Go Freelance But Don't Make This Mistake
If you are considering freelance work, there is one mistake you should avoid as you go freelance. Don’t undercharge for your services.Many new freelance professionals fall into this trap. They are so anxious to start working as a freelance professional that they charge too little for what they do. Here is why that is a big mistake.First, you only have so many hours in a day, so if you don’t charge enough, then you simply won’t make the kind of money that you are hoping for. You have to realize that it will take you time to produce quality work and you should be paid for that time. Don't sell yourself short. If your client could do the work, they would do it

Trust, The Power Word in Sales
We started out on an advanced concept of dealing with resistance from customers. As we got started I could see the looks of confusion and frustration. This was not going to be easy to get through to them.“Ok, that’s great”, says one participant, “but we will never get the time to do this. They hang up on us before that! Can you help us get them talking long enough to get to that point?”Now I had to hide my frustration and tossed the prepared material to the side. “Ok, give me the skinny on what you’re dealing with!”Did I get them talking then! For 10 minutes they unloaded on being unable to crack the tough customers that would not even give them
I know what you’re thinking: why should I put my money in a place I’ve never even heard of before? Even for those who do know something about Pakistan, courtesy of CNN (and sometimes the BBC) have seen pictures of violence – people burning effigies of President George Bush, rioting, army personnel swarming over so-called terrorist camps and, of course, not to forget, a whole lot of bloodshed. No wonder it is usually confused with other places like Iraq and Afghanistan, which are actually going through very bad times.We started out on an advanced concept of dealing with resistance from customers.

Contemporary Bar Stools Keep Businesses Sitting Pretty
The only thing that does not change in this world is change. The business world is no exception. At Wall Street, stocks and bonds rise and fall due to hostile takeovers. Multi-billion dollar mergers are a daily thing. Executive decisions are made with the goal of saving a corporation's bottom line, not jobs. In the blink of an eye, seemingly unlimited amounts of money can be zapped from Wall Street to Main Street. In today's every-changing business world, people and corporations trade information at lightning-fast speed. What better way to reflect such exciting, dramatic, and no-nonsense times than through the office furniture? Contemporary bar stools can be as sleek as an iron

Business Owner's Manifesto: Must Do's
A GOOD INVESTMENT – I am the Leader of this business and am responsible to see that the business is treated and evaluated on the same basis as any business investment I might make, both in terms of time and money invested. I may have paid managers and staff to perform some or even all of the day-to-day tasks, but ensuring an adequate return on investment (blood, sweat and money) is my responsibility and my responsibility alone.ACHIEVING SECURITY/ROI – I recognize that there are two components of an adequate return: First, time invested must be compensated through salary, benefits and perks; AND, money invested must be guaranteed a fair rate of return plus a premium for

Making the Merger a Success
I was reading an article on Seeds of Growth on how individuals impact the branding and goodwill of an organisation. I found it quite easy to parallel to what they were saying about Corporate Branding and what I call Company Culture.See I'm a consultant that helps companies with divestments, carve-outs, post mergers, or post acquisitions. After the deal is done, I'm usually appointed to guide the organisations through all that is involved in the merger, and make sure they derive the value from the deal. Sometimes this gets lost in transition - people tend to focus on what's easy or important to them.The Seeds of Growth article was saying that there are two kinds of

But trust me, Pakistan is different. I know this sounds clich?d – AND you’ve probably heard it all a million times before – but the media portrays a lot of the Eastern world in a very negative light, and that is why we have had to suffer both socially and economically. But, as usual there IS the other side of the coin to look at too. With all due respect, I think we all are a little too self-indulged and over-influenced with ONE perspective (usually the media) and tend to ignore the fact that all of Mother Earth is inhabited by human beings, first of all, A
