Research those organizations and positions. 4. Prepare pitch sheets and J.I.S.T. cards (mini-resumes) targeting those positions. 5. Complete your resume, and if necessary complete multiple versions to target each position. 6. Write appropriate cover letters for the positions. 7. Record and evaluate responses to a set of standard interview questions. 8. Record and evaluate responses to a set of predictable behavioral interview questions. 9. Record and evaluate a response to one situational interview question. 10. Record and evaluate a response to one wild-card question.

      With all the tools available now a days, companies should have no trouble accessing and analyzing the information they require to make decisions that benefit their success. But somehow, small business owners and people in general, are known for taking guesses or going with their gut feeling. And if you are one of them and are already operating small business, well trust me, you are not alone. We have to understand that many starting business owners are pretty much relying on their instincts and knowledge to establish and grow a company. And there is nothing wrong with this, there are learning curves in every company; that allow you to gain the necessary experience to determine what type of information will be critical in assisting you to make better decisions. Do you have a software system or the necessary skills to generate useful information to manage your company and make the right calls? If you are currently just relying on your instincts and knowledge of the business, well, let me ask you a couple of questions: What drives your business decisions? What type of information do you analyze or have when considering expansions or changes in your business operation? What do you base on when hiring or firing employees? What comparison or evaluation do you realize when considering change of location? How do you track employee productivity? You may be very organized, have an established business plan, a net and detailed budget and you are ready in any aspect possible. But what happens if nothing goes as planned? Or if something varies from your initial or established strategy? You may be forced to take educated or logical guesses at those times, and that might help you come up with solutions or options. When this type of reality strikes you, many are not prepared to adapt. You can have a plan but if you are not able to track progress close enough to react, a small bump in a strategy or a wrong turn can completely ruin your plans and put your company at risk.

                You know how most service businesses struggle to launch because they can't generate enough cash? It's a constant battle between getting new clients and charging a rate that doesn't scare them away. Charge too much and no one buys. But charge too little and you're doing almost free work. That's not the strategy to a successful company. Imagine instead that you had an offering that was generating a ton of cash. There's no trade-off between sales and price. You're the premium offering and everyone knows it. They hand over the cash to you gladly to buy what you're selling. In addition, you're not killing yourself with loads of work you don't get paid for. In fact, you've designed your business in a way that pays you even when you're not working. I want to show you how. In this course, we're going to cover how to design a High-Ticket Program - the perfect "sweet spot" between product and service that allows you to work like it's a product, but get paid like it's a service. We cover: What you need to get started What is a High-Ticket Program? Business models that work, and those that don't How to price your services Creating a "big outcome" that your customers desperately want Designing a process that makes you the expert and the obvious choice for your customer Scaling delivery so you don't run out of time with just a few customers How to ensure your customer actually gets results with your program The course is designed in a case-study format. We'll be using 3 different types of businesses throughout so you can see exactly how each of these principles is applied. You'll also have a self-guided implementation project where you apply these principles to your own business, step-by-step just like we cover in the course. At the end, you'll have the outline of a High-Ticket Program that will drive cash into your business and value to your customers. Because a successful business generates both: value and cash.

                  In this course Growing Your Business , we look at the stages of growth that a business goes through and the corresponding challenges during each stage. A growing business represents its own unique challenges that many people often don't think about. Many small businesses dream of growth – increased sales turnover, increased customers etc., but unless the company is geared to handle that growth – the company may find the whole operation could be at risk because they simple 'can't handle' it. This situation is called 'over trading'. We look at where you are now, and how the growth framework (which is a method whereby your business could grow exponentially) works and we look at ways and ideas in which the business could grow. A few simple changes – could result in huge increases. Simple, measureable changes. We discuss the ways to manage the process because a growing business requires more resources and expertise to manage it. We look at 10 key issues when growth is present and how these issues can be resolved. There's different stakeholders within an organization who are all impacted when growth occurs. We explore various sources of finance – how to fund this growing business – whether it's through other peoples time or other peoples money. A work booklet is included for you to fill in. The course will take about 1 - 2 hours to complete. You watch the module and then fill in the workbook to apply to your own business situation. If you are studying business at college, or if you are an owner/ manager of a growing business or if you have an interest in business growth – then you'll enjoy this course. We mix some textbook theory with some very practical examples. You'll have very strong ideas to take away which will help you to grow your own organization.
