    Resumes - A Necessary Tool To Success!
    R?sum?s are standard business tools, and without them, most job applicants will never get a toe, much less a foot, in the door. Just as you can't gain entrance to a movie theater without a ticket, the business world has evolved such that without a r?sum?, you can't apply for most jobs. It has become, in many ways, the currency of human resource departments. With it you have a chance. Without a r?sum?, you can't even get acknowledged.
    We’ve all heard it before: “Just get out there and network!” If it was that easy, we would already be doing it. So why is it so hard? Well, you’re an introvert, aren’t you? Enough said.

    However, unless the prospect of a really long job search excites you, you have to get out there and connect with people who don’t know you but who could benefit from your expertise.

    Below are a baker’s dozen tips to help you crack the connection code.

    1. Attend with a purpose in mind. Be choosy about the events you attend. Pick the ones that interest you most. It could be a ribbon cutting for a new business, a chamber of commerce mixer, SPCA benefit, or pink slip party.

    2. Take a friend. Make a game of it. Challenge each other to beat your stated goals with the winner treating for ice cream.

    Can I Show a Past Due Amount on a Current Invoice in QuickBooks?
    I recently answered a question at quickbooksgroup.com that basically asked:Can I show an amount from an old invoice on a current invoice?Yes, you can. There is a rather complex work-around I developed, that transfers the balance from an old invoice to a new one. It does so by zeroing out the amount from the older invoice.However, this is not a good practice. Because it's not a good practice, I'm not going to show

    4. Split up. Rule #1 is you can’t talk to your networking partner until you’ve met the goals you’ve set for yourself. That means you can’t sit with each other, hang around the food table together, or accompany each other to the rest room. However, you may smile encouragingly across the room.

    5. Surprise, it’s not about you! Walk up to someone you don’t know. Ask the other person an opening question. It can be something as simple as, “What made you decide to attend tonight?”, “What brings you to this meeting?”, “Do you attend often?”, or “What kind of work do you do?”
