Actual for You - Internet and Businesses Online

When You're Hot And When You're Not
What do the stock market, the grocery, the dentist, a copper mine, and the janitorial service have in common?I can’t imagine a more dissimilar group of business descriptions but they all are subject to the whims of the marketplace. The value of each product or service is subject to trends and fads created by events and market forces far removed from the actual effort involved in production or fulfillment.Market knowledge, intuition, powers of observation, and timing are crucial to the success of every person who presents

sites exist that have links to police scanners across the United States. Two good ones are policescan.us and police-scanner.info.

Policescan.us has more scanner links--fire as well as police--but it is disorganized and, to be frank, pretty junky looking. Nevertheless, it's worth a visit just for the sheer number of scanner feeds available.

Police-scanner.info is also a rather cluttered site, but its scanner list is much neater and better organized. As the list is arranged by state, it

Case Study: The Branding of an Actors School of Performing Arts
The competition for performing arts schools is tough and indeed it is important for those who are in such an industry to pay special attention to branding. Recently, I met a gentleman who started a performing arts and actors training school during my travels and he called it V-Stages.Later I considered what V-stages meant and the marketing value of that brand. The gentleman had done an excellent job designing his business cards and the whole thing made perfect sense. Did you know that "Vstages" is an agricultural term? It refers

Today's so-called reality shows are too staged for my taste. Their contrived situations and semi-scripted actions actually render them somewhat less than real.

For unvarnished reality, try listening to a police scanner. You'll hear real cops answering real crime calls. You'll hear police officers as they head into potentially dangerous situations. You'll hear police dispatchers as they try to keep up with everything from fender benders to shootings--all in a standard night's work for many police departments.

When the first police scanners came out, my mother bought one so she could hear what was happening in her city, and especially to hear if anything bad was being reported in her own neighborhood.

I remember coming in late at night from a date to find her sitting at the kitchen table with the scanner going. Naturally, she had been worrying about where I was and listening to hear if there had been any wrecks.

When my brother became a policeman, my mother really had something to worry about--and an excuse to listen to the police radio day in and day out.

Police scanners are not just for professional worriers, though. Many people listen to them as a hobby. Newspaper, radio and TV reporters listen to them in order to get the first word of a major crime or accident so they can get to the scene quickly.

Nowadays, you don't even need a police scanner to hear police calls in many cities. There are hundreds of live police radio feeds being streamed over the Internet. There are also fire department radio feeds as well. All you do is click a link for the city of your choice and start listening.

Tonight, I listened for about an hour to the live police feed from my hometown, a medium-sized city with a normal share of crime and other human conflict. During that hour, I heard police answer calls to respond to an assault, a stolen car, an attempted home break-in, and someone who was threatening her neighbor with a knife.

Why You Need a Sales Funnel Part II
A Sales Funnel Report can be run to compare the actual situation at each stage with your sales budget or plan. The funnel can indicate if any specific level is acting as a bottleneck and needs more effort directed to it, or if resource can be taken from one level and deployed at another. It can indicate whether or not a sales budget can be met, or if more leads have to be added to the top of the funnel. It can also indicate at what point leads drop out of the system, and what action is required to maintain a steady flow.In ord

Business Strategy – How Clear Decision Roles Enhance Organizational Performance
Decisions are the coin of the realm in business. Every success, every mishap, every opportunity seized or missed is the result of a decision that someone made or failed to make. At many companies, decisions routinely get stuck inside the organization like loose change. But it's more than loose change that's at stake, of course; it's the performance of the entire organization. Never mind what industry you're in, how big and well known your company may be, or how clever your strategy is. If you can't make the right decisions quickly

Transparency: A Key To Your Effectiveness
Last month I talked about the Skilled Facilitator principle of being curious. This month I want to talk about the complementary principle transparency. Transparency has recently become a popular topic in business as organizations seek to build (or rebuild) trust with customers, shareholders, and employees. This morning as I opened the op-ed page of my Sunday New York Times, the title read, "The New Public [NY Times] Editor: Toward Greater Transparency." Whether you are a leader, consultant, facilitator or a team member, being transparen

One tip if you want to get the most out of listening to live police radio: Learn the 10-codes! Police use special codes over the radio. Many of the most common ones start with "10." You're undoubtedly familiar with "10-4," meaning "I copied (heard) you." But what about "10-12" or "10-19?" If you don't know the codes, or have a list of them near to hand, you won't always know what is happening.

Below are some of the most common 10-codes, but there are others. There are also other sets of codes, used by some police departments, that do not begin with "10," or any number for that matter. For example, in some cities you might hear a dispatcher tell a police officer to respond to an "ADW," that is, an assault with a deadly weapon.

10-7 Officer is out of service
10-8 Officer is in service and available for assignment
10-9 Repeat last transmission, please
10-12 Visitors or officials are present, so be discreet
10-15 Prisoner is in custody
10-19 Returning to the station
10-22 Disregard your last assignment
10-24 There's an emergency at the station; all vehicles return now
10-27 Driver's license check
10-32 Drowning
10-33 Alarm sounding
10-34 Please assist at office
10-43 Call a doctor
10-50 Subject is under the influence of narcotics
10-51 Subject is drunk
10-54 Possible dead body
10-56 Suicide
10-64 Found property
10-66 Suspicious person reported
10-67 Someone is calling for help
10-70 Prowler
10-71 Shooting
10-72 Knifing
10-79 Bomb threat
10-80 Explosion
10-91 Barking dog

Coaching to help people improve their performance is one of those skills that is easy to talk about and a whole lot harder to do. In this article, learn what it means to help employees fail with support and how important it is to be present at those coachable moments.

Effectively empower your employees and help them to become self-motivated and self-directed through effective performance evaluations.

You're lazy. Admit it. You're lazy and this is why you fail in affiliate marketing. You're always looking for ways to just click and press a few buttons and make some money. This is where private label rights (PLR) articles come in. These are pre-written articles for your website that you can use in ANY way you want, including claiming authorship of them. It's generally acknowledge that you will have to rewrite these articles to avoid duplicate content filters on the search engines, lest you end up with a website just like a hundred others. However, I don't agree that PLR articles have any value at all, and in this article I'll tell you exactly why.
