The Difference Between “Need” and “Want”
by: Craig Nathanson
Let’s face it: Most people spend way too much money on things they don’t really need. The more money we make, the more we tend to spend. This endless cycle of materialism has led many people to confuse the word “need” with the word “want.” As in, “we need a big-screen TV for our new home theater.” Or, “I need a new pair of shoes to go with my new outfit.”
If you want to achieve your vocational passion, where every day you jump out of bed and can’t wait to go to work, then you need to re-order your priorities. Stay away from the purely material.
The pursuit of material success often is the root (read full article) |

How To Protect Your Investment Capital?
by: David Chew
What do you expect when you buy a stock? We expect the stock price to go up so that we can sell at higher price than we originally bought them and take the profits. But many times things turn out not as we planned. What happens if the stock price does not go up but instead go down? It goes down 5%, 10%, 15%...50%.... If you don't cut you losses, you will lose your hard-earned money.
You may face financial difficulty if you buy stocks on margin. This is the actual situation during the last few years when NASDAQ plunged from the peak of 5000+ points to 1000+ points. Imagine if you put your stop losses in place, normally about 10%, (read full article) |

The Importance of a Focused Business Plan
by: Jack Foley
So you have seen a great opportunity and are about to get started. Where do you go from here? Before you dig in, I cannot stress enough the importance of a well laid out business plan. You might then be asking, how do I plan and set goals if I don’t have a clue what I’m going to achieve and in what timeframe? This may be true, but your business must have a foundation on which to start from. You are going to start your home business because you see the potential of this opportunity. Now, to realize this potential, you should plan on how you are going to turn this into success.

Strategic vs Tactical Marketing - Understand and Profit
by: James Bell
Most people mistakenly assume that when you talk about marketing, you're automatically talking about "Tactical" marketing - placing ads, generating leads, sending out mailers, attending trades shows, creating brochures, implementing a follow-up system, and so forth.
They fail to realize that the "Strategic" side of the coin - what you say, how you say it, and who you say it to - is almost always MORE important than the marketing medium of WHERE you say it.
So, What's The Difference Between Strategic And Tactical Marketing?
The distinction between the two is huge. "Tactical Marketing" is the execution of your m (read full article) |

Differences Between Credit Cards and Store Cards
by: Neil Brown
Introduction
In this article, a presentation is made of the differences between major credit cards (http://www.chooseacreditcard.co.uk) and credit cards offered by specific stores to their customers. The purpose of this article is to provide a general overview of major credit cards and store cards to aid consumers in making decisions regarding which lines of credit lines would be the best for them in a given set of circumstances.

Art to Part in Plastics: Molding Dreams into Reality
by: Steve Koons
An introduction to Injection Molding.
Every plastic product you see needs to be shaped, and the most common method is Injection Molding. Most people using their computer to read this give no thought to how all those plastic parts were formed. Or how complex and expensive it is even to produce a ballpoint pen. Just about every part made of plastic these days is formed using some kind of an injection mold, from tiny precision parts that can barely be seen to large automotive exterior parts. Just about every industry relies on some kind of injection mold for their products.
Injection molding is the forcing of molten pl (read full article) |

Controlling Costs Key to Running a Business
by: ARA Content
(ARA) - With more and more small businesses and dot.coms going bankrupt these days, businesses are developing new strategies to stay in the game and obtain a profit at the same time. More than ever, not enough emphasis is being placed on controlling costs.
"Increasing sales is overrated. The old adage that volume cures all ills is outdated and moldy," explains Patrick Bruce, senior business analyst for The Bankcard Store. "I was brought up under the guidance of independent restaurant owners, whereby the net bottom line profit was all that mattered at the end of the night. It wasn't until I started to work for McDonald's in t (read full article) |

Successful Offshore Call Center Outsourcing
by: Rob O'Malley
HOW TO MAKE OUTSOURCING WORK FOR YOU
There is much hype about the growth of outsourcing. There are an increasing number of success stories but the number of failed projects is also on the rise. This is particularly true of India where weak management and poor infrastructure are damaging the reputation of the whole offshore outsourcing industry even for countries with greater attention to quality such as South Africa and The Philippines.
How do you make offshore outsourcing work for you? I believe that this 10-point plan is a key tool, which can be used to make the difference between success and failure.

Partnering For Progress and Growth
by: Sue and Chuck DeFiore
Many home-based entrepreneurs are gaining new ground with partnering arrangements. Although it takes many shapes, the core of the partnering concept is two or more businesses teaming up to achieve together what they can’t do alone. Partnering with other businesses can help you offer a broader product or service package to a particular market segment, provide the resources to handle a single major project, or organize resources to meet your customers’ needs. Whatever the scenario, partnering gives you the image of seamless capacity typically associated with large corporations.
Even though it has been around for a while, (read full article) |

“Penny Wise and Pound Foolish”
by: Sue and Chuck DeFiore
This saying came to mind when reading my Icop newsletter. JL was discussing things that Chuck and I talk about all the time. A couple of weeks ago while listening to Jim Edwards’ audio newsletter he ranted about the “psycho freebie seekers” (love that name). Jim rants almost as well as Dennis Miller.
Anyway these two newsletters and what they had to say have been rolling around in my head for a couple of days now. What came to mind is that people who run Internet businesses from their home are no different than those who ran businesses out of their home in the 80’s…..they don’t want to pay for anything.
