I will give you two stories (both mine). It was 1999 and I was 15 years old. My mom's friend ask me to deliver some christmas cards. The reason was that there was a monopoly of mail delivery in my country and it was so expensive that it was worth it to pay a young kid to do it. I did it for her ...
The key is to keep it simple at first and focus on rewarding the right behaviour. You can start by setting a gross revenue goal for the quarter, share with the team, and tell them if we hit that, that everyone will get a bonus. So in some sense, it's not about profit sharing at first. The reas...

More of a political answer than anything to be honest. Laws are created by politicians, politicians make their decisions based on lobbyists & public opinion. Lobbyists and public opinion can both be bought. One person only has one vote, a company can persuade millions of votes. Imagine what wou...
I have worked in brand development for over a decade. Have you ever thought about doing a high end concierge service? People answer questions and send pictures to have high end goods and gifts selected for them. Give me a call! I would love to brainstorm!
None. There are two basic reasons to get business insurance. First, if you're making enough money that you're worth suing. That does not apply in this case. Second, if your clients require you to have insurance before accepting you as a vendor for certain services. Most large companies will r...
