- Create A Successful Business Plan In 30 Days
By: Janis Pettit | - It's time to make business goals. How much time have you scheduled in for planning this year? If you want a successful business, you have to plan!
The reason many small and solo business owners dont plan is because they are caught up in an endless list of daily tasks that keep them running.

- Get Focused...and Make More Money
By: Katrina Sawa | - Where are you wasting time and how to avoid this trap?
You first want to figure out WHERE you're spending your time day to day...keep a list! Write down everything you do for a week - EVERYTHING! And write down how much time you spent on it, if you could have done it in less time but weren't focused or didn't know how to accomplish a task and spent too long learning or trying, etc.
But truly BEFORE you do that step...hopefully you've stopped to think about how you reall ...

- Are You Generating These 3 Types Of Income In Your Business?
By: Katrina Sawa | - One thing that comes up so often when I speak with my coaching clients is that they aren't maximizing their income generating opportunities. Most believe that all they can make is $75,000 or maybe $150,000 but hardly anyone (who isn't already exposed to this way of doing business) ever imagines they could make $300,000 a year or even 1 million!

By: Katrina Sawa | - For many entrepreneurs we start a business because we have a passion for delivering a product or service in some way or we want to make a bunch of money (it's nice if you can have both).
Then we go along in our businesses, day by day, working hard (and often long hours) at what we believe is our purpose or our mission (and hopefully we enjoy ourselves along the way).

Yes, that's one perspective on your situation. The reality is that you have made few sales. You are spending more money marketing your business than you've made. You can focus on the negatives.

It's simple really, people want a good deal yes of course but we immediately think that has to be a lesser price or discounted price on our products or services when really, if you can just add a lot more value to the package instead, it's even better because people realize they're getting more for their money.

- Are You Too Nice?
By: Audrey Burton | - Most women and a lot of men were brought up to be nice. We are taught by society not to show anger and often to subjugate our needs to everyone else’s. On top of that, women often blame themselves when things are not right, and take things personally.
As a business owner, this behavior does not serve you, and in fact it limits you.

- Boys Vs. Girls In Small Business? Sort-ofÃ"'¦
By: Audrey Burton | - Women small business owners often operate much differently than men. In the beginning, in my experience, men are more likely to select their businesses based on potential for making big money and women are more likely to choose based on a passion.
Some women are able to start very small businesses, like a MLM or personal service business, because their husbands are the primary wage-earners and their income is not needed'. Most men do not have this option open to them.

As a solopreneur, your resources are limited that is, time and mo'ney. Managing and marketing one business is already a full-time job, so if your two businesses don't share the same target market, you may struggle a lot.

When the dealer has a card showing between 2 and 6, you never risk going over 21. That's the rule. More times than not, you will come out ahead and so will everyone at the table.
You need to know and follow the rules in networking, too, or you risk upsetting everyone at the table! For example, when you have 30 seconds to talk about your business, respect that time.
