The Truth About Free Government Grants

12/11/2014

Free government grants do exist, but the government does not refer to them as such. They simply call them grants because, after all, that is what they are. Gurus, companies, and others out to make a quick dollar will try to reel you in and get you to buy their information on free grants. Do not give in to them. This information is already free and readily available to the public by The United States Government. You should never have to pay to receive this information.

Why would someone want to pay for something that is free? Better yet, why should they have to?

The United States Government already has topic-specific websites in place full of this information, as well as 1-800 numbers to call if you choose to gain the information that way instead.

Not only have the sellers of this "top-secret information" lied to the public by claiming that you must buy their programs, books, or other products to receive this information, but they have also led innocent people to believe that most of these grants are available to an individual person. While there are specific grants that are available to individuals, most grants are reserved for small businesses and non-profit organizations.

An individual person is not likely to get a grant to pay off a mortgage. Statements like this are simply made by these companies to get you to purchase their products. They tell you that unless you purchase what they are offering, you cannot find out about these grants. Well, in a sense they are correct, but not in the way you are led to think. That statement is correct because once you purchase their product, you will find out what they say about it. However, you will likely be disappointed when you contact the government agencies they mention. The reason for the upset is simple. The government will tell you that what you are asking for does not exist.

While the government does give farming, housing, business, college, education, and house building grants, these grants are given to non-profit organizations that help people. They are not given to individuals.

While individual grants do exist, the types of grants more commonly given to individuals is different than our expectations based upon what we are seeing and hearing in these ads.

An individual grant falls more along the lines of food stamp programs, section 8 vouchers, FAFSA, job training (not college; these are small courses designed to help those who have never worked or those who haven't worked in a long time transition into the working world), nursing traineeships, Head Start program, welfare/TANF/AFDC, scholarships, free vaccinations, and other such programs.

As you can see, while free government grants do exist, we are oftentimes misled as to what exactly they are.

For more information from the United States Government, please refer to the links below:

  • StudentAidEd.gov
  • SBA.gov (Small Business Administration)

Choosing a Debt Recovery Agency for Your Business

12/11/2014

If your company has one or more clients with an outstanding debt, you may be considering hiring a debt recovery agency. Doing so could be beneficial to your company. Before choosing one, there are some things you should know about using a debt recovery agent for your business.

What is Debt Recovery?

Debt recovery is the process of collecting monies owed from clients for goods or services. Debt recovery collections are used when a client either refuses to pay monies owed or cannot pay due to financial constraints.

What is a Debt Recovery Agency Used For?

A debt recovery agency is used by businesses (and sometimes private parties) to recover debts owed by clients. These debts might be for services performed or for goods sold to the client. The debt recovery agency takes over correspondence with delinquent account holders. It is their job to get these clients to pay the debt. Debt recovery agencies provide services such as billing and invoicing, legal services, recovery, collection services and judgment recovery.

How to Choose the Right Debt Recovery Agency

The first thing to remember in choosing a debt recovery agency to work with your business is to look into multiple agencies. A simple way to find multiple sources is by using a company that provides matching services for business-to-business transactions. By researching the practices, services and prices of multiple companies, you can better ensure that your company has made a good choice and is getting a fair deal. If you simply go with the first debt recovery agency you see, you might not be getting a fair price or full potential in services, but you won't know if you haven't looked into other debt recovery collection companies.

Ask questions of each debt recovery collections company and observe their debt recovery in action if possible. Are they fair and ethical with clients? Do they or are they willing to practice business in the same manner as your company when handling your clients? Are they following the law in their debt recovery process? Do not be afraid to examine each debt recovery agency. This will help you determine which one is right for your company and its needs. If you go with business-to-business matching services, this process will be much smoother, as companies will be matched to yours, based on specific criteria.

How Do Debt Collection Agencies Work?

12/10/2014

If your business needs to recover client debts, you may be considering hiring a collection agency. Before deciding whether you'll use one or not, you need to know how debt collection agencies work. There are various fees involved in utilizing debt collection agencies, as well as various reasons a business would benefit from using one.



How do Debt Collection Agencies Work?


Debt collection agencies are entities hired by businesses to recover debts owed for goods or services. Debt collection agencies often have a proven track record of getting results and are considered experts in debt recovery. Debt collection agencies work exclusively on debt recovery, allowing you to concentrate on the more pleasant aspects of your business.

Why Use Debt Collection Agencies?


A business may choose to use debt collection agencies for a variety of reasons. One reason is their proven track record of success in debt recovery. Sometimes clients will respond more readily to a debt collector than to the business they are dealing with. When a debt owed has gone to collections, the client knows that it is one step closer to being reported as debt on their credit report, if it hasn't been already. This prompts many to pay immediately. Also, most people want to avoid court, which is where some companies will take them if the debt cannot be settled through collection agencies.

What Type of Fee Structure Do Debt Collection Agencies Follow?

There are various fee structures depending on the particular debt collection agency used, as well as the dollar amount of the debt. For smaller debts, it would be wise to choose between collection agencies that will charge a flat fee rate. For larger debts, you may want to choose from debt collection agencies that will take a percentage from the debt upon collection or will directly purchase the delinquent account from your business.

Choosing Between Debt Collection Agencies

When choosing between debt collection agencies, ask a lot of questions to make sure you understand how each of the debt collection agencies work. You want to choose a company that is open to following your company's practice in dealing with clients. Also, you want to choose a company that has a proven track record for success as well as professionalism in dealing with clients. The company must also follow ethical collections practices, which are laid out by the law. This is why it's important to review multiple debt collection agencies before making the final decision.

Favorite Business Lunch Restaurants in Houston

12/10/2014

by Lyn Lomasi, Staff Writer

Business lunch spots are a must in any city. Houston, one of America's largest cities, is certainly no exception. But, in a city so large and full of options, how do you find the best dining spot for your business solution?

Whatever option you choose, be sure that it fits your business needs. For instance, if you are meeting your boss about an important client, you don't want to choose a fast food restaurant. You would choose something more upscale and formal.

Below I have compiled a list and overview of what I consider to be the best business lunch spots in Houston. There are a variety of options, so no matter your lunchtime business need, these suggestions should be able to help you out.

Texas Land & Cattle


If you're looking for a steakhouse, Texas Land & Cattle could be your choice. There are many menu options at this popular steakhouse. You don't have to be restricted to steak here. You can also find many chicken dishes, as well as specialty salads. The only qualms some have about this restaurant is the lack of choice for vegetarians. It seems the only menu item available for a vegetarian is a salad. While this is a steakhouse, it is still a great spot for either one-on-one lunch meetings or group meetings. Group dining is available here. Texas Land & Cattle is at the average price range for steakhouses.

Pappasito's Cantina


Pappasito's is the ideal business lunch location for a variety of business needs. Pappasito's is a Tex-Mex restaurant, boasting a variety of flavorful menu options. Not only is this a great sit-down restaurant for one-on-one business lunches, it's also perfect for larger parties. There is even a separate area that can be rented out for private parties or meetings - and a Mariachi band will play for you as well. The prices are fair and the food is exceptional. If Mexican food isn't your thing, the same company chain (Pappa's Restaurants) also has Pappadeux Seafood Kitchen, Pappa's Bros. Steakhouse, Pappa's BBQ, Pappa's Seafood House, Pappa's Greek Kitchen (Yia Yia Mary's), Pappa's Burger and Pappa's Grill. All of these are favorites among Houstonians. These restaurants have various locations around the Houston area.

Taco Cabana


If you enjoy Tex-Mex, but aren't looking for the restaurant feel, Taco Cabana might be your choice. You can dine-in or get your food to go. Taco Cabana also has a drive-thru if you and your business partners prefer to take your lunch back to the office or elsewhere. If you choose to eat at Taco Cabana, expect to order your food at the counter and choose your own seating area. Once your order number is called, you'll need to go to the counter to pick up your order. There is also a salsa station so that you can add the salsas of your choice to your food tray. Taco Cabana has many locations all over Houston.

Olive Garden

Olive Garden is an Italian restaurant that is famous for its salad. The lunch menu has items you would expect to see at an Italian restaurant, such as lasagna, filled pastas, soups, salads, pizza and chicken scampi. There are many more delectable foods to choose from, including a wine menu and dessert. This restaurant is great for one-on-one business meetings or average-sized groups. If your party is a fairly large size, you should call ahead to alert the staff.

Chili's

Chili's is a traditional American-style bar and grill restaurant. Here you can get most traditional American foods, such as hot wings, salads, burgers, nachos and also some specialties exclusive to Chili's. Southwest Eggrolls are a favorite among many Chili's patrons. There is also an alcoholic beverage menu. These items can be ordered from a table or from the bar. If your business meeting is casual, Chili's is an excellent place to go for lunch. You can expect to pay an average of about $9 per entree. However, some are less and some are more.

P.F. Chang's


P.F. Chang's is a bistro-style Chinese restaurant. Here you can find traditional Chinese food, such as lettuce wraps, peking dumplings, wontons, spring rolls, spare ribs, wonton soup, lo mein and more. At P.F. Chang's, you will find menu options for vegetarians as well as meat eaters. This is a more formal dining experience than the previously-mentioned restaurants, which makes it perfect for important business meetings. You’ll get your meal served to you in courses. Expect to pay above average prices for this meal.

How to Incorporate Social Media into Your Small Business

12/10/2014

0 Comments

 
by Lyn Lomasi, Staff Writer
Picture
There often comes a point in time when a small business needs to offer a solution for effective communication. This could be communication between employees. It might even be communication between clients, customers or the general public. This is when social media comes into play. A small business may choose to use social media for only one of these groups. Yet another may choose to make social media accessible to all.

What is Social Media?

Social media is the combination of technology and social interaction. Generally, social media is that which is accessed through various Internet tools. The purpose of social media is to have interaction between a group of people involved with the company either directly or indirectly. Each company's specific use will differ.

Social Media Platforms to Consider

Blogging is one social media platform that has become popular for the small business. It allows a company to keep everyone updated on what is going on. Those who read the blog may also leave comments, which create more opportunity for open communication. Another social media platform that a small business might find useful is an online forum where users can post and reply to messages.

Networking websites (like Facebook, Twitter, and Google Plus) are also great for a small business to join, as they can help existing people affiliated with the business to communicate, as well as draw in new people and ideas. These are only some of the many social media platforms a small business may consider.


Getting Started With Social Media

The first part of incorporating social media into a small business is deciding whether it will be run from the company's own website or whether various existing websites or platforms would be utilized. If a small business already has a website, it is wise to see which types of social media would be easy to implement into that site's design. This will make it more readily accessible to those who will utilize it.

If that option does not work, the decision should then be made as to whether the small business will pay for its social media or utilize free services. For instance, there are various websites that offer free blogging accounts, free forums and other types of social media. There are also websites and services that may charge a fee to the small business for specialized social media services.


Choosing the Right Social Media

A small business should make its social media decisions based upon the needs of the business, its clients and its customers as well as those of the employees. For instance, let's say a company is looking for simpler communication between its employees when they are not at work. That small business could create a password-protected Internet forum for employees to post and reply to messages at their own convenience.

Yet another small business may want to instead create an Internet forum for interaction between its customers or clients to allow them to relate to each other, as well as to get a feel for what they are looking for. Still another small business may not even have a need for an Internet forum, but prefer to operate an interactive news source instead.

It is important to wisely choose social media and how it will be used. A poor choice in this area could waste time and money that could have been utilized for a more effective social media plan.

Benefits of Hiring a Debt Collector for Your Business

12/8/2014

As a business owner, you may find yourself in a situation where a client or customer is refusing to pay or ignoring inquiries. It may go something like this:                        

"Mary, when I spoke to you last week, you said you would pay me Thursday. It is Sunday, and I still see no evidence of a payment."

"I'm sorry, Charles. I tried to get a payment in, but I just can't right now. Can I have another extension?"

"Mary, I've already given you three extensions. I cannot afford to wait for this payment any longer."

If you have been in a scenario like this, you are not alone. Unfortunately, it’s fairly common. Thankfully, a debt collector can help take away some of the stress involved.

What is a Debt Collector?

A Debt collector often is hired by businesses and sometimes private parties to help collect debts that are owed by patrons of the business. There are many ways that a business can benefit from the services of a debt collector. Some of the benefits are obvious, such as the collection of the debt. However, there are many subtle benefits as well.

What Types of Services can Debt Collectors Provide?

A debt collector can handle the job of contacting your clients when they are delinquent in their financial obligations to you. Phone calls, bills and other correspondence related to the financial obligations of your delinquent clients can be handled by a debt collector.

What are the Benefits of Hiring a Debt Collector?

It can be difficult to collect a debt. Clients may give any number of excuses or reasons as to why they have not satisfied their financial obligation to you. If you know your clients well, this can pose a problem. It can be difficult not to sympathize with clients you have established a long term business relationship with. A debt collector will not have the disadvantage of knowing your clients as well as you do. Debt collectors are simply there to collect debts.

Debt collection agencies often will keep track of all correspondence with your clients. In some instances this will not be needed, because hearing from a debt collector often is enough incentive for many people to go ahead and make the payment. But in some situations, people either just will not be able to pay or will flat out refuse to pay. In some of those cases, it may go to court. The records that a debt collector will keep can provide evidence in the case of your business.

How Do I Choose a Debt Collector?

When choosing a debt collector, you should learn about their track record. It's important to look into multiple entities. Choose a debt collector that best suits your business needs. A good debt collector will be willing to handle collection matters legally, as well as in a way that benefits your company and follows its policy.

What is POS Software? 

12/7/2014

POS software is what tells your point of sale system how to perform certain tasks, as well as how information is to be sent across multiple systems and the Internet. Exactly which tasks your POS software will perform depends on what software you choose and what needs your business may have. Be sure to get free price quotes and product details from a variety of vendors before making a purchase.

Using POS Software

All small business POS software does not work the same, so it is important to examine different packages before making your final decision. Try to pick software that has all the features your company is looking for, but also is easy to learn and use for both you and your employees. Once it has been determined which POS software your company will use, and you have become familiar with its workings, you will likely want to offer a training session to instruct employees how to operate the system.

POS Software: Features

One feature you will see in most point of sale software is the ability to operate the cash drawer. A POS cash drawer cannot be opened or operated without a user ID and password. Another feature is the ability to transmit data to various business locations. This can be helpful to businesses that have more than one location, including small businesses with both a home office and a professional location. The small business POS software tracks everything that is done over the POS system. This can help prevent errors, process refunds and paperwork, find out which products sell most, and much more. POS software can come in forms compatible with both monitors and LCD touch screens. LCD touch screens are the most popular as they offer ease of use and quicker transactions than keyboard operation does.

Customizing POS Software

POS software is very versatile and can be customized to fit the needs of your business. For instance, if your company is a retail location, the POS system can not only track the sales, but also keep a record for bookkeeping as well as for restocking inventory. That same system might also keep a record of customer information, sales and promotions, price lists and more. This can make it simpler to look up information for refunds, check item stock for a customer, and to help control inventory loss.

Should You Buy a Used POS System?

12/6/2014

0 Comments

 
by Lyn Lomasi, Staff Writer
Picture
When considering a point of sale system for your company, there are times when it is practical to purchase a used POS system. There also are times where it will be more cost effective to buy a new one. It is important to pay attention to minor details and get price quotes and product descriptions from several different vendors before making a decision.



Used POS System: Pricing


While pricing could play a role in your decision, it shouldn't be the deciding factor. The money that a POS system will save your business in the long run is likely far greater than any discount you will receive on a used POS system. Instead, look for the best system you can get that will fit your company's operational needs. Cheap POS systems are not always the best deal.

Software Support

POS software sometimes requires support, as does most software. When there are questions or difficulties that need to be resolved, it is the software support that your business will be consulting. The problem with some used POS systems is that support for the software may no longer exist. To run the system efficiently, you may have to purchase support or even a whole new software program. Doing so could cost you more than a new system.

Compatibility


Be sure to find out if all the POS components you are purchasing are compatible with each other, and whether anything extra will be needed for the system to operate. Individual components aren't worth much, if anything at all, without compatible components and software. Be sure to pay close attention to this detail, especially when choosing a used POS system.

Customization

The biggest benefit to a POS system is the ability to customize it to each company's needs. When considering a used system, be sure to examine how much customization is possible. Pay attention and make sure it is what your company is looking for. If the system cannot meet your company's needs, then it is not a wise choice. A POS system without all the desired features is usually a waste of money.

Upgrade and Management Options

As businesses grow and technology changes, upgrades will need to be made to the system. Be sure that the used options you are considering allow the ability to upgrade. If a system cannot be upgraded, it will not be good for your business. Software often requires upgrades to process data in the most current format.

Do You Need a POS Cash Drawer?

12/6/2014

0 Comments

 
by Lyn Lomasi, Staff Writer
Picture
Deciding whether or not your company needs a POS cash drawer depends on many factors. Though most businesses will benefit, it is best to weigh all the pluses and negatives when deciding whether to make a purchase or not.

What Makes a POS Cash Drawer Different?


A POS cash drawer can only be operated in conjunction with the right POS cash register equipment and software. This helps prevent theft and also helps keep better track of sales. Sales are tracked in real time over the Internet through the POS software. On a manual cash register, sales might be added up, but they are not saved or transmitted in real time. A POS cash drawer also tracks inventory, customer information, refund dates and more.

Why Use a POS Cash Drawer?


Accounting is made simpler through the use of a point of sale cash register. There are fewer steps and less paperwork to be processed compared with a manual cash register. If your company has several locations and your customers wish to use their accounts at more than one of these, point of sale equipment makes that simpler.

For example, say that a customer purchases a vacuum on Saturday. The customer has an account with your business, so his information, along with all of his sales transactions, are stored within the POS system. On Monday he decides he no longer wants that vacuum, but he has lost his receipt to prove he has paid for it. With a POS cash drawer, this isn't a problem because the customer's information can be looked up easily.

Do You Really Need a POS Cash Drawer?

Compare the benefits of a POS cash drawer to your company’s needs. Most companies will likely find that the benefits outweigh the risks. It’s much less difficult to track valuable customer data that is within easy access. That being said, if your company only does a few transactions per day, you may want to stick with your current method or use the most simplified version of POS cash drawers available.

A regular cash register can be operated by anyone. However, a POS cash drawer can only be operated by registered users with a password. This adds a measure of security. The best POS cash drawers are made of steel for durability, since they are opened and closed so many times during the day. Getting price quotes and product details from various vendors can help you choose the right system for your company's needs.

First Person: Why Networking is Essential to Building a Business

12/5/2014

0 Comments

 
by Lyn Lomasi, Staff Writer
Picture
When building a business, there are many things to keep in mind in order to keep it afloat. One of the best pieces of business advice I received when starting my own business was to network. This is true for all businesses, but it's especially helpful for small businesses.

Networking with business peers provides essential knowledge

Others in your field can share important facts and advice with you. Even if you keep up with the latest business news, others will have other helpful experiences and insight. You may not always do things the way that person recommends, but sharing opinions, advice, and experiences with each other can teach you all valuable lessons.


Industry clients can help you satisfy your own clients

Talking to those who seek the services or products you provide can help you gain insights into dealing with your own clients. Of course, you will discuss things with your own clients. But networking with others, whether they become clients or not, can give you a different perspective. They may also help you come up with innovative new ideas.

Network with your audience to keep them satisfied

I am a journalist, which means that I need to keep readers happy. I also own several websites. Much of what I do revolves around content, be it creation, editing, publishing, and even mentoring. It's highly important that I keep up with what my audience is interested in. If I don't know what they want, I could easily lose that audience. Another website or article is just a click away from mine. For this reason, I like to keep an open dialogue with my audience. I will network through social sites and answer questions wherever my work is displayed. I consider my readers to be my friends. This is one thing I have done from the beginning just for the enjoyment. But I quickly learned it was also good business practice.

Where can you network with everyone?


There are many possibilities when it comes to networking. You can join organizations especially geared toward your business. There are also focus groups (online and off), business forums, and seminars. Online forums are a great way to discuss ideas, network with customers, and clients, and even find training materials. Social venues, such as facebook and Twitter can be invaluable. They can allow the space to network with clients, gain clients, network with peers, and even offer customer service. For those leery of adding just anyone to their facebook friends, you don't have to. Set up a public facebook page for business purposes. There are many possibilities. Where you network is not as important as keeping it up and having a variety of sources.

The recommendation to expand networking came near the beginning of my career as a journalist. I firmly believe it is a large reason for many of my successes thus far. Don't be afraid to put yourself out there and share things with peers, audience, clients, and customers. When you open up to them, they will be willing to open up to you as well. Everyone has something to teach someone else about every business and networking makes that possible.
