Cliche or Good Idea?

Going the Extra Mile
Have you ever had to make a purchase and the ONLY sales person available was grouchy, irritable and obviously not happy to be there? The person acts as if it is an inconvenience for you to be in their establishment, spending your money, supporting their store. This is the epitome of an awful experience, but we have all had it. As small business owners, we know that optimal customer service is key. Anyone can get ANYTHING at WalMart, but I choose to shop at small family owned stores to support the local economy. Just the other day I went into my local…

Top 3 Internet Marketing Myths Debunked
In the web design and internet marketing business, we consistently answer the same customer questions about hiring our firm. Some are the result of “myths,” some are the mother of invention. Either way, there are a lot of small business owners in need of web development, internet marketing or sometimes, just revisions to what they already have.

What if we said no to poor business practices-How Successful We Could Be!
Just say NO to….
1. Poor hiring. Just say no to hiring the wrong person. I know it can be…

Getting Out From Under “The Man”
Entrepreneurship has been on my mind. At what point did you decide that working 18 hours a day to make your dreams come true was for you? Maybe you always knew… Maybe you worked 18 hours a day for “the man” and decided that was for the birds. I mean if you’re going to work your fingers to the bone thanklessly, shouldn’t you be working for you?
Being an entrepreneur is one of the hardest jobs out there, maybe aside from being a stay-at-home mom (where you also work 18 hours a day!), and it is not for the faint of heart. If…

Teamwork Divides the Task and Doubles the SUCCESS.
How many times, as a small business owner, have you had to do something you had no idea of how to accomplish? When you’re working to find out how to accomplish these tasks instead of actually completing them you are, in fact, wasting time. Granted, you are learning something new, albeit at a frustrating pace and still have not finished the task you set out on. This is why building your team is crucial.
Team building as an entrepreneur is sometimes tricky. You usually have a lot of needs and not enough cash flow. This is why working with other…
