Casual Articles - Small Business - Big Business...What's the Diff?
Many of us have been fooled by the latest work at home hype that is popular today. Letter stuffers, medical transcription, online pyramids, surveys, and even eBay stores may all sound promising, but many times they let our hopes down. In the field of work at home telemarketing you may have discovered that there too just like the others are a lot of promising offers that are nothing more than cheap scams. This can be very disheartening when trying to start a new career. You may even wonder if there really is any legitimate

Failure to negotiate could result in losing money.Market ValueThe negotiation process begins by determining what salary you need. Prepare a detailed outline of your expenses. Next determine the

I become frustrated and angry at the government’s paying lip service to assisting small business. It appears as though all governments, bureaucrats and many accounting advisers do not know what a real small business is.
In Australia the government’s definition for a small business is one which has less than 100 employees. Who are they kidding? In my consultancy that’s a big business.
They believe that ‘small business’ is the same as ‘big business’ on a smaller scale, that ‘big business’ is ‘small business’ with more of the same.
Wrong! About 99% of small business employs less than 10 employees and what is beneficial to the 100-employee firm may be downright dangerous for the 10-employee firm. Governments must know that. They can’t be so stupid not too… can they?
We Aussies are ready to believe anything about our politicians. We have met so many of them and none of them seem any brighter than the fellow next door. (In fact, none of them seem to know as much as I do).
When I decided to go global I was certain that the situation would be different in the USA. I was wrong.

Are you looking for a job where you can work from home and that is completely legal? There may have been times when you looked at an advertisement for a work at home job, but only to find out it is one almighty scam. In fact you may be one of these people who has been tempted to pay out lots of money for one that has turned out to be an enveloping stuffing scam. If you are, then it is quite understandable that you are going to shy away from looking any further at working from home. But do not worry, there is a job wait

Lean manufacturing offers many mental challenges for all levels in an organization. First of all believing there are wastes in the system is a challenge. People have a safe territory. They do not want to leave it. People are very comfortable in this territory, whether it is truly good or assumed to be good. Understanding the fact, there are wastes to be removed from the system offers a threat to the safety of this comfort zone. People therefore are not willing to come out of this, unless they see something they can’t resis

There is an old saying that cats have nine lives.Legend has it that Baldwin III, Count of Ypres, threw some cats from a tower in AD962. Europe was a tough place for cats in those days. But the more simplistic answer is that cats are resilient creatures, who manage to get into the tightest places and still land on their feet. Most have split personalities, suffering from eternal schizophrenia. One minute they’re cuddling up to you like a warm, furry ball. The next they’re arching their back and hissing, afraid of

Thirty-three years ago Heinz Ketchup lost their business with their biggest account, McDonalds. Since then they have been working to win it back. They lost McDonalds’ business back in 1973 because there was a small tomato crop and, instead of shorting the supply of bottled ketchup, Heinz shipped less to the “Golden Arches.” In the past few years they had some success when they won McDonald’s business in parts of Europe and Asia, but they have yet to crack North America.

In my consultancy of restaurants, coffee shops, florists, hairdressers, electrical retailers etc. the turnover limit is $5 million. In Australia there are NO single shop establishments achieving that sort of turnover.
In Australia a hairdressing salon working a 7-day week at an average price of $70 per client would need 30 clients each and every hour on ever day of the year. Impossible in Australia and probably in the USA too.
This does clear up an anomaly I had noticed in the different approach business plans took in Australia as opposed to that taken in America.
When Australian business began to use the Internet almost all the business plan software was from the States. The plans, although meant for small business, were not appropriate for Australian firms because they focused entirely on obtaining venture capital.
There were very few venture capital providers in Australia and of those that were few were interested in providing capital to the majority of our small ‘small business’. Business Plans languished in the filing cabinet and were hardly ever seen again.
The Australian consultants began to oversee business plans that focused on their being used as management tools. The
