Small Business Growth: Recession Rescue Strategies
| |
| This week alone, I have heard from two business owners going "under"... literally closing their doors and, of course, blaming the economy. I must say that both of these companies started out with overwhelming debt, and neither had shown a month of profit since opening their doors. They were both open BEFORE the "recession" hit. Both invested heavily in traditional marketing. Both inquired about hiring a business coach, but never felt it worth the investment. THIS is the Darwinian-like "thinning of the herd" that we will continue to observe in "tough times". But you don't have to be one of those eliminated... So, what can you do NOW to rescue your own business today? |

Should You Buy a Food Franchise?
| |
| If you’re thinking about buying a franchise, chances are you’ve considered one of any number of food franchises, and for good reason. Fast food franchises have changed the way America eats and are among the oldest and biggest franchises in the U.S.
But are you aware that food franchises can also be among the most challenging businesses to run? Before you invest too much time looking at which food franchise to buy, take time to weigh the advantages and disadvantages of owning a food franchise to determine if you have what it takes to be successful in this business. |

New Opportunity from a Seasoned Industry
| |
| The most popular Franchises out there are Food Service businesses. From fast food, casual dining to upscale restaurants, most people looking for a business will almost always look at Food. Now food is a tough business (take it from someone who has been in the business). Long hours, high employee turnover, recession, competition are some of the factors that make the Food business tough, and are some of the factors why Food industry has a high rate of failure. Having said all that, I want to introduce you to a company that does not deal with most of these problems, and is in an Industry that is virtually recession proof and provides a service that every family in the United States and really the world needs and uses. |

Managing Perpetual Workplace Changes
| |
| It doesn't matter whether you are an old timer or an amateur in what you do. All that matters in our jungle is to apply the lion-gazelle concept of survival. "Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion, or it will die. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn't matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle; when the sun comes up, you'd better be running."

HACCP - A State of the Art Approach to Food Safety
| |
| A number of U.S. food companies already use the system in their manufacturing processes, and it is in use in other countries, including Canada. The ISO body has published the new system as Food safety management system as ISO 22000: 2005 as Food safety management system - requirements, which cover all FDA requirements through various clauses of ISO 22000. New challenges to the U.S. food supply have prompted FDA to consider adopting a HACCP-based food safety system on a wider basis. One of the most important challenges is the increasing number of new food pathogens. HACCP focuses on identifying and preventing hazards from contaminating food. |

Exploring Inner Space
| |
| An ass found a lion's skin, and dressed himself up in it. Then he went about frightening every one he met, for they all took him to be a lion, men and beasts alike, and took to their heels when they saw him coming. Elated by the success of his trick, he loudly brayed in triumph. The fox heard him, and recognized him at once for the ass he was, and said to him, "Oho, my friend, it's you, is it? I, too, should have been afraid if I hadn't hear your voice." |

That dog won’t hunt
| |
| Here we are at the end of March already. I was talking with a friend the other day about an old farmer’s adage we used to anticipate in March regarding the weather: “In like a lamb, out like a lion.” Or “In like a lion, out like a lamb.” The expectation was that if we had harsh winter weather at the beginning of March we would have mild weather at the end – and vice versa. I have no idea why that is expected but it reminds me of all the little clichés that we accept as reality. As farmers we also used to cite, “Red in the morning, sailors warning; red at night, sailors delight.” |
