Will the Real Content Divas please stand up?
Content Divas is an outsourcing team that has been in business since 2007 that has a growing staff of over 300 writers and roughly 20 editors. They primarily focus on organic content that has stood the test of time on the internet.

Lesson #1: Sharpen but Never Stray From Your Vision
“Remain true to yourself and your philosophy,” Armani once said. “Changing in the face of adversity will in fact diminish your credibility with your customers.”

Lesson #4: Build A Brand That Can Stand On Its Own
In both 2004 and 2005, Canadian Business magazine named Tim Hortons the best-managed brand in Canada. Joyce may no longer be with the company, but that honour is in no small part due to the successful marketing strategy that he initiated in the company’s early years. With a focus on grassroots and Canadian culture, Joyce created a brand that has inspired a nation’s pride and has stood the test of time.

Lesson #2: What’s in a Name? Everything!
When Eastman first began to think about a name for his company, others kept saying to him that he was putting too much energy and effort into it. He was wasting his time, they told him. After all, it was just a name.

In Summary...
I've been working on various forms of my Master Presentation, pretty much fulltime, for the last couple of weeks. A Post yesterday started a rather vigorous discussion about success "rules" that withstand the test of time. Virtually nothing—you, me, the corporation, the nation—withstands the test of time. And one of the principal reasons is hardening of the philosophical arteries—increasingly rigid interpretations of yesterday's "success" rules.

Google
I believe the slogan went "Stop the Insanity". The last thing I want to do is put down the Art (and or science) of Search Engine Optimization (SEO), but with google adding new additions to it's internet controlling algorithm on what seems a weekly basis, I have to reiterate a brilliant idea. The latest update from google is code-name Caffeine, previously Bourbon and before that paragon-alpha...and on and on. Here is the Website SEO tip that will stand the test of time, whether Google, Yahoo or Bing... are you ready??

Four facts all sales reps should always keep in mind
We are all conditioned to always remembering that the customer is always right. That's a good thing in general, but do we take it too far?

Autonomy A Key Element in Sustainable Sales Training
Take a quick review of your sales training material or programs? Is there any learning objective about autonomy? Do you want you salespersons to be accountable? So how are you building this internal sales attitude?

The Golden Rule of Communications
Treat others as you would like to be treated! This change in understanding can increase the number of contacts and clients you develop by 500%. This is not a misprint.

Tried And True Work At Home Jobs
With today's economy in the state it is, many people are looking for a sure fire way to bring themselves an income from home. This could be to save money on rising gas prices or to save the cost of a babysitter to be with the children.

How to be Goal Focused
There has been an awful lot talked and written about on the subject of goal setting. The concept is simple and straightforward; yet far too many people and organisations still don’t do it. If this applies to you or your organisation I want you to put that right - now.

20 todo's for Windows 7
The focus of windows 3.1 to 2000 was usability. The focus of XP was security and, again contrary to some gripers, the security problems were mostly fixed. The hype of Vista seemed to be about visual design - and not usability, so a lot of users like me went "pfffff". Will the next version of windows goes back to the basics and focus on the daily needs of us users to help us do what we do a little faster and with fewer frustrations? Here's twenty things to hope for.

The Power of Tone Setting
When used in the leadership role, simple human interactions can have extraordinary impact and power in managing morale and productivity. Quite simply, leaders with good tone setting skills will achieve much greater results, improve the loyalty of their team members, work through difficulties easier, create an environment with less stress and deliver greater levels of service to their end customers.

How To Advertise Your Business For Free
I said over twelve years ago, that the low-cost or free advertising potential of the internet provides a level playing ground that allows most anyone to have an at-home business. However, neither then or now, does low-cost or cost-free translate into a free ride. In order to succeed online you must put in time, money or pardon the expression–-sweat equity. It’s truly not at all like the Kevin Costner movie Field of Dreams where "If you build it they will come." Someone, somewhere, somehow is going to have to promote, promote, promote!

Do You Have What It Takes To Become An Entrepreneur
Believe it or don't, I just flunked another test for "entrepreneurial" traits! From my test score, it appears I am probably better adapted to washing dishes than running a business. Then again, according to the governing laws of aerodynamics, Bumble Bees can't fly either. Let me tell you a TRUE STORY about those tests.

Flying High: How Kelleher Took Southwest to the Top
“I took an aptitude test in college, and it said there were three things I’d be fairly decent at,” says Kelleher, “being a journalist, an editor, or a lawyer.” Nobody – not the other airlines, not the financial community, not even his own aptitude test – believed Kelleher had what it took to start a successful company. So how did this man who was so destined to be a lawyer defy fate and become one of the most successful CEOs of his time?

Magnesium - The "Go Fast Adrenal Junkie" tonic
One common test that we naturopaths perform is a hair tissue mineral analysis. Based on an analysis of a strand of your hair we are able to identify the mineral profile and existence of heavy metals and their influence within your body. This is the first test I always conduct on people who are �burning the candle at both ends� and almost 100 per cent of the time these people have one thing in common, a magnesium imbalance.

What Is Your Sales Team’s A. Q.?
It has been known for some time that if you want to measure an individual’s intelligence, you administer an Intelligence Quotient test. This has been an accepted method of measuring one’s intelligence for many years. In sales management, intelligence is important, but this does not get you closer to measuring or predicting your sales team’s effectiveness or the ability to predict with any certainty the projections of future sales. How do measure this? With an A. Q. test.

Using Employment Tests
On today’s market, there are hundreds of extremely well-developed employment tests. However, many widely distributed and highly marketed tests do not meet generally accepted standards for test development and validation. Organizations considering the use of employment tests should carefully consider how the test was developed, the extent to which a test yields stable and consistent results, the relationship between test scores and sales success, and the non-discriminatory nature of the test.
