Mortgages for Self Employed – Finding Viable Options
| |
| About one out of every five income earners in Canada are self employed. This is a fairly large demographic, and the statistics suggest it is continuing to grow. This promotes any self employed person to ask why it is so challenging to obtain mortgages for self employed workers through charter banks. The reason is because business owners who work for themselves subtract expenses from extra income, which is not something many banks recognize. What you need if you are looking for mortgages for self employed workers is a lender that will look at your credit history rather than a combination of your business finances and taxes. |

How to run a business successfully
| |
| According to most business surveys, one-third of small businesses fail in the first two years and one-half fail within the first five years.

SHANGHAI - GATEWAY TO BUSINESS IN CHINA
| |
| With the sixth largest economy in the world, continued annual growth of nearly 10% and a 1.3 billion people strong population, Big Dragon China has developed a reputation as the “great new market”. A majority of multi-nationals are already in China while small to mid-size firms around the globe are rallying to get on board. Succeeding in China, however, is not without challenge and many companies fail. To be successful, a company must act intelligently. Intelligence means seeking expert advice, ensuring the opportunity is real and entering China through a developed regional market or “gateway” if you will. For most products and services, our gateway of choice is Shanghai. |

Reduce Employee Turnover Costs
| |
| There are many statistics and complex methodologies to support the notion that employee turnover costs are seriously affecting mid-sized enterprises. On the low end, the Hay Group reports that the cost to replace an employee is 50% of their total compensation, including benefits. On the high-end, Hewitt & Associates puts the cost between 100-150% of annual compensation. While executive management and sales staff are more costly to replace, churn in any function affects the bottom-line. |

| “We’re never arrogant, we're always looking at the competition,” says DeWolfe. “But they have not been successful for a couple of reasons. The intent to socialize on a site like Yahoo! isn't really there because the brand doesn't necessarily stand for anything and there's no real voice to it.” |

Prescience
| |
| Years ago, when reality shows first hit the television industry, I had been approached many times to appear in one. I refused all the offers, although a few were tempting. I just didn’t feel it was the right time or right venue for me. Then, after I’d refused all the offers, Mark Burnett approached me with his idea for The Apprentice and I just knew it was right. It had an educational subtext, the concept was solid, and sure enough, we had a solid hit on our hands. |

Rejection Proof - The Science Behind Success in Sales
| |
| The stronger a salesperson is, the less likely rejection is to have a major effect. That said, there are effective salespeople who have a rejection problem but they manage it better than their less effective colleagues. There are also some very ineffective salespeople who don't care about being rejected. In fact, their lack of caring about it may even lead to their ineffectiveness since their strategy rarely includes consideration of how to avoid resistance! |

What's Returns Have To Do With It?

| On a subject I don't talk much about, I wanted to address a subject that does affect retailers, even with a good POS system. And that's about returns. We can't ignore statistics, and these are showing us some important trends in retail fraud. We're finding that fraudulent returns total $9.6 billion a year, according to figures from the National Retail Federation, and a Return Exchange's Retail Returns Study puts the figure at more than $17 billion annually.
Returns that come through an automated system like your POS can take the burden of granting returns out of the store's hands. The merchandise tag can be scanned at point of sale and, when a customer c |

Latest Fiction for the Sales Force - No More Hunters/Farmers
| |
| In 2007 we had to deal with writers proclaiming that sales and the sales force were dead. The reality of all of that talk was that the people writing about it weren't close enough to sales to know what they were talking about. Companies with transactional sales don't need salespeople selling their transactional items, but they do need salespeople persuading companies to choose them in the first place. Then the transactions can be placed via Internet or an inside sales group. That's about the only scenario where the "dead" proclamation even comes close to being accurate. |

Profitable Online Home Based Business Ideas and the Recession; Why Most People Fail in MLM’s

It does not necessarily mean the MLM is a bad company. I believe it has everything to do with the marketing concepts and strategies of the traditional MLM. |

Although they have a real need, have the resources, and the job security to commit to a purchase, their interest quickly wanes.

| Do you ever stop and think about the number of business emails that are sent everyday? Well, industry statistics show that in 2006, there were 6 TRILLION non-spam emails sent by business email users. And the more important question is how many of those business emails actually get delivered to the intended receiver? I did not find that answer, but I did learn that industry statistics show that 75% of daily emails are spam. Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach certainly believes you need to be aware of the “state of email sending and delivering” so you can more effectively use email and increase the probability that your email does get delivered to the intended recipient. Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach has some advice that will help improve the deliverability of your business emails. |
