Doing Business With Friends: Five Tips for Preserving the Friendship... and Your Sanity!
My colleague, Jane, recently lamented to me an all too familiar story about mixing business and friendship. Jane subcontracted copywriting work out her friend, Joan. Jane’s copywriting business was blossoming (partly in response to her most recent brilliant article marketing campaign) and giving the work to Joan seemed like a win-win for both of them.As expected, Joan delivered a glorious first draft. The only problem was halfway through the discussed project, Joan suddenly disappeared!It turned out that Joan was becoming overwhelmed with juggling her own work and the freelance work. The freelance work sunk to the bottom of her priority list because, hey, Jane was her friend and she wouldn’t mind. However,

Reducing the Risk of Failure in CRM Implementations
There are many software applications available for managing customer interactions, or customer relationship management (CRM). It is a mistake to assume that once you've seen one, you've seen them all, because they are not all the same.One of the easiest ways a prospective client can reduce the risk of failure in CRM implementations is to fully engage and co-operate during the discovery phase.Some prospects are reluctant to provide information about their businesses and keep insisting "I know what I want". Unless a person has actually implemented CRM applications before, knowing what you want and knowing how to implement it in your CRM application are two different things.It is wise to engage in the disc

AdSense and the Hidden Mysteries of the Internet
I’ve been using AdSense for a very long time, and I think I’ve got it figured out pretty well. I understand how ads need to look to get people to click, I know where to put them and it’s pretty rare for my units to show anything other than ads that are highly contextualized. Maybe I could optimize some of the pages a little better (heck, no one’s perfect) but on the whole, I think I can say that I know how the system works and I’ve got it working pretty well for me.And yet, there are times when I haven’t a clue what’s going on.I can look at a week of stats and see my CTR bumping along quite nicely, then all of a sudden there will be a dip one day and a spike the next.Nothing will have changed. My set up

Welcome Back to Your Life – Outsourcing and the Entrepreneur
When’s the last time you took a vacation? Can you remember the last time you actually stopped working to eat lunch or God forbid, took a sick day? Do you remember your kids’ names?Ok, maybe that last one is a bit extreme, but let’s face it, as entrepreneurs, there is little time left for life outside of work. Yes, to be successful in starting your own business, you must be driven, even obsessed at times, but at what cost?We lose sleep. We lose time with friends and families. We most certainly sacrifice such frivolities as hobbies, exercise, relaxation, etc.In the beginning of a new venture, all of these sacrifices are necessary evils. However, far too often, many of us fail to re-assess our level of obs

Brandishing the Pen: The Art of Fencing Words
When responding to a Lance Winslow post on the ezinearticles.com blog I noticed my words were sharper than intended this morning. After rereading my entry, I considered deleting the post, but then I wondered - why?I wasn’t making any comments that were intended to hurt anyone, although I probably offended people who stand on that line of propriety where offence is easily taken. My words were offered in joking response to other comments, and nothing I said was particularly offensive, considering the context.However, words can be a mighty sword. They can wield a man useless, or raise him to utter accomplishment.As a writer, I’m often faced with the responsibility of my words, how they might be

Creating Business Plans: Why So Hard?
Artists beware! By far, the most difficult areas in creating successful and agreeable business plans have to do with working within proposed budgets and agreeing upon realistic time constraints. Typically, from my experience in providing the service of wedding photography, there are many hidden hours working on projects where clients typically underestimate processing time, skill level, and time spent in correspondence with them. I worry about my client accepting the cost of what it takes to pull together a top-notch product.For instance, if I had a set of photographs on hand for a project and showed the pictures to a client prior to writing up a business plan, in many cases, the client would want me to throw in the
