Getting Down To Business - Employee Performance Appraisals benefits you’ll enjoy…When it comes to manning your company, you should aim to know absolutely everything that goes in and out of it. From how much profit the company makes monthly to employee satisfaction. And because it is the company’s duty to know as much as possible, an employee performance appraisal is highly recommended to be done every now and then so that the company will be able to determine what employees are performing well and which ones are in need of improvement.1. Know Before You GoFor those who are tasked to the annual employee performance appraisal, it may seem to be quite a task at first since some departments of the office may be much more difficult to appraise than others. When you are clearly not paying attention to the kind of work that they do as well as their daily output, you are pretty much at that point at a loss about how will you able to write When you have first Crucial element in place – you’ll find that your staff will individually take ownership and responsibility for their roles and responsibilities in your business. They will willingly want to work at their optimal in your business, and make it happen. It’s at that time that they’ll do what’s required of them – willingly. When you have the 2nd crucial element in place you’ll find that Your staff will regularly review, plan and improve areas in your business to help the business grow. Everyone in the business will willingly work together and will be aware of what is going on in the business. Everyone will work efficiently and effectively so that their individual roles work harmoniously with each other thus creating the power of synergy in your business. They’ll also have the initiative to find out what they have to do and when they have to do things by. And finally, when the 3rd crucial element is in place you’ll benefit because your staff will naturally start to follow you. And they’ll wi How Do You Market Two Businesses? Picture this…Because I do a lot of networking with very small business owners, I meet a lot of dual business owners. These are people, usually women, who own two businesses (or more).As a solopreneur, your resources are limited – that is, time and mo'ney. Managing and marketing one business is already a full-time job, so if your two businesses don't share the same target market, you may struggle – a lot.Sharing the same target market allows you to refer business to yourself, and if your two products/services are related, this is smoother. For example, if you are involved with two different MLMs whose products are both wellness related, you can easily market both to the same people. Or, if you have a service business and also sell products that go hand in hand with your service, you can easily market those two businesses together. A good example of this is bein The typical business owner starts a business. Usually it’s just them by themselves or maybe one or two other people. They do a great job. As the number of staff is small everyone is working together and they are getting things done. They become successful and it’s time to employ some more people. A couple more people are employed – but some cracks start to appear. As the business employs some more staff – the cracks become wider and wider. Soon the business owner notices that there’s not much money being made by the business. There’s staff problems. There may be some customers complaining. Some customers may even be lost. Things just aren’t working anymore. The business ‘plateaus’ and the owner becomes stressed, tired and overwhelmed. The business owner starts to ask whether it’s all worth it. Should they downsize and just go back to the way things were… Or do they grow. They want to grow the business – they know that’s there’s heaps of potential in the business – yet they keep hitting ‘a brick wall’. They are trying to make it to the next level, but they keep getting sucked back in to the business to ‘put out fires’… and it’s wearing the owner down. Sound familiar? I see this all the time. It’s at this point that my clients seek me out. I specialise in helping business owners through this point in their business growth. And it’s easy; I do this day in day out. Let me describe how the previous situation happens. In the initial growth of the business, when a business only has a few people – everyone has an idea of what everyone else is doing – so they can work effectively together. Yet when you get to about 3 to 7 people or more, things need to change. Because around that number of people, some of the people can ‘bludge’, they can hide. So they do. After all - at this size, the business owner is usually still ‘doing’ things in the business at this stage, so they have their hands full. And they want to grow so they know they need staff to help them. But because most business owners don’t have much training in how to hire, train and motivate staff – they tend to ‘put up’ with staff that JUST do enough to stay employed. But what happens is that the business owner ends up ‘finishing things off’ that their people have started or can’t do. The business owner tends to ‘save’ the day. They know it, and so does their staff! So their staff let the owners come in to save the day – and they do it often. After all, most people have a lazy streak in them. So why not wait for someone else to do it, “after all it’s their business” – the employee thinks. It’s at this point that the business can often start to wander off track, the business owner can become stressed, overwhelmed and questions whether it’s all worth it. It is worth it, and if you’re at this point in your business – don’t give up – because with a little guidance from me, it’s easy for you to fix. And the rewards can almost immediately start flooding in. If you’re at this point you’ve done most of the hard work in business. You’re turning over good money, you have customers, you have a place in the market, and you have employees. Now it’s a process of getting IT all to work for you. Rather than YOU having to do all the work – to make it work. Because when you get your business working – you won’t have to work. The reason why most business owners work so many hours – is because their business doesn’t work. All successful business owners have stepped through this phase in business growth. It’s a phase where your staff have to step up and do what you are employing them to do – without you having to ‘look-over-their-shoulder’ to make sure it’s getting done. There are 3 Crucial things that you must have in place for you to make it through this phase successfully. On my 1-on-1 business coaching program I take you though these 3 crucial things so that you have them specifically and especially designed and implemented for your business. That way it’s unique for you and your situation. When you have these 3 crucial things in place here are the benefits you’ll enjoy… When you have first Crucial element in place – you’ll find that your staff will individually take ownership and responsibility for their roles and responsibilities in your business.

Yes you heard that right, your support system TRULY stinks! But I am not telling you to get you mad, but help you realize that by "plugging into the system" with blind faith is a huge mistake.Sure you may feel a temporary high after listening to your big time upline repeat these lines. But have you actually taken into consideration if it has actually helped you become richer and more successful? Probably not. See if you can relate:Upline: You can do it winner! You: Yeah, yeah I heard that a billion timesUpline: Staying excited and enthusiastic is the secret. Do you know what enthusiastic means? It means the God within YOU man! You: I stayed enthusiastic for the whole year, have no results to show for it.

If everyone gets a raise once a year, better wait it out. If there is no “usual,” then you begin your research. What are the salaries of similar positions in your company? What are the salaries of similar positions in other companies? What is the national average for your position? (You may turn up a promising new job in all this research).Make a list of all your accomplishments in your present job. Find at least one that stands out. Now you are ready. Unless this next move is really weird, make an appointment with your boss.Give one reason you deserve a raise, then request the raise in these words or similar words; For example:“I’ve solved the problem in the mailroom that was costing us $4,000 a month, and I would like you to consider g Now it’s a process of getting IT all to work for you.
