Great American Teach-In Day
It seems to vary from county to county, and state to state as to what the exact date is. In our area it will be on Thursday, November 15. If it is not an event in your area or country, then this is a great time for you to start a tradition. The idea is that you volunteer to teach at a local school. From those we have previously observed, you can get some great free press by being creative in what you teach and how you teach. You also get that good feeling from being an active part of your community.

The Power Promoting Idea of the Month |
Help them with the Christmas shopping
Sell something that comes in a choice of colors, sizes, or requires some information specific to the user? The power promoting idea of the month comes from a reader that creates a special business card for all their staff to use. The traditional information is on the front side, and the back side helps to gather the appropriate information. As an example, a men's clothing store would have spaces following these leads.
Coat size
Shirt size
Waist size
Inseam
Shoe size
Sweater size
Getting your staff to use these sales help business cards can greatly help your Christmas sales.
We are quickly coming to that time of year when I return to the office to work on new material and several continuing education projects, and you are becoming very busy with your business. So, the traveling takes a short break. Here is what is left on the schedule for 2007.
