Other Added - Never Hire Anyone Dumber Than You Are!
You know that cash is and always will be king. One of the biggest drains on small business cash flow is often out of control past due accounts receivable. I have seen business owners try to tackle the problem by cutting off any new credit and thus running themselves straight out of business. There is an easier way.You can instantly begin to collect more of your past due receivables by making it a priority. Most small businesses that I come across have a haphazard method of collecting receivables in the best of

Menu pricing is one of the most important decisions for any restauranteur. It may look easy, but the fact is that you cannot price it simply by your intuition. It requires consideration, observation and asking certain questions. For instance, do you remember your last visit to a market or a mall as a buyer? How many goods had an acceptable price enticing enough to motivate you to make a purchase? In reality, pricing must be an amount that someone else is ready to pay for your service or product.Creating a restaura
The people onboard aircraft carriers are divided into two groups, those that make the ship float and those that make the planes fly. Those that make the ship float are known as "ship's company", and those that make the planes fly are with "the airwing". During one tour of duty, I was assigned to the "airwing staff". The airwing staff coordinated the activities of the ten aircraft squadrons deployed aboard the aircraft carrier. It was while working for our Airwing Commander, Captain Jerry Norris, that I would unknowingly learn what has to become my most valued rule as an entrepreneur.
Captain Norris was quite the character. A fighter pilot with all the fixings! Tall, handsome, and with enough confident charisma to handle any situation, be that in the air, on land, or at sea. But the truth of it is, none of the eight officers on the staff considered Captain Norris to be the sharpest knife in the drawer.
It wasn't that things were not going well for he or the airwing. It just seemed strange that so simple and relaxed an individual could lead so effectively. You must understand that Captain Norris was in charge of the operations of nearly 3000 men and almost 100 of the most complex flying machines on the planet. But fly we did, and did it well. Our airwing was often singled out for acts of excellence.
It was during a short visit in Cannes, France that Captain Norris was to give me my lesson. Like so many of life's lessons, the lesson was unintended.

A few years ago, I was going through a very difficult time in my professional life. I had finally figured out what my purpose was, and I was excited to share it with the world.I started a business based on my purpose and put my heart and soul into that venture. Not too long after I started, I began to feel really frustrated by the lack of success I was seeing. Try as I might, nothing I did was attracting enough clients to my business.I thought maybe offering different types of products was the answer. I int

If you are dissatisfied with your job, you are in a self-imposed career slump!Why are so many of us in career slumps? Bottom line…we are not doing work that satisfies us! No matter what our employer does for us, if we are not doing work we really want to be doing, in a way that fits our desired life-style, we will never be satisfied.What keeps us in career slumps for so long? The number one thing that keeps us in our slumps is that we believe the “myths” we were told!1. We believe, “I can’t make mo

It is extremely important to a franchise company to maintain consistency throughout each franchise outlet. That consistency should include all equipment and supplies, which are to be used or sold at the franchisee level. Without such consistency you will dilute your brand-name and confuse your customer, thus you will lose one of the major benefits of franchising.It is for this reason that I had determined that our company needed to add a clause in the franchise agreement to address is very issue before the comme

I close my eyes and imagine how free my community would feel if all of its fundraising needs were consistently met. Every child could be adequately clothed, nutritiously fed, and attending a well-equipped school. Local sports teams, the Boy Scouts, etc. could be more affordable – maybe even free -- for struggling families. My hospital could have more beds, staff and equipment which would mean reduced waiting time for scheduled surgeries, or in their emergency waiting rooms. Local cancer clinics, respite

The topic of the evening turned to how smart each of us was compared to our fearless leader. We were even so bold as to believe that he was fearless because he simply did not understand what was going on around him. In fact, it was we who did not understand what was going on around us!
The good Captain was sitting quietly within the sound of our voices. He had heard every one of our comments on his lack of intellect.
As the Commander with the confident charisma approached, we were certain that if we were shown mercy we would be court martialed, and we feared that if the Captain choose not to be merciful, we would just be shot right on sight!
Speaking got us into this predicament, so silence seemed the best choice. Captain Norris spoke. He acknowledged our belief that each of us had among the finest minds in the entire Navy in our specific specialty. He flattered those things that each had done since beginning our assignment with the airwing. Captain Norris offered that he had hand selected each one of us from the entire fleet, having had to call in favors, make threats, and impose demands, just to have each of us work with him. We were there because he believed us to be the best, and he wanted only the best. Seems he held us in the same regard that we held ourselves.
Then Captain Norris spoke to the issue of intellect, specifically our perception of his lack thereof. Captain Norris said, "The mark of the true leader is not one who gives orders, or feigns knowledge, but rather the leader who plants the needed seed in a fertile mind so gently, that the subordinate believes the idea emerged from within."
Continued silence. He was in complete control of our actions and had always been. He
