales forces evaluated by 80,000 customer decision-makers were categorized as “world-class” by their customers. Benchmarking research within these same 17 "world-class" sales organizations, found that they all shared at least six of the following eight best practices: see article

Many Churches do Not Have the Proper Insurance

Concerns arise for Church Insurance, Religious Organization Insurance, Pastoral Liability and Institutional Insurance, regardless of sect. A lawsuit of any size or nature can cripple a religious organizations existence in exorbitant legal fees.
Uniform Commercial Code - UCC
The Uniform Commercial Code, or UCC, is an excellent tool for business owners to protect themselves with small business laws as both creditors and as debtors. Using UCC filings to your advantage can stretch your credit with both lenders and vendors. Likewise, as a creditor, if you keep active UCC filings on your biggest customers, you can protect your business against a client's nonpayment. For example, if you have a nonpaying customer and bring a lawsuit against them, you may wait months for a judgment; and you might not be adequately compensated even if the lawsuit rules in your favor. As a small business owner, you could have a UCC filing from the beginning and prove the debt.

Action plans are fairly common in business, but probably done wrong as often as not. A lot of people do not understand what an action plan is and often mistake it for a COE or Correction Of Errors, not one of my favorite types of documents. Having a good action plan starts with an understanding of what an action plan is and a great action plan example would be a huge help in this. An action plan is a forward looking document and should be addressed as one. When looking at an action plan example one should take this into account. Action plans prevent business gaffs, keep everyone on task and help smooth out operations. In a way they could be considered a mini business plan, though I tend to look at them as a working business plan.
