There are many milestones on the long road of business ownership…one of the most important milestones is the five year mark. Many businesses never make it to that milestone, somewhere along the way they fall by the wayside. Other businesses make it to the five year mark barely hanging on. Those who make it to the five year mark with a strong, healthy business and their own sanity, have something truly worth celebrating.And so it is with great pleasure that I celebrate a milestone for my own business, founded five years ago today. My business is strong and growing. My cash flow is positive. And (arguably) I remain in full possession of my sanity…opinions may vary.Here are some of the valuable lessons I learned along the way

The Gallup Organization surveyed 200,000 individuals in 36 organizations, across 21 industries about their level of engagement. Only 29% of employees reported that they were engaged or highly engaged at work. An astounding 55% reported that they were not engaged (think of their attitude as “wait-and-see”) and an even more revealing 16% reported that they were actively disengaged (think of behavior such as complaining, arguing and actively sabotaging the organization’s efforts).The same research reveals that employees often join organizations feeling highly engaged. After more than a year on the job, however, the employee often feels less engaged. In fact the longer they hold the job, the less engaged they tend to be. So what’s happ
From the day you are born your parents and ancestors start out your site. General information about where you come from, who you are related to, and your infant habits are related to the rest of the wider community who religiously stay informed about their fellow species. People want and need to know about each other. If you need a house painter, you already know all about the local tradespeople in your area, and importantly, which ones you either have a personal connection with, or suit your particular interior design tastes. It’s the same for doctors, lawyers, and schoolteachers.
After you reach a certain age children start to add more and change pages to their site. That’s where a strange kind of beauty comes into the picture. People only know what you tell them of yourself. Oh, you can lie and make out to be someone you’re not, but the community is so well connected that as soon as anything facetious is written, others are blogging and commenting on each other’s sites informing each other of this possible corruption of the truth. In the end, your site becomes a reflection of you, a place where family, friends, and the wider community can learn about what makes you tick as an individual. Whenever you meet anyone on your daily or even holiday travels you can later go into your laptop or palm computer and learn all about them. Then the personal connections start to evolve.
Say you’re at a party one day and you meet someone that you are very attracted to, but who you only get a brief chance to talk with as they have prior engagements that they must attend to. As long as you caught their name you can go online and learn all about what kind of person they are. You might find you have similar interests, or that your first impression was totally off the mark. If their character profile does seem interesting to your personality, you can then send them a message straight to their email reminding them of your meeting, and urge them to meet you again.

Do not pay for any help to obtain a grant to start a small business. Grants do not exist for small businesses UNLESS the small business owner wants it to be a non-profit and are willing to be audited and give that money to others. [Which goes against the purpose 99% of the time for opening a small business.] I have read hundreds of ads from grant directory publishers and they constantly State "get free grants [redundant since a grant is a free thing in the first place].The IRS allows, under very limited conditions, a person to set up a non-profit organization to service, most often, educational services for displaced adults and For home makers and such services.But for those who have a good idea for a small business and seek

Do you believe in coincidences? Well, as I was writing this article, I got an email from past colleague.The last time we "talked" was by email 2 years ago. And yet, when I got her email today, I was delighted to hear from her (even though she was writing to ask me for something).We lose touch with people all the time -- in our professional lives and personal lives -- for various reasons.For example, this year, with the birth of our second baby, followed by our relocation across the country, along with my involvement in completing my book I haven't been able to stay in touch with many people. After all, there's only so much time in the day!Then, when it comes time to reconnect, many people feel awkward about it.

This basic management principle will go a long way toward helping managers raise the productivity of their organizations. Yet, in their haste to get the job done, many managers forget this principle and focus more on punishment than reward.Back in my corporate life, my company hired a management trainer to come into our organization to help us fine-tune our management skills. I’ll never forget one of the techniques he used to teach us this principle.First, he sent one of the seminar attendees out of the room. Then he asked one of us to hide a playing card. If I remember correctly, the card was hidden inside one of the books on the shelf in the meeting room. The attendee was then called back into the room and asked to fi

I've learned important lessons over my 15 year career as a cleaning and restoration business owner and one of the more important lessons is that trying to learn every little detail about every business function will DRIVE YOU CRAZY! Having said that it's still important to understand key concepts of your business and options, but trying to learn all the details of taxes, the legal system, business structure, etc. will most likely stunt your business growth or add many unnecessary years to becoming extremely successful.Your Advisory StaffAs stated above, there are functions in your business that you need to fully understand; but you can't possibly or even need to understand every little detail. That's what an Advisory
The amount of information that you choose to share about yourself is totally up to you. You may want to put up photos, a written journal (blog), your favourite music files, favourite Internet links, and even videos about your life. Videoblogs take this to the next level where Ruferians talk to their world via video files. Did I forget to mention podcasting? Talk to your friends or just talk to the world and people can get a sonic glimpse of your personal point of view.
Besides the mandatory personal websites, people revolving around the Dog Star are encouraged to have multiple sites for different purposes. As they are a very entrepreneurial planet, the main type of web site that people voluntarily take part in are ones relating to business, although on Ruferius they call business ‘sharingness’. This is because of their strongly held belief that all actions done to better the self should also better the masses. Work is seen as an opportunity to help the world, as well as putting food on the table and a roof over your head. The concept is that if you share your talents and knowledge with others, we’ll get all the necessary jobs done, working together for each other, hence the word, ‘sharingness’.
If you’ve got an idea or skill that you feel could benefit society you make a website for it. Then when others search for keywords related to any specific subject, say skydiving (What are the benefits of skydiving?) your site with your skydiving company will be listed for people to check out. If your price is right and your site has a personable ambience about it, you can bet that soon all the adrenalin junkies in the near vicinity will be making bookings to jump from your plane.
If you’re a lonely soul who spends much of your time focussed on your hobby of painting miniature airplanes, you create a website based around your love and soon after you’ve got other airplane buffs to talk to, meet up with, or even become friends with. This is why there aren’t any lonely people on Ruferius. There’s always someone else out there who is interested in what you like, no matter how rare your interest is. Gee, on Ruferius there’s even a website dedicated to people who paint their pets’ toe nails. It gets hundreds of page views, people chat in the forums thus forming a mini-community, and ‘sharingness’ ads are displayed for people’s products related to the site’s main subject (like purple hamster #9 sparkle polish). Having the ads displayed on the site means that the site owner can even make a few energy credits (that’s what they call money) so that they can get a few more things done, one of whi
