Small Business Marketing Tip - Test Package Alternatives
Remember, ‘Package' is simply your face to the customer. The smart small business marketer is always open to new ways to keep that face looking its best.Because Package is about presentation, it involves every physical detail of your store; but it also is very much the interplay between customers and staff. It's why you can walk into two different fast food franchises belonging to the same chain and utilizing the same signage and pricing and floor layout and yet receive a totally different impression of each shop based on how the staff treats you in them.We urge you to brainstorm with your Bloom Team and dream up one or two small package variations to test. Remember, we're not talking Brand, here; we don't want you to overhaul your entire image in this exercise. Instead, let's fine-tune the way you present your brand.Some ide

Meditations: Creating Your Meditation Strategy
Meditating without a plan is like going on a holiday with no idea where you are going or what you are going to do. All that will happen is that you will get lost and will not end up achieving anything. If you do meditate without having a clear strategy in place, you will find over a period of time that your interest in meditating will wane and you will simply stop meditating. However, if you develop a strategy for what you want out of your meditation, then you have a goal and this means that you are more likely to stick with your meditation sessions till you achieve your goal.There are many reasons why you may want to meditate. The most common reason that I see people in western society want to meditate is to deal with stress and overwork. So, if you were developing a meditation strategy to deal with this issue, your strategy should be s

Most people have mixed feelings about feeling and expressing anger. Various influences suggest everything from practicing extreme self-control, holding it all in (end result: stoicism) to showing no boundaries about sharing anger at all(end result: anarchy). Finding the middle ground is the place where you can communicate feelings and the facts of a given situation, without hurting or blaming the other party, and vice versa. When this first scenario occurs, you are creating more space for positive communication changes to occur. When communication is less than ideal, continuing to express anger in old ways will reinforce old habits., aggravating an already difficult situation.

I’m recommending the following journal exercises to assist you in finding more positive ways to express your anger, and become a better communicator. When I have shared my feelings, and the other party has been receptive, I’ve been surprised at how calm I became, compared to how uncomfortable, I felt prior to sharing my feelings. I also have had some situations where I either didn’t receive a response or the other party remained silent. What is most important in any situation, is that I reached out and began the process.

Here is the your exercise list:

ANGER SCRIBBLE:

When you have a strong reaction to a situation, start to pray and write about it. Remember to include a detailed description of your strong feelings including the facts of the situation. Remember to use as much space on a page as you can when you scribble. After filling a page, choose one scribble, and start drawing a specific shape over your scribble. Continue to scribble over the shape until you are finished. (e.g. You may feel tired or relieved. Your words may slow down or you may run out of time to write.) When you notice any of these reactions, it’s time to stop writing. Wait a few minutes for everything to settle, then move to the next exercise. (Note: You may substitute any ritual here if praying isn’t a good fit for you.)

Lawyer Annual Renewals with Audits Needed
Due to Sarbanes Oxley so many Corporations and Small Medium Sized companies are feeling the incessant costs of increasing accounting fees. This is because there are not enough accountants to do all the work and because errors and omissions insurance have gone up because trial lawyers are using these laws to sue companies and accounting firms.It is also causing many small accounting corporations from no longer wishing to do audits, which are required by the rules and regulations. What we need is more rules and regulations for lawyers and a way to prove that they are all honest in their dealings.I personally do not believe that any lawyer is honest and I believe they should all be; well, Caesar said it best. We need to give all lawyers annual lie detector tests and we must make sure that all lawyers have annual audits of their books s

Don't Believe The Hype! About Your Insurance
I have read perhaps thousands of articles and books on the topic of financial planning and I am still amazed at how many articles and books mislead so many people about what type of life insurance to buy. Many of the self proclaimed experts tell you that it is better to rent your life insurance (term) instead of owning permanent life insurance (cash value).Think about it. Do most people feel it’s a wise financial move to rent (or lease) their home, car, TV, jewelry, furniture, or almost anything else they are going to have for a long period of time? NO WAY! Most people, including the self proclaimed guru’s of the world, will agree that it is much wiser to own these things. Why? Because while renting is initially cheaper, over the long run it’s much more expensive.So, why do some people tell you to rent your life insurance? What makes

Speed-up Your Sales Cycle
This week's article is my response to a question by David Cohen of Bridge-Soft. "Quite a few prospects have told me that business is stagnant at the moment, but they are hopeful towards the 4th quarter. How do you approach the sales cycle where the cost of the product is relatively high and the sales cycle is lengthy, sometimes six months or more, in good times. I have little trouble generating interest in our products during my cold calls, but the relationship of a slow economy, long sales cycle, in combination with the cost of the software puts a few road blocks up. Any ideas on how to either avoid or breakdown these road blocks?" -David Cohen, Sales Director, Bridge-Soft Thanks for writing in David. Essentially what you want to know is how to speed up the sales cycle. Let's start the discussi

of your strong feelings including the facts of the situation. Remember to use as much space on a page as you can when you scribble. After filling a page, choose one scribble, and start drawing a specific shape over your scribble. Continue to scribble over the shape until you are finished. (e.g. You may feel tired or relieved. Your words may slow down or you may run out of time to write.) When you notice any of these reactions, it’s time to stop writing.

Companies Looking to Organize Podcasters
Of course it was inevitable - the continued chase for podcast revenue. Once iTunes jumped in, followed by large corporations who started creating and distributing their own podcasts, it wouldn’t be long before some one came up with the bright idea to cash in on the myriad of small, independent podcasters.The challenge is to organize all of those podcasters, supply the advertising, collect the money and somehow split it up equitably. And apply this idea to a group as diverse as you’ll ever find. In fact, the word ‘group’ is applied arbitrarily.However, let’s take a quick look at the players:First there’s Audible.com. In a recent press release, they outlined th

inutes for everything to settle, then move to the next exercise. (Note: You may substitute any ritual here if praying isn’t a good fit for you.)

UNSENT LETTERS: This exercise is an effective way to communicate feelings and information to yourself or to someone else. You can write unsent letters, when it might otherwise be hurtful to speak directly to the other party(ies) You can also write unsent letters on any topic (positive or negative). Unsent letters also provide a great place to practice your lines. Whether you write a series of unsent letters or one letter, your feelings will become less intense. Then you can prepare to have a calm conversation with the other party. You can write as many unsent letters as you want. When you write your unsent letters, you give yourself permission to feel the intense emotions that surface around a specific event. At some point either during, immediately or after you’ve written your letter, you will gain clarity about your part in the situation. You will also learn to evaluate your responsibility as well as the other party’s responsibility in the same situation. When you are calm again, you will be more prepared to make changes, including asking for a more specific communication change from the other party. You can continue to follow-up your unsent letters with prayers of blessing for the other party. As you continue to bless the other party, room is made for positive changes to happen in yourself and the other party. When you write an unsent letter, it demonstrates your courage and willingness, to make serious changes in a difficult situation. . WRITING A DIALOGUE: Writing an imagined or real conversation you had with the other party, can help let out some of your anger. It’s useful to put words or images to your feelings.

Start your dialogue with two voices, the letter “A” (for your voice) and “B” (for the other person’s voice).

Be sure to allow both voices time to speak.

Don’t worry about writing a perfect dialogue.

Use as much detail as you can. Your descriptive skills will improve with each unsent letter that you write. For example, if I feel my anger burning like fire, then I would want to say “I’m burning up over this situation.” If I am feeling a sense of resentment (something deep, quiet and very intense, that never quite goes awa
