Employee Email and Internet Use - A Small Business Guide
IntroductionIt is widely recognised that Email and the Internet is here to stay! Both mediums have become a vital part of business and personal communication in a world that increasingly relies on technology. We understand its benefits and sometimes berate its downsides; too much email, lack of personal communication, spam, the risk of employees accessing inappropriate material and using employer resources for personal gain.This gain in technology has not come without cost as increasingly employers and employees are being bought to task over breaches of copyright, confidentiality, privacy, discrimination and harassment and in some instances criminal offences (pornography, obscene and threatening material).This fact sheet examines ways of measures you can take to greatly reduce and protect your busi

Business Basics - Priority Versus Sequence
We all know (well I hope we do) that part of being a good leader is in the art of delegation, trust, and looking after the people who look after us (good topic for another article!!!) BUT who looks after us, how do we look after ourselves?How do we make our job(s) any easier? Based on the premise that it helps to be reminded occasionally of business basics or best practices, I thought it would be worthwhile to share this snippet with you... Priority Vs Sequence Two of the worst inventions are the brief case (Flappsie Happsie Bags) more about that in a few days and yellow stickies (unless you are the manufacturer of course). OK, yes I know, these little stickies are wonderful, they come in so handy. But they grow, and grow and grow
You’ve probably been to, or used most of them in the past; they’re the cream of the crop, the best of the best, and it’s by no coincidence they got there either.

Customer Service
What is good customer service? That’s a question that often haunts both marketers and consumers alike, mainly because their definition of this sometimes elusive concept is at odds with one another. Young people who work the counters will often lament what they consider to be the outlandish expectations of their customers, which they feel are over and above the call of duty.Meanwhile, the older fold will criticize the service industry workers today for not taking enough care and attention to their needs like they did in “the old days”. Perhaps only the professionals can come up with a firm definition of what customer service is all about.The bottom-line is that customer service is taking care of the client as best you can, regardless of whether your business is in retail or food service, automotive repair o

The Differences Between A Commercial Collections Agency & Lawyer
If your letter writing and phone calls have all failed to resolve a debt issue, it is time to call in a professional - a commercial collection agency or a lawyer specializing in commercial debt collection.The most obvious choice to collect an unpaid debt is a commercial collection agency. Agencies come in all sizes; some are local, some specialize in handling certain kinds of commercial debts and others are national in scope. The cost varies, depending on the volume of business you bring to the table and the amount of debt that is to be collected. Plan on paying 25 to 30 percent of the amount collected, with some agencies demanding a 50-50 split. Some commercial collection agencies offer a flat fee service that can help sift out some of the easier commercial debt to collect before paying a high percentage.

Point Your Employees Toward Financial Freedom
Could the person in this story be one of your salespeople?A 39-year-old salesperson recently told me that he earned a six-figure income last year. He said that he had never dreamed that he would earn that kind of money in a single year. As a reward to himself for posting such a successful performance, he purchased a new truck, a bass boat and went on a golfing trip to Cabo San Lucas in Mexico. The salesperson is not married.As he and I began our interview, I asked permission to ask a few questions about his financial situation and he agreed.“If you don’t mind my asking, how much of last year’s income did you invest?” I asked him.“I know I need to begin saving for retirement, but so far I’ve not invested any at all. Right now, I have only about $5,000 in a money market account.”“How

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 other useful i
