Unlike old-fashioned enterprises, which often required gigantic sacrifices for the sake of the goal, guerrilla enterprises place the goal of a pleasant journey ahead of the mere notion of sacrifices. |

DOES HOPE FLOAT?

| Charlie Brown, the little neurotic fellow we have all come to know and love is an eternal optimist when it comes to kicking a football. No matter how many times Lucy pulls the ball away he always hopes that the next time she will let him kick it.
In a way we are all like Charlie, no matter how often we hope, regardless of the outcome we always come back to it again and again. Because we have come to know that on those rare occasions we realize our hopes.
There is another reason though for clinging to our hopes, a much more powerful reason in fact

Are You Ready For Franchising?
| |
| Franchising. Just saying the word has an almost soothing quality to it as it rolls off the tongue. As a concept, franchising is suppose to provide business owners a sense of comfort and ease, knowing that behind their new venture are people with years of tried-and-true business experience waiting to share it.
Franchising is a business network that allows people to share a brand identification, a successful method of doing business, and a proven marketing and distribution system.
But franchising isn't for everyone. In fact business owner "wannabees" should think carefully before spending many months and much cash on securing a franchise that either isn't right for them and provides no extra benefits.
This article provides 5 important steps you should consider before purchasing a franchisee.

Boomer Business Start-Up Strategy #7
| |
| We live in an unprecedented litigious society in which many refuse to take responsibility for anything….yet they all want to be rich! That’s like the typical lottery winner, who is broke within 5 years after hitting the jackpot. Even possessing wealth is a responsibility and it requires diligence to keep it. I suggest that this is part of the learned behavior that an aspiring Entrepreneur must adopt. You simply cannot walk away from many problems. You must face the music regardless of the sacrifices involved. I love Covey’s definition of “responsibility.” It is the ability to respond. |
