Entrepreneur, Goal Setting!

Home based business, online business, MLM or if you are in direct sales, you have to be goal oriented to be successful. If you are new or experienced, without a goal the chances are you will be part of the 97% of entrepreneurs that will fail this year. Knowing how to set up your goals, how to break them down will play a major part of all entrepreneur success.

If you are new, you goal may be to quit your job or make enough money so your spouse can stay home. If you are experienced, you goal might be to win a major competition within your organization. Either way, the 1st step is to establish your main goal. The reason is we will work from the top to the bottom to establish a plan of action to achieve your goals.

For the sake of this article, we will use the new entrepreneur as an example. So lets you make $4,000 a month at your current job. To replace your income, you will need to make around $3,500 monthly with your online business. So write $3,500 at the top of a board or a blank piece of paper.

Next we need to figure out how many sales you need to make to create a $3,500 income. So lets say the average sale with your business is $100 and your commission for each sale is $50. So to make $3,500, you need make 70 sales each month which would equal $7,000 in sales and $3,500 in income. Write on your board 70 sales below your main goal.

After that we need to establish how many leads every month you will need to make 70 sales. You find out that your business model average is that you make a sale for every 10 leads (this is just an example) so you will need 700 leads to make $7,000 in sales. Write on your board 700 leads monthly below your monthly sales.

The last step is to breakdown the number of monthly leads into a daily number of leads. So if you need 700 leads every month, than you need 23.3 leads per day. Write 23.3 leads on your board below your monthly leads.

Work with the daily number, celebrate every time you achieve you daily goal with a small reward. If you meet your daily goal, you will meet your monthly goal and first thing you will know is that you will hand your letter of resignation to your boss with a big smile on your face. One last advice, keep your goals very visible to you at all time. Make sure you can see them every day and dont make too much fun of your boss when you quit.

To your success,Ghyslain

Bank of America Loan Modification — A Simple Five Steps to Approval!

Have you been worried or even just concerned about meeting a high monthly mortgage payment? Perhaps you have been pondering negotiating for a better deal, such as a Bank of America loan modification period. This nationwide lending bank is now offering loan workarounds to some of its borrowers. You can improve your chances of getting the loan modification deal. If you meet certain approval requirements, you can lower your mortgage payment. Before you apply, you need to know about these Five Steps to Approval.

1.Study the Bank of America loan modification approval guidelines. To qualify for a loan workaround program, you must meet specific disposable income and debt to income ratios.

2.Collect all necessary documentation for the bank. A bank officer will review your documents to decide whether you qualify for a Bank of America loan modification. Be sure that you have everything before you apply, in order to avoid any possibility of delay or even denial of your application.

3.A Hardship Letter is an essential part of your document package. You must present convincing, compelling evidence that you have experienced or will suffer from a financial hardship due to your current mortgage payment. There are three essential elements in a Hardship Letter — be sure that you know what they are.

4.Take time to prepare, accurately and properly, the Bank of America loan modification application forms. Everything you state is subject to verification, and so you must include all important information, truthfully, to ensure that your loan workaround is given the maximum possible consideration for approval.

5.Be persistent. Eight weeks is not uncommon for processing time of your Bank of America loan modification application. So be patient as well! Even if you are declined the first time, do not give up. Many homeowners were able to get an initial rejection of their application overturned by being diligent, tenacious, focused, and persistent in their pursuit of an affordable mortgage. Your home is at stake, and a successful application allows you to keep your home.

By studying the guidelines; being diligent, complete and truthful in your application; and persisting in your qualification process, a Bank of America loan modification may well be yours. Take the time and invest the energy in doing the application properly, by understanding the bank’s approval guidelines. Ask any necessary questions for proper completion of the paperwork. Get the help you need and keep your home, as homeowners across the country continue to do. You too can do it!

Icici Bank Sells Terminals Of Card Payment

ICICI Bank has concluded the sale of its network of electronic point of sales (PoS) terminals that accept Credit Card and Debit Card payments to First Data Corporation (FDC). The bank has hived off its network of over 1.5 lakh electronic swipe machines to a separate company ICICI Merchant Services. First Data has bought an 81% stake in the company which has been valued at a little over $90 million.

When contacted, ICICI Bank refused to comment on the transaction. The bank has, however, communicated to merchants having ICICI Bank terminals that the PoS network has been transferred to ICICI Merchant Services. First Data, along with partner banks, is keen to proliferate payment transactions not just at top retailers but also through small cities or towns in India, said Amrish Rau, country manager, First Data Corporation.

Referring to the transaction with ICICI Bank, Mr Rau said an announcement would be made in due course. Mr Rau, who represents First Data in the country, is likely to head the new payments company. First Data is a US-based company that has been created after banks farmed out their back office processing systems into a separate company. FDC is presently owned by private equity giant KKR.

The Reserve Bank of India has already given clearance for the deal. According to banking sources, the deal value has gone up after RBI said that merchant establishments, including grocery stores and supermarkets, could swipe customer cards and offer them cash.

In addition to unlocking value, ICICI Bank expects that the specialised company will bring down transactions costs and also grow the payment network more efficiently. This is the first time that an Indian bank has hived off its PoS terminal network.

So far it has been foreign banks that have outsourced these functions but their network is of much smaller scale.

ICICI Merchant Services will earn a fee every time a credit cards or debit cards transaction is processed through the point of sale network. The fee is usually borne by the merchant and a large part of it goes to the card issuing bank. This is in lieu of the credit that the issuing bank extends to the cardholder until the end of the billing cycle. A smaller part of the commission goes to the bank owning the PoS terminal (acquiring bank) and smaller portion to the payment company Mastercard or Visa.

Incidentally, State Bank of India has for some time expressed its intention to set up a network of half a million point of sales terminals. To build this network the bank had earlier sought partners. However, the project was shelved as the bank decided to take a more holistic approach of its payments business.

Financial Prosperity God’s Way

Financial Prosperity

Like so many people on the internet I have tried a number of ways of making “big” money on the web and yes, I have made at least one bad investment. There is more than one money making formula out there. Some formulas are good and some not so good. God knows more than a little about financial prosperity and He desires the Christian to prosper. However, God wants the Christian to prosper His way.

Formula to a Relationship

God desires that instead of looking to a formula, the Christian should look to Him and not to a formula. God wants you to shift your allegiance from a money making formula to a deep relationship with Him and then you will prosper the best way. Are you seeking to know God intimately and have a deep relationship with Him? He says in Matthew 6:33, “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”

The Financial Prosperity Revelation

God gave me a revelation of Matthew 6:33 and showed me if I would seek Him and put His agenda first place in my life then my prosperity would be manifested. Seeking God is the best investment in your destiny.

In Hebrews 11:6b He states, “He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”

“Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart” (Psalm 37:4 KJV).

Serve God or Money?

Remember what is stated in Matthew 6:24 of the Living Bible, “You cannot serve two masters: God and money. For you will hate one and love the other, or else the other way around.”

Seek and love God with all your heart and get involved with His program. Good investment. He has just the formula for your success: a deep relationship with Him which will unfold the glorious destiny He has for your life. And that destiny does include prosperity.

But what if you refuse to do the will of God? Here is your answer: “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven” (Matthew 7:21 KJV).

Child Support Modification – Support Relief For Fathers

Child support modification is used to legally reduce the amount of child support paid each month. Many non-custodial Dads are under the impression that once child support has been ordered they are stuck with that specific Court ordered amount. Not true!

There are many reasons that reducing child support may be necessary, especially in today’s recession economy. Many Dads are losing their jobs, having their hours reduced, or having their pay reduced. Any of these instances may be cause for modification of child support.

There are special forms, along with instructions, for this procedure provided in DadsCanWin! The Department of Child Support Enforcement has the ability to reduce support payments without a court procedure but may not be willing to do so. Don’t despair, the law is on your side!

You may feel guilty about needing to reduce your child support payments. You may think it will lower your child’s standard of living and they will dislike you because of it. Well, you need to do a reality check. If you lose your job, or for any other reason can’t make your child support payments, you face jail time! Child Support Enforcement can suspend your driver’s license, recreational licenses, and other licenses you may need to work.

Sitting In Jail Because You Are Behind on Child Support
Payments Does Not Help Your Children

Getting a new job will be difficult if you have no driver’s license and without a new job you will not be able to pay your child support. You can see that this is a downward spiral to nowhere. Just think how your child will feel if you are not there to visit them because you are in jail! Not the picture you want them to have of their Dad.

So, the alternative of seeking child support modification seems like the intelligent thing to do. If you truly feel terrible, once you get your job back, or otherwise correct your income, problem you can then start paying more child support again. However, you have protected yourself when your income was reduced.

Each state has guidelines for the amount of child support based on, typically, the non-custodial parents income, and the custodial parent’s income. Many Dads are not aware that if their ex’s income changes substantially for the better, they may be able to reduce the amount of child support that is due. Be sure to check out your states guidelines when preparing your Child Support Modification forms.

This procedure can be done without an attorney thereby saving you typically thousands of dollars. In addition, most attorneys are reluctant to represent non-custodial Fathers in child support issues. But, you can do this yourself and DadsCanWin can show you the way.

Remember, the most important thing, if your income has changed, is to take action before you get behind. Losing your driver’s license and facing jail is no picnic. The law is on your side if you take action!

Health Care For Canadian Entrepreneurs The Most Sensible Option Is A Best Kept Secret

The Shocking Truth is that you will only realize 70% of the value of a traditional health plan.

The reality is that for the small businesses (especially the sole owner type), monthly health benefit plans are designed to yield around 30% in profit for the Providers when it comes to routine health care expenses. On average, for a small business, you will only get out 70% of the premiums you put in – the traditional monthly plans are designed that way. And, if you claim more in one year, your premiums or limitations will normally increase to maintain that 70/30 ratio.

A Health Spending Account is a great alternative for entrepreneurs.

In contrast, a Health Spending Account (HSA) is far more cost effective for these routine health care expenses, without the artificial percentage and coverage limitations imposed by the insurance carriers. For example, most monthly health plans cover 80% for routine cleaning, up to a fixed annual limit per person. HSA’s have no percentage limits imposed – 100% is covered.

Monthly health plans typically cover only certain services. Few monthly plans cover things like glasses, massage therapy, orthotics, contacts, laser eye surgery, etc. A Health Spending Account allow entrepreneurs’ and their dependents to gain access to a full spectrum of health care services.

The final good news is that Revenue Canada (CRA) allows incorporated Canadian businesses to write-off 100% of the costs of a Health Spending Account, and all claim reimbursements to employees (and dependents) are completely tax-free.

Is it any wonder that today the majority of small Canadian incorporated businesses are now looking at a Health Spending Account, as either their primary, or secondary form of health coverage.

The bottom-line is that it is more economical to cover the routine costs, and the broader range of health care services through a Health Spending Account. In these situations, the monthly benefits plans are more restrictive, more costly and far less flexible.

Hedge Funds – How To Make The Right Investment Choices

After the 2008 world economic crisis, finding the right investment vehicles seems much harder and trickier. Worldwide currency, which everyone believed in, has shown its face value and, overall people have lost their confidence in the popular investment means available on the global market. However, one of the post crisis positive effects is that individuals became more aware and cautious about the significance of managing their resources appropriately and securing their assets.

Although the present day market openings sets forth an apparently endless variety of choices, making the right investment is all about selecting that alternative apposite for your means, objectives and goals on short, medium and long term.

In nowadays context, the hedge fund is fairly set at the higher end of the investment opportunities scale. Working as a private pool of capital, little known to the wide public, such funds rather address the sophisticated investor that can afford hefty net investments in the prospect of likewise gains. Unlike most types of funds, a hedge fund gathers capital from a fairly limited number of individuals and, naturally the investment amounts are significantly greater, being typically believed to range between one million and six million dollars. Nevertheless, there is no investment maximal threshold regulation in place.

The hedge fund is actively run by a manager, who is in charge with all financial strategies and decisions. Once in, the investors can not set a veto on his decisions.

Although, one needs to be no expert to know that investing in gold – the ultimate safe heaven of all seasons- is the right investment choice for all kinds of financial portfolios, the profits of a hedge fund may considerably overrun those achievable from independent investments.

What To Look For In The Best Franchise Opportunities

There are many factors in determining what the best franchise opportunities are today. It would be easy to say it depends on the potential franchise owner and you’d be right. However, from a business perspective, it’s crucial to look at all the positives and negatives of typical franchises to see which ones have more positive attributes than negative attributes.

First let’s look at the positives in franchise opportunities. Franchises are successful because they have proven systems that work therefore business owners don’t have to go and ‘reinvent the wheel’. The best franchise opportunities usually have very strong name brands that are well established along with a streamlined training system that when followed will usually produce success. More positives include having pre-established relationships with vendors and suppliers, clear cut marketing initiatives and somewhat of a quick time to get up and running.

On the other side, owning a franchise has a few limitations. For the most part, you are NOT allowed to modify your pricing, promotions, advertising, processes, etc. You are somewhat limited in your creativity which can be a good thing or a bad thing. You will most likely have territory restrictions, royalties that you have to pay on gross sales, you have to contribute to an advertising campaign and sometimes you have to open your store where the company says.

Furthermore, to become a franchise owner you usually have to have good credit, a considerable net worth and you must receive approval from the company to own a franchise. That kind of sucks because someone has to ‘approve’ you to be an entrepreneur. Finally, most franchise will NOT make you wealthy by only owning 1 franchise. It usually requires owning multiple franchise because they just aren’t scalable.

The best franchise opportunities today are really defined by 2 main factors. The first one is choosing a franchise that is in 100% alignment with your values and something that you’re really passionate about. No matter how many ‘positives’ or ‘negatives’ your franchise might have, if you’re not 100% passionate about the business, industry, products or services, you’re not going to be very successful because you’re just not that into it.

The second main factor involves having a lot more positives in the franchise model meaning that some of the traditional business bad things don’t exist. In today’s economy, online franchises really have a lot of benefits and positives without the traditional headaches or traditional pitfalls of owning a franchise.

When determining the best franchise opportunities for you and your family, always do your due diligence, never leave any stone unturned and make the best decision based on what’s aligned with your goals and values and what you’re 100% passionate about.
