http://contentiscurrency.com/ http://cherihillshow.com/ Think money is the main currency in business? Think again. The dominance of the web and the human behavior spawned from it as a result has turned social content into a new, increasingly important, currency. Most organizations are unclear how to use content marketing within their organization to truly make an impact to both attract AND retain customers.   In the digital age, content is no longer confined to the written page. It is spread across web and mobile, taking the form of podcasts, webinars, widgets, and blog posts. Powerful content tells the story of your product or business, but it means nothing if it's not written well, optimized for search and social media, and properly marketed. In Content is Currency, my guest, content strategist Jon Wuebben explains the fine art of content development by utilizing the latest Search Engine Optimization and Social Media Marketing techniques, and provides you with the tools and strategies you need to get your

What does a company stand for? What values do its employees embody? What do its products contribute to the world? Answering these questions succinctly but meaningfully is challenging but worth pursuing to the many companies that craft “core value statements” or “mission statements” to anchor every aspect of a business in a set of commonly-held beliefs and commitments. My guest, Andy Bailey can cut through organizational BS faster than a hot knife through butter, showing organizations the logjams thwarting their success and coaching them past the excuses we all use to avoid doing what needs to be done. He doesn’t ask for what’s easy, only what’s possible, and with his assistance the possible often expands to include the formerly impossible, as organizations learn that one step at a time gets you a long way when you step up to the challenge every day. After all, as he tells his clients, 100% annual growth is only 2% growth every week. It’s not easy. But certainly possible. Andy learned how to build great organ

http://www.traceywilen.com/ http://cherihillshow.com/ We are on the cusp of a major transformation in our relationships with our tools. Over the next decade, new smart machines will enter offices, factories, and homes in numbers we have never seen before. They will become integral to production, teaching, combat, medicine, security, and virtually every domain of our lives. As these machines replace humans in some tasks, and augment them in others, their largest impact may be less obvious: their very presence among us will force us to confront important questions. What are humans uniquely good at? What is our comparative advantage? And what is our place alongside these machines? We will have to rethink the content of our work and our work processes in response. My guest, Dr. Tracey Wilen is a prominent thought leader on the impact of technology on society, work and careers.

http://wndd.org/economic-development-conference/ Economic development is the process of growing the overall economy, including job creation, new businesses and growing existing businesses. It includes a group of activities and a multitude of contributing factors such as leadership, quality education, workforce housing, public investment, government support, and community buy-in that drive economic development and which must be undertaken to improve the quality of life and increase the standard of living in a community or region. That means that each community must respond accordingly depending on existing assets and maturity of those assets. The Western Nevada Development District is Nevada's sole planning district recognized by the U.S. Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration and is comprised of the governing bodies of the nine counties of western Nevada, stretching from Humboldt County in the north to Mineral County in the south. Since 2006, there has been a huge emphasis on a regional

http://cherihillshow.com/ http://rockettom.com/ Watching the Olympics, I saw an ad that Walmart is committed to creating more American jobs by helping to spark a revitalization of U.S.-based manufacturing, or as they call it, “The American Renewal”. They have a goal that by the year 2023, they are pledging to purchase approximately $250 billion dollars in products that support the creation of American jobs. They plan on doing this 3 ways: • 1. Increasing what they already buy of U.S. manufactured goods • 2. Source “new to Walmart” U.S. manufactured goods and • 3. Re-shore the manufacturing of goods they currently buy by facilitating and accelerating the efforts of their suppliers.

http://larrypresents.com/ Customer satisfaction horror stories are everywhere. We’ve all come to expect less than optimal service despite the claims that we live in a service economy. It’s tempting to join the chorus of complainers and no one will criticize you if you do. But we can also look at this state of affairs from another viewpoint: as an opportunity. The upside potential for those who give good service is unlimited. By making the process of customer satisfaction a part of our daily lives, we can virtually guarantee our professional and career success. Broadly speaking, the term customer, in my mind is a person with whom we exchange value. So it would follow that no business or organization (such as government agencies, civic organizations, schools, service clubs and religious congregations) can succeed without building customer satisfaction and loyalty.

Despite our best efforts to manage our time efficiently, and despite the many time-saving devices designed to make life easier, our lives often seem filled to the brim. We cram our days with activities, thinking that each one of them is important and absolutely necessary. We schedule virtually every minute of every day. We say we want free time, but few of us can sit still, even for a moment. For most people our smart phones, wireless computing, the availability of auto-ship so you don’t have to constantly shop for the same products, same day or over-night delivery and the endless streaming of information actually create more stress than they eliminate. We may save time by making a ten-minute call while driving in our car instead of waiting until we get home. But then, after dinner, you make another call, losing the time we worked so hard to save. Instead of accomplishing the same goals more quickly, we set higher goals, constantly pushing ourselves to do more and do it faster, thus getting further and furt

The only way to assure continued profits for any business is through constant analysis of what’s happening in that business. Whether you are selling products or services, it’s important to periodically study sales and cost figures relating to your business. In them you will discover clues to what you must do to increase profits each year. Sometimes it means cutting expenses or increasing the price of certain products or services; sometimes it means adding something else to your line (which, incidentally, may have little effect on your overhead costs); and sometimes it means dropping a product or activity that clearly is proving to be unprofitable. If you want to sustainably succeed in business, you must learn how to identify and diagnose the activities which are sabotaging your financial results and then know how to correct those mistakes so that the results you desire can be achieved. Never forget this: Measure Results, Change Activities. My guest, Tim Nelson owner and manager of Evans Nelson & Company
