The Behavioral Selection Method (BSM) is quickly becoming the most utilized method of selecting candidates for employment. The reason: it is VERY effective.There are three kinds of information the recruiters are trying to get from you.1. Work & Education History / Certifications / Skills2. Specific Experiences3. Interest / DesiresYour resume will provide the “high-line” facts, such as where you went to school and what you’ve done, and for whom.

As hard as you may try, there is simply not enough time in a day to be good at everything. In fact, it is impossible. You may excel administratively in 1-3 areas but not all. For example, you may be a great manager and know little or nothing about accounting and law or sales. And if you try and perform all these business tasks yourself, you will eventually crumble under the workload and you and your business will fail.
One way to overcome this problem is to surround your self with professionals and people with specialized knowledge you lack. For most start ups this means you need professional assistance with accounting, law and marketing.

One of the most important things in franchising is to build a Confidential Operations Manual that will explain every single part of your business so your franchisees will have them available and can study them. Unfortunately, you also must be careful that your Confidential Operations Manual does not fall into the hands of competitors.In Mr. Gerber's book; The E-Myth, he explained the necessity of being able to put together an operations manual and it is more important in franchising than probably any other industry. This is one thing that the future franchisor must do for himself and yet so many companies specialize in mak

One of the most powerful marketing tools you can use is the customer testimonial. Since the person giving the testimonial has actually paid for your product or service, prospective customers often give these more weight than other marketing materials you may produce.Who should use testimonials? Anyone. Contractors can have a folder of written testimonials to show clients when they are quoting on a job. A clothing store can use excepts from testimonials in its newspaper advertisements. An interior decorator could have testimonials throughout her portfolio. If you have satisfied customers, use them to sell to future customers.

The ‘S’ corporation is a dinosaur. It has been over-rated and overused as a ‘knee-jerk’ default entity choice when in fact its usefulness is limited to specific circumstances. Many well-meaning advisers have for years urged their clients to use the ‘S’ corporation based upon outdated case law or cocktail party conversations that were a poor substitute for continuing education. As a practical matter, the ‘S’ corporation’s utility is severely limited, primarily because it restricts flexibility, ownership choices, tax savings and liability protection.The LLC is usually a better choice. Here’s why.

Are you a small retailer or service business owner? Have you harnessed the power of the internet, specifically email, to communicate your marketing and sales messages to your customers and prospects? You should… here’s why and how to use small business email marketing!It’s estimated that over 60 billion emails are sent daily. That’s “billion” with a b!

Of those that are opened, many will never be read.As a small retailer or se
Let’s assume your hands are tied financially (which they are most often for small start ups) and you don’t have the money to recruit these professionals. What do you do?

Now, you want the transfer of equity in your business to happen over time contingent upon the performance of the professionals rendering services on your behalf. In other words, you want to “pack the board of directors” with professionals that have a financial interest in the health and well being of your business and have them perform high quality service on behalf of the organization.
The most strategic first associate you should seek is an attorney. First, a lawyer can give you legal advice and produce legal documents you may need to run your business including legal compliance with state and federal authorities. Additionally, lawyers tend to be well networked with accountants and bankers.
The second most strategic associate is finding a good accountant. You attorney may suggest some possibilities or you may already have an accountant (who may be able to recommend an attorney to join your mastermind group). Besides handling your accounting, accountant's tend to be well networked with lawyers, bankers and potential investors.
Ideally you want to “pack the board” with a banker too. Your lawyer and accountant may be able to help draw a banker into your organization and this will be a real benefit if
