After you’ve completed the inventory of existing files, the next step is to establish user-friendly retention guidelines. Often, offices are glutted with paper and computer files because people using them aren’t given guidelines about what to keep and what to eliminate. Ironically, some organizations do have such guidelines, but they’re not communicated to the people who really need them, or not provided in a user-friendly form. One company I worked with had a guidebook that was nearly a hundred pages long, but poorly organized, and contained information most people didn’t need.As a general rule, retention guidelines are most useful when organized by department, but it’s helpful to know what other departments keep. For example, in one company I discovered three departments (on the same floor) keeping information about potential meeting sites. This is unnecessary duplication and takes far too much space. In addition to keeping it in three places, they kept the information for several years when in fact, it wouldn’t be wise to make a decision about a meeting space based on old information.Talk with staff members People who use files regularly are the best source of information when you’re developing retention guidelines. Use the records inventory form discussed previously as a starting point for discussion, and determine how long people actually use the information that is kept. In many cases, employees may not know—which is exactly the reason for going through this process.Talk with your advisors To further develop your retention guidelines, collect all the information you can from your accountant and general counsel about what information is legally necessary in your company (and see the accompanying box for suggestions). In some cases, your organization may belong to an industry-related association, which might be able to provide additional guidelines. The “Originator’s Ru

Guidelines for selecting a LLC NameSelecting a name for your LLC is one of the first steps in organizing your LLC. The California Secretary of State, will first check to make sure that
your selected name is not currently in active use by another California LLC. In the State of California, LLC and Corporation names are distinctly separate. For example, it is possible to have similar names that only differ by the corporate identifer. There can be a name of 'Company Name, LLC' and 'Company Name, Inc.'. Many states would consider the two previous examples as deceptively similar, but not the California Secretary of State.Likely to DeceiveThe State of California will not file any document that is deceptively similar, has a possibility to decieve the public, or too closely resembles that of another company.Government AffiliationYour selected name must not imply Governmental affiliation.Excluded WordsYour name cannot include the words "bank," "trust," "trustee," "incorporated," "inc.," "corporation," or "corp.", "insurer","insurance company".Required EndingsAll LLCs must end with an approved ending identifier. Your LLC must end in one of the following "Limited Liability Company", "Ltd. Liability Co." or the abbreviation "LLC" or "L.L.C."Checking availability of California LLC NamesIt is possible to easily search for California names using the internet. Simply go to the California SOS web site and lookup your selected names. If you find that your selecting name is available, you can choose to either register your LLC or simply reserve the name for a period of 60 days.

Have you been journaling for many years ? Have you ever considered that the age old tradition of journaling could help make you more profitable in your business life.

I have been journaling for several years… In our Small business office we have a leads journal where all brand new prospective business is immediately written down so we don’t lose it…. Particularly when I get distracted and go off on one of my creative tangents.
I have a daily journal where I write notes on every conversation that I have with a client or supplier as I am having the chat… so I will remember any and all main points, plus my commitments… I have a journal that I write notes in when I am listening

Until 1920, the market price of a business was restricted to negotiations between the buyers and seller, wherein the purchaser depended on his instinct to buy any company. The decisions were based on the forecasted profits and cash flow that usually depended on the seller's standard of living and status in the community. With businesses attaining new heights, the processes of forecasting soon became obsolete. After 1920, the Internal Revenue Service issued a Committee on Appeal and Review Memorandum that suggested using formulas to determine the tangible and goodwill value of the business for selling and gift-tax purposes.In 1959, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 59-60, which became the backbone of finding the true worth of a business in the marketplace. The ruling was further changed and iterated as per the growing complexities of business. By the 1970s and 1980s, the demand for business valuation services was at a peak, and many accounting firms were either setting up valuation departments or acquiring their peers. The demand for valuation paved the way for professional appraisal organizations to come into existence. Companies such as Business Appraisers Inc, and the American Society of Appraisers formed their bases in the US for working on business valuation processes.During 1990s, the National Association of Certified Valuation Analysts was formed, and in 1997, AICPA held its first accreditation examination. The examination granted approximately 500 CPAs with an Accredited in Business Valuation (ABV) designation.Companies such as Napier, Ernst & Young, Morgan Stanley, Mercer Capital, and Kroll are some of the big industry players and provide business valuation services across the globe. The professionalism and the mode in which they conduct their services have given them a standing across the world.

In this maze of medical billing and the countless number of forms, specifications and red tape, the GU0 record ranks up near the top of the list of things that drive billers crazy. The number of fields alone that need to be filled are enough to make you pull your hair out of your head. Add to that the convoluting mapping of these forms and you're in for a two aspirin night after you've come home from work. Hopefully, this series of articles on the GU0 record will help make the biller's life a little easier.

Security, as we’ve suggested before, can mean many things, and different measures bring a feeling of security to different people. But the core of security is controlling access – to oneself (and by extension family or coworkers); to personal information; to portable property, or a physical location, or even, as in the case of stalkers, to proximity.Monitoring is a fundamental component of every method of access control. You have to know who’s there to determine whether or not to allow access. Peepholes in apartment doors, doormen or intercom systems, corporate security guards at gated facilities, and video cameras all serve the same purpose: monitoring to determine identity to permit or deny access.Video cameras are, simply, the most cost-efficient system for monitoring and controlling access to any business. A mounted camera keeps a constant eye on a door or entryway, providing immediate visual identification. It can pan to observe a wider area than a single focus point. A single employee can monitor one camera or a series of cameras located at various access points, thus doing the work of several security guards. Best of all, the camera operates around the clock, never needing a break for coffee, lunch, or the bathroom.Vertex Security offers a wide range of monitoring systems and components to meet every need.Camera attributes include day and night, night vision, PTZ (Pan, Tilt & Zoom), spy cams (discreetly hidden from view), vandal-proof, weatherproof, and wireless.Monitors range in size from 5” to 21”, and are available in black & white or color, wall mounted, stand-alone, rack systems (for up to three separate units each), flat screen, LCD, etc. A small monitor can easily be placed on a receptionist’s desk.Monitoring can be live only – watching – or it can include recording. Putting together the camera and the monitor can be as simple as directly a"> I have been practicing this for about 6 weeks now. Just a couple times a week. It is interesting how it empties the mind.

For those who sell services online, beware of the SCAM CLIENT. The biggest downside to working online is the fact that you have NO GUARANTEE that the other party is going to pay for services rendered. Even if you DO have a Service Agreement, it’s difficult to ensure that the information they’ve provided you with is authentic.Unfortunately, without the proper address, client name, and phone number, it’s near impossible to collect. And working with people outside of the USA is even worse because the same laws as we are here in the states do not govern them.BUT don’t let that little fact scare you away from working online! For every SCAM CLIENT, there are about twenty good clients. Maybe one out of twenty is one too many; I would agree. All it takes is one bad apple on a website like www.Elance.com or www.Guru.com and your reputation could go down the toilet.To ensure you’ll be paid on services rendered, make certain you DO have a Service Agreement. Outline every aspect of the agreement carefully. Use easy to understand terms and include a Payment Schedule. Join an ‘advocate service’ like Square Trade. Although Square Trade doesn’t collect the money from a client that defaults on payment, they will assist you in finding ways to collect for a price.If you’re working through a third party, like Elance or Guru, use their investigation team to pursue the client. Make sure you have a legal clause in your Service Agreement that states the other party is responsible for any additional cost. USA businesses may be able to collect on services that exceed $1,000 by using the Small Claims Court if the client resides or does business in the USA.Whether you are doing business online or locally, it is tough. Always someone out there will try to take advantage of you. Stay on your toes and use the legal system the best you can.Copyrights©2005 Hess Business Prmal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto"> Once you’ve dumped your load and all the great ideas and projects start
