Surviving Public Speaking - Top 10 Tips
All entrepreneurs have to do it, so there is no sense running or hiding from public speaking. Embrace your opportunity to share your company vision to others, even if it is in front of a large group and the hot spotlight is on you! I hope these tips, which I use myself, will help you be more comfortable with public speaking and making speeches in general.

Making the most of Up Selling & Cross Selling
Do you sell one thing and one thing only? Probably not. I suspect your business has a range of things it can offer. And I suspect that many of these things can be integrated together to make an end-to-end solution or various combinations that lead to much larger sales. If this is the case, then how well are you selling in the size and scope of your business offerings? Too many times sales people get fixated on the immediate sale in front of them not really seeing the potential of that sale now or into the future. If they would only ask the right questions and get a bigger perspective to work from they might get more and bigger sales for less effort.
Do You Feel Anxiety When Speaking?
There are hundreds and hundreds of articles around the Internet helping you to overcome the fear of Public Speaking. You may have seen some. And the vast majority help you overcome the fear of getting onto the platform, standing up and actually starting to speak.
Is Radio Advertising Right For You?
Is the radio the right medium for you to market your business? It all depends. Many businesses have blossomed from it and others have been burnt badly.

Is Your Self-Image Working For You?
Life sometimes throws us curve balls that we have to deal with-these are the "have-tos." Life becomes boring and difficult when you're only doing the things you have to do to get where you don't want to be. If your Core Desire is to speak confidently in public, how do you acquire this ability? First, you've got to love what you are talking about, or at least have a great deal of interest in it. Knowledge is important, but it's not as critical. Another valuable way to exude a confident aura when speaking in public is to take your mind off your performance and put it on the gift in the message you are giving. If you believe in your message, have strong feelings about it, and are not focusing on how people might judge your performance, you will do just fine.

Defamation on the Internet

This feeling of anonymity sometimes leads people to post false statements in an effort to discredit another individual or harm their reputation. These people are often surprised when they learn they have been sued for defamation for the statements they made on the Internet. The questions and answers below explain the basics of defamation and the specific issues that arise with defamation on the Internet.

Business Accountability Teams - they go to BAT for you
How hard it is sometimes to stay focused; to put in that extra effort to achieve the business results we want. How easy it is to be wooed by the warm day to play a round of golf when we should be making sales calls. How easy it is to rationalize that taking the afternoon off will be made up for next week. This is especially true when there is no one to hold us accountable; ah the freedoms of business ownership!
Conflict Management
It doesn’t matter what business you’re in or how successfully you think you manage your employees. I guarantee you that at some point in your professional career, you’re going to experience conflict. It might not directly involve you, but if it involves anyone in your company, it’s going to impact you sooner or later. That is why every entrepreneur needs to learn conflict management – and sooner rather than later.

Tips For Brainstorming
Brainstorming is one of many creative problem solving techniques. While you can use any size group, we believe it works best when done in a facilitated group of 5-10 people. The more diverse the group the more diverse the input. The group members don't need to be experts in your field. In fact, they don't need to know anything about the problem topic at all! The following steps I use in my Many Good Ideas Brainstorming Seminars:
How to Build a Mastermind Group
A Mastermind group is a supportive group of like-minded people who collectively brainstorm ideas, strategies, techniques and concepts to help people move forward in their business/life and become 'unstuck'.

I came across the concept of the mastermind group after reading Napoleon Hill’s book Think and Grow Rich. According to Hill, the mastermind group is formed when two or more minds work actively together in perfect harmony toward a common definite object. Hill noted that every successful person in history had a mastermind group that helped him achieve greatness. No one mind is ever complete in itself, so you need to have a mastermind group to help you achieve those objectives.

Process Management Improves the Horizontal Flow
A group of sailors were out in an old boat. The boat hit a rock and sprung a slow leak. The group began to fight over whose fault it was that they hit the rock. Then they argued over whose responsibility it was to fix the hole. Those on the starboard side shouted that those on the port side, where the hole was, should be responsible for fixing it. All the while, the boat filled with water and floundered in the increasing heavy seas. As the shouting and finger pointing grew, a large wave swamped the boat. Everyone drowned at sea.
