The operation of any company will usually entail many decisions that will determine the success or failure of your business. Choosing how you set up your company’s communication system will no doubt be one of those crucial decisions you will have to make.

How your company communicates with its clients, employees, business partners, suppliers, shipping agents… are all vital to the running of an efficient business. Your communication system should be integrated, seamless and available everywhere.

Using an online registration system for your event can make life for event planners far easier by saving time and removing much of the manual labor of entering data, processing payments and writing reports. However, often online registration systems offer only some of these options and only some of the time. The key, then, is to choose an online event registration system that offers total, integrated automation.

One big question I hear over and over is ‘how on earth do I find time for marketing and selling?’ The challenge of running your own business is that typically you are not only the sales manager; you’re also the person delivering the service to your clients.

This is something I can strongly relate to, as I struggled with it myself when I first set up my corporate training business back in 1996.

What made the biggest difference for me was replacing one-to-one sales and marketing activities with one-to-many activities.

Imagine the following scenario. It’s Wednesday afternoon. You and a friend are having lunch at your favourite restaurant. After lunch you might go for a stroll, visit a local attraction, or just go home and read. It doesn’t matter which. Your phone and email are switched off, work is the farthest thing from your mind, and you’re committed to nothing more than simply relaxing. You return to the office the next morning, guilt-free and feeling rather energetic.

One of the most common goals my clients tell me about is that they want more time.

If you can relate, I have good news for you – if you put just one of these tips into practice, you will save hours every week:

1. Learn to say no
Saying no helps you set strong boundaries.

What do you have to say no to so that you can say yes to your goals this year?

2. Play to your strengths
With everything in life, I believe you should play to your strengths.

If you’re terrible at cleaning your house, hire a cleaning lady. If you’re not great at organising, hire a professional organiser.

“Out of clutter, find Simplicity.
From discord, find Harmony.
In the middle of difficulty lies Opportunity.”
– Albert Einstein

Many who come to me for help feel their lives (or some parts of them) are difficult, cluttered, and discordant. Worse, they feel guilty because they can’t “balance” all the parts of their lives.

Don’t feel bad. You can balance a clock, car wheels, and sometimes a seesaw, but it’s hard to balance a life. And if you could, would you really want to?

Therefore it is vital to ensure good quality recording of your audio material in the first instance.

Time Equals Cost

Transcription outsourcing agencies employ professionally qualified and highly trained transcriptionists - often with typing speeds over 70wpm and from varied professional backgrounds and industries such as academics, legal, research, commercial, medical and public sectors – the diversity of professionalism corresponds with the project material their clients outsource to them.

This week I got this message from Jane:

I’m a hypnotherapist and NLP practitioner; I spend more time trying to get clients than seeing clients. I know I waste time and resources but feel am I lost in this alien world! My clients now come from referral, leaflets and website but not nearly enough - I need to add 60% more clients.
