Why paying attention to where you are in the business lifecycle will help you - part 3
In parts 1 and 2, I discussed the first 4 phases of a typical business lifecycle; from its very first days to reaching maturity. In this article, the last of the series, I’ll discuss typical characteristics of a business that has developed to a stage where its owners are expanding. I’ll also discuss how to identify a business that has reached its peak and is now declining and the merits of reviewing exit strategies for its owners.

What Position Is Your Marketing for Small Business Communication In?
Many small business communications suffer from the same flaw – they appear more interested in themselves than the customers. What do I mean? Let's take a typical website introduction. "Welcome to the ABCD website. ABCD have proudly been in business since 1987. We are a family owned company that prides itself of the great service we provide." It is all about ABCD and nothing about the customer! Other companies seem aloof and do not connect with the customer.

Profitable Online business Ideas and the Recession; Increase Your Income
In these economic hard times everyone senses a high degree of fear and unrest. The typical reaction most people have is to “tighten your belt!” Many people will seek a part time job. Others will cling ever tighter to the job they have. Cutting corners and shaving the family budget is surely the norm. All of these things are a typical reaction. But is there another way?

Succession ----Have You Taught Your Son or Daughter How to Swim?
If it is your true desire to keep the business in the family and pass it on to the next generation, you have an obligation to yourself, to the business, to your employees and yes to your son or daughter to make sure you are doing everything you can possibly do to help them prepare to take over the business. I can offer one simple piece of advice; when they are ready, back off and get out of the way. There are all kinds of published recommendations on this subject regarding family qualifications etc. If Dad is a typical old school autocratic type of leader who believes that sweating blood, an exceptional work ethic without concern for balance and shows no interest in discussing the emotional feeling side of succession, the kids will have difficulty maintaining a clear sense of expectations for themselves.

Why DO Idiots Eat Their Young? And, Is it a Bad thing?
If we compare the typical "idiot" in business to the starving family patriarch in the cruelest of winters, interesting parallels start to surface. Consider the challenge of feeding a family to the typical business leader that must financially feed his or her team. Imagine the bad winter as analogous to the challenging business climate and the story starts to sizzle.

Family Businesses Face Unique Challenges: What Makes Them Different?
In matters of cash flow and marketing, a family-owned or closely-held business is the same as any other small business. But family-owned and closely held businesses also they have significant differences, especially when it comes time to talk about retirement, resale, or transitioning the business to the next generation. Here were some key points noted by the Family Business Institute on what makes family-owned businesses different:

The Gift Of Receiving
Every family has one. That one person who shoulders all the family burdens, keeps the family secrets and cleans up the family messes. The one who is everyone’s sounding board and shoulder to cry on. The one who remembers all the holidays, birthdays and anniversaries. The one around whom the family always gathers. In my family, it’s my grandma. She has been the rock in my family for as long as anyone can remember.

Love, Health and Harmony
Few things in life are more important than your family. Yet few challenges in life seem as great as keeping your family together. However, you can experience close, healthy relationships with your family!

The Benefits When You Work At Home Doing Data Entry
A typical job can provide you with a decent income, but you will be stuck with all of the constraints that a physical job can have. When you work at home doing data entry, you will still have money coming in, but you will not have to deal with all of the problems that can arise in a family when you cannot take off work.

Do you work with jerks?
Did you ever wonder how much time is spent being annoyed (or annoying others) at work? A whopping 93 percent of workers report being negatively affected by an inability to deal with conflict on the job. They are told to "forget it", "deal with it on personal time" or "it's no big deal". Fortune 500 HR executives spend up to one-fifth of their time dealing with litigation activities. And a typical manager spends about 30 percent of a typical day dealing with disgruntled employees.
