eCommerce in Iowa

I usually do not like ‘chain letters’, ‘pass-it-along’ emails etc.  I don’t really have time to read through these and ‘pass them along to twenty friends before I experience 60 years of bad luck’.  However, I have made an exception…  From the Anthony Robbins camp (if you haven’t already gotten this in your inbox sometime in the last 4 years).

ONE. Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.

TWO. Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, their conversational skills will be as important as any other.

THREE. Don’t believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want.

FOUR. When you say, ‘I love you,’ mean it.

FIVE. When you say, ‘I’m sorry,’ look the person in the eye.

SIX.. Be engaged at least six months before you get married.

SEVEN. Believe in love at first sight.

EIGHT. Never laugh at anyone’s dream. People who don’t have dreams don’t have much.

NINE. Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt but it’s the only way to live life completely.

TEN. In disagreements, fight fairly. No name calling.

ELEVEN. Don’t judge people by their relatives.

TWELVE. Talk slowly but think quickly.

THIRTEEN. When someone asks you a question you don’t want to answer, smile and ask, ‘Why do you want to know?’

FOURTEEN. Remember that great love and great achievements involve great risk.

FIFTEEN. Say ‘God bless you’ when you hear someone sneeze.

SIXTEEN. When you lose, don’t lose the lesson .

SEVENTEEN. Remember the three R’s: Respect for self; Respect for others; and Responsibility for all your actions.

EIGHTEEN. Don’t let a little dispute injure a great friendship.

NINETEEN. When you realize you’ve made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.

TWENTY. Smile when picking up the phone. The caller will hear it in your voice.

TWENTY-ONE. Spend some time alone.

These are great principles and can easily be applied to your life!  Successful steps toward a better you.  When you focus on yourself, making yourself better, your business will soon follow…  Things will still go sour every now and then, but remember – “Great Success is Born of Great Failure”.

More than just an ordinary exchange of money between hands… Commerce as we have known it, has grown into an electronic world that welcomes (with open arms) merchants to the power of online shopping.  Seems like yesterday that you had just opened up shop in your very own storefront.  Do you remember what it felt like the first time you hung that ‘OPEN’ sign in the window?  What about that first customer that walked through the door?  Taking the proverbial step forward -> to the online storefront, has never been easier.

Many think that it’s a difficult transition, it’s too complicated to manage my in-store business AND an online business.  Not enough time, not enough knowledge… just not enough you?!!?

So many things to think about – I don’t know how to set up an online store, I don’t know how much it’s going to cost, I don’t know if it’s worth it!  I don’t know if I want to do this online thing.  I don’t know how to get in the search engine result pages, and I don’t even know how to get my products from the garage to the web!

I can change all that… as a matter of fact – I AM GOING TO CHANGE ALL THAT.  Keep reading, keep checking back, and feel free to send comments, questions, suggestions, ideas, cookies, or books.  I welcome you to eCommerce in Iowa – the next step for your business future.

To forward thinking…
