Other Added - Business Productivity: Are These 7 Strongholds Blocking Your Success?
At every customer-focused company there is a desire to provide the ultimate customer experience, from the CEO on down. What gets lost in translation is the extreme impact that delivering this level of customer service, or failing to do so, has on a company’s bottom line.Consider the impact of a customer’s experience when contacting your company: a satisfied customer typically tells one to three people about a good experience, while an unsatisfied customer talks to as many as 10 people about the bad expe

Not having enough money to finance your business endeavors or having a mound of debt that seem impossible to dig out of, is stressful and a distraction.

There really are three different levels of marketing significance when it comes to your online business.There are three different levels of strategy that result in three different sets of results.1) Advertising – This role is primarily designed to elicit short-term results on a specific campaign or site performance goal.2) Search Engine Optimization (SEO) – This role is designed for long-term growth by getting search engines to recognize your site and view you as trustworthy and deserving
Metaphorically speaking, a stronghold is like a ball and chain in control. It grips, slows you down, stifles and holds you hostage. You will need to weed out, throw out and push out any “thing,” any “body,” any “addiction” or any “situation” that’s smothering, debilitating, controlling or killing your spirit. If your spirit is destroyed, then any thought of productivity in every area of your life dies, unless “you” turn the tables. Some costly strongholds are among these top 7 reasons:
1. Negative thoughts and destructive attitudes:
Devoting too much time and energy on what isn’t working or hasn’t worked, instead of accentuating your assets and making things happen, is harvesting negativity. Once you pinpoint why something isn’t working, quickly address and correct it, then get the direction of your business back on track. Negative thoughts beget destructive attitudes.
2. Toxic relationships:
Friendships, personal and business relationships that rob your energy (Power leeches), monopolize your time or poison your ability to be productive in various areas of your life, need to be deleted. These toxic relationships tend to be spiritually destructive and unsupportive at a time when you probably need them the most.
3. All work and no play:
Nowadays, many workaholics shift into a melt down, beat down or shut down. If you don’t take the time to relax and regroup, you will deplete your mental, physical and emotional energy levels. Your mind might say, “Keep going,” but your body will say, “No way!” Capitalize on your down time, before your busy time takes you down!

Recently I was interviewed by Marketing Magazine, a local magazine in Singapore that keeps close tabs on the marketing strategies companies of all sizes use to reach out to their consumers. I thought that this is an excellent case study of how important positioning, branding and marketing are for your business.For their feature story on Branding, the magazine asked for my comments on Creative Technology’s (renowned for its sound card and MP3 players, and most recently for its legal tussle wi

In the past, many organizations have relied on generic personality profiling tools to assess, recruit and manage their employees. Though these tools have garnered a certain measure of success, there were many flaws that needed to be addressed for increased workplace relevance.In view of these concerns, First Quatermain has developed THREE tools and has blended them into an integrated schema known as the Synergistic Organization of Unique People (S.O.U.P) Model.This integrated model has been devel

Yes that is right I said Easy Advertising Strategies for the Beginner,of course their is the old reliable paid advertising on Google, Yahoo, MSN and many others. All of these of course cost money of various amounts and not always cheap,a lot of people seem to have the theory that the higher you are ranked on the search engines the more traffic you will have to your site. This is a nice neat theory but it is not always true being ranked higher may help or it may not,what I am saying is if you spend a bunch of m

You may remember being told as a child, "Keep quiet!" "Children should be seen, not heard," and "You talk too much." You were a "good" kid if you kept quiet. However, being quiet when you are little causes big problems later in life.As an adult, you may have been punished for communicating. For example, if you admit you committed a crime and are sorry about it, no one cares. You still go to jail. If you honestly tell your spouse you are thinking about an affair, your marriage suffers if your sp

5. Chaotic environments:
Your personal, public and/or work related surroundings where peace does not abound will throw you into a state of constant chaos. This type of environment elevates stress, low morale, defensiveness, depression and non-productivity.
6. Activity vs. Productivity:
Going through the motions by just doing something without the fruits of productivity, will destroy a business. Every business has to stay in the game by consistently reinventing themselves. Doing the same boring, unproductive thing over and over again will stalemate you and your business. Adding something fresh, even if it’s a small change, will keep your business operating and working towards greater profits and productivity.
7. Addictions:
Aside from the addictions that immediately come to mind, repeated tardiness, poor work ethics, non-commitment, normal practices of disrespecting authority, those in upper level management positions abusing their authority by instilling fear into their subordinates, not being a team player, etc., shows irresponsibility and lack of good judgment. You must confront those negative habits that currently control and will eventually destroy you and your business. These addictive patterns of behavior are on a collision course with disaster.
So what do you do? Re-vamp, re-prioritize and re-group! Easier said than done? Yes, you are absolutely right! But, if you don’t do something now, you will become an incubator for these dangerous and unhealthy strongholds that will ultimately become deadly for you and your business. Creating peace and harmony in your life can reduce stress and anxiety, while building spiritual growth and productivity. If your personal house is harmonious, then it tends to spill over into your work relations. Strongholds can be very costly, and not only in terms of monetary losses either.
