Why Businesses Fail

I did some research at the SBA, other government agency websites, CNN Money, and others, to discover the top reasons businesses fail. And I have listed a few reasons below:

 

  1. Owners start their business for the wrong reasons
  2. Poor execution and internal controls
  3. Insufficient capital
  4. Bad location
  5. Lack of planning
  6. Overexpansion
  7. No website

 And then I thought about what it is that Ten Talents does for our business owners and I determined that we can help you directly with at least 4 of the seven items listed, and give you sound advice on the others. A CPA is a trusted business advisor that assists and advises its clients on their accounting records and internal controls, obtaining capital, business planning, and so much more. Helping you achieve slow steady growth that will last a lifetime. Not to mention, making sure your business taxes are filed correctly and in a timely manner. If you are not currently taking advantage of the services of a CPA give us a call at 708-720-2860.

What Makes Your Crochet So Special?

What Makes Your Crochet So Special?

© ThisIsCrochet.comLet's face it. There are a lot of crochet patterns out there and a lot of them look basically the same. Different sizes, different colors, slight variations in stitch patterns, sleeves, neck openings, collars. This is not a bad thing, though. There are lots of basic crochet designs that are absolutely great to make over and over again.

As a crochet designer, I want to be unique so that my crochet designs appear fresh and new to yarn companies, publishers, editors and my customers. I know sometimes it can be hard to decide how to make something that is different from the rest. This is why I always say it is important to find your Crochet Voice. Your Crochet Voice is how your yarn and your hook speak to express your creativity through crochet.

Do you know what you would like to say with yarn? There are times for me when a direction is not clear, and I cannot hear my Crochet Voice. When I am stuck I use these exercises.

Design for Yourself

This is what I like to do personally. I tend to make things that I would wear or that I want to use. One downside of this is that sometimes your vision is not going to match with what publishers want so you may have to deal with rejection, or you may not have as favorable a response from your customers. Just know that every design isn't going to be a hit, and you have to keep on designing. You can always use those designs as learning experiences and maybe take the good parts and turn them into new designs.

Look at Your Wardrobe/Home Décor

Which colors are you drawn to? Which pieces are your favorites? What style of furniture decorates your home? What types of shapes do you wear -- loose and flowing, architectural/structured garments, casual, elaborately embellished, etc.? Do you like natural fibers, or do you go for the shine and bling?

Your Other Secret Persona

What about her? You know, that other part of yourself who you may not get to show on a regular basis. That one who you would love to be on a regular basis if you suddenly hit the big lottery? Why not design for that person? Indulge your fantasies and create some of the wonderful things that you know that secret side would love.

These are a few exercises to try the next time a creative rut hits. I find them helpful in other areas such as when I work as a web designer in addition to helping me express my Crochet Voice as a crochet designer.

New Social Media Site that Pays You to Refer

I've been social networking now for a few years and consider myself pretty "hard core." I check FB daily as well as share pics and/or videos, and on a regular basis I add  comments to the crazy things that my friends post. Some are true classics! In recent days, I've become more and more concerned about what I read about social networking sites selling the information that they compile about me as I use their site. Evidently, the 500,000,000 of us sharing our likes/dislikes, talking about where we go and what we do-is really big business-and by that I mean-big MONEY business. SNS sell our personal information as well as our content to third parties-who are clamoring to find potential sales. I mean I know they have to make money, but at what price to us-the users. And it seems so easy for private information shared on these sites to become available to everyone. Have you ever Googled your name or searched Google Images?  You read terrible stories about things that happen as a result of private information made public from these sites. A friend mentioned to me that she was using crazygood.com - a subscription-based social networking site that doesn't sell users' info or even allow ads. I still FB often but use it more as a search for friends now, and to make business connections because it's so massive. For sharing info, photos, etc., I'll be usingCrazygood. It just makes me feel more protected, and I'm back in control of my own information. If you're concerned about your cyber safety and want to be SURE your private information remains just that-PRIVATE. In addition, Crazygood allows you to earn some extra money just by referring your friends. When's the last time FB paid you for anything? I'm not downing Facebook...  I can't even say I have a REAL problem with the third party ads. I only question some of their ethics in regards to using our information, and believe that if my life, my pictures, and , my stories are going to be sold, then I should get something in return. If they do go public, shouldn't we all get a share... or maybe even half a share... a quarter... SOMETHING????  *sigh* I digress...  

We all know that social media is here to stay. If nothing else Crazygood is just another place for you to post content and connect with others. Check it out

 

Wishing you growth and prosperity!

Suze Orman is one of my favorite financial gurus.  One thing, she has always stressed is that health and wealth go hand in hand.  Often, when people are financially unhealthy, they are usually physically unhealthy.  Taking of yourself and reaching your weight loss goals, increases your confidence and productivity. When you feel good about yourself, your outlook on life is better.  Losing weight can be one of the biggest challenges anyone faces.  I have successfully lost 80 pounds and I am seeking to help and motivate others.  I invite you to check out my blog Healthy Girl Now- http://bit.ly/gszQEw
