The ABCs of the S-Corporation
As small business owners, we all have at least two things in common when it comes to our companies: Keeping other people’s hands off our personal assets and paying the lowest possible taxes (this usually means having profits taxed on our individual tax returns.) That’s what the S-corporation is all about. While the limited liability company (LLC) is quickly taking its place, S-corporation benefits still do outweigh LLC benefits for many companies. But h

4. Do it afraid!

Moving out of your comfort zone isn’t easy. Frankly, only a select few have the courage to step out of that sandbox. Is it scary? You bet! Is it gratifying? Absolutely! What I’ve learned about fear is this: fear is an emotion, a feeling that you either let control you or you control it. The choice to build more than sand castles is completely yours. There are myriad of tools and resources to help you conquer the fe

Are You Overqualified for Your Job?
When you are professionally overqualified, there are usually lots of stressful issues, which have to be dealt with.When you are in this situation, there is a constant internal struggle and debate going on in your mind about your presence at that job. You keep asking yourself, “What am I doing here? What am I doing with my life?" You even begin to question who you are and the things you stand for! When others inquire why such a talented and qualifi

Sandboxes fascinate me. You can live in a concrete jungle yet right there in the middle of city smog, metal swing sets and wooden benches is a box containing sand imported from well, who knows where?

Watching children at play in those sandboxes is especially delightful. The sound of their giggles, the way they work so intently to build their castles or other castle-like architecture with such great focus they don’t see or hear what’s going on around them. Adorable. Not so adorable when you consider that as we mature into entrepreneurs, many of us treat our business as though we were still playing in the sandbox.

The sandbox feels safe. The boundaries or safe zones are clearly identified by the four corners that make up the box itself. You can bring tools with you when you enter the sandbox but once you’re in, you pretty much stick to playing with what you’ve got. There is no question that you can have a successful business in the safe zone. However, to create wild success you’ve got to stop building sand castles and begin building your empire!

Here are four steps (there are more!) to get you out of the safe zone and into the Wild Success Zone ™:

1. Know what you want.

Nothing is greater than having clarity of purpose - the reason you jump out of bed each morning anxious for what the day brings. As a child you were asked, “what do you want to be when you grow up?” Now that you’re all grown up (well, not entirely I hope) ask yourself, “what do I want the rest of my life to stand for?” Your personal brand, business systems and overall structure are designed around the answer to this question.

2. Be clear on your motives.

I recently read that entrepreneurship is all about being of service and I couldn’t agree more. An entrepreneur has the opportunity to sniff out what a market needs and/or wants, then creates a solution to satisfy that need/want. If the solution does in fact satisfy the need (and assuming a strong brand and promotion is in place), you’re on your way to hitting a home run. Do you ever feel like you’re spinning your wheels in your business? You might be stuck in the safe zone – creating services or products that you think your market wants. Your intention comes from the right place but if you are truly going to serve others, you must be clear on their needs first.

3. Shake it off.

There is a time and place for sticking with the tried and true. If you want to achieve wild success, you must be willing to step out of the safe zone and shake off what no longer serves you. As an entrepreneur, you put your heart and soul into your business. After all, for many small business entrepreneurs, you are your business. Just as the seasons change, each year brings new insights, revelations and growth opportunities. The persona, alliances and methods that once served you may have changed seasons. Are you changing with it or are you getting in the way of your own success?

Productivity is Frequently Not Orderly!
Jim thought he was organized. Everything was color coded, and there was a file for every project he work working on – each with sub files, research files – all neatly stored in state-of-the-art filing cabinets. So why can’t Jim find anything?One of the biggest frustration of being called “an organizing consultant” is that people assume you are always orderly (some would call it a “neatfreak!) Creative people often assume that “being organized” w

There are several ways to work from home. Some of the more popular ways are affiliate programs, direct marketing and starting your own business.

My uncle recently retired from a large manufacturing company after 40 years of service! This is no doubt a great accomplishment, and I congratulate him for this achievement. However it really does cause me to wonder. Could I ever work for the same company for 40 years?Let’s just put this into perspective.My uncle retired in 2006 which means he started working in 1966. Let’s put this in modern terms. I graduated from college in 2003 and

Any modern business requires the printing of labels, be it a retailer printing labels on products for sale, a logistics company printing labels to track shipments, or a manufacturer printing labels on goods produced. Small businesses and homes also find label printers handy if there is a lot of mailing to be done. There are also federal legislations that require the printing of labels in a specified manner. It is because of these and many other reasons that labels have become an invariable part of everyday business.
