    Entrepreneurial Ongoing Education Advice
    I would like to give some advice to all the up and coming entrepreneurs; if you really want to be a superstar not only do you have to work harder and smarter than the competition, but you must always keep learning. I built a company from a bucket of water and a sponge into a National Car Wash Franchise System in 23 states. To do this you need to know more than what they taught you in school and you can never turn off your brain. Every person is different and has different interests. But I would like you to read thru my recommended reading list. This is a list I hand out to MBA and Entrepreneurial Students when I

    Starting A Small Business
    Running a small business is a challenge in today’s world, but the rise of the internet has provided a new medium for the small entrepreneur to thrive. Both traditional and internet businesses will fail if the owner does not understand the basic fundamentals.All businesses must have a purpose, but it needs to be more than making a lot of money. It should be more specific for example “PHP program for internet applications”. Once you have a purpose your business will be more focused. Begin with the end in mind. Know where you are going and you can take the next step.Make a plan. Do you spend the day ju

    The Cycle of Change
    While many business professionals understand the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle as it pertains to process improvement, the model doesn’t work particularly well for dealing with changes in individual or organizational behaviors. However, an alternative model based on Gestalt psychology can be very useful, and consists of four major phases.1. Awareness – Significant change is unlikely to occur if the entity is not aware of the need for change, which is why feedback mechanisms are necessary. Individual performance appraisals, customer satisfaction surveys, and reviews of organizational & process performance

    Returning to the Workforce: Employment Gaps One Step at a Time
    You’re really doing it. You’re going back into the rat race. After being out of the workforce for a couple of months - or even several years - it’s time to jump back in with both feet. But how do you do it?I Can Do ItThat’s your mantra for your job search. You’re concerned – even intimidated – by all those people out there who have a stellar work-record. But you know what? You have something special and unique that you can bring to an employer. That is what you have to remember throughout this whole process.

    Dealing With Difficult Clients
    We’ve all had ‘em – the client from Dante’s murderous seventh circle. If you'd like to avoid dispatching with a possible good source of income, here are some ideas I use in my web development business for recovering and coming out like a champ. Really listen. I’ve found that when I’m detecting some frustration on the client’s part, often simply acknowledging the reason for the frustration clears the path for a resolution. For example, the client says, “No orders have come in since we launched the site you built 2 seeks ago”. Instead of taking a “Not my fault” attitude, try repeating their

    The Two Peak Times for Job Hunting
    For many years, I have tracked the cycles in hiring and job hunting to see if there are discernable patterns to job hunting success.Although there have been exceptions (such as in the opst-9/11 recessions), the two best times of the year to find work are in the period following Labor Day and in the period following the start of the new year.The reasons for this are pretty simple.In the post-Labor Day boomlet, job hunters believe that with summer vacations over, companies can get back to hiring.

After the business day ended, several IRMCO associates stayed into the evening, keeping their doors open so that the 50 attendees of the open house, including staff and clients of First Bank & Trust, which sponsored the event, could see what a winning workplace looks like up close.

    Why did we choose IRMCO as a successful small business example? Because the fourth generation family-owned business is not only surviving but thriving in an industry that’s facing tough times with plant closures, downsizing and fierce foreign competition, among other problems. As IRMCO CEO William “Jeff” Jeffery said, “One problem we’ve seen is that because there have been so many la
