    Education is the Star at Starbucks
    I avoided caffeine for many years. But with so many flights and late, late nights, I recently tried ‘just a sip’. The next day I dunked a Danish pastry. A few days later I asked for ‘half a cup, please’. In very little time, I was enjoying caf? latte for breakfast!Much has changed in the world of coffee in the past few years.

    After a pretty extensive conversation, I discovered that my cousin was not really sure. He was sure of the thousands of dollars he had invested in his daughter’s education, but had no idea what his daughter was really going to be doing for a living nor did he have his daughter’s business card or clinic information available.

    Management in the New Information Economy; Consider it
    In the late 1990’s we witnessed a complete shift as computers become commonplace. Personal Computer ownership skyrockets and every small business started using email between customers, vendors, employees and locations. The information age was set and now some complain that there is too much information? But how can you have too much information.The truth is you cannot, but if you do not have some filtering system for the abundance of data, then most all of it will side track you in a diff

    You can consider it a big a mistake when you underestimate the importance of letting people know what you do for a living. Everyone you know and come in contact with should be able have general knowledge of who you are and what you do. The best place to start is with your own family members. Share with them what key factors they should listen for in a conversation. These factors can lead them to a good referral for your business.

    Let’s take a look at an example. If you are an insurance agent, tell your family that when they hear someone discussing the purchase of a new home, buying a new car or discussing retirement, these are all factors that might lead to a good lead for your business. Train your family to identify the particular need of this person. Teach them to offer a solution and a call to action by sharing what you do for a living and how you can be contacted.
