    Telecommuting Job Idea: General Transcriptionist
    A general transcriptionist is not the same as a medical or legal transcriptionist. Those two fields are more specialized, but require similar skills. Many of the positions are full-time or part-time, instead of freelance work. But, there are many employers who like the benefits of using freelance, or contract, workers.Where to find a job as a general transcriptionist: There are many on-line job sites that advertise for t

    The Easiest Way to Get Free Advertising for Your Business
    One of the easiest ways to advertise your business for free is to write articles for your local newspaper or industry trade magazines.That's right. You can write one article for your local newspaper or an industry trade magazine and sometimes even get paid while advertising your business.How does that work? Trade magazines are hungry for articles as are your local newspaper, but be careful about how you approach i
    Why is it that most companies really only think about marketing when their backs are against the wall? Driven by declining sales or slow growth, changing patterns in their (or their customer’s) buying behaviours and /or increasing competition, suddenly the penny drops! Marketing – oh yes maybe I should try that!

    I know we all mean well but as human beings we are not good at consistently driving for stretch or continuous improvement. We all know what we should have been doing but somehow there just wasn’t enough time in the day. And the days turned into weeks, which somehow, turned into months!

    Marketing is not a department within the business and, I believe, it is also not so much about what we do as it is about “how we consistently do it!”

    I’ve come to the conclusion that the old adage “a rolling stone gathers no moss” is as true in business as it is in life generally. Somewhere in our genetic make-up we are all pre-programmed to strive for that day when we can pull back and relax having “made it”.

    2007 Thoughts on Adventures in Advertising for Advanced Entrepreneurs
    Modern civilizations and societies are bombarded with commercial images. Advertising is everywhere and every business must engage in some form of advertising, publicity and public relations in order to succeed. But with advertising everywhere small businesses and corporations alike must compete for the consumer’s eyeball. Simply having a good ad is not enough and even having great placement alone will not suffice.I hav

    The Importance of a Drug Free Workplace and Creating a Drug Testing Policy for your Business
    Drug abuse in the workplace is a serious problem that affects the status and output of American businesses. $100 billion a year is lost in revenues and production or spent on insurance claims, paid sick leave, theft and accidents due to drug use. However, drug testing in the workplace can dramatically lower this number, by preventing the hire of drug abusers, eliminating employees who choose to indulge in the use of illicit dru

    The First Step to Health is to Recognise that You are Sick and Need Treatment
    The first step to good health is to acknowledge the presence of pain and that all is not well with the body. In many ways, the job of the turnaround manager is akin to that of the physician. The first step is to diagnose the corporate patient’s condition before even attempting to prescribe the right medication. For prescription without proper diagnosis is malpractice.The starting point is crucial to ensure that y

There are many examples we can find by looking around us of companies which, having thought they had “made it”, suddenly have been thrown into hot water through changing markets, changing economic scenarios and changing business structures. These are all marketing issues that need to be constantly monitored.

    What can we do to ensure that in the good times we are using our energy to prepare for the rocky road that is sure to be just over the horizon? And, for those of you who are currently within the mounting storm, what can you do to minimize your risk?

    I think there are a few fundamental blocks that need to be core to any organization:

    1. If you are the captain (of the company, the dept or the team) you must be up on the bridge and not constantly in the engine room. If you are down shoveling the coal you cannot be checking for the icebergs!

    2. Open your mind! It is not “their” problem, your future is not in “their” hands and it is not “their” fault! Start by looking inward in order to ensure your personal marketing is in order!
