Setting Up to Win: Easy-on-the-Feet Trade Show Exhibits
It's a four-day trade show. By the halfway point the booth staff is earnestly looking for any way to ease their aching feet. Staffing a trade show exhibit is invariably a trial of stamina and endurance. It is something of a marathon, but unlike a marathon, you aren’t allowed to show your discomfort and fatigue. Quite the opposite, in fact. From the moment the doors open each morning through whatever events run into the evenings, you must be meeting and greeting, cruising and schmoozing, focused on making sales and making connections.Dr. William Scholl of Dr. Scholl's foot product fame often said, "When your feet hurt, you hurt all over." When you’re working a trade show, standing around for long periods of time over a number of days, you know exactly what he meant. Your efficiency l

It's time to go after Wal-Mart, everybody's favorite corporate whipping boy......even if it's the customer who comes out ahead. Wal-Mart wants to open a limited-purpose bank in Utah from where it could provide service nationwide, but first it must secure approval from the Federal Deposit Insurance Agency (FDIC) and from Utah regulators. The retailer has said it merely wants to process its own credit and debit transactions, but opponents fear it is positioning itself to expand further into retail banking. Wal-Mart says it would save money if it could handle its own debit, credit and electronic-check transactions through an in-house bank. It says it would not offer payment processing to other retailers, nor open bank branches for the public. Opponents fear Wal-Mart eventually will open bank branches, forcing small community banks out of business.

Tax Tips for 2006 - This Will Shock You
While 90% of the U.S. population is bemoaning the quickly approaching April 15th tax deadline, I am waiting for my gift from the IRS. I big fat refund. How you ask?

Maybe the company that has saved Americans "billions and billions" could drive down fees for use of automated teller machines and other charges, he wrote. Such letters now number nearly 2,000 - the largest-ever response to a bank application at the FDIC where the issue is so controversial that the FDIC has taken the unusual step of holding public hearings. Unfortunately, though, these hearings may become more of a sideshow and it's likely the issue will be more a referendum on Wal-Mart the store, than on Wal-Mart the potential banker.
