The 7 Essential Lists Successful Businesses Must Have
By Loretta Love Huff
Running a successful business requires more than a good idea. It requires structure and processes to keep things and money flowing.
1. Long-term goals list
If you've been following me for any time, you'll undoubtedly heard me talk about the importance of goals. Goals that stretch beyond today or this week, will help you prioritize your time in the most productive manner possible. They will motivate you and your staff. They will keep on focused on what's truly important.
2. Daily to-do action items list
Just as important as knowing where you're going long term, is knowing (and doing) what's most important RIGHT NOW. Sometimes unforeseen emergencies have to be dealt with. But more importantly, you need to decide each day what the most productive use of your time will be.
I always have a to-do list and never get through everything on the list on any given day. I do always decide what the priorities are for the day and then get to work on them. Last week, I lost my list and I was lost without it! Thank God I found it a couple of days later. I remembered some of the critical items, but had forgotten one that needed to be addressed.
3. Prospect list
This is one of the biggest mistakes business owners make. If you don't have a list of potential prospects, you're definitely leaving money on the table. If you're a retail establishment, people make a purchase the very first time they discover you. However, if you don't and you haven't captured their contact info, you may never hear from them again.
You'll increase your chances of doing business with them if you're able to proactively reach out and remind them that you exist. So if you aren't already capturing either a physical address or email address from your store or website visitors, start that now! You'll probably need to give them some sort of incentive (not just an offer for your newsletter) in order for them to part with their contact info. But capturing that valuable data must be your goal.
4. Customer list
Just as important as a prospect list is a list of your customers. These are people who have demonstrated interest in your product or service by making a purchase. It takes more time and energy to make a sale to a stranger or prospect than to someone who has already bought from you and been satisfied. Treat these people well, but don't neglect offering them the next thing you offer that can help solve their problems.
5. Process list
Every business needs a set of processes that help the business run efficiently. You probably have them even if they aren't documented. You need to document them.
Start by making a list of all of the "Here's how we do things around here" topics in a variety of areas such as answering the phone, identifying prospects, converting prospects to clients, taking on a new client, invoicing clients, processing payments, asking for a referral, publishing our newsletter, paying the bills, making minor changes to your website, etc. Then write out the steps involved in each process.
This compilation will be an invaluable tool in defining roles and responsibilities, delegating tasks and training new employees.

6. Resource list
This list includes the tools and systems you use to run your business and make your life easier. It's slightly different than the Process List which may reference certain resources: things like your accounting system, your website host, tools on your blog, new tools you plan to invest in, an employment agency or temp service, online portals for which you have memberships or accounts.
Having a list in a binder along with a brief description and access (login) or contact info will save you countless hours of trying find the information when you desperately need it.
7. Diversions list
After all of this work, you must take time to relax and enjoy life. It's challenging for some business owners to 'work in' time for play, but this list is essential as well.
Your list should include things you enjoy doing, that bring you peace of mind, that obliterate your stress. Possible candidates are listening to a certain kind of music, playing music, painting, playing with your pets, children, spouse and friends.
Make sure you know which kind of 'play' you thirst for. Is it board games, exercise, meditation, video games, outdoor sports, movies, ballet, opera, cards, TV, dancing, vacations, weekend getaways?
Whatever 'floats you boat', schedule it. That may sound weird but if these activities aren't on your calendar or at least on a list you review regularly, they will get trumped by those emergencies and daily tasks.
Creating and using these lists will improve your productivity, keep your business soaring and maintain your sanity.

Internet Marketing For Small Business Does Work By Angelene O'Reilly
While large corporations are using the internet for marketing the ROI for small businesses is much higher.
Most small businesses are known because of their great customer care, products and services by getting your business name and reputation on the internet you get to interact with your customers once they have already left your store. Hence building a good reputation that your current clients can share with their friends online.
There is so much information about this topic all over the internet and the information overload sure can be scary. Making a choice on what will work for your business is easier then you realize.
Don't let that hold you back, find a few ideas and apply them. One best piece of advice I can give you is communicating online is no different to offline. Your customers come back to you because of your customer service. Harness the communication skills you have as a business owner and apply them online.
Internet marketing for small business is incorporating different areas of the internet into your marketing funnel. Unlike most advertising the internet is more for sharing your expertise and building trust with your clients. The businesses that do the best on the internet are the ones solving problems for others.
I have a website is that internet marketing for small business?
Having a website is a part of internet marketing, a website alone is not enough to get you seen. To use internet marketing for small business effectively you need to harness the social media sites as well. The main 4 I think all small businesses should focus on are Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and LinkedIn.
Your website is like the backbone of your business when it comes to internet marketing, by creating a funnel so that everything leads back to your website is a good way to get the most out of the internet for small businesses.
Consistency is the key to succeed at internet marketing for small business.
Keeping your online profiles up to date and sharing content regularly is what will give you the best results. The more consistent you are the more your customers will see you as the reliable source to ask questions and get answers. Make it easy for people to share your content by having links to social media sites on your website.
If you wanting some help with your internet marketing feel free to contact me as I would happy to assist you by giving you a free consultant.
Wishing you much success embracing internet for your business.

Common Technical Questions
I ran out of Traffic Exchange
credits and now it shows me as having negative credits,
am I obligated to pay for those credits used?
No. Our system for both the Traffic Exchange and the
Impressions (Banner/Text) display will always overrun
and produce a negative credit balance. The reason is
that when the system is aware that you account is
getting low on credits or you are at a level where it
will get ready to stop, but it cannot account for the
views that are in the queue as traffic to our site
fluctuates on a daily basis.
So
your Ad/Banner may be set up to run in the next few
minutes and because we are dealing with 1000s of
displays per hour the database cannot account for the
credits that will be displayed in queue and will run
regardless of the credit balance. Therefore the TE and
Impressions will always run into the negative which
works to the member's advantage as the member is not
accountable for overdrawn credits.
If you have any questions
regarding email
notifications or if we can help in anyway please
