With over 25 years of frontline experience Tom Shay is America's leading small business management expert. He's a "Must Have" for your next event.

Know a business that has inventory that is sitting stagnant? How about a business that has a clearance corner or worse yet, a section of the business that is dedicated to items that have been marked down in the hopes of someone deciding to spend some money and give that item a home.

This session will show just how expensive it is to hold onto dead inventory. It will also show how much more sales and profit could be made if that inventory were liquidated (liquidation ideas provided) and that money put into new areas of inventory that is selling.

A free calculator from the Profits Plus website is used in the illustration and provided to participants so they can calculate the cost of holding dead inventory in their business.

AdvisoriES


Seems like today, everyone is a consultant for something. Most small businesses owners have likely received an email, phone call, or visit from someone wanting to sell the services of a consultant.

 

You might find the right combination of consultants (let's call them advisors) in your own neighborhood. And they would likely trade their advice for some advice from you. This month's Small Business Advisory explains how.

Top Story

November has two special events tailored to small businesses. The first occurs in the third week of the month. It's the Great American Teach In Day. Your help will be needed and appreciated.

 

The second event is Saturday, November 28 - Small Business Saturday. Details of how to participate in each is in this month's newsletter.

Article of the Month

Approaching the end of the year, many small businesses start to consider their pay scale for 2027. With some small businesses, bonuses at the end of the year are a tradition. The article of the month shares ideas of how to approach payroll as the new year approaches.


Book of the Month

You are awesome at what you do. You are a small business owner and that takes a lot of bravery to do what you do.

 

Part of what you requires what Malcolm Gladwell calls, "thin slicing." Others refer to it as "gut feeling." The book of the month talks about the need to stop doubting your greatness.

All this plus the Internet Tool for Your Business and a staff incentive idea for your business.
