    The Brown Paper Nightmare
    Wrapping packages in brown paper makes the package unacceptable for UPS shipping. The Post Office may charge you a "non-machineable surcharge" for using brown paper on your box.What is the problem with wrapping brown paper around a box?1. Brown paper is subject to tearing. Because UPS, as well as the Post Office, has automated sorting facilities with long conveyor belts in the "hubs," your package may be moving along the conveyor belt with packages up to 150 pounds right next to it. If your package gets banged along the way, the paper is subject to being torn. If this continues to happen along the belt, UPS might have a box at the end of the line with no brown paper wrap, and therefore no label either. They will not know where to ship the box and it ends up in the lost and found pile.2. People often think that brown

    Dreams are great. Go to a NFL football game and you can see yourself on the field along with the other BIG guys. Sack the quarterback! Run for a long pass and take the ball into the end zone for a touchdown.

    Face it! Your 200-lb. body (men) is out of shape. Maybe just a little bit! Anyway, all of us need to stay fit or "payday" is coming. Either we pay the price for fitness while it is still possible or we pay the consequences later. Our choice. No one is holding a gun to our head demanding action.

    What Employers Look For In Salespeople
    We’ve talked a lot about how the economy is hot right now and we’re in a full employment situation, and the fact is that what employers are looking for right now in good sales people is having a strong “hunter” profile. There are lots of different types of sales profiles out there, but the individual who is really talented and passionate about finding and closing new business, opening new accounts and generating new market share for a company provides the most value. If you are a true hunter with strong prospecting and qualifying skills, you have the best opportunities to get ahead in your sales career. Account mangers and people who are classified as “farmers” on the sales continuum are easy to develop from within. In fact account management for handling existing business with existing customers often is a customer service role.
     

    FIRST STEP --

    Set short-term, incremental goals. Work up to larger plans later. Never put yourself under the gun right from the get-go. If you do... discouragement will be right at your doorstep. You’ll quit! Remember your New Year's resolutions?

    Set incremental time frames. Short-range goals are very important. Begin the first month and increase a little bit each succeeding month. Don’t give up too early in the game.... give yourself a chance to succeed.

    Set UP too big a goal and you know..... nothing happens! Most of us throw in the towel rather than work slowly to the next plateau. Remember all those BIG goals in the past.... how long did they last?

    SMALL BITES

    Achieve success in small bites. Step-by-step your confidence builds. If you fall down.... get back up. Miss the target and make the correction. Go again with renewed enthusiasm and determination.

    Some of us 'workout'.... at least we have good intentions.... before we get out of bed and our feet hit the floor. Strong guys like to "Bench" press. Big "boys" enter strong man contests. Physical fitness is (should be) a major goal for everyone. Keeps our bodies in good working order or it soon will begin to "break" down.

    Our motivation can fall away in small bites, too. Don’t lose heart in what you are trying to accomplish. Set a daily time to be at the gym. Walk a mile in your neighborhood. Lift those weights "downstairs" or in the "recreation" room. Be sure to 'journal' every day's accomplishments.

    REASON-ABLE

    Are you reasonable? Most of us are NOT! We are not reasonable in setting goal limits. More is always better. Yes, it is OK to stretch. Run a block. Two blocks. Three blocks and then some. You put down a MILE on the very first day? Don’t do it! Same goes for weight lifting at the fitness center.

    Yes, it does look better to us in our day-timer. But not on the first day that you decide it’s time to get in shape. A lot depends on how long it's been since you ran a mile. For most of us, the answer is NEVER.

    How old are YOU? 32, 44, 56, 68 (whatever your age) does not make any difference. The "couch" has kept you in your comfort zone for the last 5,10,20 years. Now, for whatever reason, you are on a new exercise "kick". You are going to show the "world" that you still have it!

    You are a prime candidate to have a heart attack in the middle of the street. Be fair to yourself and good to your family. Slow down. There is No rush after all those years when your body was not showing its age UNTIL recently.

    NOTICE IN SLOW MOTION

    One day at a time our bodies "sag" or "droop" a little more than the day before. Can’t even see it happening. A slow process but very sure in a non-threatening way. Only after many years do we begin to "kinda" notice the change.

    Eyelids droop. Bags form under the eyes. A little "flab" falls under the arm. Can’t seem to see our feet any longer. Love handles have suddenly surrounded us. Hair color begins to match our former dye color. Roots are showing through or turning loose.

    Nose hairs are out of control along with hair in the ears. Your Barber now seems to find a lot more places that need trimming than before. Things that never HURT in the past have suddenly taken on a life of it's own. New aches and pains arrive daily.

    REACHABLE GOALS

    Forget about joining the NFL. Olympics are out of the question. Don’t count on buying a 20-speed bicycle and climbing Mt. Mitchell or riding the Blue Ridge Parkway in the mountains of North Carolina. Keep driving the church bus if you want to see the leaves "turn" and take the Senior citizens with you.

    Die Cutting Equipment
    Several pieces of equipment are used for die cutting. There are three basic types of cutting equipment. The first is a small swing arm ‘clicker’ press that is ideal for embroidery shops. The second is a large ‘traveling head’ press, which is used for multiple cutting and roll cutting. ‘Full head’ press is the third type, and it is used for heavy-duty jobs. Additionally, ‘up-acting’ hydraulic platen presses are available for special applications such as cutting jigsaw puzzles, circuit boards and screen-printed material. Automatic die cutting equipment is excellent for cutting large-formats such as paper, labels, coupon books and plastic membership cards.Other types of die cutting equipment includes clicker punch presses, both automatic and manual roll feed and beam presses.

    Pixel Ads - A Million Dollar Idea
    So is pixel advertising just another fad... here today and gone tomorrow? No one really knows for sure, but right now it's one of the hottest online advertisement mediums.But in order for pixel advertising to have any kind of real staying power, people will have to do more with the concept than just introduce 'knockoff sites'.While the 'cookie-cutter clone' approach favors the quick buck artists, copying Alex Tew's 'Million Dollar Homepage' (www.milliondollarhomepage.com) idea is simply not sustainable in the long run. What's needed, in order for the pixel advertising craze to survive, is for webmasters to give advertisers a legitimate reason to buy pixels from them... other than that it's new and cool. With so many people now selling pixel ads, how do sellers differentiate themselves? Or do pixel ads become a mere comm

    DECISIONS - decisions - DECISIONS

    Big ones. Little ones. Everyday we are making decisions. Some are very important and can even be life threatening. Others make little difference over the long haul. Do you live by the rule - "don’t sweat the small stuff and believe that EVERYTHING is small stuff"? I like that one! Not a bad philosophy either.

    Why is life such a challenge? You would not like it any other way. Sports (football, baseball, basketball, hockey, and soccer) are all competitive. Players are challenged to win and thrive on the competition. Business is a challenge too. Trying to beat the odds and increasing profits every quarter.

    In many parts of the world there are NO challenges. No jobs. No opportunities to earn a decent living. Poor conditions are rampant everywhere.

    In American and other parts of the world there is prosperity and growth in the marketplace. Challenge brings out the best in us. Our competitive nature rises to higher levels. Our goal is to win. A win/win goal is even better.

    BUSINESS CHALLENGES

    Owners are always faced with new challenges in the marketplace. New competitors are arriving daily. Some have lots of money and power. Profit margins are squeezed to the limit. Pricing of our product or service has peaked.

    Expenses are out of control. Our cost for personnel is too much. Where can we make improvements? Cut expenses? Reduce staff? Always on our mind and our worry meter is running constantly.

    Goals must be in place to move our business to the next level. Employees must be challenged or they will not grow and meet expectations. Benefit plans. Insurance coverage. Expenses paid. Travel. Meetings. Industry standards. And the list can go on into infinity and beyond.

    ACTION TIP: Set reasonable and reachable goals for your personal life, for your business and for your employees. Don’t expect to reach the moon in a Piper Cub.

    Begin at your level to set goals for the NOW. What you do today will have an impact on your tomorrow.
