Celebrate Your Victories
| |
| Q109 is over. The numbers are starting to roll in. After all the gloom and doom at the end of 2008, I’m very pleased with the performance of most of the companies in our portfolio.

Why Businesses Succeed
| |
| Other business authors discuss why businesses fail. I prefer to focus on the positive: businesses that thrive and why they become successful. There has been so much negative news over the years about job loss in NEO that I wanted to find out first hand the true story. I talked with nearly 50 small successful Northeast Ohio companies and I found out things were not quite as bad as the news portrayed. |

Staying Current and Adjusting in the Retail Business
| |
| In the not too long ago past there were three main sources of live news; TV, newspaper and the radio. This older format allowed people to either look at or not look at what was being presented by the media.
Nowadays, there are countless sources of live news, thanks to the Internet. So, with so many sources of news, I select only the subject matter I am interested in and sources that I find to be accurate; hence "selectively".
It is obvious that we are in an economic crisis, which is old news. But it wasn't old news back in September or October of 2008. I knew that the economy was being steered into a storm, like nothing I had ever seen before. |

That means you have cleaned out your closets, weeded your garden, upgraded your work force and created a team of employees that are the best of the best. |

Three secrets of how to use press releases to promote your business or web site.
| |
| News releases are no longer for the news. Press releases and news announcements now serve many different functions in addition to being source material for journalists to write about.

You don't need big news - just a good hook.
Whether or not you use a public relations agency or do it yourself, here are three good reasons why you should try to write and distribute at least one press release every month.

Don't Become a Digital Dinosaur
