I am not a big fisherman, but I do enjoy it whenever the opportunity comes my way. I have some friends who are fanatics and occasionally I will go out with one of them. They have nice boats and it makes for an enjoyable day.I like fishing from a boat but, actually, the kind of fishing I enjoy the most is surf fishing. I don’t do it very often, but occasionally, when I go to the beach on a family outing, I will take my rod and reel and fish from the beach.Surf fishing, to
All businesses need down time, breathing room to re-evaluate where we’re going, and where we’ve been. What’s working and what’s not? What changes need to occur and where we want to go in the future?
Have you planned your breathing room time into your calendar year?
As a coach and independent professional, I know by personal experience and through the feedback of my clients, that during the slow times, stress, fears, and challenges on how to pay the bills increases. Sometimes, stress increases without any money factors because we’re not used to having additional time on our hands, so our brain manifests things to fill the void. So, what are the alternatives? Good question. Let’s explore the possibilities...

The labor recession is over. During the course of the recession, almost 500,000 IT positions were lost according to publicly collected data and anecdotal information suggests even more. According top a recent poll, American business will add over 200000 new IT jobs in 2005. Your staff will probably be scanning job boards to see their value and blocking access is useless; they’ll only do it at home.So now that companies are hiring again, where are they going to find their staff of

What if you could earn lots more, in considerably less time, and feel mightily successful when your competitors are so scared they're spazzing out (haven’t used that phrase since high school) chasing their tails in circles, whimpering, "If buyers aren't buying we aren't going to have a business."Top Dogs Want Your Calls. Believe It!Wouldn't your ears perk up and your tail wag with anticipation at the thought of spending your selling time in front of nothing but qualified pr

It amazes me how popular team building seminars have become. Most major companies and organizations have turned to team building professionals at one time or another to get greater results from their employees. But, team building is not just for large companies, it works just as well for the small business entrepreneur. I’d like to focus on a couple of key points that will help you decide, as a big or small business, if team building seminars are right for you.One of the first q

You are selling your small business (business value under $1 million for this article). You would like the buyer of your business to come in with an all-cash offer, or be able to qualify for an SBA guaranteed loan. However, in many cases the owner of the business ends up taking back the financing because the buyer is not able to make an all-cash offer or does not qualify for an SBA guaranteed loan. So you create a “business note” and you now become the “bank”. At first that may

You can plan out, on a paper calendar your seasonal periods. Look at your Income Statement for the past few years and you will see a pattern appearing. If that history isn’t available, ask others in your field area. As a coach, I’m in the personal development field. I would contact others in this field, like speakers, trainers, who have experience and history and interview them on the question.
After you review your historical financial information, keep in mind that future economic conditions will influence your seasonal plans. This requires a strategy on who and what you are going to use for economic indicator flags. This may require a financial planner, economist, or other professional on your support team. Reading the paper or watching the news is all well and good, however, it can also add to confusion. Too many cooks in the kitchen syndrome. Choose one or two cooks and ask the others to leave the kitchen.
Remember, there are different seasons all over the world.
