How I Chose My Internet Marketing Company
| |
| I researched many opportunities when I went looking for a direct sales and Internet Marketing company to start my new business venture. There are many available, from the traditional Network Marketing and Multi-Level Marketing companies to those companies doing Internet Marketing. I was primarily looking for an internet marketing company that had good training and a strong reputation for success. I have been working over the last several months at transitioning my mindset from being a life-long employee to starting and building my own business, ultimately putting me in control of my own destiny. Many successful people, including Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki, have said that starting a business in Network Marketing is ideal because it will teach you how to build a business, how to sell yourself,sell product, and how to take rejection. |

Financials for Business Owners: More Than A Look In The Rear View Mirror
| |
| Financial reports are the least understood piece of business information for most business owners. Yet everyone expects a business owner to understand his financial reports.

What’s Your Compelling Purpose?
| |
| All of us are in search of a clear and driving purpose for our lives; we want to contribute to something bigger than ourselves. The world of work offers a great opportunity for people to connect with a purpose. The reality is that people care less about working for a company and much more about working for a compelling cause. Without a purpose, our teams are just putting in time. Their minds might be engaged, but their hearts will not be. A team without a purpose is a team without passion. They might achieve short-term results, but they won’t have the heart to go the distance.

Show Me the Money
| |
| Welcome to the end of the year for your business. Many of you have already visited with accounting to determine how to best position 2008 for your tax liability. If you haven’t...get on the stick. Decisions you make today will determine what kind of check you’ll write next April, or, what you can save. 2008 was challenging so I don’t believe many of you are running to the store to buy business assets. Cash is “KING” and you have probably been hoarding cash all year to cover payroll and operating expenses. If you aren’t; than good for you, buy an Escalade-it’s heavy enough to be considered “equipment”. But this articles speaks to the majority of us.

Take 5: Keys to increasing value of a business owner’s estate
| |
| Just as talented top stars are key to the success of any theatrical production, the strength of a company’s top stars – its management team – determines up to 30 percent of its value.
Although most business owners know that sales, target markets, competition and other factors contribute to valuation, many don’t realize the bottom-line value of management teams. Fewer still understand that the most effective way to strengthen their management team – and ultimately achieve their goal of increased estate value – isn’t necessarily through expensive classes, trust-building ropes and ladders courses, or highly paid execs; rather, business owners who learn how to ally human and organizational capital – in other words, people and strategy – are the ones who will see valuation skyrocket.
