The Fastest Growing Company in the World Part 2 What is the S-WORD?
So you want to have the fastest growing company in the world. Any one coach or entrepreneur can tell you it takes teamwork, time management, organizational, innovation and task-driven skills.Almost always right, but what does it take to make a great company in the world today? Is it technology, partly; innovation, partly; but not completely.What makes the best companies rise to the top? What makes a company go from $0-$1,000,000 in 1 year. What makes a company go from $0-$1,000,000,000 in 1 year? Gee I just want to get to $100,000 the start-up entrepreneur says. How do I get there? How can I expand? This will take a lot of time! I don't have the capital! Never done this before! Ok, so it's not like a baby being born can run a short sprint. But over time depending on the resources, influence and training...how about a little jog, a little

Enron: Skilling & Lay: How Much Blame?
The question about how much blame is not about determining any verdict of guilty or not guilty as the courts will do this. It really relates to shareholders, employees, community and country losses suffered as a result of the collapse.In the end various parties have and may still be found to have a portion of the blame and shareholders and employees who have suffered most are certainly keen to see final outcomes to this situation. However one of the major contributors may never be accounted for; this being the market itself. The market (stock market) is made up of many components and this certainly includes investors.When we ask how much blame we are really looking at dollars lost. During the 2000 year the share price reached $US90 plus, in March/April 2001 period it was around $US55 to $US60. On 19th December 2001 the price was $US 0.19

Let's face it, starting your own business is no small task. People think owning their own business will make them rich and in control. On the contrary, owning your own business will be the hardest thing you've ever done. A business owner must be able to wear all the hats of the business, including taking out the trash and answering the phone. Being self-employed takes dedication and the desire to succeed. If you think you can get investors to give you tons of money and think you'll just hire people to run your business for you, you're sadly mistaken.

Money

Most business owners start off with little or no money. You may be able to get a loan or investors, but be very careful when using someone else's money. A typical bank loan is the safest way to get your business up and running, but be prepared to put up collateral such as your car or even your home. I was able to get a loan for $10,000 to buy my computer equipment and use the equipment as collateral against the loan. Now let's talk about investors.

Anytime you bring in outside money, be prepared for someone else to want to be in charge. Remember that you're using their money to get started, and the investor will expect a portion of the business through ownership and/or control. Make sure you're incorporated at this point. Never start a partnership, especially when there is an outside investor involved. Keep in mind that its a good idea to have a business plan before looking to get money from investors or the bank. Let's say that you have all the money you need and you're ready to begin. Y

Short Term Goals, Long Term Planning
An article in the Atlanta Journal & Constitution on July 19th featured Eddie Turner, owner of the small business, Footwhere, which sells dirt from various locations in the form of keychains. Turner discusses how the 1996 Olympic Games provided a boost to his business, but noted that “the devotion of so much time to those projects sometimes alienated longtime customers,” according to the AJC.Sometimes in small business, we can throw ourselves into a new project or market, a method of attracting new clients. Enthusiasm is good, and customers are necessary to growth and profits, but we don’t want to run the risk of losing established customers in the process.When you embark on some type of project or marketing scheme, whether it involves preparing for a trade show or for the Olympics, make sure you compensate by continuing to maintain conta

Ten Steps to Planning Your Job Search
I read somewhere once that it can take on average about 500 hours to find a new job – the ‘right’ job, but that most people give up at 40-50 hours. What make these latter people lose sight of what they were after? I personally think a big reason is not having a good plan to help them keep focused and motivated. So here are a few tips I have gathered from how some of my clients have successfully executed their job searches.1) Be clear about why you are searching for a new job Do you need to get out of the job you are in right now sooner rather than later? Or is it time to go for the next logical step on your career path – and only the ‘right job’ wil do? If you know what’s driving your job search, it’s easier to keep focused and remember for the sake of what you are choosing to spend some of your freetime on the job search proce

ol. Make sure you're incorporated at this point. Never start a partnership, especially when there is an outside investor involved. Keep in mind that its a good idea to have a business plan before looking to get money from investors or the bank. Let's say that you have all the money you need and you're ready to begin. You should first start a business plan and determine your goals over the next 3 to 5 years. Include how much money it will cost you, including employees, insurance, rent, etc... Make sure you include all of the goals of your company and how much money you expect to make and how you plan to make it. A business plan is a good way to have your goals laid out in front of you and help make your business more successful.

Corporation or Sole Proprietorship

After you've determined what you plan to do, you should decide if you plan to make your company into a corporation or a sole proprietorship. If your business consists of more than you as the owner, my suggestion is to get incorporated. If you're incorporated - you can better protect yourself from the other partners, taxes and lawsuits. Consult with your CPA and corporate attorney to determine the best type of corporation for you and your partners. A sole proprietorship is the simplest way to operate a business. You pay fewer taxes and don't have the corporate hassles. It's also the least regulated business, but you're at greater risk. For example, when you're a sole proprietor, you're personally responsible for all business debt and damages from lawsuits. If someone sues you and they win, they cou
