Looking for a few business ideas? Consider the following:
Consider offering a special price or service to members of business groups you belong to. If you can get members to use what you offer, they’ll be more likely to refer your service or products to others.
Learn to be decisive. It’s important that you make decisions quickly and assertively. Don’t waffle.
Make expectations clear. Don’t assume employees will do things they way you would like unless you’re specific. Don’t say: “I need this as soon as possible.” Do say, “I need this by 3p.m. today.”
Offer disposable cameras to employees and ask them to photograph special events, projects or anything they consider might be of interest to your business.
Every business is on the look out for employees with people skills. If you have to choose the right person from a list of applicants, the idea is to attend a group meeting and serve snacks and beverages.
Consider those who walk up to others and introduce themselves as your best prospects for a formal interview.
