Off to a great start!!! (where is the "sarcasm" button) :~D
Um, I did have this job! I built and installed the electronics for cell phone towers. I never got to work on one this high though.. my loss!! ;~D
The first question they asked in the job...
Steve B, no I'm looking for everyone's responses, so yours is just as legitimate as any other. I'm looking for information that will help me build my business on realistic and honest information, so...
Patrysha, Thank you! I have already started taking your advice. While this is a new business concept, it is based on other experiences and businesses I have done. So I have gone to clients and...
Ok, we have established that there isn't much appreciation felt when we get generic "gifts" with the senders' names, contact information and pics on them. I have also learned from you here at the...
Thanks to both of you for your input, you both made some good points. The thing is, no one else is doing the same thing I'm looking into. As I said, there are plenty of business consultants, and an...
If I did that with my first business, I would have priced myself right out of the market.
When I started teaching guitar, research for setting my fees was easy. I simply asked other people who either taught lessons, or took lessons; compared the experience and techniques of the other...
I haven't personally used it, but I have a few friends who have. All of them raved about the return in the investment.
The upside... more people are listening to the radio at any given time than...
Bill, which means give aways don't automatically equate to appreciation, right? Few feel appreciated by being lumped in together with everyone else. Which is what we tell the people with whom we do...
i do it automatically and sporadically and sincerely...dont think i ever would have needed trained for it.... an old way to say it is ...throw the dog a bone.... ... always good to...
I remember when Google used to send out gifts to their publishers many years ago. They stopped doing that in lieu of contributing to a charity. No more lavalamps for publishers!
Heather, that...
I think sometimes a simple thank you can be enough, if it's meant sincerely. One thing that is nice to get, and doesn't often happen anymore, is a handwritten thank you note. I was raised to...
Now I get probably a quarter of the holiday cards that I used to get. Most of them are "personalized" with the name of the sender printed on the inside of the card, my name and address printed by a...
I've found that Appreciation Marketing is one of the best methods of gaining (and especially retaining) customers and clients. Since only about 5% of business people show any kind of appreciation...
There was a time when Appreciation Marketing was simply what business people, sales people and marketers did. The idea that someone who wanted to stay in business didn't show their appreciation to...
Thanks to everyone who gave me input here! 6 months later, I am happy to announce that I do intend on renewing my membership in the Greater Ozaukee Networking Group. They are a great bunch of...
Spider, that is a great approach! Every good business owner or manager has to decide how they will stand out in the minds of their customer base. Looking at it as "creating a new game" is an...
Sounds like your business is not how you make a living. So is your business just a hobby or just not a major source of income?
No, my business isn't my major source of income. I'm retired Army...
Hey Eric! Chicago is a great area! It's only a few hours from Sheboygan, WI where I'm located, so we get to go down there every month or so. Looking forward to reading your posts. Hope we can...
G'day Mate! It will be interesting reading about running a business like yours "down under". Looking forward to your posts!
Business is always fun for me! First of all, since my income isn't dependent on success or failure, it's never a source of stress. Also, when your business is sending greeting cards and gifts, how...

I don't think any advances in technology can equal what the internet has helped us accomplish. It has literally brought the world together in ways no one could have imagined without it. I know my...
