Over the last few months, we’ve had three posts about pricing, a two-part piece from David Ziser and one from Joe Farace. Here’s another outstanding perspective from Sal Cincotta.  If Sal isn’t on your radar he should be. In fact, he’s on the road now, with a terrific tour. Here’s the Link to register  for [...]

I was in a bind this morning. Nothing to write about and a little unprepared since we’re flying out early and headed home after WPPI. But then like magic, my good buddy Terry Clark sent me an email in response to yesterday’s post about their being no shortcuts to building your business.
 
After 20+ years in [...]

I recently saw an email blast from my buddy, George Varanakis at Rangefinder/WPPI. He listed the top ten reasons not to miss WPPI. Personally, I’d drop a few and add a few, one of them being your ability to interact with vendor after vendor to help strengthen your business. I’d also add, one trip to Vegas gets you exposed [...]

It wouldn’t be the week between the holidays without a nice walk down Memory Lane. In November, 2010, I talked my Dad into writing a post for me. Now, a year later and having moved to within a few miles of his home, I’m even more amazed at the relevance of his experiences from business, starting 70 [...]

This is one of those weeks when we all tend to reminisce. So, in starting to look back over the last year, I found myself going back even farther and read one of my first posts, originally run on GoingPro, almost two years ago.  Like the post I got my Dad to write over a [...]

 I want to step away from the theme this blog usually has and focus on a key to your growth in business. It’s that time of year again, the holidays. Whether your beliefs take you to last night’s first night of Hanukkah or Christmas this weekend, doesn’t matter. It’s year end and a time when you’re going to be [...]

Ever had a day when you just wanted to do something different? Well, welcome to my Friday morning challenge. I have a great how-to post ready to go and I can’t get something off my mind.  It’s all because of a kitchen magnet I’ve looked at numerous times a day for three years. I know I [...]

Some of you are already aware that I’m a regular contributor to GoingPro. Two to three times a week my posts run on that blog as well. I posted this last Friday, but it’s one of my favorites and I wanted to share it here on my own blog.
I consider myself one of the luckiest [...]

So, I’m flying back from NYC yesterday and I’m all the way back in row 31 with the goats and chickens! The good news is that I got to board early. The bad news – it took two weeks to get off the plane and I thought I’d miss the holidays.  Up about ten rows [...]
