Advice About Setting Up Your Own Business

2010-07-08T11:29:00.000-07:00

Are you thinking about setting up your own business? Have you an idea for a new business but are unsure about how to proceed? If you have answered yes to either of these questions, this article could be of benefit to you. I am going to write about how to plan and create a successful small business.

Many people are looking at ways in which they can become self-employed as they have had enough of being dictated to and fed up of long and frustrating commutes to work. They want the freedom of being their own boss and to be able to choose their own hours of work.

Leaving a full time career can be quite a scary prospect however. The security of having a regular income and other benefits such as a pension and a share save scheme can seem hard to let go. I am sure many people whether rightly or wrongly have opted to stick with this security and to merely keep their business plan as an idea, which they never see through or use.

Other people are willing and happy to take the risk and see it as a way of getting out of the rat race.

When you have an idea for a new business you then need to think of a name to call it. I would keep this name quite short as it makes it easier to remember for people. It obviously needs to have something to do with the business sector you are entering.

You will now need to work out how much money you will need to set up the business. This can be quite daunting but is essential. In the short term I would advise to keep these start up costs as low as possible, you can always buy or rent better machinery in the future as an example.

Once you are aware of how much money you need, you then have to find it. You may have enough yourself via savings or a redundancy payout, however most people are not in this position. If you do not have enough money, you could try and raise money via the family, by seeking a partner or by releasing the equity from your house. There is also the option of a business loan.

The next stage is to market your product or service. There are many ways of doing this including:

The internet via a website

An advert in the newspaper

Direct marketing in the form of leaflets

An advert in the yellow pages

Exhibitions

Trade fairs

I would advise finding out where other people from your industry advertise as they will have tried and tested many of the above options.

You then need to work out how much to charge for your product or service. I always keep these charges fairly low at the outset in order to attract as many people as I can and to get some income in. I then hope that word of mouth will take over and the idea is that after a few months I will be in a position to increase my fees.

It is also important to realise that we will make mistakes along the way. When this happens we need to think positive and not to beat ourselves up. It is an experience we can learn from.

Always have belief in yourself. At times any business will go through a rocky period, this is when we need to be strong. In my opinion the more work we put in, the more rewards we are likely to obtain.

Self-discipline is one of the keys to your success. Being able to choose your own hours of work may seem like a dream but it can prove to be many peoples downfall. We have to ensure that we work the required amount of hours. It is far too easy to stay in bed for that extra hour or to arrange yet another game of golf. These things are fine once you are established, but this is a long way off at this stage.

A Simple Get Rich Quick Idea

2010-07-08T11:28:00.000-07:00

In the immortal words of Emmerson, "all I need is one idea" Overnight wealth has a certain stigma that "sensible" people seem to be resistant to. The idea of the get rich quick variety is an object of ridicule and derision in alot of peoples eyes. However, with a little focused action and the right knowledge, rapid wealth is not only possible for you, but inevitable for the determined.

The first thing I want to do is qualify the above by saying "quick" means several years not overnight. Sure, you could write a hit song or contemporary book but these have alot to do with chance. People with determination generally don't like chance because control is a solid aspect of wealth generation.

Anyone can have an idea. By that I mean virtually any idea can become workable unless its just totally "out there" What matters is that you act. But more then that, before you act, you must know how to make it work. Thats really what most people with a good idea lack.

So knowledge again is where the central workability comes from. So let me give you some knowledge right now. The knowledge of the wealthy. There are many ways to get rich very rapidly but I offer you an example below and some insights about what the wealthy know and have known for centuries.

Arbitrage is a concept that you should learn more about. Its a word that circulates in financial circles and is therefore obscured to the average person as just some odd french word that the stock market people use.

The truth is that arbitrage is the single biggest idea about wealth that you should understand. Doing an arbitrage deal is literally this........If I offered you 70 cents for your crisp clean dollar note would you take the deal? What if you had $100,000 and I had $75,000 and I said look, let me deposit this money into your account in exchange for your money? Straight swap. How would you feel about that?

Well I imagine you'd say no. I wouldn't blame you, its hardly a fair deal. Arbitraguers do this all day long. But this is the difference.

We deal in value and perceptions not numerical currency like cash. Or we deal wholesale and sell retail. There are hundreds of ways that I can swap my 70 cents for somebody elses dollar.

The wealthy have practiced arbitrage for as long as currency existed because arbitrage is the secret road to wealth. A secret that will never be openly talked about because it is so tightly held. My little contribution here will do nothing to change that balance, but consider yourself fortunate to learn about this and maybe it will spurr you on to a new life.

Here is a real world example of arbitrage that I practiced many years ago, when I was starting out broke, dejected, but hopeful.

It wasnt long ago but seems like centuries ago. Its pre-history now. One form of arbitrage is the concept of economies of scale. This arbitrage strategy relies on a single fact. An irrefutable reality about fiscal life on the planet earth. Here it is. When you buy something (of anything) in bulk, you are entitled to and more often then not get a very large discount on your purchase. When this bulk amount is "split up" and re-sold in traditional more popular chunks, your investment will return a decent profit.

So here is a get rich quick idea. One you can use right now to establish an income stream to replace your daily job. It can be reproduced and systemized to manufacture a very healthy income indeed.

When you look at newspaper and local journal price lists, you will notice they are very yielding to this concept of economies of scale. Simply a small ad may cost $140 for example. But buy a full page and you only pay say $900. Why? because its less work for the publication. Well my idea was to start a weekly page called "Martins Market" I approached 200 business owners face to face and told them they can get a small ad in my one page spread "Martins Market" for just $90 a full $50 cheaper then if they bought their ad from the paper directly. Do you think this offer interested a good percentage of the business owners I approached? You bet! Not only that, but they got a further discount if they paid up 6 months in advance.

I could fit 40 ads of that size onto my page. Being filled up, I made $3600 every week for an outlay of $900 for the page. I added value with nice graphics and the page got quite well recieved as my clients reported good returns from their ads. This was reproduced 20 times around the country, with 2 sales staff for every "Martins Market" I was netting close to $20,000 per week for a fairly lengthy period.

You will need a few dollars to try this, but its inevitable that if you do your research properly you can make this work and get exactly the same results.

My very best to you

3 Must Know, To Survive In Affiliate Marketing

2008-03-23T07:25:00.000-07:00

Every affiliate marketer is always looking for the successful market that gives the biggest paycheck. Sometimes they think it is a magic formula that is readily available for them. Actually, it is more complicated than that. It is just good marketing practices that have been proven over years of hard work and dedication. There are tactics that have worked before with online marketing and is continuing to work in the online affiliate marketing world of today. With these top three marketing tips, you will be able to able to increase your sales and survive in the affiliate marketing online.

Here are the 3 Things you need to survive as an Affiliate Marketer

1. Using unique web pages to promote each separate product you are marketing. Do not lump all of it together just to save some money on web hosting. It is best to have a site focusing on each and every product and nothing more.

Always include product reviews on the website so visitors will have an initial understanding on what the product can do to those who buys them. Also include testimonials from users who have already tried the product. Be sure that these customers are more than willing to allow you to use their names and photos on the site of the specific product you are marketing.

You can also write articles highlighting the uses of the product and include them on the website as an additional page. Make the pages attractive compelling and include calls to act on the information. Each headline should attract the readers to try and read more, even contact you. Highlight your special points. This will help your readers to learn what the page is about and will want to find out more.

2. Offer free reports to your readers. If possible position them at the very top side of your page so it they simply cannot be missed. Try to create autoresponder messages that will be mailed to those who input their personal information into your sign up box. According to research, a sale is closed usually on the seventh contact with a prospect.

Only two things can possibly happen with the web page alone: closed sale or the prospect leaving the page and never return again. By placing useful information into their inboxes at certain specified period, you will remind them of the product they thought they want later and will find out that the sale is closed. Be sure that the content is directed toward specific reasons to buy the product. Do not make it sound like a sales pitch.

Focus on important points like how your product can make life and things easier and more enjoyable. Include compelling subject lines in the email. As much as possible, avoid using the word "free" because there are still older spam filters that dumps those kind of contents into the junk before even anyone reading them first. Convince those who signed up for your free reports that they will be missing something big if they do not avail of your products and services.

3. Get the kind of traffic that is targeted to your product. Just think, if the person who visited your website has no interest whatsoever in what you are offering, they will be among those who move on and never come back. Write articles for publication in e-zines and e-reports. This way you can locate publications that is focusing on your target customers and what you have put up might just grab their interest.

Try to write a minimum of 2 articles per week, with at least 300-600 words in length. By continuously writing and maintaining these articles you can generate as many as 100 targeted readers to your site in a day. Always remember that only 1 out of 100 people are likely to buy your product or get your services. If you can generate as much as 1,000 targeted hits for your website in a day, that means you can made 10 sales based on the average statistic.

The tactics given above does not really sound very difficult to do, if you think about it. It just requires a little time and an action plan on your part.

Try to use these tips for several affiliate marketing programs. You can end maintaining a good source of income and surviving in this business that not all marketers can do. Besides, think of the huge paychecks you will be receiving... 'Remember if you look in the right Direction all is good in the World" jp

Social Network Today

2008-03-13T05:44:00.000-07:00

With any social network today, joining groups, and interacting is a must. Being sure your blog site url is available, this will help greatly in your friends getting to know you better. Be sure to list your blog url at every social network you have a profile. Set up some time, every 2 to 5 days, a minimum is once a week for your social networks.

Prioritize the social networks you are a member of. Give them a rank of sorts on which ones you visit more often. If you know you will be super busy one week, let every know what you are doing, so they won't miss you too much. Everyone here is your friend and I know I worry when I don't here from someone in my group for a week or better. Keeping in touch with your new friends is important.

Always be kind, even in a disagreement or when you are commenting. There is always a chance for disagreements with any social network today, but keeping your thoughts and word friendly, respectful, and pleasant is always appreciated. Make friends and add every one you are able to and see who you like best out of the group and get to know those people. People are cool! And everyone has things that they are good at and know about. You can tell them about stuff you know....hobbies, interests, Vacations you took, what kind of pet you have and love, anything that you would like to share.

Put your business aside and in your profile area. Using the signature for your blog site url is a much more personal way to introduce yourself than to shout "Here, Look at My Business".

Asking questions is best, but only if you really are interested in what the answer is and joining or starting a group can be a fun way to meet like minded friends. One of the best groups to join is a blogging group. Those interested in blogging, the bloggers of the social networks are online alot! You will be able to talk to them more frequently. And list your blog site in with social network group.

Blogging and Social networks have been called one of the addicting fads. Many teenagers have resorted to blogging as an outlet for their emotions in a positive way. Teenagers and young people as well as the older blogging crowd, have new artistic talents and great informational articles out there posted in the social network sites or on personal blog sites.

Many online bloggers and people in the social network today, write reviews. Reviews are meant for your personal opinion on any topic in the known Universe! Be sure to review mainly that what you enjoy! But, throw in a well worded review here and there about a topic, site, or blog that could be better and why you think so. What social network today is really all about is getting closer to a family of friends in the World, not just your home town. It is brilliant to me that so many are looking for new friends and conversation buddies.

That's pretty much the base line of the social network today, meet friends, have fun, and set up a great profile...Enjoy!

Everybody Sells What I Sell? or Do They?

2008-03-05T08:08:00.000-08:00

Author: manoj kumar

Years ago, I took over as a manager of a restaurant in a major city. As expected, we had a good sized lunch rush every day, but the place never seemed to be filled.

The previous manager, although well-intentioned, had been gruff with customers and staff alike. Most of the staff was teenagers, and sometimes I didn't blame him. Look, I was a teenager myself, and can remember not always being the best employee. Not because I was bad, but just because I was a teenager. You remember? Right?

Anyway, I worked with the departing manager of about a month and then I was in charge.

One of the first things I did, even before the old manager left, was to make sure I called everyone, including my 16-year-old employees, "sir" and "ma'am. I also made certain they got plenty of praise for a job well done and gentle but firm guidance (always in private) when they erred.

It wasn't long before, "YO! Dude! Bring me some ketchup!" was replaced by "Excuse me, sir (or ma'am)! Could you please bring me some ketchup?"

Over the next few weeks, the lunch crowd slowly began to grow, as did the dinner crowd, and I wasn't absolutely certain why. I DID know that my young ladies and gentlemen were making the customers feel more comfortable in our establishment, and the employees themselves were taking on more responsibility for taking care of the customers and getting the job done and seemed to be enjoying themselves in the process.

Of course, we had our regulars, and one day I noticed a pair of gentlemen I had never seen before. What struck me was that they were watching the employees and me with eagle eyes. As I moved around the room, chatting briefly with diners and making sure they were taken care of, one of the men called me to his table.

This is what he told me...

He and his friend worked in a nearby office building and had once been regular lunch customers, but had quit coming in several months before I came to work there. The reason they had stopped dining at our establishment was simply that they did not like the way the previous manager had treated the employees, and they had also felt the trickle-down effect in the negative way the employees interacted with customers and other employees.

Recently, people in their building had begun talking about how pleasant it had become to eat in our restaurant since the "new manager" had taken over. They had decided to check it out for themselves. Even though they enjoyed the food and the restaurant was nearby, they had been choosing to go elsewhere because of their discomfort in the previous atmosphere. They told me that they were extremely pleased with their experience and really liked the way I treated the employees and the employees treated each other and the customers. They definitely would be returning regularly.

THE MENU AND FOOD PREPARATION HAD NOT CHANGED.

THE FACILITIES WERE THE SAME.

THE EMPLOYEES WERE THE SAME.

BUT...

THE ATTITUDE AND ATMOSPHERE HAD CHANGED.

With the right attitude and with lots of respect for peers and customers alike, your business can grow even if you sell the same product or service as thousands of other internet or brick-and-mortar businesses.

So! Why not sell service? There's sometimes quite a lack of competition there.

Postscript: Between the time I drafted this article and typed it up, I received an email from a webmaster who complained that while I had a nice website, it was just like several others he had seen, and he doubted I would have any success with it.

Oh well, he's welcome to his opinion, I suppose. I just didn't have the heart to tell him that last month I deposited over $10,000.00 in commissions from a website that everybody else was using.

7 Steps to your Fundraising Success

2008-02-20T10:08:00.000-08:00

Author: Robinn Lange

Fundraising has become an essential element to schools, scouts, sports and cheerleading teams, youth sports leagues, and other community groups in both small towns and major urban areas. The need for fundraising has become of greater importance than ever before for a variety of needs ranging from playground equipment, uniforms, and trips, to primary funding to support and maintain many types of programs and curriculum.

Robinn Lange of Custom Fundraising Programs has enjoyed fundraising success for over twenty five years and says he has noticed the changes in the fundraising landscape. “Fundraising used to be a means to offer or support for supplemental programs or activities, but in today’s world fundraising is being depended on more and more for the survival and primary support for more and more groups, activities, events and programs.

This importance of fundraising in today’s marketplace has created the need for stronger and more successful fundraising programs than can generate impact and results. Fundraising is no longer just a fun activity, but rather an entrepreneurial enterprise - a business.

Parents, students and community members are bombarded and approached with more fundraising solicitations than ever before. Lange says “the one crucial element is to make sure your fundraising efforts do not get lost in the shuffle. You must make sure your fundraising campaigns are properly executed to position yourself to achieve the best results possible.”

The good news is Lange offers seven important steps you can implement to help to insure your fundraising success.

1. Create A Good Fundraising Team
This is one of the first and often most overlooked aspects of a successful fundraising program. Your team is the heart and soul of your fundraiser. Even though it is often difficult to get volunteers and quality people to be part of your fundraising team, one of the biggest mistakes that can be made is just accepting anyone onto your team. Seek people that are driven, motivated, and share your fundraising vision. Those who can attain their given goals. Confident, self-starters who can take direction, yet be able to function and operate on their own.

It is better to have a smaller team of like-minded and motivated members than to have a larger team with some weak links.

Take the time to find the right people for your team. Talk to them, learn their interests, discover their strengths and weaknesses, and then put the best qualified person in their most appropriate position.

Do your homework and make the effort and you will find that this is time well spent as you are creating the strongest foundation possible for your fundraising abilities.

2. Selecting The Right Fundraiser
Equally as important as assembling the best fundraising team as possible, is selecting the right and proper fundraiser itself. Factors such as the length of your campaign, the season or timeframe of your campaign, the size of your committee or team, the amount expected to be raised, and your target market and demographics are just some of the key elements that
should be considered to assist you to select the right fundraising program.

Let your fundraiser stand out from the pack. The market is saturated with many of the same typical fundraisers such as candy, candles, wrapping paper, cookie dough, discount cards and so on. While some of these may have the potential to offer decent results, you may find your efforts are greatly improved and better accepted by your target audience by offering a different type of fundraiser. Custom fundraising products, live event and family entertainment fundraisers, and other unique fundraising ideas can assist you in offering that “something different or special” element than can allow your campaign to stand out and be better accepted and a welcomed relief from the typical standards.

Explore your options and ideas. What programs really excite your team and can create excitement in your market? Take the time and effort to carefully examine these factors to select a winning fundraiser.

3. Plan Your Fundraising Success
Many times the lack of proper planning is the reason behind a lack of expected results. Chart out your fundraiser from your first step through completion. By creating a plan to execute your fundraiser you and your entire team will be able to see the big picture.

Plan out all facets of your fundraiser including staffing, dates, times, promotion, product distribution, ticket sales, accounting, meetings, and any other pertinent details than may be included in your overall plan.

4. Set Your Goals
Along with the proper planning of your fundraiser is the creation and execution of your goals. Creating a written set of goals allows you to see your starting point, where you are each step of the way, and where your final goals are at all times.

Having these written goals also helps keep your team invested and aware of their expectations, while also being a fantastic way to measure and track their results and progress. Your team will enjoy a great feeling of pride and accomplishment as each goal is reached during your campaign. There is no better feeling than to meet your expected goals and even surpassing them to achieve greater success. This also promotes team spirit and overall motivation of all of your team or committee members.

5. Manage Your Fundraising Team
Once you team is in place, your plans and goals have been determined, it is crucial to properly manage your fundraising team. Make your your leaders and team members are clear on their role and duties. Make sure they have the tools and materials to succeed. Identify any strengths and weaknesses that may exist. Tend to the weaknesses and play to your strengths. Who are your teams “superstars”? Who needs special attention and reinforcement and perhaps personal motivation? What combinations of team members work well together and produce the best results?

Managing your team while assisting and supporting your team leaders will put you on the fast track to your desired expectations.

6. Promote And Spread The Word
After all of the team, goals and organizational efforts are in place, the priority is the continual promotion of your fundraising campaign. Your main objective is to make sure as much of your target audience as possible becomes aware of your fundraising program.

Spread the word in anyway you can including as many methods and resources as
possible. Although you must have a combination of promotional methods and techniques, the most beneficial is still word of mouth promotion. Let everyone you encounter be made aware of your fundraiser and the important cause or benefactor to your efforts. Promote the reason for your fundraiser and remind your target or potential customers that they are
helping your cause and objective. People want to feel that they can help to make a difference.

You will soon find the amount of promotion directly affects your final results, so promote, promote and promote even more.

7. Motivate Your Fundraising Team
The importance of maintaining the proper focus and motivation is also very important to your fundraising success. Different people get bored or lose motivation at different levels. Stay on top of your team members and offer support and motivation to each member as needed. Acknowledge their successes and accomplishments, remind them of your goals, and reinforce their importance to your team’s overall success.

Avoid “fundraising fatigue” or burnout. Offer incentives and rewards to your team members for achievements.

Maintain the spirit, attitude and enthusiasm of your team members. The right positive attitude is infectious. Being aware of these factors should help you to keep everyone focused and on track to attain your desired results.

By following these seven steps your fundraising campaign will be managed properly and positioned for optimum success. “While these steps may appear to be a more business¬like approach, this is how fundraisers must operate to attain your goals, succeed in today’s potentially saturated market, and prevail even in difficult times.” Lange states that these
steps work well with all styles of fundraisers and offer immediate and residual benefits.

bisnis online dan offline

2008-01-24T03:00:00.000-08:00

hari ini saya punya kesimpulan menarik: bisnis online dan bisnis offline sama menariknya. tergantung pada barang, pasar yang ditarget. kalau anda suka berbisnis online, pasar Indonesia masih jarang menggunakan kartu kredit. masih ada ketakutan dengan sistem keamanannya. berbeda sekali dengan bisnis offline: ada uang ada barang.

jika ingin berbisnis, maka saran saya, pilih mana yang cocok untuk anda mulai. persiapkan semuanya sebelum memulai. bisnis offline dan bisnis online memiliki karakter tersendiri.

Jadi Pedagang di Internet

2008-01-15T08:34:00.000-08:00

ZLIO dan AMAZON

Bagi siapa saja yang berminat jadi pedagang di internet, tapi gak punya barang, jangan putus asa. Masih banyak kesempatan untuk jadi pedagang di dunia serba mungkin ini. Saran saya, ikutlah di program afiliasi AMAZON atau ZLIO. Bisa salah satunya, atau keduanya. Tidak ada yang melarang jika anda memiliki keduanya.

Dua perusahaan dagang ini memberikan kesempatan kepada siapa pun untuk menjual barang-barang yang diiklankan di situs mereka. Mereka sudah mempersiapkan barang-barangnya. Mulai dari harga, jenis produk, desain situs, dan sebagainya. Masing-masing memberikan kemudahan.

Persyaratannya mudah sekali. Yang penting punya alamat e-mail. Untuk alamat e-mail bisa dibuat di Gmail.com atau Yahoo.com. Ini dua alamat penyedia e-mail gratis yang sudah populer. Saat mendaftar di ZLIO dan AMAZON, alamat e-mail ini yang anda gunakan.

Yang jelas, semuanya gratis. Tak perlu membayar sepeserpun untuk terlibat dalam jaringan mereka.

Setelah mendaftar, anda tinggal memilih desain situs dagang yang disukai (ZLIO), kemudian pilih sendiri barang-barang yang ingin anda jual. Saran saya, juga menurut pedagang dunia maya yang berpengalaman, sebisa mungkin toko online ini memuat barang sejenis saja. misalnya, toko buku, ya semua barang yang dipilih buku-buku saja. atau misalnya, toko kosmetik, ya pilih saja barang-barang yang berhubungan dengan kosmetik. Ini maksudnya untuk memudahkan pembeli memilih barang. Oh ya, untuk di ZLIO, nama toko onlinenya bisa pilih sendiri. Sebisanya cari nama toko yang unik, agar menarik perhatian.

Setelah toko online siap….tinggal promosikan saja kemana-mana. Gak jauh seperti pedagang biasa yang menawarkan produk kepada calon pembeli.

Anda perlu tahu bahwa ZLIO dan AMAZON memiliki kelebihan masing-masing. Stok barang di AMAZON banyak sekali. Pilih barang yang mau dijual sesuai minat. Sedangkan di ZLIO, stok barang ya lumayan banyak tapi belum sebanyak AMAZON. Di sisi lain, Zlio menyediakan desain toko online sekaligus membolehkan memakai nama sendiri.

Masih minat jadi pedagang? Silakan mencoba! Saya berharap anda berhasil jadi pedagang.
