A Business Owner Asks, How Do We Get to Disney World?

Because you're new here, you may want to subscribe to our RSS feed!

“Let’s go to Disney World!” is the cry heard by millions of parents each year. “But how we get there?” parents often cry a few weeks before the trip.

Planning for the long-range success of your business can be boiled down to the same three step exercise you use to map out your trip to see Mickey.

First, (and of greatest importance) you have to get a handle on where you are right now, as a business and as a family.

Second, you need to determine where you want to be. As Will Rogers said, “It really doesn’t matter that you are making great time if you’re heading in the wrong direction.”

Finally, you need to sort out the available alternatives will allow you to move smoothly from where you all are to where you want to. Read the rest of this entry »

Ritz Carlton- Succession Planning

Ritz Carlton has become a lot more structured around succession planning. When will you be ready for the next spot, who have you groomed to take your spot? Everybody is told you are not going anywhere, until they have trained somebody beneath them. It does not matter whether you are a 25-year old manager or a 65-year old manager; there should always be an individual ready to fill your position. Another consideration is making sure the talent is the right fit for the right job; it is not enough just to have people in the organization, but you have to have great people in the right roles.

So, it’s Talent plus Fit times Investment equals Growth.

Investment looks like:

• Expectations

• Measurables

• Scorekeeping

• Rewards and recognition

• Performance appraisal done on time

• Understanding different generations

And if you flip it, it is Growth equals Investment times Fit plus Talent. G=I*(F+T) In other words: GIFT.

Attention Shaklee Rep: Strategies for building your online biz!!

http://WhoIsMichaelBarrett.net .Do you need strategies on how to build your Shaklee business online? Do you need to understand the process of building your Shaklee biz using online methods. Use these tips and tricks to build your Shaklee biz!

Review:

Shaklee, isn’t that your Mom’s business opportunity?

Shaklee was started in 1956 by Dr Forest C. Shaklee. Shaklee was one of the first nutritional companies and one of the pioneers of the multi level marketing industry. Shaklee spent years creating public awareness on the validity of the multi level marketing distribution channel. Today there are over 3000 network marketing companies in the US alone. The network marketing industry today is almost a 100 Billion dollar industry worldwide. The industry owes this to the pioneers who legitimized this industry which, Shaklee was a part of.

The Products

Home Care – Get Clean offers you nontoxic and natural cleaning choices that are SAFE, POWERFUL, GREEN and SMART. Because when it comes to keeping your house clean and the earth safe, you shouldn’t have to choose. When you use Get Clean, you’re never simply cleaning. While you make your home cleaner, you can make your family healthier. You also make the planet healthier for other families as well.

Weight Management – Shaklee offers a line called Cinch. Cinch is a full spectrum weight management system that will help you build muscle, lose fat and lose inches. Cinch was designed by doctors who understand that weight management programs must not only work but allow for you to eat good food.

Skin Care – Shaklee has created a line of skin care products that are based on the philosophy that your skin also needs vitamins.

Nutrition – Shaklee has a wide range of health and nutrition products that are designed to help promote health and vitality for all ages.

Business Opportunity

The business opportunity within Shaklee is similar to that of any MLM today. To create success within the MLM industry you will need to recruit friends and family, attend and promote hotel meetings, attend and promote product parties, attend and promote home presentations and attend company sponsored seminars. After analyzing the compensation structure the conclusion is the average person will not achieve any substantial success within Shaklee. While the products are good and can effect your life in a positive way, the business model is out dated and not set up for the average person. The amount of people needed to create a solid six figure income would enter the thousands.

However there is hope if you love the product then we can assist you with an online marketing strategy that will take you Shaklee Biz to the next level. Go to: http://whoismichalbarrett.net and join our FREE Video Boot Camp to develop your online marketing Skill Set…
