Incomplete Accounting Records
The accounting records of many smaller non-profit organisations such as clubs, cultural societies and small undertakings are often kept by means of a single entry accounting system. Nevertheless, details of the financial activities of such organisations and undertakings are available in different documents such as bank statements, invoices, accounts, wage sheets and minute books.There are two major disadvantages to such incomplete (non-double entry basis) accounting records: (1) a great deal of useful information may be lost. It is possible to prepare financial accounting statements from the available information, but this may be more difficult than when complete records are available. Certain transactions may not be accounted for and there is also no continuity in the recording of financial and othe

How do we know what the 5 Biggest Mistakes are? After over a decade in direct response, we have peered “under the hood” of hundreds of direct marketing campaigns across every type of category imaginable. Sometimes a new client will come to us after a failed attempt with another agency, or simply to get a second opinion on whether their campaign was or is being run optimally.

Concentrate On The Task At Hand
As a kid, I liked the teams involved in the current World Series, the Detroit Tigers and the St. Louis Cardinals. Al Kaline was “Mr. Tiger” and represented what baseball is all about. And even though Ty Cobb played before my time, when you think of the Detroit Tigers, the legendary “Georgia Peach” has to come to mind.

Along with listening to their games on radio, my father, brother, and I made annual week-long visits to St. Louis to see the Cardinals play. Enos “Country” Slaughter and Stan “The Man” Musial were my favor
