No matter what business you’re in, whether you know it or not, you’re also in the business of learning. Even if you’re an experienced pro who’s ‘been there, done that and have the t-shirt to prove it’, there are still plenty of things you might not know. And even if you did somehow know everything about your chosen industry, things change.
Why go?
If you’ve ever done any sort of swimming, you know the difference between diving and a belly flop. With a dive, you punch crisply through the surface of the water. With a belly flop, there is that painful, gut-wrenching slap when you (or hopefully some other braver soul) find out that water doesn’t yield nearly as much as you thought. The reason for the difference is that water has a surprisingly high surface tension, and by spreading yourself out, as in a belly flop, there’s not enough momentum at any one point to overcome that surface tension.
You can spread yourself too thinly with your business too, and find that the beginning of the year has turned into one painful belly flop.

Well, not so fast...
“To improve is to change. To be perfect is to change often.”
-Winston Churchill

It’s the first day of 2017! Are you ready for it?

In the last few years, retail holidays like Cyber Monday and Small Biz Saturday have gone from being discount secrets to important parts of the holiday shopping scene. Competition among retailers can be pretty fierce, so it's important to take steps to be prepared for these important money-making events.
Let's look at some ways you might be able to up your game:
For more than two centuries, members of our Armed Forces have defended our country with unyielding courage. In our Nation's times of need, these brave patriots step forward to answer America's call, leaving behind everything they know and love.
