Lesson #2: Make Yourself Accessible To Your Customers
| |
| Rachael Ray has a secret ingredient to her success, but it is not the cayenne pepper or diced garlic she uses in her recipes. What makes Ray stands out from her peers and the likes of Martha Stewart is that Ray is human. She makes food with regular ingredients found in a normal grocery store and she does not apologize if she goofs up on air, which she does. Ray is just like the rest of her viewers, and it is that down to earth nature that has propelled her to the top. |

Ambition - Good or Bad?

Profitable Online Home Based Business Ideas and the Recession; Why Most People Fail in MLM’s
| |
| In this article I would like to compare the success rates of a profitable online home based business and the average MLM. Most MLM’s don’t want the public to know that around ninety seven percent of individuals coming into their business will fail. Those are not very good statistics. It does not necessarily mean the MLM is a bad company. I believe it has everything to do with the marketing concepts and strategies of the traditional MLM. |

The New Old Timey Customer Service
| |
| Whatever happened to Lee Roy Clark? Mr. Clark was the grocer in my South Georgia hometown. He was my introduction to what it meant to be a "merchant"—courteous and eager to help all who came into his small all-purpose store. The business world is today rediscovering the value of service that permeated Lee Roy Clark's bones. The Lee Roy Clarks of yesteryear get no credit for using methods now attributed to Disney, USAA, Nordstorm, and Ritz-Carlton Hotels. What happened between the early 1950s version of small-town service and its present-day renaissance? How did the business world move so far away from Lee Roy Clark and why is his brand of customer service now so eagerly sought? |

Start Goal Setting Now
| |
| The ability to set goals and then, by following through, achieve them is a very powerful force. The short circuit occurs for most people when they don’t commit to their goals in writing—and if the goal isn’t written down, progress can’t be tracked. And, if progress isn’t tracked, success can’t happen because the pathway to that success is lost. Writing goals down sounds pretty easy: So why don’t more of us do it?

Grocery industry at high risk of theft
| |
| Shoplifting is very common in the grocery stores, especially now that most stores have expanded to carry much more than just your stable grocery items. The combination of higher end consumer items combined with relatively low levels of security make it an ideal target for shoplifters. With tougher economic times it is projected that theft both internal as well as external is expected to dramatically increase. With small profit margins grocery stores need to seriously consider the prevention of shoplifting as a key component in reducing losses. |

Unearthing the truth about reusable fabric grocery bags
| |
| It doesn't take market research and online surveys to know that more and more people want to do their part to help the environment. Most environmentally aware citizens recycle.
So bringing a reusable fabric bag when you grocery shop seems like a no-brainer. You'll keep plastic out of landfills. If fewer bags are made, less energy is spent producing them. And, if the grocery store charges for bags, you'll save money.
But are US consumers embracing the eco-friendly grocery bag option as much as they have embraced the blue box? A recent market research study reveals the truth. |
