Growth
Growth is vital to prosperity. Every person, every company, and every national economy must grow. Are you working for a company that is growing? Is it growing profitably and with no decline in velocity? What happens when the growth rate is low or even negative?If the company as a whole or your business unit lags behind competitors, your personal progress will suffer. If the company's sales are flat for five or six years, people will not have the opportunity to be promoted and move forward. Top managers will begin to cut costs, cut the number of employees,

Who Is Your Business Plan For?
It was C.D. Jackson, Publisher of Life Magazine who once said “Great ideas need landing gear as well as wings.” The sad truth is that most people plan trips and vacations better than they plan their business ventures. It seldom occurs to them that a business plan can help—tremendously. Consider the different audiences who may read your business plan as your great idea takes off. Bankers are primarily concerned about having their loans repaid. While they will say that they are interested in a company’s long-term prospects because they want to establish long-t

Is your restaurant, bar or hotel clean? I mean really clean. I don't mean "do you stick to all the rules and regulations?". I mean, do you and your staff really care about cleanliness and hygiene?

Just complying with hygiene regulations will almost certainly result in you breaking them. By meeting standards that are higher than the minimum you will probably comply with them. But is this enough? There are two mindsets when it comes to good hygiene practice in catering businesses. One is the "will I avoid a fine?" school of thought. The other mindset is: "I really care that my customers can enjoy the highest standards of hygiene".

Regional Hotels Give Cities Windfall in Wake of Katrina
The Hotel Industry has surely seen a roller coaster ride with Hurricane Katrina. Many Hotels along the Gulf Coast were totally destroyed, many were damaged and others in the aftermath remain totally full. So full in fact that finding a hotel with vacancy within 300 miles is nearly impossible. This is a windfall for the Patel Family; the Indians who are quite industrious and often associated with being sole proprietor hotel owners, it is a family tradition. Most Franchised Hotel Chains and Corporate Hotel Chains are also watching the occupancy rates at 100% meani

How to Be Noticed
IntroductionPeople page through a magazine in a similar fashion as they surf through the web. The average attention span is not very long; eyes wander attempting to take in all of the stimuli. While paging through a magazine, a person is most likely to glance at a great number of advertisements. While reading articles, it relieves pressure on the brain to take a break from the text and take in some visual graphics. Millions of people either subscribe or peer through magazines generating great potential for sales for an advertiser. Are your ads feat

tablishment? Some jurisdictions insist on having a person who is responsible for hygiene (depending on the size of the business). This is a double-edged sword. The hygiene officer must have some clout, though, and have a direct route to senior management. On the other hand if the hygiene officer appointment is just a sop to regulations or a way of impressing health inspectors it could actually make things worse. Why? Because hygiene is the responsibility of everyone. All staff from top to bottom must ensure that they and their customers are working in clean conditions. The danger of having a hygiene officer is that the rest of the staff may feel justified in disowning responsibility for this area. The hygiene officer must not be the cleaner. So, unless the law says you must have a hygiene officer, think long and hard before you go down this route. If you do, do it well and it will pay off.
