Train In The Language They Dream In
'Train in the language they dream in.' Jim Knight, trainer extraordinaire for Hard Rock Cafe muttered this quote to me a while back. But digging deeper into the meaning, today's youth learns differently than most of us did when we grew up.Today’s employees can plug in an $18 joystick into their TV and play one of five video games. Twenty years ago, it took 5 upright video game consoles to hold that technology. Then they come to work for us and we hand them a ‘manual’. Kids today don’t want to know information, they want to know where to find it when they need it.Shift your focus from memorizing information and making employees

Cold Calling: Just DON'T Do It
Cold Calling is dead. That’s right, it is dead. It is interruption marketing to the highest degree. Consumers are tuning out interruption marketing and the advertising message is not getting through.So why do you continue to cold call? It is probably because your sales manager tells you that you should. And why does he tell you to cold call? It is probably because the sales consultant that your company spent thousands of dollars on advised that the staff should increase their cold calls to increase their sales. Of course, your company needs to see a return on this investment so they advise the sales manager to advise the sales staff to follow the re

About 29% of current homeowners and a much larger percent of consumers with income levels above $50,000 feel it best to stay as far away from offers to finance or refinancing their home as possible. And this seemly for good reason. Trying to get a great deal on a mortgage loan or shopping for low rate refinancing can be a pain in the neck and a complete and total hassle for most of us. What's worse, when we think we've found a great offer we’re made to feel like a heel when we start asking questions about rates, points and fees. But of course their making us feel like a heel is all a part of the game, right?

The fact is many large transactions make it to the closing table under duress, an urgent need to relocate or the pressure to relieve oneself of heavy debt obligations. Aside from these factors most of us just aren’t motivated to make changes on a financial basis even if means risking sustaining our present way of life.

Ignorance Is Bliss Until... Often the real reason behind not being motivated to make major home improvements or lower ones mortgage rates to something more reasonable may very well be the bliss of ignorance. That is to say the bliss of simply not knowing how. Not knowing how to finding the right loan. Not knowing how to find the right lender. Not knowing how to lower ones rates or how to eliminate all the unnecessary red tape. Not knowing how to tell a predatory lender from a lender who actually has your best interest reflected in his closing documents. Not knowing how to accelerate the loan pro

Property Owners Lower Vacancy Rates bBy Using Pet Friendly Websites
With homes sales at record levels in recent years, the rental housing market has been out of the spot light when discussing the housing market. According to David Berson, Vice President and Chief Economist of Fannie Mae, the housing boom created a large shift away from renting toward home ownership. However, homeownership rates have recently slipped due to rising interest rates and other economic factors, which have pushed up rental vacancy rates on properties to all-time highs.The US Census Bureau reports the National Vacancy rate is at 9.8% for all rental units (as of 4th Q 2006), with the largest vacancy rate of 12.4% in the South. As a result, i

A Picture is Worth One Thousand Sales
It’s the question I’m sometimes afraid to hear from my wife: “Oh, you’re going to the store? Could you pick me up some [detailed, miscellaneous items]?” Forget about the extra trip down an aisle or spending a few more bucks. The real problem is getting the exact item that she wants: the light (not fat free) French vanilla ice cream or the newest version of baked (not regular) chips.By now, my wife has learned a valuable trick to get the exact item she wants: she shows me the empty box.Why is producing a visual the easiest way for her to explain and for me to understand exactly what she wants? And why is it easier for me to remember that

Determine if an Equity Home Loan Second Mortgage is Right for You
If you're wondering whether or not you should tap the equity in your home for a loan, you may have discovered that there are a few different ways you can borrow that money. For example, you can borrow it as a home equity line of credit, or HELOC, which, similar to a credit card, allows you to draw off the balance over and over again. On the other hand, a home equity loan, sometimes referred to as a Second Mortgage, pays you the amount you borrow in one lump sum, and you can't access it again without taking out another loan. So, is an equity home loan second mortgage right for you? Probably, if you can answer "yes" to these questions:Do You Have S

right loan. Not knowing how to find the right lender. Not knowing how to lower ones rates or how to eliminate all the unnecessary red tape. Not knowing how to tell a predatory lender from a lender who actually has your best interest reflected in his closing documents. Not knowing how to accelerate the loan process. It’s no wonder we don’t know how to approach these issues, most of the news articles and periodical we read don’t address these needs and issues with enough depth to achieve the desired results.

The sad thing is when we finally decided to look into doing something about it all we get fed is a bunch of hot air from folks who can’t wait to get their grimy hands on our money or worse hour home. So we sit and we wait until the pretence that we are protecting our assets runs thin. While we wait and do nothing we are confronted with the fact that while everyone else’s home is appreciating ours may actually be depreciating not to mention the need to address all the mounting credit card debt and those bills that seem to be piling up daily. Yes ignorance is bliss until the roof caves in or the termites take a bite out of that untreated deck.

Knowing Is The Best Motivator We must admit at some point in time that protecting our assets can be better accomplished when we know exactly who and what we’re protecting them from in the first place. And that would be our creditors, the termites and above all ignorance itself.
