In fact, your business can still grow.

Your Style Can Predict If Franchise Ownership is Right For You
One way to become a business owner is through franchising and the franchise industry is at an all-time high. There are more franchised businesses than you can possibly imagine. A recent survey found almost 500 concepts in fast food alone, a category that represents only 20% of U.S. franchises. The IFA Educational Foundation’s Economic Impact of Franchised Businesses study indicates there were three quarters of a million franchised businesses in 2001.* To see if franchising could be right for you, compare your previous business experience, your motivations and your current situation to the following examples. * IFA Educational Foundation-FRANdata study released August 2006

Using New Event Marketing to Promote Your Small Business
Organizing an educational event such as a seminar or conference is a great way to get out of the office and network with prospective clients and promote your small business within your community. However, a traditional event marketing format presents some challenges to small business owners, including the costs of putting on an event, creating buzz ("Not another breakfast speaker series"), being able to offer attendees value, etc. So how can your small business take advantage of the benefits of educational event marketing while minimizing some of the risks and pressures associated with putting on a successful seminar or conference?

Teleseminars - One of the Best Ways to Build Your Business and Your Revenues
Holding live workshops and seminars are a good way to build a business. However due to current economic trends, the traditional methods of holding and conducting workshops make it very difficult to execute and get participation. In addition, the costs involved in getting a venue, audio visual aids and providing refreshments for the participants make it quite expensive and there are many factors that could prevent the event from being successful and profitable.

Online Training - Does it Work for Smaller Businesses?
Large corporations can afford to send employees to expensive external training courses or to bring trainers in-house for workshops, seminars and other educational programs. But how can small businesses make sure that their employees have similar opportunities to learn and develop their skills? The answer – more small businesses are turning to online learning for high quality learning for much less money. The primary benefit of online learning for small business is cost savings. Let’s say you wanted to become a Microsoft-certified systems engineer, which requires a multi-day course. That would run about $2,000 per person. But online, you could get the same instruction for under $200 per person. When you factor in the cost of airfare, hotel, and other incidental costs, the savings can be even more dramatic.
Successful Change and Improvement Needs Balanced Improvement Planning

The company clearly had problems with sagging morale and customer service, rising costs from inefficient processes and quality problems, and low innovation levels.
