"Business Ethics" Articles
 

  • Business Ethics: Managing Your Relationship With Competitors - As a business, your competitors are just that: competitors.
  • Prepare Your Mindset For Joint Venture Partnerships - Most people are like, “Oh, yeah. If you do a mail-out for me, I’ll do a mail-out for you.” Yes, that’s a joint venture, but that’s one of a million different things you can do. You need to develop a mindset that is creative and not competitive. If you’re saying about the sale, “What’s in it for me?” and that’s all you’re really concerned about, you’re never going to be able to get past that. The most important thing to say to your prospective joint venture partner is, “How can we create a benefit for everybody?” There are unlimited amounts of resources out there that you can tap into.
  • Keep Your Own Money With JV Partnerships - If you can turnkey the operation, you basically put in all of the sweat equity. As soon as you have control of the deal, you determine when you enter, when you exit, and you have more control for leverage to go whatever way you want to go. When you approach someone that you feel has a bigger network, a bigger income and a better reach, then get them to turnkey the entire deal. If you want to find capital in the joint venture, there’s not an easier way than to go and find a killer deal and basically amplify the value of it all the way from the beginning to the end. When looking for investors and you think you have a good deal, be aware that before you go to someone and ask for capital, they’re going to ask for your numbers.
  • Joint Ventures: Stick With Your Market - Always keep your market in the forefront of your thinking, particularly when doing joint ventures, and ask if these two questions apply to your business: 1. What other businesses or products out there directly benefit from your product? 2.
  • Joint Ventures: Gain Control Of Your JV Deal - When it comes to reaping what you sow, you’ve got to have real clear-cut guidelines from the very beginning. You’ve got to know your partners, like them, and trust them, and everyone needs to know what each one brings to the JV table. When you're the one approaching others about a joint venture and it’s pretty much your baby, then you want to get control of the deal from the get-go. Talk upfront with partners about what you think is fair and make sure that the deal is structured fairly. Then do everything you can to over-deliver for your partners and you'll keep them forever.
  • Joint Venture Win-Win Strategies - Many details underlie the process. You’ve got to keep improving your product and you’ve got to keep improving your marketing, because at the end of the day, you want someone to say to you, "Yeah, I think that's a great idea and I'd love to help you out." Your job is to sell them on your product, and once you get them to a point of acceptance, endorsements are absolutely huge.
  • Joint Ventures With A Small Database - The first thing you need to know is that joint venturing isn't just limited to your database. Joint ventures are only limited by your creativity. You can use a joint venture for pretty much anything. Nothing is set in stone, and even if you start out as the middle person putting together deals and you don't have a database at all, you can still make it work. • You can use joint ventures for credibility. • You can use them to get more clients, more prospects to convert. • You can use a joint venture to raise money and for joint marketing. • You can use joint ventures to access knowledge or expertise for equity partnerships.
  • Joint Ventures: What's In It For Me? - You have to be transparent when you're doing this and you have to be able to state your case. “Look, here's the benefit for you.” You must give them the benefit. You also have to put yourself out there and say what it is you want out of the joint venture. “And here's what I want out of it.” When you start doing a pitch for a joint venture, the last thing you're going to talk about is yourself. In fact, the first thing you want to talk about is the benefit to the other party: • We're going to help you with your sales conversions.
  • Joint Ventures: Do I Need A List? - A key element in successful joint ventures is to find someone who has a complementary product. Figure out what it is that you have that's unbelievable, that you know for a fact you do better than pretty much anyone else out there. Use your product to extend the product offering for someone else. You would be following a complementary product, and then you're going to go and say, "Add this to your product mix,” and you can put together a revenue share on that. If you want to build your list, figure out what your core competency is, what your value is, and then trade that for people to do an endorsement for you.
  • Too Many Competitors? Try Joint Ventures - You want to figure out what your uniqueness is and how you'll provide value, so that you're leveraging their list and their client base with your products or resources. Don’t waste time looking for other, less well-known people or obscure products. Go to where the clients already are, to someone who is already doing what you want to do and who has a good client base. If you have a product, you might repackage your product so that you can co-brand it.
  • What Joint Venture Capitalists Look For In Partnerships - You really have to get to the nuts and bolts of where all your cash flow is coming from, what kind of contracts you have in place that are going to generate revenue. At the end of the day, that's all they're really going to care about, their ROI, their return on investment. If you have the rights to distribute and you secure yourself that way, then you're in control.
  • Integrity First: Living the Honor Code in Business - Integrity First. It's core value #1 of the U.S. Air Force... embraced by our leadership, taught in our training programs, and a symbol of the commitment and character of the men and women serving our country. I learned a valuable lesson about the true meaning of integrity after only serving several years in the Air Force. It wasn't on a combat mission flying an F-16. It was during a training sortie I flew as a brand new instructor pilot, and I learned it flying solo.
  • The Competitive Advantage of Fun - At the How You Can Assemble, Develop, and Lead a High Performing Team seminar I facilitated, a business leader stated a passionate case for a company she recently left. "You never realize how much it means when you wake up in the morning and look forward to going to work each day until that changes," Diane said.
  • Is Integrity Lost? - What happened to integrity? It seems to have gone the way of the buggy whip. Today so many people think they are going to get "ripped off" "scammed" or "taken" when ever they are looking at online businesses or opportunities. There is a perception that no one has integrity any more. Well, that just isn't the case. I have learned over time... It is the thief, who thinks everyone steals, and the liar, who thinks everyone lies...with the converse also being true. Today on the internet, sure there are scams out there and yes, people lose money sometimes...but not everything on the internet is a scam. It would be like saying that every offering on eBay is "too good to be true" or every commercial offering on TV is unrealistic.
  • Con Man's Legal Phone Scam - 900 Phone Line Offer - Several of the 900-phone line operators are now offering to share the wealth: give you a chance to be just like them. They will set you up in business for yourself, the easy way: they will do all the work, and you sit back and enjoy the profits. They already have the facilities, and the phone operators / answerers / counselors--or whatever you would call these people--and are now extending the hand of friendship toward your wallet. "Sharemanship" you might otherwise call it. For a little under $500 you can offer all the same "services they do. They will set you up with your very own 900-phone number turnkey-package business. The 3 best model packages from which you can choose, as the offering of your very own 900 service, are: 1. Matchmaker.
  • Legal Thriller Author Dissects Con Man-Inspired Courtroom Scam - You go to the track to play the horses. Bad day. You lose $5,000. You try to recoup by buying 1,000 lottery tickets. With the 100,000,000 to 1 odds against you so drastically reduced, you now have an excellent chance of winning, don't you? Wrong. Next you clean out your bank accounts, borrow on your insurance policies, take a second mortgage on your house, and go to Las Vegas. Ignoring how storm clouds form, you know you can turn your run of bad luck around and come out of your mire smelling like a rose garden.
  • Business And Heart - Business must be tampered with heart and care for environment and others. Failure to do so, will lead to all kinds of problems. Take for example, the global warming and earth changes are direct effects of this lack of care. Many of us simply did not cared enough to keep the environment from deteriorating. Businesses focussed purely on profit-making are just not good enough.
  • Paralegals - Do They Have a Code of Ethics? - In a business sense, ethics are a system of moral principles or rules of conduct. Attorneys, paralegals, and legal assistants or secretaries have codes of ethics within the legal field. A paralegal should maintain a high degree of professionalism while performing her work. That high degree of professionalism is ensured when she manages her work duties while following a particular code of ethics.
  • Business Ethics 101 - Sometimes life provides us with character-defining opportunities that remain with us forever. If we're lucky, that is. These events, which occur in both our professional and our personal lives, are significant not for their particulars, but for what they say about who we are and who we are not. It is who we become as a result of these experiences-not the experiences themselves-that is most important. This is because these "choice points" articulate our values, clarify our character, and define our integrity. I had one such experience many years ago when I first relocated to Seattle. It's an experience that has stayed with me because it was so profound and because, to this day, I am still both humbled and humiliated by it. I had had business cards printed, and there was an error.
  • When Employers Track Your Lifestyle Through Internet Social Networks - You would have to be doing the modern day version of Rip Van Winkle to not be aware of the controversy Internet Social Networks are creating.
