| Article Title :: Business Name - How to Choose One |
| |
| It's very important to get your business name right. You may
already have a business name but it's not too late to change
it. Let's face it; big organisations change their business
and product names all the time.I named my business Fairweather Associates when I started in
1993. However, when I attended networking events with my
name badge on my lapel, people would ask - "Are you lawyers
or accountants or architects?" They would come up with
everything except what I actually did, which was
Professional Speaking and Consulting.I've retained Fairweather Associates for my business bank
account; however, I'm much better know as -

| Article Title :: Customers - Why Should They Buy From You? |
| |
| There are a whole range of reasons why customers buy a
product or service. They usually buy to solve either real or
perceived problems. They want to move away from pain and
towards pleasure. They want to feel better after having made
the decision to buy a product or service than they did
before.Customers will buy from you if you meet these criteria.
However there are other reasons they will buy from you
rather than your competitors.1 - If they think you're an expert and a specialist2 - If they think you're product or service is better3 - If someone tells them toLet's look at each of these in turn -#1 Customers want to know that you understand them (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Beware the Opposition! |
| |
| Any time you make changes in your life you are going to be met with opposition from people who would prefer you to stay exactly as you are. Sadly, these people are often the ones that love you the most; your family, friends, partners and even work colleagues. However, in your moments of entrepreneurial seizure, the greatest opposition that you will experience (particularly if you’re a seasoned employee) will come from within yourself.What’s your great business idea?They say that each one of us has an unwritten book lying within us. It’s my belief that each of us also has a great business idea lying in the depths of who we are as well. However, the reality is that ve (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Will Your Business Survive Without You? |
| |
| I had a health scare in December.As it turns out, everything's perfectly okay. But the possibility
of things not being okay really knocked me for a loop.For the first time ... ever ... I thought about what would
happen to my business if I suddenly weren't around to take
care of it.What an eye-opener!Fact is, I'm the only person who really knows how things
work in my business.Several people - from my attorney to my coach to my book
printer - know 'bits' of it. But there's really no one who knows
enough about my business to step in, figure things out, and
keep things moving without me.And that was pretty scary to me. (Fortunately, it was s (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Can You Make Money Without Money? |
| |
| When I ask why you don't start your own business, I always hear, "I don't have money to start a business."This is a common excuse people give for not starting their own business.There is truth in the statement. You actually need money to make money or to start a business. But the question is "Do you need a lot of money or little to start a business?" and "Whose money do you use?"Yes, I admit that it does take money to make money but it doesn't need to be your money!Recently, one of my friends closed his restaurant business due to staff problems. But he quickly jumped to another business opportunity.The business idea is so good that I want to share with y (read full article) |

| Article Title :: What Makes an Entrepreneur? |
| |
| Rupert Steiner in his book ‘My First Break’ attempted to define the secret of becoming an entrepreneur and following interviews with over one hundred entrepreneurs, Steiner concluded that there was not one defined path. He has, however, drawn out observations of an entrepreneur’s personality traits. They have a tendency to be rebels, outsiders, original thinkers, risk takers and break new ground. Entrepreneurs are always on the lookout for new business opportunities and have the guts it needs to start up a business. They have total commitment to what they are doing, which verges on obsession behaviour.Although some of the traits that they exhibit are similar to those of â (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Good Questions, good Answers; Bad Questions, Bad Replies |
| |
| I'm convinced that asking the right questions is one of the most important skills you need to become a successful business person. Questions have the power to direct you or to distort you. The right kind of questions will direct you to success the wrong kind of questions will direct you to bankruptcy.Let me ask you a question, have you ever realized how often people ask questions? Why is that the case? Well, we usually ask questions when we need an answer. And we usually need answers when we want to make a decision.Every decision-making process can be described as a process of questions and answers.Our brain constantly asks questions. Every single moment our brain evaluates. (read full article) |

| Article Title :: The Heroic Entrepreneur: Profiting from Your Brilliance |
| |
| If you look up the definition of hero in Webster's, you'll find a definition something like, 'A person noted for feats of courage or nobility of purpose, especially one who has risked or sacrificed his or her life: soldiers and nurses who were heroes in an unpopular war'. Some heroes in our lives have earned that badge of honor by doing something everyone feels is heroic as defined in the traditional sense, whether it's running into a burning building to rescue a child, pulling an injured woman from a car accident, or fighting the enemy in the time of war.I recently rented the movie, Seabiscuit, which started my thinking about this whole notion of heroism. What I found heroic in th (read full article) |
