Casual Articles - Business Audiobooks Help You Grow Your Business
We had an election in 2006 where many new politicians were voted in because people wanted a change. There wasn’t a real clear reason or picture of what the change was going to be, people just wanted change. In your world, or store, do you want change? Are you looking for reasons and ways to change? Do the reasons and the total plan have to be thought out before you start change? Or … do you keep things running the same because that is the way you always did it, hoping that tomorrow will be better.Twenty years ago when I first entered the Vacuum Retail Business, I was told by a vacuum store owner that opening a vacuum store was easy. “All you have to do is rent a small store, throw up some vacuum bags on peg board, and you would be in business.” By the way, he is out of business. Did you ever think that a hardware store, Home Depot or Lowes, would be selling a $500 vacuum? Everyone understands that retail has changed and will continue to change. But as an industry, have we really changed all that much?I try to visit stores when I am out of town and sometimes I quite frankly am stunned by the condition of some stores and embarrassed to be in the same

These days its extremely difficult to distinguish between ethical and unethical advertising, the line between is so fine that the interpretation of it is ultimately left up to the consumer to make the decision. The closer the advertising pitch is to controversial, funnily enough, the more consumers find it appealing, get suckered in and after its too late realise the consequences. Blatant trickery in advertising in my opinion constitutes fraud and these companies should have the whole book flung at them.Two of the biggest markets are woman and kids. The amount of money made from these two sectors runs into billions each year and companies know exactly how to tug on those purse strings. I don't believe that you could ever eradicate companies that sell products that are less than acceptable; e.g., alcohol and cigarette products. To put the whole blame on advertising companies alone would be an injustice to them. Why would companies resort to subtle advertising tactics to sell products to kids, their attempts to do this is just a waste of time and money when they know very well that to sell products to kids you just have to be straight forward. The subtle sid

I bought a second pair of reading glasses from my local Optician recently. I need this pair to help me find the first pair which inevitably go missing. While in the Opticians I remember thinking that I needed to buy some solution and some of those tissues for cleaning my mucky glasses.However, when it came to the point of paying for my new glasses the cleaning stuff went right out of my head. So why didn't the Optician or his assistant ask me - "Is there anything else you need today?" or even - "Do you need any cleaner for your glasses?" Perhaps they didn't like or have the courage to ask, or even they forgot. One way or another, they missed an add-on sale and I didn't get any muck remover.A couple of days later I was buying a lunchtime sandwich and totally forgot to pick up a bottle of water. If only I'd been asked - "Is there anything else sir, a drink to go with your sandwich?" I ended up going back to another shop in the mall for my bottle of water.These are only two small opportunities of lost sales and irritation for the customer. To be fair, I'm often asked - "Is there anything else we can do for you today sir?" I us
With the rising popularity of MP3 players and iPods, and more new cars being fitted with built-in MP3 players (as of this year, almost all new cars are now capable of playing digital audio files), more business people are discovering that music or the news is not the only thing they can listen to while going about their busy day. Now, people can "listen" to business books, business seminars, sales and marketing lectures and podcasts from successful business people while they're on-the-go -- and when they don't have time to read. Hence, the huge emerging popularity of audio books with commuters and business owners.
Today's mobile and "time-starved" business owners, sales managers and sales professionals are discovering that they can download an unlimited amount of information into their brain, learn a foreign language or new skill that will improve their business, and get that competitive business edge while driving in their cars, commuting in trains and buses, or even while standing around in queues.
Most business people love to improve their business acumen via reading and taking courses, but lack the time to do so. This is where audiobooks can play an important role in their professional lives.
Business audio books narrated by successful business people can act as an ideal mentoring tool for business owners (one specific title that comes immediately to mind is the audiobook version of Michael E. Gerber's business classic "The E-Myth: Why Most Small Businesses Don't Work And What To Do About It" read by the author himself!). Imagi
