Are You a Green Thumb Leader?
Leaders have much in common in gardeners. They both must seed, feed, and weed. Eileen uses a garden as a metaphor to teach us how we must be aware of how the cycles of business affect our leaders and how they can use those cycles to benefit their employees and the bottom line.

The Small Business Owners Path of Least Resistance
Recently, I was sitting having my morning coffee, calmly looking out the window enjoying the thick cluster of oak and pine trees in my back yard. The sun was peeking through the dense leaves, and a stunning red cardinal was perched on a branch. It really felt like heaven and I felt momentarily grateful for the journey that had brought me to that moment.

Seeing Perfection without Judgment
Happiness does not depend on outward things, but on the way we see them. Leo Tolstoy Do we hold a vision of perfection in our life? Taking in an exquisite sunset, gazing at the ocean waves, smelling pine trees in a forest, gives us a feeling or sense of perfection and beauty. We can experience perfection when we watch a child laugh and play, or as we complete an exciting project we worked on. Yet there are many times when perfection seems like a far off dream; something we can't quite grasp. We become caught up in the struggle of a situation, or frustrated because someone else doesn't seem to live up to our expectations. We may criticize our self because we are not attractive enough, funny enough, bright enough, or as resourceful as we think we should be.

How Much Does The Customer Experience Matter?
After watching Jeffrey Pine’s video on authenticity and the power of the experience, I decided to conduct my own personal experiment. My lab was the realm of beauty salons. For the last five years, I’ve gotten my hair cut at a local salon known for its fantastic client experience. Total cost of a haircut there is typically $60. Yesterday, I took my appearance in my hands and headed to the local discount haircut chain where I paid $5.99 (with a coupon) for a trim.

Get the Most Attention from Your Publicity
What Are You Doing With Your Great Publicity? If an article is printed in a newspaper or blog and no one reads it, does it make any noise?

Your Home’s Silent Enemy
What, exactly happened to that door’s finish? To comprehend the answer it is necessary to first understand the principle in place here. Earlier I said that ultraviolet light destroys even your hair and skin. Now, suppose you were to stand under a tree. Would the sunlight have an opportunity to do its’ destructive work on you as long as you remained in the shade? No. The tree served as a protective barrier acting as a shield against the harmful rays of the sun.

Climb That Tree and Increase Your Sales
Most salespeople will tell you today that a lot of the business has gone away. The fruit that was once hanging so low in the tree is gone---picked away by the competition---caused to die away by the economy. In fact, it is these statements that trigger the VICTIM mentality and tend to shut down a good portion of the selling efforts. Listen to me: With very few exceptions, there is still plenty of opportunity (fruit) in the tree. Now is the time, however, that we need to learn (or re-learn) how to climb! Now is the time when the “weeding out” process begins. Now is the time when those who “cannot or will not” are replaced by those who can, will, and DO!
