The Best of Times...The Worst of Times? Part 2
Do you get the impression that everyone is missing the point to our current economic climate (I prefer “climate” to “crisis”). All common sense solutions first identify the “root cause” of the problem. There are plenty of examples in our daily lives. Want to avoid a hangover?...DON’T drink, care to avoid lung cancer?...DON’T smoke, indigestion?...avoid spicy foods. When you go to the doctor seeking help with your cholesterol or blood pressure the doctor will prescribe medicine and a regimen of diet and exercise that will work towards solving the root cause of the problem. Why haven’t we taken the same approach to solving the root cause of our current “climate”?

The giraffe is the largest mammal that gives birth while standing up. I don't speak "giraffe," but I can imagine what the baby giraffe must think when he bounces on the ground from that great height. He just left warm, cushioned quarters in which all his needs, comforts and security were provided. Now he finds himself bouncing off (comparatively speaking) hard, cold, unwelcoming ground.

Marketing Software
I have a friend named John who I met a few years back at a business convention. Due to our similar interest in startups, we hit if off right away.

The Outdoor Billboard Business - Common Landlord Mistakes to Avoid
In the outdoor billboard business, there is a certain amount of trust that goes into a billboard ground lease. The landowner doesn't really know you that well, and the amount you are offering is not that huge. In addition, there is the unwritten assumption that you will not do anything to displease them. Since most billboard ground leases have some form of termination provision, and will definitely require negotiating a renewal in the future, you would think that most billboard owners would take a little more effort to protect their interests. Sadly, however, many don't.

I often ask them to try to think of their business like building a snow man. Everyone knows that when beginning to put the base of the snowman together you need to start with a very small snowball. It may take a few tries to get a good solid snowball – but if the snow is wet enough you can begin to roll it on the ground to collect more snow. And as it grows bigger and bigger – and it begins to peel all the wet snow off the ground, you may look around and notice that the base is not quite as big as you want it – but the only place left that you have not rolled your snowball is on the hill.
