Garber on Business How to get the media exposure you think you deserve
The two questions I have been asked most often over my years as a member of the working media are: (1) "How does a person get into your line of work?" (translation: "How can I get a cushy, do-nothing, get-paid-tubs-of-money job like yours?") and (2) "How can you get a columnist to give you an ad?" (translation: "I don't know the difference between an ad and a write-up, but even though I'm completely ignorant about what your job as a writer entails, I still want you to spend the time to write all about my business, and promote it for me, for free.").

Go Where the Money Is
Fifteen years ago Howard Shenson, editor of The Professional Consultant, spoke at the CAFP Conference in Vancouver. In a session on fee-based planning someone asked about planning on a charitable basis for some prospects, i.e. for those who are unable to pay the fee, but really need a financial plan.

Speaking and Writing
I just came from the Advocis, Vancouver, Annual Professional Development Day, which I attended to introduce my old friend, Joe Dickstein, the second speaker on the one-day program.

Six Characteristics of Leaders
A friend invited me to hear Rudolph Guiliani, the former mayor of New York City, speak at a local college. The list below captures what he spoke about. Guiliani told us that after September 11th he had to make many decisions very quickly. He would make 4 or 5 and then close his eyes and pray, "Please make this right." The first characteristic "Strong Beliefs" speaks to that as does my song title above.

Caution to the winds?
Yes, let’s throw caution to the winds and throw out our old habits with it. I just listened for the first time to my introduction to the Vancouver Dreaming Room recently past, and was I surprised!
Search Engine Optimization for Google, Yahoo and Msn
In this article I will review the similarities and differences between the ranking algorithms of Google, Yahoo and Msn. Google and Yahoo are considerably reasonably close in terms of off-page factors weighting compared to Msn, which is more on the on-page side. Like Google, Yahoo and MSN will discount obviously identical and unnatural looking anchor link text. Since these algos are frequently updated, I will only concentrate on those factors that do not. Otherwise, mayor updates should take place for them to be replaced by other/better methods.
How Am I Doing?
“How am I doing?” was a question former New York City mayor Ed Koch often asked his constituents. In an effort to make sure he was meeting their needs, he surveyed their opinions constantly. Not a bad idea since it not only gave him valuable feedback to consider but also showed everyone that he was open to getting their honest opinions so he can improve his performance. Do you do this with your customers? Chances are that you don’t, or perhaps you do it in a somewhat ineffective manner.
How To Reduce Waste At Shopping Malls
What do you do with outdated seasonal banners at shopping malls? Typically, throw them out. In Vancouver they've taken a greener, much more beneficial path. And I have suggestions for them to go even further...
Small Business Interview Series – Website Design and Development
Understanding the website development process is important for small business owners - a well designed and programmed website will add value to your bottom line by engaging your target audience and generating leads. In this edition of the small business interview series, I speak with Jordan Klassen, Vancouver Web Designer, about website design and strategy.
Emotional Choice
I saw Melissa Hollingsworth give her first public speech after finishing fifth in the ladies skeleton at the winter Olympics in Vancouver.
Leadership Insight: Stump the Dummy
A game for the entire organization to play. And many do play it regularly. Stump the Dummy goes something like this: “How are you doing with that Smith file” says a senior level manager to a mid level manager. Or the company president asks a unit executive “where are we at with the remodeling of the meeting rooms?” Or the mayor asks a department head about the pothole on main street.
