Planning Your List of Wholesale Video Games Goals: January 2009 is History!

Our 2009 year had already started with significant changes and the month of January should be for you a; so long, good-bye and what is coming next!

Many of you have already written your new year resolutions and started achieving the goals required to meet your ultimate goals, which is also great and on the side for those fans of sports, Shane Mosley makes history again with an incredible boxing TKO upset.But the important edifying point to always ask at least at the end of the month is: what have you done this month?

Are you surprisingly shocked and in complete awe restating to yourself how fast the month already has passed?If you have honestly answered yes to such point, you did not accomplish many or all your goals that you initially proposed on a daily basis.You should be excited and not dissapointed on how fast January just passed.But great news being for you are that if you want to adjust and improve, there is surely room for another month with February already here probably by the time you get to read this.

A correct step to take is to re-evaluate your commitment to your goals, adjust in order to make your short term goals achievable, all in order to set yourself to maximum achievement in the month of February.We all have room for fast paced improvements.Whether we have our wholesale store on video games, electronics, hammocks, DVDs, musical instruments or whatever it is that you're currently offering.

If your beginning plan was unnefective on execution for the beginning month, adjust your plan and make sure you follow-thru in order to gain experience with the new adjustments and analyze your results.If you did achieved your month of January goals before deadline, congrats!Keep it up.This article will very likely so serve as a great reminder.

If in the other hand you had difficulties in the 31 days of our beginning month of January, delays or just could not finish: ask yourself the same questions you asked when the year 2008 ended.Hopefully there were questions similar to: what did I accomplish, what I did not, how can I improve my personal or business goals, what strategies am I going to execute in order to achieve both my short term and long term results and among the few to serve as reminder; what do I need to do in order to accomplish everything I set up.

If you are not serious about your goals, commitments and purposes - seek professional help.That can be define as getting a new mentor, getting a hand from a friend on personal goals or paying a modest fee for private training.While nothing beats the free hand from a personal friend, paid training could also be very effective if you understand what you want and the source has already been in your shoes.

No matter what your life ultimate achievement may be, your choices for change are available.How is February going to look for you, is looking for you right now?Set yourself for maximum achievement by starting one thing at a time, once you finish first step, keep following up with the second priority.I amm telling you, it works like a charm.Whether it would be on a wholesale mini-mall or anything else that you have set your mind into, get to work!

Five Key Principle Elements of the Phoenix Auction Business

The Reputation Institute conducts business reputation research, has identified five key principle elements of a business reputation.This article is designed to provide you with these elements and how they affect a Phoenix auction business.Specifics may vary from auction to auction; however, the following information includes helpful and important guidelines from which everyone can benefit.

Distinctiveness - Does your company stand out from your competitors?When people think of your company, do they have a clear image of your company or do they get you confused with other companies in your industry?

Focus - Is it clear to your customers what your company's goals and strengths are?Strong reputations are built when your company focuses its efforts around a central theme that it shares with its customers.

Consistency - Is your company consistent in its actions and communications?Does your company send mixed messages or have occasions where words do not match deeds?Reputation applies to every part of your company and therefore, everybody in your company has to assist in building that reputation.All employees need to understand the company's values and live them.It is not enough to teach individual behaviors but also teach the underlying values.

Identity - What is your company's emotional appeal to its customers?Identity is the positive or negative emotional appeal that your company has for its customers.It is the sum of their emotional experiences with your company.Do they have good memories, bad memories, or indifferent memories of your company?Do they remember your employees as helpful and friendly or cold and aloof?Do they trust your clerks and cashiers or do they double-check every lot and carefully count all change?

Transparency - Do your customers believe that, when it comes to your company, what they see is what they get?Or does your company openly share information and engage in dialogue with customers?Do customers take your company's actions at face value or are they always looking for ulterior motives?Does every customer experience the same company or does your company show a different face for each customer?

Not only is reputation of individual Phoenix auction businesses critical but also the reputation of the auction industry as a whole.Most auctioneers are very concerned with their business reputations because the auctioneer's name or their family's name is highly associated with their auction businesses.But the cumulative reputation of all auction companies is what creates the reputation of our industry.And in the same way that an individual company's reputation is hard to earn and easy to lose, so is the auction industry's reputation.

Why is the reputation of the auction industry as a whole so critical to the success of our industry?Unlike most industries, there are many alternatives to the services provided by auctioneers.There are many different ways to sell or purchase merchandise that don't involve hiring an auctioneer.You can hold a yard sale, consign it, open a retail storefront, have a going out of business sale, sell it outright or donate it to charity.If people are hesitant to use auctioneers or, worse, do not trust them, they will take their business elsewhere.

I think the reasons why the Phoenix auction industry and auctioneers should be highly concerned with their reputations were well summed up by Alan Greenspan during a commencement speech at Harvard University in June, 2000."In today's world, where ideas are increasingly displacing the physical in the production of economic value, competition for reputation becomes a significant driving force" manufactured goods often can be evaluated before the completion of a transaction.Service providers, on the other hand can only offer their reputations."

A Small Business Coach Will Help You Identify and Sort Your Top Priorities

Business owners typically have many goals for their business.They are likely to fall into long term, short term, intermediate term, and undefined term categories.They write them down in their notebooks and they look at them or not as time goes by.Some goals get met and others forgotten.Unfortunately the ones that get met are often those that are urgent - while those left behind are the ones that are really important to the success of the organization.

This is where small business coaches earn their money.Small business coaches are masters at asking questions - especially those that uncover the situation as it is today, what's important to the owners of the company, and what's possible to achieve given the desires and capabilities of all involved.They help their clients prioritize their planning so the important goals are considered first!.

Their objective, and that of the business owners, is to set priorities that will insure the accomplishment of shared goals.Shared goals for the future of the enterprise and for those involved.Small business coaches understand that the questions they ask and wait patiently for the answers to not only help in achieving consensus among the individuals concerned, they also help uncover differences in individual desires.

When asking these questions of the senior generation owners, their successors, key personnel, and heirs - they come away with the picture the decision makers and their professional advisors need in order to take the appropriate actions and take them in the order of their importance to their client.

Is it important to the owners to assure the continuation of the business in the next generation?How important is it, or is it important at all that there is a business opportunity here for the next generation?If there are successors or potential successors working in the business now is it important to you to reward their contribution in some way - beyond what they are getting paid for the job they are doing today?

The objective of these questions and all the follow up questions that inevitably result is to gauge how the business owners want to treat their next generation - whether family members or not.Most successful businesses have their resources tied up in the business - in the bricks, trucks, etc.and the financial security of the senior generation depends on the successful continuation of the organization.If the company's continuation is not important to the owners or the successors are not interested - other options will have to be considered.

Is it important to the present owners to maximize their income from the business now?Or if they are retired or about to retire is it important to make sure that their retirement income from the business is secure?What about the education costs of the owners or successors children and/or grandchildren - is that important?Can any numbers, their accountants and life insurance agents love numbers, be attached to any of these concerns and goals?

What's important when it comes to estate transfer costs and taxes?Small business coaches must ask these questions, whether or not they understand the implications of the answers they receive.Later when they discuss what they've learned with the advisors on behalf of the business owners - the answers will be important.

For example are documents in place to assure the orderly transfer of assets to the next generation?Does the business owner understand the terms and conditions?Have steps been taken to lower the combined estate settlement costs as much as possible?

Have they considered these potential costs and their possible impact on the business should death occur far into the future when the business is many times larger than it is today.Since it is the objective of the business to grow and since the successors are involved in that growth - has any thought been given to reducing, to the extent possible, the future growth of the business in the estate's of the senior generation owners?

Small business coaches are well positioned to ask these questions and all those that occur naturally - based on the answers given.

Business owners who have honestly articulated what's important, their business coach who has helped them through this often difficult and time consuming process, and their traditional advisors can work together to make sure that the concerns and goals of all those involved are prioritized and acted upon.
