Answer Upon - High Staff Productivity
Planning a fund raising event can be an overwhelming task to carry out, but if you have the will to do it, everything is possible. You also have to know that fund raising is a win-win situation, because people generally like to take part in any activities that involve helping worthy individuals or causes that will benefit from those efforts.You can name a lot of reasons to raise money and there are as many fund raising ideas available for you to choose from. But, selecting the best idea alone takes careful planning, which means half as daunting as planning a fund raising event can be. However, if you have to follow certain steps during the organization of this event, you might get away with it with a successful result.There are several steps that you can take in planning a fund raising ev

Create a business and build an environment that people love to work in. A business that attracts hard working – passionate employees.
It’s what I will teach you if you choose to join me on my 1-on-1 business coaching program.
All great business owners create a business that their employees can buy into with their heart…
When your employees are involved in your business from their heart, they take pride in what they do, who they are and pride in the business. They want to work, they want to produce and they want the owner and the business to achieve.
And you can do the same.
Because if your employees love what you stand for, If they love where you are going… and love the way they are treated… you won’t have to ‘look-over their shoulder’ you won’t have to keep your eye on them…
Because they’ll be doing w
The who, what, where, when, why, and howKnowing your competition allows you to identify a niche and develop your own unique selling proposition (USP). Clearly defining and understanding the core value you offer your clients can depend on your having a firm grasp of your competitors' strengths and weaknesses.Where do you start?1) Make a list of your competitors. Think big in this step. Don't just think about your direct competition; think about indirect competition in other industries as well. For example, as a copywriter I could list my competitors as fellow copywriters that do freelance work. But I don't want to stop there. Other potential competitors may include large ad agencies, small ad agencies (each may play a different role with clients), technical writers, a company's in-h
Because of this, I have found that business owners tend to think that money is the major motivator for employees too.
This may be true for some employees, yet it’s certainly not true for all employees.
I have found that most employees first and foremost want a place that appreciates them.
A place where they feel acknowledged and that they are making a contribution.
Money is about fourth on their list of priorities.
Yet if you fail on the first 3, that is, the employee doesn’t feel appreciated, doesn’t feel acknowledged and doesn’t feel like they are contributing… the money thing will rise ‘seemingly’ to the top.
And they’ll tell you that they NEED a pay rise to stay.
For a large part the reality is that what they are really saying is “to put up with all the garbage here at work – I need to get paid more”.
I have a lot of business owners that come to me and specifically ask me for ‘incentives’ that will help their staff become productive. Yet these business owners have a business that financially isn’t in a position to pay these ‘incentives’.
They think that ‘cash incentives’ will fire up their team, and get them productive. And in turn it will save the business.
Most of the time – this idea is off the mark.
If you need incentives to fire your staff up, you need to go back and fix the crux of the problem.
The reality is this…
I have seen many, many businesses where people come in and work their buts off for little or no money. – and love it.
In fact when a well known Motivational Speaker comes to town hundreds of people volunteer to work for free - like mad men for weeks and even months – and do you know what they love it.
You also see this with the volunteers that work at the Olympics.
They do it because they feel like they are a part of something ‘special’. And to employees that means a lot.
For us as business owners we have to be able to ‘think’ like employees.
Not everyone thinks like us. Not everyone thinks like a business owner.
Not everyone wants to start their business. Not everyone wants to earn a million dollars.
You know what, there are people out there that are quite happy to earn a wage and yet still give a million percent.
Not everyone is money driven.
And not everyone will put up with working a million hours to grow your business (like you do).
I’m a big on being fair with people. But like any relationship – there’s two sides. And both sides must contribute and perform for the relationship to work.
Firstly – you’ve got to employ ‘hard workers’ not people that are inclined to ‘bludge’.
People are either hard workers, or they are not.
It’s a skill that I teach my clients to pick in people when they hire. It’s simple to do.
I’m a BIG believer in getting hard working passionate people into your business – and then rewarding them.
Appreciate them, acknowledge them and make sure they are doing things in your business that allow them to feel like they are contributing in a positive way.
I disagree with getting people into your business that tend to ‘bludge’ and paying them to work harder.
And even worse, I don’t agree with offering incentives to already unproductive people.
It’s the wrong way around and you’ll find that they’ll start running your business… you’ll be looking for ways to make them work which will take time from you growing the business – or enjoying your lifestyle.
Now let’s talk about money driven employees…
If you have a staff member whose major motivation is money – they’ll probably be gone as soon as someone comes along with a better offer.

Companies have been branding their collateral materials such as letterhead, envelopes, business cards, etc. for years. In fact, we often identify a company by its familiar logo or special color scheme. Branding works!! At the same time, many companies send customers and vendors large files, proposals and presentations on CD-Rs. Since CD-Rs have become the “new and more efficient” way of exchanging important information, it would seem that more companies would find it valuable to brand their CD-Rs also.Most CD-Rs purchased by businesses come from retail office supply stores. These generic CDs usually have the logo of the retail store or disc manufacturer printed on the label. So why promote the store that sells the media? Companies are missing an excellent opportunity to brand themselves in

Here are the sobering facts: studies show that almost 70% of all employees dislike or downright hate their jobs. These dissatisfied, disillusioned people have no further career goals.

I was recently invited as a guest on a 4-day cruise boarding a ”True” Luxury Liner. Every room was a suite. I knew via their website we had a bathroom bigger than the one in my home, a sitting room, bedroom, mini-bar and balcony. I knew I needed a break and kept saying I did. It came just before I was due for foot surgery. In my heart I know when we continue to say what we want and believe, it comes to us bigger than what we expect.I had also wanted to fly home and see my mother who is in an assisted living home. I knew I wouldn’t be seeing her for some time due to my foot surgery coming up and really wanted to get home. So I asked. On our return flight we were able to stop to see my mom for a couple of days. The timing was amazing but I believed.The day after returning home I went

When your employees are involved in your business from their heart, they take pride in what they do, who they are and pride in the business. They want to work, they want to produce and they want the owner and the business to achieve.

Because if your employees love what you stand for, If they love where you are going… and love the way they are treated… you won’t have to ‘look-over their shoulder’ you won’t have to keep your eye on them…
Because they’ll be doing what they love.
And if they love what they are doing – they’ll do it to the best of their ability.
You’ll have to send them home, you’ll have to tell them to take holidays.
They’ll drum up business for you when they’re walking down the street or out on the week end… because they are passionate about your business.
And when it comes down to paying them, you can choose what you want to pay them – because you’ll be delighted with how they work, and their productivity.
So how to you pay these people?
There’s a number of smart ways that I take my clients through… which I can take you through on my 1-on-1 business coaching program…
In essence you reward them for their work, not pay them to work.
Let me explain.
After years of working with extraordinary business owners I have found this…
They normally start off their business with little or no money… They employ people on industry standard pays… then as the people produce and deliver – their pay packets increase.
By the time the business owner becomes very, very successful almost everyone in the business is on a great pay packet. Because everyone is productive.
If they aren’t productive, they aren’t employed.
So take these millionaire lessons on board with you.
Don’t bribe your people with money.
Create a business where passionate hard working employees want to work.
And they will work hard; they’ll be productive – because it’s their nature.
They’ll stay and continue to work for a business that they love to work for.
As a result your business will grow… and as your business grows you have the resources to reward them.
That’s the secret to having high staff productivity.
