Avoid Immediate Disasters
Don’t be afraid to request bill extensions or payment plans. These requests are often granted. If your biggest worry is eviction from your apartment, talk to your landlord, but, also, see if you can get extensions on any other expenses to free up money for keeping your home. For instance, suppose that your rent is $650 and you’re $200 short. Your bundled phone bill and cable bill is $60, your electric bill is $100 and your cell phone bill is $40. If these bill payments are postponed until your next paycheck, you can pay your rent now and avoid eviction.

Review Credit Card Payments and Due Dates
If you are only making the minimum payments on your credit card(s), you are flirting with a disastrous credit score. However, avoiding credit card payments will only worsen your debt.

For example, suppose that your minimum payment on a $1,000 balance is $40. You fail to pay $40 on time, so you are charged a $35 late fee. In addition, your interest on future charges is charged at the default rate of 25%. Now your credit card is even more difficult to pay off. Before you know it, you have an overwhelming collection of piled up late fees and missed payments.

Prioritizing Bills
Go over all your bills to see what must be paid first and then set up a payment schedule based on your pay days. You will want to leave yourself some catch-up time if some of your bills are already late. If this is the case, call the bill companies to see how much you can pay now to get back on track toward positive status. Tell them you are catching up and going on a stricter budget. Be honest about what you can afford to pay. Sometimes it’s instinctual to say you’ll pay the full amount on your next paycheck, but you may not have the full amount available after other expenses take their cut.

Ignore the 10% Savings Rule, For Now
Stashing 10% of your income into your savings account is daunting when you’re living paycheck to paycheck. Balance your budget before starting incremental savings. It doesn’t make sense to have $100 in a savings plan if you are fending off debt collectors. Your piggy bank will have to starve until you can find stability in your finances.

Review Your Past Month’s Spending
Online banking and online budgeting software help you categorize spending so you can make adjustments. For instance, with online banking, with a few mouse clicks you can categorize your money for expenses, such as dining, food and utilities.

Negotiating Credit Card Interest Rates
If you have good credit, call your credit card companies and ask for an interest rate reduction. If you don’t ask, you won’t know, as it’s unlikely that credit card companies are going to initiate a reduction on their own.

Eliminate Unnecessary Expenses
Do you need to cut back on coffees? Or movies? Or do you often have spoiled groceries? All cutbacks should start with items you wouldn’t miss, such as switching car insurance companies to get a cheaper rate, or reducing your fresh food purchases if you find food spoiling before you can eat it. Eating out is even more costly, so examine how much and how often your really need to do this.

Journal New Budget for One Month
Once you’ve gone through the first eight steps, monitor your progress by journaling for one month. You can do this by noting everything you spend in a notebook, budgeting apps on your phone, or with financial software. How you track your money isn’t as important as how much you are tracking. Focus on ensuring that every cent is tracked by dividing your expenses into categories, such as rent, food, clothing and utilities.

Adjust Spending as Needed
If, after journaling for one month, you’ve found your budget isn’t where it needs it be, get prepared to make changes. Look at how much you are over budget and decide where you can cut. Don’t rule out items that are viewed as basics, such as groceries, utilities or rent. Cooking from scratch can eliminate the cost of pre-packaged foods, and opting for generic brands over brand names will equal big savings on a cart of groceries. Utilities can be reduced by turning off lights when you leave the room or using a lamp instead of elaborate track lighting. You may be able to negotiate better rent the next time your lease is up, or you could always move to a less expensive place.

Seek Out New Sources of Income
If your current budget doesn’t balance or you’re barely scraping by, you may need to look at working overtime, getting a second job, or possibly getting a new, higher-paying job. Often there is work that pays more, but the nature of the work is unattractive. You may need to decide if it’s better to be unhappy at work or unhappy with debt.

Conclusion
When you’re short on cash, a strict budget is your best tool for correcting your situation. Employing sound money management can mean the difference between financial disaster and financial stability.

My Story.  I have always been a driven person. I knew what I needed to do to earn my next promotion.  I took every class and seminar that I could find to help me get ahead.  When I was in my early 20’s, all my colleagues were men in their 40’s.  If I had kept going, I would certainly have reached upper level management.

My desire and drive for status in the corporate world came to a screeching halt on a day in late 1993–the day I became Jackie’s Mom.  That day, as all Moms understand, my priorities dramatically shifted.  Life was no longer “all about me”.  I wanted to spend as much time with her as I could. Suddenly work and school were unimportant.  I began looking for opportunities to work from home or for good part-time jobs.

It is not easy to juggle business and motherhood.  I do not claim to be an expert.  After Jackie was born, I spent several years in the corporate world not realizing there were other opportunities for me.  While I worked full-time, my constant concern was that I was missing everything while my child was in daycare for 11 hours a day. Because I know children are only little “for a short time”, a cloud of overwhelming sadness was constantly hanging over me.  In my efforts to overcome this concern, I was fortunate along the way to find several excellent part-time jobs, and I even job-shared for a year.  I have actually only worked full-time for half of my daughter’s 12 years. Yet it still never occurred to me that I could leave the security of a corporate job to have my own business.

Thankfully, the entrepreneurial bug bit me in late 2002.  I now have my own business, and I love every minute of it.  I am much happier and I am able to set my schedule around my children’s important activities and, on occasion work with them beside me.  I recently sat at breakfast with Jackie and asked her when she has been happiest with my work schedule.  She too was happiest when I was able to take her to school and pick her up myself and attend all her important activities.

My husband, Terry is about to begin working in my business full-time, too.  While we are looking forward to being together more and working together to help build our business, this will be a major life change for us.  Our son Cole (age three) is currently in daycare for three part-time days each week.  Last week we discussed some of the adjustments we will need to make with Terry being home more. We made the commitment to juggle taking care of Cole and working in the business the remaining two days a week for the next two years until he starts kindergarten.  We know it is best for Cole, that this time is a special time to be with him, and he is worth it.

I have learned many things as a Mom Entrepreneur, and I would like to share two of them.  The Importance of Being Present.  Several months ago, I had a breakfast meeting with my business partner and one of our networking organization members.  The member was sharing some of the things he had learned in a workshop. I will never forget when he said, “You are not listening, you’ve never listened, and you are not listening now…”   Then he explained how he realized he hadn’t been listening to his own daughter.  I immediately understood what he was saying and my heart sank.  I thought of my children. Although I had always wanted to have as much time with them as possible, I had become involved in growing my business.  While juggling both work and family, I had stopped listening.  I had been fooling myself and I had been very wrong.  I apologized to my daughter that day.  I changed immediately, including even little things. For example, while ironing on stars Jackie had earned in P.E., I took the time to talk about how she had earned the stars.  I understood how much I was going to miss unless I was present all the time.  Working moms often struggle with the lack of time spent with their children, but when we are present, every moment we spend with our children can be special quality time.

The Value of Teamwork.  One of the most important things we can do for our families is to have open communication.  I am not afraid to ask for help from my family.  I try my best to communicate my upcoming schedule ahead of time.  When I have a particularly hectic week, we talk about what is happening, if it’s temporary, acknowledge the stress it puts on all of us and handle it together.  As a team, we worked out a plan for the days when I leave early to attend a breakfast meeting. When I say, “I have a breakfast meeting tomorrow,” everyone knows what to do.  For example, my husband takes care of our son and drops him off at preschool.  My family understands my commitment to them is, if at all possible, I will only attend one breakfast meeting a week.  I communicate with them what is happening in the business and try to involve them in it, too.  We are all in this together.  As the business succeeds, we all succeed.

You can help, too.  I love to help others, and as I continue my personal journey towards a more balanced life, I want to collect the experiences of other entrepreneurial moms.  I am also writing a book for Mom Entrepreneurs.  The comments submitted for these articles could also be featured in the book.  It is my goal to share your stories so that we can all help each other to master the fine art of juggling business and motherhood.

It is known that the success of a company heavily dependent on the success of marketing communication – reaching the customer in fact a crucial factor. In this area of work, play a crucial role brochures and brochure design critical. Design a brochure in a mere presentation of information without effective design brings apathetic results. In addition, many before you begin the design work is necessary to choose the correct type of brochure that will be effective.

Brochures types differ depending on the role they need to play. First, before consideration of the factors – the target population, budget, content and scope of distribution – reflect the objective of the brochure, for example:

When do I get my company to a client, I do not exist to introduce?

With direct mail brochures – direct mail brochures are designed to be sent by regular mail to potential customers. They are designed to take the company to a customer, and suggests the importance and the characteristics of the companies / products. Direct Mailing Brochures acts as an effective tool for small businesses.

So when a prospect first interested in my products, how can I a customer?

Be used to communicate your interest by Response Flyer – Brochures response when prospects see the specific interests in society. Response booklets are designed to drive home the best features and focus on better solutions. They aim to convince the prospects that their expectations of business is worth.

Distribute brochure to support – brochures in handy while making sales presentations to come. It is designed to work with the sales presentation so that the participants seem to coincide never lost. It allows the presentation to be effective if the audience can relate to the brochure, if it is not the presenter.

Seduce Your Drop-Off Brochure – Drop off brochures are very effective if you should have many opportunities to be taken separately. They are in various response booklets, because they have shown is not necessarily for people who are interested. These brochures will be developed with a commercial approach to convince people about the product / service and interest for the buyer.

My business is flooded with people, and no matter how many banners I have several offers that tend to miss a customer or two things. I should offer to work …

City Check-out brochures in various places – and yet, you read will be enough in your brochures. They are designed to lure customers, more products by buying brochures in addition to the check-out area of the shop. These should be designed with a catchy headline for customers close to the content. Well, the most effective and is a hike around the store for the new series of purchases to assure the customer.

Even if we manage to escape, how many of us our computers and business phones to take with us and spend a large part of the holiday actually works? Now I have that many of us know, the fact remains that we love our work. We do not want to let go of what we love and embrace the “unknown” … even for a short time. On a recent week-long family vacation, I took my computer and spent the first few days at least three hours per day (my husband by the way, did what, while our children basically vegged front of the TV.) First, it was easier to remain in a state of gratitude, and that in and of itself, a room for me the benefits of a true holiday experience.

Below is a list of ten reasons why you should take a vacation, and if you do, how to approach her, it can actually improve your business and your life.

1st Seeing life from a new perspective. You are no longer surrounded by the familiar. Especially if you go to a place that is new, it takes some time to “orient yourself.” They are forced to leave, and let life flow. Letting life take us on an adventure allows us to relax our control, our liability to resolve how things should be “. We are beginning to take a fresh look at our relationships, our environment, our work and us. We are open to new and perhaps innovative ideas. It is quite possible you will come home with a new, creative solution to a problem, an innovative product, idea or a new approach to marketing.

2nd Breaking up the routine. Drift into a routine is as easy as falling into a chair. We are used in the same house, same route to work, to the supermarket and our kids’ school and work the same way. It healthy to try to break through, try the one time and something new. You never know how Your life may be extended for free and try something fresh.

3rd Connect with your partner, your children, your family, your friends or your self. We now have the opportunity to observe and enjoy. We also have the time to talk, clear air and troubleshooting.

4th The healing of body and mind. Holidays are a good time to relax and let it roll into a deep relaxation. Our body is hard-working and well serve us. It supports us as we share our unique gifts in the world. The more we take care of our body, the longer and more successful is it to serve us. Deep relaxation is a powerful healing force that improves our immune system, and serves as a balm in every cell and body functions. Make sure your holiday is for a period of deep relaxation.

5th Hearing another voice besides the ego. On holidays, we have the opportunity to relax our ego, and other voices and other ways that something could be done. Often these new ideas can be a quantum difference in our business and our lives.

6th Sensing timelessness. Holidays, especially if you resist the temptation to make reservations at any time of day tours or activities (and I would recommend that to resist you), you can benefit from a sense of timelessness. We get so caught up in time. How many times a day do you check your watch, cell phone or clock and realize you have to hurry or to rush to somewhere on time. A vacation is your chance to let go and realize there is more than following the dictates of the Clock of life. It’s amazing how long and pleasant day and evening, but can when we have at the present moment, only live.

7th Discover the skills you had known before. You have talent you never knew you had, such as climbing, sailing, kayaking, diving, or a foreign language? You’ll never know until you test. Holidays give you a perfect opportunity to do so. They are very good about themselves for another attempt, and who knows … Discover a life-long passion!

8th Connection with nature. Especially if your holiday is taken in nature, you have the opportunity to benefit the life terminal. The same force that created life also creates and maintains trees, flowers, water and mountains. One of my favorite poems by the Indian poet Tagore, goes like this, “the same stream of life, through the world and runs through my veins night and day, and rhythmic dances in action … It is the same life that shoots in joy through the dust of the earth in countless blades of grass and breaks into tumultuous waves of flowers. ”

9th The chance to play and enjoy. I hope you have a holiday you enjoy. The opportunity to play and enjoy a great motivation factor is to go in the first place. Playing increases our creativity. And creativity is essential to our work and our relationships. Joy is an energy, improve your immune system, your relationships, and attracts more good in every area of your life. Treat yourself to play. Revel in joy. Enjoy celebrating!

10th Strengthening of gratitude. Last but not least, holidays make it easier to practice proactive gratitude. Practice daily gratitude can change your life. As we are liberated from our daily work and see new places, try new foods and new adventures to experience, there is so much easier to feel and express appreciation. We can appreciate the beauty around us, the time we have with our friends and family and the peace that we feel to share. Planning a trip and go! I guarantee once a peaceful, happy people, more creativity and innovation to bring his or her business.

This is especially true when it comes to a Direct Sales business. If you’ve opted to join a Direct Sales company such as Mary Kay, Pampered Chef or Lia Sophia you will experience the highest level of success if you keep all of your business attentions on that one company.

There is a temptation for some Direct Sellers to branch off into a ‘complimentary’ business. They may think that a gourmet food company would be a perfect addition to a Pampered Chef business, and at first glance it might seem to be so – but it really isn’t.

The beauty of Direct Sales is that it’s a ready made business. The company has done all the hard work for you when it comes to a sales plan, promotional materials, etc. Marketing experts have designed a system that has been proven to work if you just work it – so anything you do to muddy up the message is going to reduce your effectiveness.

There are some businesses that do benefit from diversification, which is just a fancy way to say that you’re offering multiple products or services.

A home based crafter often creates a wide variety of items, people do love choices at craft shows. An internet marketer will create several different websites of varying topics and interests to ensure that their affiliate income will remain stable through any particular market changes.

One of the most interesting examples of diversification that I’ve seen is being demonstrated by a single mother in my town. Tishia Lee just left what will hopefully be the last of several low paying dead end jobs to launch her own home based business, ‘Tishia Saves Time’ (http://www.tishiasavestime.com).

Tishia Saves Time is two businesses in one. On one side she’s offering Virtual Assistant (VA) services to busy internet marketers. A VA performs all kinds of administrative tasks according to the needs of a client. Tishia does internet research, answers client email, updates websites, etc.

The other side of her business is offline. Tishia offers personal errand services for local clients. She’ll pick up dry cleaning or make a run to the grocery store for a low hourly fee plus mileage or she can even be tapped to come over and clean your kitchen on one of those busy days when you just need a helping hand.

The two branches of her business flow smoothly together. She has acquired several regular clients and has the flexibility she needs in her schedule, leaving her plenty of time to enjoy her young son.

So where are you with your home business? Should you be tightening up your focus or looking for ways to diversify?

Andrew needed to make money fast. His family were in danger of losing the roof over their heads and although Andrew worked a fulltime job, there were difficulties that created this current crisis.

He couldn’t understand how I had done so much considering my humble beginings, while he had worked at his current job for over 10 years and was saddled with the difficulties he was currently experiencing. He told me he had no money to invest or anything like that, but could I advise him on what if anything was possible.

This was my response to him.

You see, what he was asking me specifically was, “how do I make money with little or no investment” My mind ignored his emotional pain and focused on the reality. That is the reality of what he needed answering.

Talking about Real Estate investment or anything that needed a capital injection was futile for Andrew, he needed to hear something different. This is what I told him to do, step by step. I told him that if he followed these two steps, he would have $100,000 within 12 months. He did it in 6!

Step one, get a little money. Not much needed, a few hundred dollars would do, but he has to find something as a seed capital account. I gave him the URL of a broker that does paid surveys online. These brokers represent companies that pay ordinary people for their opinions. They typically pay between $50-$300 per hour. He got his wife busy doing these through the day and evenings, they had $1000 within 2 weeks.

Step two, Go Shopping I explained to Andrew the mechanism behind my success. Compounding, intrinsic value, leverage, rapid capital gains, pyramiding profits. I then asked him to compound that thousand dollars by 30% 19 times. In other words, I told him to find 19 investment-objects that were for sale that he could buy, that had at least 30% or more spare intrinsic value.

Intrinsic value is everywhere. Whether you are buying New York sky scrapers of marble pool tables or Bertram boats, every market has a percentage of sellers offering their goods at well below market value.

Andrew started with old cars because he was a mechanic and now he had a game plan he was going to compound his money with his existing skill set. He traded up and up until he had $12,000 in six weeks.

Get your calculator out and see how he did it, how he evolved his money without a hitch. Start with 1000 then multiply by “1.3″ which is the same as 30% Don’t press equals, just hit “1.3″ and multiply symbol again. Do that 19 times.

When Andrew sold his last auto deal, he was ready to get involved in Real Estate. With $12,000 it wasn’t much but it was enough to start applying the same principles with Real Estate. This is where his compounding really escalated.

It escalated, because now he was using leverage….borrowed money. He called me on the day he was ready to start compounding with Real Estate with another problem. As I advised him “get into Real Estate Andrew as quickly as you can, around the $10,000 mark its time to get into that game”

He had a problem. The houses in his area were dear, he couldnt see how having $12,000 was enough to get involved.

I advised him that he should forget about houses until he had at least $40,000 He should focus on raw land. Raw blocks are cheap, and easily re-zoned into a higher purpose. With just a small investment at the local town planning department he could re-zone a residential into a commercial or the other way around where appropriate. Its called a “soft” or “paper” rennovation. No painting, no work, just a few simple forms and a fee to pay.

Creating a new use is just one way to add value to raw land, there are many others. Andrew researched and discovered them all. He stuck with land after all was said and done. He discovered buying a large block and subdividing it was very profitable. The second deal he did, he bought a block of over an acre, surrounded by established homes for $300,000 (with a bank loan) It was a corner block and he split it into three handsome sized blocks, tailored to the upper market. The first two blocks paid out his loan and put profits in his pocket, the last block he used as collateral for another bank loan where he built his own beautiful mansion on.

He sold it for a final profit of $354,000

That was about 8 months after our little chat on that cold evening.

To your health and rapid success.

First, you must create a business based on value pricing and not hourly pricing. The number one worst way to charge (and most creative businesses are charging this way) is by the hour.
Frankly, it shouldn’t matter how long it takes you to solve the client’s problems or provide your service, it should matter that the client is getting what he needs and what he wants.  If you’re creating value and you’re giving them value, they’ll pay you for that value. They shouldn’t be paying you for your time. If you’re being paid for your time you’re essentially setting the ceiling to how much money you can make because you can only work so many hours.
Therefore, you must determine, specifically what your value is to the customer, not how many hours you will work for that customer.

To do this, ask yourself the following questions:

• How do you impact that customer or potential client?
• What do you provide to them that will help them and helps solve their problems?  How will solving these problems impact the customer?  Is it a problem with high impact or low impact?
• What is important to the customer?  Why is it important to the customer?  How important is it?
• Have they had experiences working with someone in your type of business before?  If so, was it a good or back experience?  Why?  Exactly what happened?
• Why is the client coming to you for this issue?
• What is the client’s definition of success with this project?  Ask him to describe specific ways he will know he made the right choice in hiring you.

By getting the answers to these questions – not guessing what the client will say, but actually getting the client to answer these questions – you will have the information you need to create VALUE in the mind of the client.  If they perceive your work to be valuable, they will be thrilled to pay you.  If they do not perceive your work to be of value, they won’t pay you no matter how low you go on the pricing scale.
It’s all in the mind of the client.  Get in their head and understand specifically what they want and, even more specifically, why they want it.  Once you do that, getting paid what you are worth is a piece of cake!

1. Self-confidence

This is that magical power of having confidence in oneself and in one’s powers and abilities.

2. Achievement Oriented

Results are gained by focused and sustained effort. They concentrate on achieving a specific goal, not just accomplishing a string of unrelated tasks.

3. Risk Taker

They realize that there is a chance of loss inherent in achieving their goals, yet they have the confidence necessary to take calculated risks to achieve their goals.

Entrepreneurs are people who will make decisions, take action, and think that they can control their own destinies. They are often motivated by a spirit of independence which leads them to believe that their success depends on raw effort and hard work, not luck.

So which of these three main characteristics is the most important? Believe it or not, it has to be self-confidence. Without self-confidence, nothing else is possible. If you don’t believe in your abilities, then the first challenge that arises may knock you off the path to achieving your goals. Here are a few things to keep in mind for maintaining a higher level of self-confidence.

Positive Thinking

Well, it all starts with a positive attitude, doesn’t it? Believing that something good will happen is the first step. Negative thinking simply is not allowed. You must truly believe that there are no circumstances strong enough to deter you from reaching your goals. Remember too, that positive thinking can be contagious. When positive thinking spreads, it can open doors to new ideas, customers, friends, etc.

Persistent Action

Now all of the positive thinking and believing in the world is useless if it is not applied towards a goal. You have to take action, no excuses are allowed. This action must also be persistent. Trying once and then giving up is not going to be enough. Keep at it one step at a time. If you can’t get by a certain step, then find a creative way to try again or just go around it.

At the beginning of this article we identified a few traits that are common among successful entrepreneurs. You should be able to look ahead and see yourself where you want to be. Now just maintain a strong belief in yourself and your skills, stick with it, and don’t give up. If you can do that, you’re already half way there!
