Good directions can make or break that fragile budding relationship.

Your customers don’t care how hard you worked or how many times you’ve Technology, properly used, can help shoulder the load of running a business-—selling things via e-commerce, for example. If you think MLM is a pyramid scheme, think again. MLM is legal and the most equitable business model in existence. The only existing legal pyramid scheme is an American corporation, where the person at the top of the organizational pyramid earns big money and all the employees are at the base of the pyramid and earn substantially less. Kiyosaki says: 4. “Many entrepreneurs have a great product or service, but don’t have the business skills to build a successful business around that product or service.” Finding and Creating Business OpportunitiesHow, in your own lives can you find and more importantly create opportunities?In the Chinese language, you have the character representing crisis and the character representing change. When these are combined you have the character representing opportunity. Now why is that? Why is it that when crisis and change merge you have opportunity?Because when crisis and change merge you have disequilibria. You have changing laws or changing conditions. New needs and problems are created and often it is up to the entrepreneurs to fill those needs.Whenever you experience new things Robert Kiyosaki, the “Rich Dad” of “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” fame, advanced self-employment in a recent article. We've added our thoughts to his. Kiyosaki says: 1.“Schools train students to be employees who look for jobs rather than train entrepreneurs who create jobs and businesses.” Alquist adds: America’s current public school educational model predates even the demised Industrial Revolution, going back into agrarian society, giving students ample time off to help parents with the family farm at harvest time. Since only 1 to 2% of Americans are involved in agriculture, a summer vacation for students to help at the harvest isn't needed. Although information doubles or triples ever three years, we still have a 180 day school year. Students, then, are in the classroom every other day. Educational “improvements” often take the form of coneheaded social engineering and rabid political posturing—-often racist manipulation of groups against each other—rather than more effective learning. Don’t agree? Then please explain why Floridians have an average level of educational attainment at the third grade level, according to the Florida State Chamber of Commerce. Most other states rejoice to attain an unimpressive 7th or 8th grade average level of educational attainment. It’s even worse than Robert Kiyosaki says. Not only don’t schools train entrepreneurs, they fail to train competent employees as well. 2. Kiyosaki says: “The skills to be a good employee are not the same as skills needed to be a good entrepreneur." Alquist adds: That’s true and needs little elaboration. If you want to learn how to be an entrepreneur, you need to read and study the writings of successful entrepreneurs. You will not find these books in many libraries or most schools or even many college book stores. You’ll find them at major books stores and on the Internet as well. Kiyosaki says: 3. Entrepreneurs sometimes “fail to build a business. They work hard as self-employed persons, building jobs they own. They’re self-employed but do not really own a business.” Alquist adds: This is manifestation of the “Long Ranger” complex. You think the business is you and all about you. This can be avoided by selectively using professional resources to cover areas where your skills are weak. Remember, even the Lone Ranger had Tonto-—and both had horses--a team of four. The “Lone Ranger” really wasn’t alone. Getting involved in direct selling, including network market/MLM, can solve this problem, if you recruit and train business-minded distributors with strong ambition and a global vision.

Is being self-employed all that it's cracked up to be? Ask anyone what they think about people who are self employed and I will guarantee you that the first response will be that they are all "rich". Yup, it's true, every self employed person is rich or suppose to be, baloney! Now, ask that same question of a dozen self-employed entrepreneurs and I bet you that you will hear twelve different responses.Before working for the "man", I was self-employed on the East Coast having owned 4 small businesses; not all at the same time, thank the Lord.

For some, it could well be the one which takes little or no commuting while many would rate a high paying job a perfect one. There is also a good deal of majority that rates less of bossism as uppermost when it comes to choosing a perfect job? Well, the big question on hand is whether your current job is a perfect one or not.Defining the Basics of a Perfect Job An ideal job has many attributes.

Would you like to spend more time at home with family, friends, or engrossed in your favorite hobbies? What is stopping you? Ah…yes, you need money. What if I was to inform you that you can have the best of both worlds? Would you read on? Owning your own franchise is the ticket in making a lot of money while enjoying things in life you love. It does not take much to start and the chances of failure of very low as well. All you really need is the passion to succeed and some insight to get you started.

Kiyosaki says: 4. “Many entrepreneurs have a great product or service, but don’t have the business skills to build a successful business around that product or service.” Alquist adds: Building a business around that product or service is achieved by realizing that your business is not only not about you, it’s not about your product or service, either. However, you must promote yourself to show prospects that you are the best and that they should be doing business with you. Business building starts when you realize that it’s all about the customer, learning his/her needs, real or perceived, and providing solutions in the form of your products or services--at a profit, of course. Unless you develop and follow a Business Plan, you will be working a job you own rather than a business you own. In addition to product training, policy and procedures training, and sales training, you need extensive business training--general, yet substantial, so you will learn how to build and operate any kind of business. This must include finance and accounting (two different things), business plan creation, and consumer and business marketing (including its related disciplines: advertising, sales promotion, public relations and direct response).
