Five Apps for entrepreneurs

 With so many apps available and created every day, how do you know which ones are the best for your purposes?
We asked five entrepreneurs to tell us which apps they can’t live without and why.
There are some that were common – nearly everyone listed Dropbox – and others a little more for the times when they aren’t working.
Are there any other apps you can’t live without?

Mark McDonald – co-founder and managing director of app developer Appster

EverNote – The perfect app for capturing ideas and concepts between meetings and while travelling. I love that it syncs up to my Macbook Pro as well, so wherever I am I can find important ideas.
ZombieRun – Staying fit sucks. But when you are running from zombies it's more fun, I really love how this app gamified the process of jogging.
Things 2 – I'm a workaholic but also have the attention span of a small child, that's why using Things 2 as a way to manage my daily activities, projects and responsibilities in a really simple interface has doubled my productivity.

Mechanic awarded $1.4 million

A Canberra engine repair business has been ordered by the court to pay an injured mechanic $1,399,341 in damages, because it didn’t provide a safe system of work for lifting heavy items.
Stephen Roberts suffered an injury to his back while he was employed as a mechanic by DRB Equipment Repairs.
He was helping two men to manually lift a 105-kilogram pressure cleaner into the side door of a delivery van outside the DRB workshop when the load became snagged on a step inside the vehicle, causing it to roll, on its wheels, backwards towards him.
Roberts took the weight of the load which triggered pain in the lower left hand side of his back and a ‘burning sensation’. He went home and was referred for physiotherapy.

Reasons Why You’re Not Rich

Reasons Why You’re Not Rich
Many people assume they aren’t rich because they don’t earn enough money. If I only earned a little more, I could save and invest better, they say.
The problem with that theory is they were probably making exactly the same argument before their last several raises. Becoming a millionaire has less to do wi

th how much you make, it’s how you treat money in your daily life.
The list of reasons you may not be rich doesn’t end at 10. Caring what your neighbours think, not being patient, having bad habits, not having goals, not being prepared, trying to make a quick buck, relying on others to handle your money, investing in things you don’t understand, being financially afraid and ignoring your finances.

Six ways to Start a Home Business

 How to Start a Home Business

How do you start a successful home-based business? What needs to be in your consideration?

Below is a 6-step guide:

Introduction:

A creative person could build a business from scratch, purchase an existing business, start a franchise store  or become a distributors for one of the major brands. Whichever  the case may be. I'm about to show you necessary steps on how to figure it out. Below is a 6-step guide.

1.   Assess your skills and knowledge

You need to know what you are good at and what you are not so good at. Identify your strong points and your weaknesses. This can help you gauge if you are suitable for embark on a home business. As a home business owner, you will need to run a lot of tasks on your own, from planning, business management to the field work. Make sure you can carry out the tasks needed.

2.Generate business ideas

Start brainstorming from your interest and passion. Get your family to involve as you will be using part of their space for your business.

3.Access your Personality. Are you a peoples person, do you like to work alone? Do you love working for others, or what age group do you enjoying serving. You can build business around that.

4.Test the market

Shortlist your ideas so that it contains only those ideas that can work for a home business. Be practical. Think whether people will want to spend money on the kind of products or services that you can offer, how much and whether this will generate sufficient income proportional to your effort.  If no, get back to Step 2 for more ideas. Being persistent is important at this stage because many people gave up after facing the obstacles.

Bringing business back to the UK

  
We have set out a long-term economic plan to secure our country’s economic future and our economy is growing. Just this week, the IMF upgraded its growth forecasts for Britain by more than any other G7 country and we have also seen the largest quarterly increase in employment since records began.

The key challenge for politicians and business leaders in Europe is how we make a success of globalisation. For years the West has been written off. People say that we are facing some sort of inevitable decline. They say we can’t make anything anymore.

I don’t believe it has to be this way.

Of course, we cannot be starry eyed about globalisation – it presents huge challenges as our economies and societies try to adapt. But neither should we take this pessimistic view.

Indeed if we make the right decisions, we may also see more of what has been a small but discernible trend where some jobs that were once offshored are coming back from East to West.

In recent years there has been a practice of offshoring where companies move production facilities to low cost countries. But there is now an opportunity for some of those jobs to come back.

Raising your Self-Esteem

1. Raise the self-esteem of others. Be supportive, give them the benefit of the doubt; never ridicule or belittle anyone. 2. Push outside your comfort zone. Help others even when you feel like quitting.Listen patiently to things that are important to someone else, whether or not they’re important to you. 3. Don’t like the decision? Do your best to make it work. Try others’ ideas when you disagree with them, just as you would want them to try yours. 4. Ask for help. Don’t be a victim and expect people to feel sorry for you. And learn to ask instead of demand. 5. Promptly, sincerely thank someone who has helped you. It’s only common - See more at: http://silverbirdtv.com/blog#sthash.hqKt5l9H.dpuf

10 Ways To Multiply Your Sales

 

1. When you make your first sale, follow-up with the
customer. You could follow-up with a "thank you"
email and include an advertisement for other products

2. You could upsell to your customers. When they're
at your order page, tell them about a few extra related
products you have for sale. They could just add it to
their original order.

 

3. Tell your customers if they refer four customers to
your web site, they will receive a full rebate of their
purchase price. This will turn one sale into three sales.

4. When you sell a product, give your customers the
option of joining an affiliate program so they can make
commissions selling your product. This will multiply
the sale you just made.

Chinese government launches state-approved smartphone operating system

The Chinese government has announced the launch of a smartphone operating system, which is set to go head-to-head against Apple iOS and Google Android, according to official state media reports.
State-owned newspaper The Global Times describes the China Operating System (COS) as a “strategic product for national security, which has become more urgent in the wake of recent incidents such as the US intelligence scandal of Prism and Windows ending further support of its XP system”.

Google strikes against 350 million malicious and counterfeit ads

 Search giant Google pulled more than 350 million suspicious advertisements off its site in 2013 – around a million a day – according to a new infographic it has released.
This was up 59% on the previous year’s figure of 220 million.
Ads pegged for removal included those spruiking counterfeit goods, malicious activity and others that appeared to spread viruses.
The infographic shows Google disapproved three million applications to join its network, and it banned more than 270,000 advertisers from using the network.
Around 14,000 advertisers were barred for trying to sell counterfeit goods, and two million ads were disabled for trying to sell counterfeit pharmaceuticals.
Googledisabled about 400,000 sites that hid malware, and another 10,000 for promoting get-rich-quick schemes.

the secret is out" over her condition.

Williams admitted that a bad back sustained during practice hampered her movement, but refused to blame the injury for her stunning exit that blew the Australian Open wide open.

Raging favourite to clinch her 18th Grand Slam title and sixth at Melbourne Park, the world number one was overhauled 4-6 6-3 6-3 in front of an astonished Rod Laver Arena crowd as the resurgent Ivanovic soared to her finest victory in years.
Williams crashed out in a hail of 31 unforced errors and managed only three winners in the third set as the anticipated fightback the American has counted on throughout her career failed to materialise.
Her coach Patrick Mouratoglou, who talked up a serious tilt at a calendar Grand Slam before the tournament, said Williams had "blocked" her back during practice before her third round match against Daniela Hantuchova.




She made some good shots, and I just made way, way, a lot of unforced errors."
Williams had never lost a set to Ivanovic, let alone a match, before Sunday and since last year's Australian Open was riding a 77-3 winning record.
Pundits had talked of the American's 18th Grand Slam title being a formality -- barring injury or illness -- and debated how soon the 31-year-old would reach Steffi Graf's total of 22 Grand Slam titles.

The People’s Pope

 Pope Francis was Time Magazine’s person of the year in 2013. It started in a puff of smoke on March 13, 2013 when Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio was elected Pope on the second day of the 2013 papal conclave. He took the papal name Francis.
Since that day, Pope Francis has often been referred to as “The People’s Pope” – committing himself to the poor.
But the unwritten story is that of the papal conclave that essentially acted like a board of directors in choosing a successor to retiring Pope Benedict.
I am writing to document that they got succession right. While choosing a Pope is a unique and divine process, please note that picking the right person for any succession is a tough job. In fact, it is the ultimate “crystal ball” assignment.
So, a board, or in this case - a papal conclave - must be able to look into the future and pick the right person for the time. Plus they are taking a chance – after all, the person being chosen has never held the position before.
Needless to say, every time there is a new head of an organization – there is a high risk that the person is being “Peter Principled” which is filling management roles with people competent in a current role who are incompetent at the intended role.
Plus in choosing a leader, boards and others responsible for hiring the next person in charge, must start from the future, not the present. Yet, more often than not, a board thinks that a successor must come from their industry.

Good News You Might Have Missed in 2013

The spirit of the season is giving, but making year-end lists might be a close second. I’ve posted my own list—good news you might have missed in 2013.
You’re probably seeing a lot of people’s year-end lists right now, going through the best movies, books, YouTube clips, grumpy cat memes, etc.
I thought I would share a different kind of list: some of the good news you might have missed. I’ve limited my list to global health and development, where Melinda and I spend a lot of time, but even so, there’s a lot to report. If you measure progress by the number of children who die of preventable causes, or by the number of people who escape extreme poverty—as I do—then 2013 was definitely a good year.
For example:
We got smarter and faster at fighting polio. You may have heard about recent polio outbreaks in Syria, Kenya, and Somalia. What you may not know is just how rapid and effective the response has been. It looks like the outbreak in the Horn of Africa was controlled in 4 months, less than half the time it took to control an outbreak there in 2005. That speed is due in part to the work done at the Global Vaccine Summit held in Abu Dhabi this year. In the past, the world has had to make tough trade-offs between responding to outbreaks, improving routine immunization, and fighting the disease in the last three countries where polio is still circulating (Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Nigeria). There was no coordinated plan or long-term funding for doing all three at once. At the summit the world got both. We adopted a comprehensive plan for pursuing all three goals, including making the world polio-free by 2018. And more than 30 donors—including a number of very generous private individuals —backed the plan with a total of $4 billion in long-term funding. That means we won’t have to make those trade-offs anymore. It’s a huge step forward.
There’s also great news from India. In early 2014, India will have gone three years without a single polio case (assuming no new ones are reported between now and then). That’s a testament to the fantastic job they’ve done immunizing every child, even in the most remote parts of the country. Now they’re focused on keeping the disease from coming back.
Next door, in Pakistan, the political leaders are clearly resolved to get polio out of the country once and for all. When I met Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif this fall, he made it clear that he sees vaccinating children as a matter of justice. Despite the ongoing violence there and in Afghanistan—including horrifying reprisals against vaccine workers—the next couple of years are a good opportunity for us to make progress on this goal.

20 Business Lessons that might save you a headache

      20 Business Lessons  that might save you a headache:

       
1.    You can’t do everything on your own. Building a team is essential because there are only so many hours one person can devote to a business. Exactly when you reach that limit depends on your other obligations. If you’re a young single person, you might be able to do everything for a year or two. But if you have a family, your dedication will eventually hurt those relationships. Build a team that can carry on when you’re not around.
2.    You may think your product is perfect, but your clients won’t. Listen to user feedback: Your opinion may not be the best one. The key takeaway here is “release your product early and release it often.” You won’t know if you have a great product until it’s in the field and users are beating it up. It’s like some of the contestants on American Idol. They think they’re talented, and their friends and family think so, too, but when they get on a bigger stage, their flaws become obvious.
3.    Do one thing really well. Entrepreneurs try to be everything to everyone, but it’s hard to be the store that sells bait and baby toys and vintage Beatles albums. Specialize, and you can charge for what you do provide. That said, if there is a skill or service that would make your core product better, provide it.
4.    Get paid before you hand over a project to a client. This is especially important if you provide a service. Once you turn over that contract or website or design project, you won’t have much bargaining power. When I was a graphic designer, I watermarked all my projects and hosted websites on a private domain until the bill was paid.
5.    Undercharging is not sustainable. You think, “I don’t need to charge $150 an hour, I can charge $70 and make way more than I was making as an employee!” But you might find out a short time later that your “great” rate is unsustainable. By the time you pay taxes, employees, business licenses, insurance, etc., that $150/hour is looking more realistic. Compete on quality, expertise and your niche focus (see #3) instead of price. When competing on price alone, the clients who are price-shopping will always leave for the person or company that undercuts you.
6.    Patience and flexibility help you survive the lean times. ShortStack started out as a side project at my web and graphic design studio. We weren’t a software development studio, but when a client asked us for a software product, we didn’t say no. We were patient, scaled slowly — partly out of necessity — and it allowed me to build with company without debt.
7.    Build for your actual market. All of my software-building experience so far has been in answer to a demand. It is purely opportunistic. If you’re an app developer and you think “Wow, I think xx industry could use xx,” you might be disappointed. Put another way: I would never start a restaurant without having worked in one…for a long time!
8.    Never enter a partnership without a buy/sell agreement. No matter how well you think you know someone, you just don’t know when he or she will want to retire or do something else. Even if it’s on amicable terms, know how you can get rid of one another when it’s time for one of you to move on.
9.    Be grateful. Appreciate loyal customers who show you there is a demand for what you do. There is no dollar amount you can put on brand advocates. Good will translates to loyal customers.
10.    Look after those who look after you. We offer referral commissions at ShortStack, but it’s very much under the radar. We want people to recommend the product because they like it, not because they’ll say anything for a dollar. If we notice someone said nice things about us publicly, we might send them a t-shirt as a thank you. If they do it again and again, we might say, “Hey, you should become a referrer and earn a percentage of the business you send our way.”
11.    It’s not a sale until it’s paid for. This sounds obvious, but I’ve known small business owners who get very excited about orders and/or meetings with prospective clients. But until the money for those products or services is in the bank, it doesn’t count.
12.    You’ll make more money being “wrong” than proving you are right. Rather than fight with an unhappy customer and say, “You’re using it incorrectly,” or “You don’t know enough CSS to use our product,” we just refund their money. In the long run, these people consume so much of the support team’s time and energy that it’s more cost effective this way. They’re not our ideal client, and that’s OK.

David Cameron rules out any future military action in Syria

David Cameron has publicly ruled out the prospect of British military action in Syria following days of speculation that MPs could be allowed to reconsider the case for intervention because of events in America.

The Prime Minister said that the UK “can’t be part and won’t be part” of any military strikes against Bashar al-Assad’s regime.

Mr Cameron has come under pressure from senior Conservative to hold a second vote in the Commons on the issue after Barack Obama, the US President, delayed his response in Syria.

A number of ministers including Philip Hammond, the Defence Secretary, this week appeared to leave the door open to a second vote if the circumstances in Syria “change very significantly”.

Downing Street had for days only said that there were "absolutely no plans" to return to the Commons for another vote on Syria.

However, speaking during Prime Minister’s Questions, Mr Cameron excluded the possibility of Britain having any role in military action.

“I accept that Britain can't be part, and won't be part, of any military action on that front but we must not in any degree give up our utter revulsion at the chemical weapons attacks that we have seen and we must press this point in every forum that we are a member," Mr Cameron said.
He added: “I won't be bringing back plans for British participation in military action.”
The Prime Minister warned that the rest of the world is letting down the people of Syria.
He said the Government would continue to exercise its "diplomatic muscle" to press for a peaceful resolution to the conflict but warned that Assad must be put under real pressure from the international community.
His comments came as Sir Peter Tapsell, the Conservative MP for Louth and Horncastle, warned of the possibility of “Armageddon” if the American “illegally bombard the Assad forces”.
Mr Cameron replied: "The first point I would make is that we would never support illegal action. We debated and discussed this at some length last week and it is not the case the only way action can be legal is a UN resolution.
"We would only support action that would be legal, we would only support action that was proportionate.
