Other Added - Better Business Boundaries
The word ‘entrepreneur’ was derived from French words ‘entre’, which stands for ‘between’ and ‘prendre’, which means ‘to take’. The word was originally tagged to people who take on risk between the buyers and sellers or start a new venture (Barringer and Ireland, 2006). However, in the contemporary business, the essence of the entrepreneurial behaviour is identifying opportunities and putting useful ideas into practice. Therefore entrepreneurship can be defined as the process by which individuals pursue opportunities without reg

Ever heard of non-disclosure agreements? Perhaps, you have heard them referred to as confidentiality agreements, or a similar term. In either case, how familiar are you with them?Are you aware that if you are in a specific business, a non-disclosure agreement can spell the difference between the proverbial life and death of your business, particularly, if your business has employees, contractors or interns?So, what are non-disclosure agreements?Non-disclosure agreements are defined as contracts that restri
Before you get caught in another good lesson, set up your business with strong boundaries. They create a friendly and ethical structure that allows others to find their place with you. They speak volumes about your professionalism and keep both you and your clients on track.
Want only as much for your clients as they want for themselves.
If you find yourself feeling frustrated about your client’s results, you are wanting too much for your client. Challenge them and let go of the outcome. If you can’t let go of the outcome, you may need to let go of the client.
If this is happening often, consider setting criteria for your prospective clients. In my own business as a mentor coach, to avoid getting started with someone who isn’t ready to make progress, I pre-qualify possible clients by asking:

Not many businesses can expect to create a perennial brand like Coca-Cola, but they can learn from Coca-Cola to try to create a rock-solid, lasting, recognizable brand. Why do some brands last for decades and continue to be strong? First, they must build credibility, recognition, track record, reliability, consistency, and they must be memorable. The longer the brand survives, the more entrenched it becomes in our culture.As stated, one of the most important ways to create a long-lasting brand is to be consistent. Do n

Remember trading stamps? If you’re over 40, chances are you will. Every time you shopped at a participating grocery store or gas station they gave you stamps to paste into a book. When you’d accumulated enough stamps, you could cash them in for “free” gifts.These stamps were one of the first loyalty programs. They kept customers loyal to a particular product or merchant because they offered an incentive that encouraged the customer to keep coming back – and spend more money.While trading stamps are a thing of the p

When I stumbled across the company that I am with now, I didn’t know anything about multi level marketing. I was a business owner with twelve employees.One day a gentleman walked into my office wanting to know if he could speak to me and my employees about the discount dental benefits package he had to offer. After he talked about the benefits his company was offering, the subject came up about residual income or repeat income. I didn’t know about residual income, so he explained that every time I would sell the discount

Used medical equipment has become a growing trend as the demand for quality medical equipment increases and the costs of purchasing medical equipment at full price becomes more difficult to do.Keep in mind that our economics are changing all the time and not all companies have a budget to spend as they please these used medical equipment for doctors, hospitals, non profit organizations and more need a way to provide up to date technology without the high costs of purchasing new medical equipment.The problem with us

I’ve found this puts clients on notice that the success of the coaching is largely up to them. It also raises the perceived value of my coaching services because they see that I don’t take on just anyone.
Stand firmly by your chosen fees.
Set fees that will pay you well for the time it takes to market to, coach and manage your clients. If you discount your services because a prospective client won’t afford your fees, in essence you’ve discounted the value of your services. So will your new client. The coaching won’t be as effective because they will be depending on you to take on some of the burden of their financial limitations. This forces you both out of the Co-creative Relationship.
Consider developing group coaching at half price for individuals on a tighter budget. This way you offer them something of value without taking on their financial problems as your own. Once your practice is well developed you can have a client or two on partial scholarship where they pay at a reduced rate for a limited time, say two – three months. The
