If you’re applying for a job today, the chances are excellent that you will have to pass a background check to get hired. In fact, over 90% of companies now run background checks on all applicants. Before you sit down to fill out that very important job application, here are 12 facts you might not know about background checks:* According to Workforce Management, over 45 million background checks were run during the past year.* Most companies use a candidate’s job application, not resume, when running a background check.* 86% of businesses say that

... we just have meetings.Seriously?I've come across that comment a few times in the last year or so and I've never challenged it at the time: there are too many people around who recognise that they need help to spend time worrying about those who think they don't. And yet at the back of my mind I'm aware of a slightly guilty feeling.After all, just because these people don't think they - or their staff - are making presentations doesn't mean they don't need help at it. In fact there's an argument to suggest that precisely bec
Some people say that good sales people are born and have gifts that others are not able to offer. I think that we are all born with natural sales talents and these just need to be recognised and refined to aid the effective growth of our business. In reality we are selling ourselves from the moment we are born and at every stage we seek to influence others to our way of thinking or to take action.
I do believe however that there are ethical methods of producing sales and less ethical methods. The ethical methods are underpinned by two key elements that need to be in evidence. They are:
· Genuinely offering tangible results and benefits to customers linked to specific needs
· Offering advice, support and expertise in order to assist customers in making a worthwhile buying decision

Email is cheaper than direct mail but that’s not why you should embrace it.Your non-profit organization should be communicating with donors and members by email for four strategic reasons.1. InvolveEmail, by its very nature, is interactive. Your readers expect to see links in your email messages, links that they can click. Your readers expect to be able to hit Reply and answer a question you’ve posed, or share their opinion. Email is attractive to donors and members, and your organization, because it helps them get involved.<

Everyone who has been employed has had to deal with negative feedback or rejection. Because we tend to merge our identities with our career, it can be a personal blow to our self-esteem when we are criticized at work. Whether it’s a job rejection, poor performance appraisal, or office gossip, it doesn’t usually bring out our best side.I have to admit, I’ve never been a particularly organized person. I’ve been to so many classes that I could teach one. These issues have followed me from school to work – never going unnoticed. At one point, the work FEEDBACK wo

Feel that? The crisp tingle in the air? It's fall. Fall ushers in the promise of eating, seeing, and getting. It's my favorite time of year. By now, kids are settled into school, sweaters set free from mothballs, and it's an amazing time to... BUY.I don't know about you; but for some reason this time of year lowers my normal customer resistance to retail and turns up my desire to buy, buy, buy. And not just anything. Products I've come to know have reliable value to me. You too?Think about it. It starts with buying Halloween candy. Do you reach for

A professional quality brochure can attract interest to any business, organization, or cause. On the other hand, a poor quality brochure invites readers’ criticism or scorn. Your brochure has a single shot at representing your interests to the public at large. That’s why it is so important to use a top-notch print piece for your office, as a mailer, or in various locations throughout the community.When preparing your brochure for print, make sure it has a clear format, design, and layout. This will give the printer a well-organized document for easy reproduction.

The less ethical methods include technique selling and pressurized sales tactics to cajole customers into buying. I strongly believe that there is no place today for pressurized selling and manipulative “closing” techniques. When a new customer buys from you he or she is “opening” a relationship with you rather than closing anything. The customer/supplier relationship needs to be one of mutual exchange of value.
As part of human nature we like to acquire things that add value to our lives by making it more comfortable, peaceful, meaningful, satisfied, enjoyable and for a myriad of other reasons. So we like to buy things, however, we don’t like being sold to. The sales process therefore should be an interesting and rewarding experience for both customer and supplier. Customers need appropriate and relevant information in order to make a positive buying decision. This then becomes a process of consultation between customer and supplier.
