Tax Information for Small Businesses
by: ARA Content
(ARA) - The IRS publishes a lot of tax information to help small business owners and there are many ways to get it. You can always visit an IRS office to pick up copies of IRS forms and publications, although the IRS continues to make it easier for you to get these materials without leaving your office or maybe even your home.
The IRS will send you forms and publications free of charge when you call them at 1-800-829-3676 with your request. Normally, you will receive the materials within 10 days, although there is another way to get tax materials right away.
If you have access to a personal computer, you can browse and download IRS (read full article) |

Staying Sane While Wall Street Crashes
by: David Leonhardt a.k.a. The Happy Guy
Everybody is riding the Wall Street Roller coaster. Even if you are not invested, the headlines scream out one word: PANIC!
It's hard not to join in the panicking. The Panic Crowd seems to be having all the fun these days. But they don't have all the happiness. You see, it's true what your mother told you: money doesn't buy happiness, at least not for most people. But the lack of money does buy pure misery.
Did you ever wonder why so many office towers have fusion-sealed, micron-proof windows to keep office workers safe from any semblance of fresh air? It has to do with the stock market. During The (read full article) |

Don't Discount Offline Business Opportunities
by: Kathy Burns-Millyard
So many people automatically think of Internet businesses first now days. Why? Because they're relatively cheap and quick to set up. What many don't seem to realize though, is that are still some golden opportunities in the offline world too. One such business can be started for less than $50, and can start earning you cash from the first day.
So, what is this business? Vending machines. Now before you shrug this off as being too expensive, let's look at a few facts.
1. Not all vending machines are big and expensive. The first image that comes to mind with the term "vending machine" is a large cola or snack machi (read full article) |

Small Cards, Big Ideas: Alternative Uses for Business Cards
by: Linda Elizabeth Alexander
Aggressive business card marketing isn't about handing your business cards out to everyone you see. The card itself must have a new use, an innovative design, or something other than the usual contact information printed on it. To make your little card stand out, try these other ideas.
Print something other than a business card on biz card-sized cardstock.
You have seen loyalty cards for "buy 10 get one free" offers; why not print one of your own? Print a frequent buyer card or other promotional offer on a card. The whole card can be a coupon for a free consultation, a discount, or a free gift wi (read full article) |

Cultural Awareness - an HR perspective
by: N.A. Johnson
The use of cultural awareness training has increased rapidly in the majority of global companies over the last decade.
My experience working in global companies in which effective cross-cultural functioning was critical, involved the devotion of considerable time and energies to ensuring that cultural training needs were identified and accommodated as necessary.
This commitment to bridging cultural gaps represents a perceptible shift in attitudes amongst British company global thinking. This is a shift from the prevalent subconscious (and sometimes not so subconscious) driver, which existed in previous years. Thinking typically (read full article) |

Islam in the Workplace
by: Neil Payne
Suggested practice for HR personnel
Muslims now form one of the largest religious groups in the UK. At a time when great misunderstandings and stereotypes circulate the media and society regarding the religion, it is crucial for an effort to be made at all levels to go beyond archetypal images and to begin to understand Islam and Muslims.
With a population of approximately 1.5 million Muslims and growing, UK based companies are employing more and more young Muslim men and women. With this increase comes a greater need for HR practitioners to be aware of the respective cultural sensitivities.
As with individuals from any background, if they do not f (read full article) |

PR: What's the Point?
by: Robert A. Kelly
Here’s the point: people act on their own perception of the facts before them, which leads to predictable behaviors about which something can be done. When we create, change or reinforce that opinion by reaching, persuading and moving-to-desired-action the very people whose behaviors affect the organization the most, the public relations mission is accomplished.
The point is simply stated for businesses, non-profits and associations. Many concentrate their public relations effort on newspaper and radio exposures or funding management’s favorite special event.
This when they should be driving an action plan that persuades their ke (read full article) |

Creating Great Business Correspondence
by: Colin Ong TS
Obtaining the skills for writing good business correpondence is important; a job seeker needs to send customised job application letters. A secretary needs to send out an official invitation letter. A purchasing assistant may need to prepare an invoice. It does not necessarily imply that you must just have a good standard of English. You should remember that correspondence means to communicate a message. It is a two-way effort between the writer and the receiver.
Here are some tips:

The quality of your printing reflects the stature of your own company. Ensure that your printer has an adequate ink cartridge and the p (read full article) |

When Do I Need To Hire A Business Plan Consultant
by: Howard Schwartz
Every new business owner knows that a business plan is critical – it is drilled into them by potential investors and every banking officer they meet. So why is something that is so important to the launch of a new venture so difficult to write? Good question! In this article I will try to address when you should go out and hire a business plan writer versus taking on the task yourself. First time entrepreneurs often cringe when sitting down to write their business plan. Some spend 6 months agonizing over each period and comma, and even worse others spend 6 months procrastinating and do nothing. So lets break it down (read full article) |

You're in complete control in this area. And all it takes is some imagination and discipline-both of which are free.
