Actual for You - Selecting a Business Broker - Look Out for these Red Flags
Logo Visability
Designing a logo can be an exciting process, and with an infinite array of logo design possibilities, it’s easy to forget to think about how your logo will look when you’re actually using it. No matter the nature of your business, you want to make sure your logo will look great no matter where you decide to use it.It is important to remember that complex logos, although they may look great on a large sign or on the company website, may not look so hot when shrunk down to fit on business cards and company pens. Logos will need to be adjusted when they are applied to stationary, t-shirts, business cards and websites. Aside from having access to the different file forms of your logo (jpg, eps, Tif.), keep the logo simple, avoid using too many colors and think about how you will be using your logo down the road. This can save you a lot of trouble down the line.A good logo is one that will fulfill all your needs, and part of that means being able to make it look great no matter how and where you choose to use it, whether that is on a billboard, on coaster

The Executive Resume - Moving Beyond Accomplishments
There is a major difference between conventional resumes and executive resumes. Accomplishments are usually the center point of a conventional resume (i.e., indicating how much money was saved, how sales increased, what processes were proposed, planned, initiated, implemented, or streamlined). The executive resume, on the other hand, has more than one focus. It alludes to the executive's ability to drive profits (accomplishments) and the capacity to lead (that is, to blend various "soft" skills) an organization.Successes are easier to hone in on. The result is clear, often quantifiable. After all, either you penetrated a market or you didn't, or either you were a top-performer or you weren't. It is harder to capture emotional competencies on paper, to indicate who you are, what you stand for, how you relate to others, how you affect change within an organization.On an executive resume, a list of Accomplishments does not suffice. Employers expect more, and since your resume is an introduction to your full qualifications, you must incorporate what you have done as w

He shared his findings with me and asked my opinion.

Conflicts of Interest at the FTC
The Federal Trade Commission has set forth an agenda to revamp the Franchise Rule. Actually not revamp and get rid of the unnecessary over regulation and over disclosure, but to re-define it and pile on more minutia. The Federal Trade Commission ought to re-consider all these potential rule changes and advise from attorneys in the industry because such comments and advise are self serving and do not help consumers. Attorney firms might hire Federal Trade Commission staff in the future and therefore many see vast amounts of abuse of power and conflict of interest. Basically you cannot trust them anymore; the regulators today who will be attorneys in private practice tomorrow in a constant revolving door, serving no free American.It should be noted all those Law Firms who commented in the rule making period and got their wishes; then correlate where Federal Trade Commission staff go to work in the future.

Coaching at Work
A major factor when considering investment in coaching is the cost savings that it can bring a company. These cost savings are significant and will provide an excellent return on the investment in coaching. At the moment there are companies who are suffering losses due to increased absence, poor staff retention and the high cost of recruiting quality people for their organisation.An employer with a workforce of 180 (fte) earning an average of ?12,500 pa will lose ?112,478 per year if the absence level due to sickness is 5%.For many employers the reality of failing to invest in their internal customers is much worse than the figure quoted above with some industries quoting absence as high as 18%, attrition at 43% and the cost of recruiting one junior member of staff being ?10,000 before the company gains a return on investment. In addition to this, the stark reality is that this is only the tip of the iceberg with businesses also losing money due to lack of motivation and no true feeling of value at all levels within organisations.For example, it is now twe
