Have You Signed Up for Overdraft / Non-Sufficient Fund Fees Yet?
Jun 20th
When I was working for a particular bank one of the most challenging service issues that I had to periodically deal with was regarding Overdraft and Non-Sufficient Fund Fees. I was responsible on educating customers on how the fees were assessed and how to avoid them in the future. It definitely wasn’t something they wanted to hear. I do certainly see the occasional convenience More >

RANT: Get an idea and STICK to it!
Mar 4th
I’ve been bitten by the entrepreneurial bug back in the year 2001 (Thanks to Robert Kiyosaki’s – Rich Dad Poor Dad Book) and ever since I’ve had this goal of becoming a millionaire. I’ve accepted that I won’t achieve this by winning the lottery, singing or being an athlete. I have no other alternative other than starting successful businesses (note the plural form of the word). As I was cleaning my room I’ve happen to come across some old business plans of other ventures that I’ve attempted. I consider them a success because I’ve actually generated some type of income from it however they failed because of one thing and that is consistency. I’ve come to the realization that making money isn’t the hard part, it’s actually making money over and over again. Coming up with an idea isn’t challenging for me however sticking to it is. Is that some form of business A.D.D.?

Feb 9th
After the Superbowl CBS took the opportunity to broadcast a pilot of “Undercover Boss” a show that follows a Top Company Executive while they go undercover in their own business to see how the company truly runs. The first episode was of COO Larry O’Donnel from Waste Management. He posed as a new hire for entry level jobs such as recycling belt sorting, port-o-john cleaning, garbage picker upper, administration dancing/running and driving in a pickup truck with a lady whom can’t go and take a break to do number 1 More >

Use relevant ads for your blogs content to make money
Jan 10th
When Yahoo! was the search engine leader, one of their biggest faults was their irrelevant ad placement on their pages. That is how Google was able to gain a strong foothold in the internet marketing market. Nowadays you can get a piece of the trillion dollar industry just by simply having a blog that has reoccurring visitors. One concept of advertising that I have that was very successful at one point was More >

Sometimes the best marketing ideas are those that appear to NOT be marketing. Mother London, a marketing firm in, well, London came up with a clever strategic marketing plan that involved, $10,000 US Dollars Cash in a briefcase, YouTube video, time, viral marketing techniques and named the video “The Honest $10,000 Spam.” albeit the genius concept, the end of the video is very heartwarming. Check out the video.

Vacation Day 1 – Self Study PHP Programming = Not successful
Dec 28th
My brain is like a hurricane of web project ideas. Projects in which they definitely would be successful. I’ve had some success stories with some programming and many more failures. I’ve downloaded some e-books on Facebook Application Programming for Dummies and on the first project BAM! PHP parse error. To be honest I have no knowledge on how to program in PHP but I’m dying to create some mean web apps with it. I think it’s time that I start following Robert Kiyosaki’s advice and realize that I have no time to be an expert in something new and just focus on my strength in sales and sell my ideas to some web programmers. Or perhaps I should just go ahead and pay a programmer to do it. Choices, choices choices..
