    Outdoor Billboard Advertising Banned In NYC'S Times Square - Imagine If This Were True
    What would it be like if outdoor billboard ads were banned in NYC’s Times Square? To me part of the allure of Times Square is the ads. The advertising, to me, is like artwork. Not only that, the lights and digital screens brighten up Times Square to make it almost seem as though it’s daytime, even in the middle of the night.Would Times Square feel as alive as it does right now if there were billboards, no advertising, no flashing

    Defining Your Brand
    Brands can become the de facto standard but you need to make sure that you define your brand in your own terms in a positive way. Everyone has heard of Kleenex or even Aspirin. These are both brands of a product that have become a word for the product itself. You can likely think of others that fall into this category. The products these companies produce are used by so many people that the brand name and product become like one. It is
    As the New Year approaches, have you thought about your career goals? What worked to years ago in planning and managing your career will not work for your career development in the 21st Century. Managing your career in the 21st Century requires preparation, career goal planning and career guidance and ensuring that your time is directed meaningfully.

    Here is how to find enjoyment and continue to progress in your career.

    1. Determine if your present job is in line with who you are, what you value, and what you are good at. Are you really doing what you want to do? Being self-aware means you become clear about what you stand for and what you have to offer. When you know what you have to offer, you become more powerful and intentional in your work. Doing a good job is no longer good enough to guarantee your career will go well. You are your most important asset. Self-branding provides direction and clarity of purpose for how you work, not just what you do for a living.

    2. Identify your job satisfiers and dissatisfiers. Find a way to do more of the tasks/projects that you enjoy.

    3. Identify your accomplishments.

    4. Take the time to build and maintain relationship with individuals who might impact your work. You will benefit personally and professionally from the time you invest in such relationships.

    5. Determine and write down your vision for your professional life. What actions do you need to take that will get you there? Celebrate the steps you take daily to achieve your vision. You can create the life you want! Here are some ways you can do that:

    * Keep work in perspective - remember how you left work on time in the summer?

    * Manage your stress - identify what causes you stress and how it affects you.

    * Take time out - close your door (if you have one), call forward your phone, turn off your e-mail, take a walk. Use this time "during your work day" to prepare for a big meeting, a presentation or work on a project.

    Translation of Internal Reports & Communications
    In today's global economy, it is not only trade that is international. It’s the companies and their employees too. Therefore it’s increasingly common to have companies with a variety of languages spoken in the divisions. So perhaps we should expect that translation of internal reports and communications is a regular occurrence?I have worked at some pretty large international companies and from my own experience most businesses ha

    Copy Makeovers Made Easy
    Copy makeovers can work magic.Perhaps all you need is a little medicine... and not major surgery. Take whatever sales copy you have now and modify it. Recast, rework and repackage what you've got.Chances are you’re sitting on some solid (yet hidden) sales material. Often simple copy makeovers can work wonders in terms of response. So, before you crumple it up and toss your sales letter in the trash, try tweaking it first.

    Logo Mats Create A Great Impression
    Next time you’re thinking of purchasing an entrance mat for your company building, think about the benefits of purchasing a logo mat instead.Even if you are loathed to replace your current entrance mat, then think of the many other areas a logo mat can be placed, such as in front of a reception desk, in the board room, in training areas, waiting rooms or by vending machines for example.

    Vibration Isolators
    Vibration isolators, as the name suggests, are components that prevent an object from touching or affecting another object.

    6. Be Bold! Don’t be afraid to take on some responsibilities in positions above you. Aim to always exceed expectations.

    7. Manage your own time. Set boundaries. Learn to say "no" to non-essential use of your time.

    8. Look for way to do things better, and more efficiently. Change a routine task - develop a new process. Instead of handling your e-mails as you get them, set aside specific times during the day to respond.

    9. Be great at what you do. The knowledge and skill that create success in your current job will position you for your next move.

    11. Take on projects that will most likely benefit you.

    12. Have passion for what you are doing and working toward. You will automatically put more effort into it. If you are not feeling passionate about your work ask yourself: is what you “should’ be doing interfering with what you want to be doing?

    Remember! Your career must contribute to your life, not the other way around!
