DO YOU HAVE A MARKETING PLAN OR MARKETING MESS?
| |
| Marketing plans are in short supply. Organizations spend big budget dollars on web sites, brochures, logos, DVD’s, sales materials and every marketing tool under the sun. And that doesn’t include marketing activities like conferences, trade shows, press events, meetings and seminars. But when it comes to actually planning for all that activity, it’s a different story.
Most people think marketing plans are a good idea – they just aren’t sure how to get there. We also suspect there are a fair number of you who secretly wonder if you really need one. The truth is you can’t afford not to have a plan. It can – and should – be straightforward, results-oriented and easy to manage.

Certified Lender Programs
| |
| The Certified Lenders Program (CLP) is designed to provide expeditious service on loan applications received from lenders who have a successful SBA lending track record and a thorough understanding of SBA policies and procedures. CLP lenders are expected to perform a complete analysis of the application and, in return, SBA promises a fast loan decision. SBA reviews the lender's credit analysis rather than conducts a second analysis. SBA still makes the final credit and eligibility decision but, by completing a credit review instead of an independently conducting analysis, SBA strives for 3-day (working days) turn around in arriving at its decision. |

Market Analysis Template
| |
| When looking into a new business proposition or else brainstorming for your current market a market analysis template can be used rather effectively. What this does is break down your market segment into clearly defining traits that your market has to help you figure out how to better serve you customers.
There are more than a few market analysis templates floating around for free, a simple web search will net you more than you would ever use. However, an understanding of the components that make up a market analysis template and making sure you have everything you need in place can be very helpful. I just so happen to have a few ideas on that. |

Even highly competent researchers are subject to these problems. This overview examines the Soyer-Hogarth findings in light of prior research on illusions associated with regression analysis. It also summarizes solutions that have been proposed over the past century. These solutions would enhance the value of regression analysis.
