Specialty Advertising in C-Stores
It appears the mini-blimp indoor theme and concept is making significant headway. We have seen them in the halls of Congress sniffing for anthrax. What else can we use them for? C-Stores can use Mini Blimps Advertising and Surveillance to prevent Shoplifting. These can be paid for by beer vendors, soda vendors as advertising signs, which float around the store like a pool sweeper around the family pool. It does not have to be a blimp shape, it could very well be any shape such as a giant banana or a football? http://www.bizitairproducts.com/images/thu...mini/mini10.jpg http://www.balloonstomorrow.com/special_shapes.htm Costs paid can be fully paid by the vendors and advertisers. Mini camera equipment can be installed to prevent shoplifting. Perhaps even the new technology of video cell phone projectors can be incorporated where a commercial can be played on the glass of the refrigerator glass cabinets in the store for the purchaser, or perhaps a warning that they must have proper idea to buy anything in this section? These blimps can run on the power of small solar cells on the top of the blimp running from the lights like a solar powered calculator? Or, if that technology is unavailable or not sufficient enough a set of batteries, which are trickle charged off the solar cells, to keep the ion lithium batteries charged. Many universities have been doing maneuverability studies on mini blimps ever sense the Homeland Security made these things more viable with the trend towards indoor bio-safety sensors. Maneuverability studies show these are very viable and with the nano robotics available the mini-blimp might drop suggestive coupons to the purchaser. Mini-blimps and payload dropping or coupon dropping is well within these devices capabilities.

In fact they are about as unique as the many different type of vehicles one is asked to wash. Many vehicles are best cleaned using slightly different techniques. If you own a carwash or a mobile car wash you will need an operations manual to assist your managers in staying efficient. Getting City Contracts; Local Government Contracting All cities have a purchasing office and/or a procurement officer. They handle all city contracts that are sent out to bid. Usually, to become a small business vendor of the city you must satisfy either some or all of the requirements listed below: Is Your Business Legally Prepared? It is imperative to have your business legally prepared. How you ask?

For instance, If John Doe has a businessname as John Doe's Grooming Parlor, a fictious name isn't necessary. The SBAs Savviest Program Forget everything you've ever heard about the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA). The negative connotations may have been warranted in the past, but the SBA is different these days. The SBA is worth every penny of its more than $22 billion budget on the basis of a single program alone: the SBA 504 Loan Program for small business owners who want to acquire or develop their own facilities. How to Start a Pet Transportation Business Pet Transportation Services are needed as the number of pets in the U.S. has grown tremendously over the past few decades. According to the U.S. Pet ownership and Demographics sourcebook, there are an estimated 60 million dogs and 70 million cats in American homes today. Apart from that, households which own pets have been recorded to spend 36% more in 2001 as compared to 1996. With this, owning a business that caters to the pet market, including a pet transportation service has lots of potential for healthy growth. The Perfect Mission Statement One way to determine your companies mission statement is based on a general overview of the company. Some important questions are asked like: Why does the company exist and what kind of business is it in? Is there a particular market or niche that it will concentrate upon? How will the company be distinctive in its business methods? Once these questions are answered, the focus moves to the accomplishment of these broadly expressed objectives. What actions will the company take toward increasing and maintaining profitability, innovation, market standing, or productivity? What financial and physical resources can be depended upon? How will the company oversee and assure manager performance and development while also controlling worker performance and attitudes? In what ways will the public be responsible for determining the success of the company?

Local Government Relations for Small Business Most small businesses simply go about their daily business and serving customers without ever worrying about local government relations. For some it turns out okay but for others it can become a disaster. You never know when a new project down the street may call for new plans to adjust the roads or put in center medians. If you are on a busy road you rely on traffic from both directions. A five-month road project can kill a business and what if it is in your busy season. If you are in retail that could be Christmas Time; imagine half you customers not being able to turn into your driveway? Then imagine after the holidays are over you have to deal with a center median which does not allow cross-over traffic. Or a do not cross over the line sign with a police car enforcing the new laws from your drive way leading into your business? Franchise Buyers Lying On Forms The Federal Trade Commission which governs the franchise industry thru the franchise rule, which enforces Franchise Disclosure laws seems to think that consumers need to be protected even when they lie. Often The FTC takes complaints from consumers who claim they had been ripped off or lied to from someone selling a Biz-OP or some corporation, which sells franchises. The Federal Trade Commission will not admit that at least two-thirds of the incoming complaints are made in falsehood by consumers; as a participant in the industry I can safely say that much misrepresentation comes from the buyers side and not from the sellers. 11 Benefits of Starting a House Cleaning Business One of the biggest fears people have about starting a house cleaning business is the fear of having no real security.
