    Ask Not What You Can Do for the Government; Ask What the Government Can Do for Your Business
    Women business owners are increasing substantially, and if they go through the proper channels there are several governmental organizations set up to play a support role in helping those companies thrive. But as many things associated with state and federal governments, a slow-moving bureaucracy can bog down by the process.One of the bigges
    Let’s face it. Not every business person is a marketing expert. Sure, you’re great at plumbing, moving, or appliance sales, but that’s where it ends. After all, you have an accountant, insurance person, financial planner, and perhaps an attorney to guide you in those areas you are not familiar with. So why not admit that you are also uneducated when it comes to promotion and advertising? Now, was that so hard?

    Look at your YP budget. It may be 1000’s a month. Therefore, with a $25,000 annual investment at stake, why take chances? It’s not just the money, it’s the future of your business. Let’s review just a few of the problems with YP advertising that you have to deal with:

    1. The directory is on the street for a year and can’t be changed once the ad is set
    2. You must have a tracking device in place to know how it is working
    3. Have you predetermined your ROI or return on investment to know your profit?
    4. Are you in the right headings and books for your market?
    5. Have you figured out the best size and copy for your ad?

    There are actually more than 100 other points to cover before you sign the contract and commit to spending all that money. So, are you ready to hire that consultant? I didn’t think so.

    Employment Law, Part II
    Look here it is, this is America for Americans; English is the spoken language. You must be immunized to come here since we have already gotten rid of major diseases like small pox. You must shower and shave and wash your hands if you work in a restaurant, hot water and soap after using the restroom. Why can’t we enforce the basics? Are we tha

    A Quick Guide To Online Directories

    Turning Piles into Files
    Are you searching for an organized office?  Then, the best thing you can do for yourself is schedule the time to clear the "To File" box and all those piles that have accumulated on your desktop, counters, chairs and floor.  If you want organization, you will need to get rid of the piles and break the habit of piling.  The secret is developing a f

    What Is DFSS And How Does It Compare To DMAIC?
    For those organizations that are constantly engaged in innovating their products or services, DFSS, an acronym for Design for Six Sigma, is not new. But the general statement by many that they are implementing Six Sigma shows that they are a little bit confused - in most cases one will be using DMAIC, which is applicable in cases where there are p

You’re already worried about how much they will charge, right? Wrong! That’s not you’re biggest concern. Instead, focus on what they do to make their money.

    For example, are they a cutter? That is, a person who makes a living by reducing your program and charging a percentage of what they save you. So, by slashing your ads, they pocket a bunch of cash and leave you high and dry with a lousy YP program. Or, are they really a consultant with your best interest at heart? Do they charge by the hour or job? Can they be trusted? Do they have references? What is a good consultant worth, anyway?

    I was a YP rep and consultant for nearly 25 years and, prior to that, had my own advertising agency. I also have a degree in marketing. I’ve been designing Yellow Page ads for the past three decades. So I have expertise in YP creation and have advised almost 7000 companies on how to put together the most effective YP ads. If you have a display or in-column ad, regardless of size, color or position, I can tell you it most probably needs improvement in the headline, artwork, body text, placement, book, or heading. You must understand the ROI or return on investment and learn how to track the results as well.
