We all have to take our minds off the stresses of work so I hope this enlightens your day and or gives you something to discuss with others. There is something to the statement " Truth can be stranger than Fiction". Just take a look at the assortment of facts below. Animal Facts: There wasn't a single pony in the Pony Express, just horses. An elephant is the only mammal that can't jump and the penguin is the only bird who can swim, but not fly.
Math Facts: Did you know if you multiplied 111,111,111 by 111,111,111 the answer would be 12,345,678,987,654,321. For the first time in history, the number of people on the planet aged 60 or over will soon surpass those under 5.
Business facts: In 21 states, Wal-Mart is the single largest employer. Spam filters that catch the word "cialis" will not allow many work-related e-mails through because that word is embedded inside the word "specialist".
World Facts: Hawaii is moving toward Japan 4 inches every year. A Dutch court ruled that a bank robber could deduct the 2,000 Euros he paid for his pistol from the 6,600 Euros he has to return to the bank he robbed. One out of five people in the world (1.1 billion people) live on less than $1 per day.

Ten Lessons For Every Business Leader By Kent
J. Humphreys
As I was shaving this morning, the thought came to me. What are the ten foundational lessons that I have learned as a business owner? What ten things would I write in concrete for a young entrepreneur? So, over the last few weeks I have massaged this list several times and am now ready to share with you. I hope that you will consider these options and incorporate one of two of these ideas into your workplace. 1. Keep your spouse informed and include him or her in every major decision, especially the key personnel issues, including hiring. Make family time and vacation time a priority. Get alone regularly to think, have some weekends with your spouse, and enjoy time with your children before they grow up and afterward.
2. Gather an Inner Circle or "Counsel of Advisors" around you that have your best interests at heart, are not involved in your business, and will ask you the hard questions. Choose people who will be there for you in times of stress when you need wisdom and encouragement.
3. Treat your employees like family and be genuinely concerned for their welfare. Hire slowly and fire quickly. Remember that attitude is far more important than ability. Get the right people into the right spots. Find out what each person is passionate about and find the right fit for him or her in your company. The best way to attract the right people is to create a strong company culture. Relationships provide the true foundation for all of your success in the marketplace.
4. Get out of the office and visit your customers. Take advantage of conventions and trade shows. Listen to what your customers want and need. Solve their problems, and they will make you successful. Keep your promises to them whatever it costs.
5. Respect your vendors and develop true partnerships with them. Pay your bills on time and do not take advantage of them. They can become key allies with you in getting new customers.

6. Make timely and accurate accounting a priority. Understand your
margins, break even points, and fixed and variable expenses. Keep a close watch
daily or weekly on your cash flow. Become an expert on pricing. Build your
business on profits and prudent use of debt.
7. Put all agreements with your fellow shareholders and executives in
writing. On one page you should be able to clarify the key points of your
understanding. Clear understandings at the beginning will help you to avoid most
lawsuits. Settle all disagreements as quickly as you can without the time and
expense of going to court.
8. Make friends with your competitors and learn from them. You will be a
better business leader if you are watching and learning from them. They may
become useful acquisitions or alliance partners.
9. Be generous with your profits, particularly with your employees and your
community. Help your employees to save for the future and share in the rewards
of the company's success. Caring and generous leaders attract followers.
10. Value input from other leaders. Be involved in a regular small group of
business owners or executives from which you can learn much and be held
accountable. Practice the habit of continual learning and give your life to the
next generation of leaders.
Conclusion: Regardless of your service or product, these ten foundational
truths will help keep you on the right path as a leader. Without values and peer
relationships, you as a leader will not survive the challenges of the
marketplace. But, with a strong foundation and peers who care, you will be able
to withstand any attack upon you as a leader or upon your firm.

Is
Your Advertising an Investment Or Expense?
By Adam Khoo
Most people, even marketers, accountants and management view advertising as an expense. This is exactly what we have been taught in marketing, management and accounting courses. Many textbooks teach you that a company should budget approximately 10% of its sales for advertising and promotions. I personally think that this is very stupid advice. Pegging your advertising dollars to your previous months/year's sales revenue does not make any sense. This means that when your sales are dropping, you will be spending less on advertising, which will draw in less leads, giving you less customers and driving your sales down even further. Whenever my sales are low, I increase my visibility and draw in more people by advertising more heavily!
So, do marketing gurus view advertising and investment or expense?
The answer is...it DEPENDS.
When the advertisement you use does not work, it is an expense. For example, you place a $1,000 advertisement in the newspaper. This draws in 60 more people into your store, of which only 9 buy a garment each, spending an average of $80 on their purchase.
Since each garment costs you $30 to make, you merely make an additional gross profit of ($80-$30) x 9 garments = $450.
Spending that $1,000 on the advertisement gave your business a return of only $450. That's a loss of $550. In this case, advertising is an EXPENSE!
For most businesses I know, advertising is an expense simply because their ads don't work. What's worse is that most businesses don't even measure the effect of their advertising.
They have no clue as to how many extra customers their ad brought in or the additional gross profit made through the ad(s).
However, when a company uses effective ads and measures its results, advertising becomes an INVESTMENT. When you learn how to write powerful ads and place them in the right media, you will be able to generate much more leads for the same amount spent.
Assume that with the right strategies, your $1,000 ad is now able to pull in 240 people into your store (four times the previous ad). Out of the 240, 36 customers buy an average of $80/- each.
This time, the additional gross profit generated from the ad is ($80-$30) x 36 = $1,800. Spending $1,000 on the ad has brought you extra profits of $800. This is an 80% return on investment (ROI). Advertising is clearly an investment this time.
So, let me ask you this. If investing $1,000 returns you $1,800 each time, how many $1,000 will you put in? Put it another way, if you get $1.80 for every $1 you invest, how many $1 would you invest? You would put in as many '$1' investments as you can!

Common Technical Questions
Why do your Adlandpro statistics have more hits for my
websites, than my website manager statistics , which I have
have always assumed to be 100% accurate?
Here are some
most obvious reasons:
-
Somebody
clicked on our site but your server was down or busy
and they didn't wait any longer.
-
Somebody was
able to connect to our site but due to connection
problems on the way between you and them, click on
your link on our site resulted in unresolved domain
or DNS error. Your site didn't load.
-
User clicked
several times impatiently on our site on your link
(each click is a hit recorded) but there was only
one visit to your site.
-
Search engine
or other spidering software crawled our site,
encountered your ad but your stats didn't show it
because stats only look for human clicks.
Remember that all website stat trackers are built
differently and may not have the same capabilities to
measure exactly the same. You can usually determine this
by looking at trends up or down as both will show
similar trends over a short period of time.

regarding email
notifications or if we can help in anyway please
