Hub You - Operator Error Is Why Most Businesses Fail
I hate working. Even worse, I hate commuting to work on Monday morning. Monday morning is the brand-new start to the work week. That means five more full days until the weekend.With that said, here's my guide to passing the time while commuting to work: Think about being able to see your colleagues again. Your colleagues and your boss are your daytime friends and, at the end of your morning commute, you will get to see them all again, just like you saw them every day last week, last month, and last year. Observe the drivers in the other vehicles. See how sad they look and realize to yourself how their jo
There are many reasons why businesses fail, but according to a 2003 survey by U.S. Bank, the majority of business failures can be attributed to three reasons: bad management, bad financial planning, and bad marketing.
Let's be straight up honest for a moment....success can really suck. Not all success, of course. Just the kind that sneaks up behind and knocks you down. The wading-through-the-swamp-wrestling-alligators kind of success that leaves you panting, breathless, staring deep into the gator's mouth.How does success go so terribly wrong? And could it happen to you? Oh yeah. It's as simple as having a great idea, promoting it, and discovering that you are utterly unprepared for the impact your business idea will have on the world.It started about 18 months ago, when our company was just me and my business partner, two bright g
A: This is the column that probably gets me kicked out of the entrepreneurial chapter of the Priory of Scion. I look silly in those long robes anyway, so here goes.
A thousand apologies to my entrepreneurial brothers and sisters, but. I think the more important question is: do businesses fail or does the entrepreneur in charge of them fail? I have to be honest and tell you that I think most business failures must be laid at the feet of the person in charge.
Sure, there may be contributing factors to the demise of a business, such as a huge chain store moving in next door, a down economy, the lack of qualified employees, new government regulations, the failure of a strategic partner, etc., but any entrepreneur worth his salt should see such things coming and make adjustments to weather the storm.
And the truth is sometimes the storm can’t be weathered and you have to abandon ship. Is that a business failure or an entrepreneurial failure? I think the coin flips both ways.
Starting a business is never easy and the fact is approximately half of all small businesses fail within the first four years, with a large percentage of those failures occurring in year one.

Financial Advisors come from varied backgrounds, wear different hats and offer vastly different services. So, that begs the question, “What makes an advisor from Merrill Lynch, or UBS, or MetLife, or another firm, big or small, different from any other?”That's a great question – one I get asked all the time. But, the question I often sense lurking well below the surface is one far more rarely asked, if ever. That question is, ... “Who is the right advisor for me and my family?”Slick slogans and fancy websites aside, one thing is sure. It's way harder than ever before to determine who's who in the financial industry an

Electronic data interchange, also known as electronic data processing, is based upon electronic exchange of data between a number of mini and microcomputers in a regular planned system. Electronic funds transfer refers to fund transfers between financial institutions. This allows a large number of businesses to carry out prompt business transactions, orders and invoices. EFT is a precise and efficient system that is considered favorable as compared to traditional money transfer methods.The larger concept of electronic data interchange has been in use since the 1960?s, but gained popularity in the late twentieth century.

The pharmaceutical industry is one of the most lucrative business sectors as evidenced by its $550 billion global industry revenue in 2004. As such, many careers have been developed to cater to the varying needs of the industry. One good example of such a career option is pharmaceutical sales, which is believed to be one of the most sought-after careers in the job market today.The reason behind this trend is that pharmaceutical sales offers extraordinary salary potential, which may go as high as six-figures annually. Other amazing perks are special bonuses, a company car, trainings in exotic locations, flexible work hours, a

The survey showed that seventy-eight percent of the business failures examined were due in part to the lack of a well-developed business plan and a business owner who had no business being in the business he was in.
In other words, the business owner did not have the adequate knowledge or a thorough understanding of the business he had chosen to start. This is why software entrepreneurs like me don’t start shoe stores. I have feet, I wear shoes, but that’s not enough to qualify me to go into the shoe business.
Seventy-three percent of the businesses surveyed were also managed by owners with rose colored calculators. These optimistic entrepreneurs over-estimated revenue and under-estimated cost.
Seventy percent of the failed businesses were led by entrepreneurs who were in denial regarding their own competence, or more to the point, their own incompetence. These business owners either didn’t recognize (or more likely chose to ignore) their own entrepreneurial shortcomings. These entrepreneurs also did not seek assistance from others who might have made up for their inadequacies. It’s hard to ask for help when you are supposed to be the one with all the answers. It’s harder still to lose your life savings when your business ta
