Publicity -- What Do You Do When PR Goes Horribly Wrong?
Have you ever had done something you thought was a really good idea at the time and then it completely backfires on you? What if this happens in a public setting? Well, here are 2 things you can do to turn the situation around and come out even more on top than before.

. . . The Wisdom to Know the Difference
One of the most heart-wrenching moments in life is when you meet a dead-end. One of the most difficult decisions is accepting it for what it is.

Protecting Your Ideas
It's not easy to think about ideas as property, but for some businesses it's vital. Most of us have had an idea for a new product or service only to dismiss, postpone, or neglect it. Sometimes we later find that others had the same idea, but took it to market before we did. By that time, it is too late for us to take advantage of the idea.
Ideas and Inventions What To Do When You Are Inspired
Your idea could be valuable. If you don't do something with it, there's a good chance that someone else will at some point. The expression, "Information is power," especially applies to anyone who wants to profit from an invention or idea. This information will help you as you explore the potential of your invention or idea.
How Good Is Your Big Idea
Every business idea, no matter how good it sounds while bouncing around inside your head, should be put to the test before you invest time and money into its execution. Success lies not in what you think of your idea, but what the buying public will think. Many entrepreneurs find out too late that the public’s opinion of their idea differs greatly from their own.
Re-Organizational Chart
Most small businesses start with a good idea, an individual with a skill set who turns the idea into a revenue producing business, some investors or personal savings, and patience and perseverance. The founding father or mother wore many hats at the beginning and over time handed these hats to individuals who were hired to help as the business grew. Sometimes growth came so quickly that there was a rush to judgement as to how many and who to hire as well as their areas of responsibility. This was a good problem to have because sales were increasing and the dream of growth was coming true.

Creating and Using a Victory Journal
During an interview with Sandi Givens the discussion lead to how women sometimes have a difficult time disassociating themselves from the things that they do. In other words, when a woman presents an idea to someone, and the idea is rejected or she's told it's not a very good idea; many women find it difficult to remember that it was the idea itself that was rejected and not the "woman".

NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS IN SEPTEMBER
Forget about New Years Resolutions in January, they don’t work! You’re wasting your time! September is the best time to set New Year’s Resolutions. Crazy idea, perhaps you disagree? Then answer this question; “why is it that most people who make them and seem quite serious about it, never really follow through and keep them?” A very good question don’t you think. I have addressed this issue before but on both occasions it was in January. Maybe now is a better time to take a different tact and initiate some thought, discussion and/or action around the idea.

Drinking My Own Kool Aid
It's always a good idea to take time to review how you're doing, and invest in improving yourself.
Product/Service Acceptance, Success Beyond Statistics
The minute something new, exciting is introduced a few folks say it's going to take over the world in less than five years. After the second year of talking about, writing about the same thing the sucka only has 10% (or less) of the market. Obviously it's a dog, a miserable failure, a stupid idea the guys/gals never should have bothered to think about. What a dumb waste of your time, their money. So we scan the horizons for the next great thing and BAM!!! here it comes over the hill. Whooppee!!! Thank GAWD!!!! In less than five years.... Just doesn't work that way because: 1) mere mortals are slow and it takes them time to understand what it is, why they need/want it and 2) haven't even made good use of the last great thing. Wine, beer, heck good cheese need to age...so do good ideas.

Should You Sell During the Holidays?
This time of year we get this question a lot: "Is it a good idea to run promotions or do launches or even just sell during the holidays?" The truth is, anytime is good when you can connect what you're doing to what people are really concerned about.

What’s in Your Files? Putting Good Ideas to Use Can Help Your Creative Juice
Every couple of months I look at my idea and information files because I want to actually use the information I've put aside. I'm almost paperless, so my dual purpose here is to use it or lose it. If I don't at least look at it from time to time, then I won't know whether or not now is the time to be putting some of those great ideas to work. These are the sparks for future action and creativity. I call it ‘information inspiration.' Here are three action steps you can take to put your idea files to good use:
