Delegate: Tasks Must To Go To The Right Person
SELECTING THE RIGHT PERSON: To whom should tasks be delegated? Selecting the right subordinate to do the work is an evaluative process, and managers must be able to identify individuals both capable and willing to handle responsibility.DETERMINING EMPLOYEE RESPONSIBILITY: A careful review should be made of past assumptions about personnel. Some employees’ capabilities may be overestimated, others underestimated. A personnel survey or personal interview is an excellent tool managers can use to reassess their subordinates, determine what additional duties each believes he or she can now adequately handl

Whether doing my weekly radio show, teaching entrepreneurial classes, or doing personal coaching, I talk to a lot of would-be entrepreneurs these days and I’m discovering that many of them are suffering from what I call, "I Don’t Syndrome" or IDS.

IDS is a sad malady that affects many people who claim they want to start their own business, but never seem to get beyond just talking about it. The symptoms of IDS are a lack of belief in themselves, a fear of failure and ridicule, a misguided belief that lots of money is required to start a business, and lousy time management skills. IDS can even cause an otherwise intelligent person to question their own sanity. It’s a sad disease that prevents thousands of people every year from achieving their American Dream.

But there is hope. IDS can be cured simply by facing it head on and accepting the fact that not everyone is cut out to be an entrepreneur. Don’t beat yourself up if you’re more comfortable working for someone else. Just accept the fact that business is not for you and strive to be the absolute best employee you can be and you’ll achieve success in that arena.

If you’re dead-set on starting your own business and IDS is keeping you up at night, consider the following symptoms and suggested cures.

"I don’t have time to start a business." I hear this one all the time from people who spend five hours a night parked in front of the TV. Sorry, couch potato, you get zero sympathy from me. You must make time for what’s important to you, so if starting your own business is important to you, find the time to make it happen. I started my business from the corner of my tiny bedroom working between the hours of ten at night till whenever I passed out in the wee hours of th

Make Rich and Powerful Friends
1. They influence your luckIt has been wisely said that a man is known by the company he keeps. By observing the friendly circle of a person we can tell about his character and traits. If you move with the drunkards you will get their habits and start drinking. If you move with the poets you will soon develop a way of thinking like theirs. And if you move with the rich and powerful you will soon learn from them the art of becoming rich and powerful. Rich or powerful people are the parts of the same coin. If a person has a lot of wealth he is also powerful. And a person who has political power mos

Two Marketing Trends that will Affect Your Business
The economy and market place are changing rapidly. The growth of the Internet are making consumers more demanding than ever. As a result, marketers have begun to identify a class of people that is quickly being defined as the "Accumulator Class." This group is one of two major trends in marketing that this article will focus on and it has has the following unique characteristics:* Typically, they are in their mid 30s to early 50s.* They are one of the top income generating groups. They are affluent or are optimistic in their ability to be affluent and want to leverage their time towards t

usands of people every year from achieving their American Dream.

Small Business Checking Accounts
ACCOUNTING AND BILLINGCHECK BOOKSWe recommend that you maintain a business checking account in addition to a small business credit card merchant account so that you can take credit cards from purchasers. This way you will know exactly how much is going into your merchant account and how much of your volume percentage is being done through credit card usage. You should shoot for 50-60% credit card sales and debit cards. If you are an owner/operator, you may not be as concerned with this number.However, if you are an owner of many locations or units, this percentage is relatively import

the absolute best employee you can be and you’ll achieve success in that arena.

Change at the Speed of Light
There is a general belief that getting people to change their behaviour is difficult and takes a long time. I can understand this belief when there are so many examples of change taking a long time. Yet I am aware that we like to defend our beliefs and look for evidence to support them. We know that whatever we believe we will seek to make true. TV debating programmes are based upon this principle and it’s what causes so many arguments between people and groups.So what stops people from changing quickly and easily? Is it their deep in-grained habits, or is it their beliefs? Or is it a mix of the two?<

n front of the TV. Sorry, couch potato, you get zero sympathy from me. You must make time for what’s important to you, so if starting your own business is important to you, find the time to make it happen. I started my business from the corner of my tiny bedroom working between the hours of ten at night till whenever I passed out in the wee hours of the morning. Then I’d get up and be at my day job at 8AM. I’d work on the business during my lunch hour and on weekends. There are only so many hours in the day so you have to make the best use of what God gave you. When a spare minute pops up use it to work on your business; otherwise grab the remote and keep your day job.

"I don’t have the money to start a business." Many people are under the misconception that starting a business requires piles of cash. Nothing could be further from the truth. I’d wager that many of the Forbes 100 were started for less than $10,000; many for less than $1,000. When you start a business you should do so for as little money as possible. Put what money you have toward the things that are vital and backburner everything else. Become an expert at stretching every dollar until it screams. Instead of tying up your money in inventory try to negotiate 90 day terms with suppliers. Instead of buying fancy desk chairs park your can on a milk crate until money starts rolling in. Instead of signing a lease for office space that will tie up your first born for five years work from your kitchen table.

"I don’t have the confidence to start a business." When I hear this one I know immediately that I’m talking to someone who will probably never even start a business. Let’s be honest, everyone would start their own business if they had a 100% guaran
