Whats a good web design amp; start up business for mobile hairdresser? -

I agree with Team Modify, godaddy is one of the best (and cheapest) providers. They have site builders that will help you design your own webpage. There are other options, but most experienced folks will really push godaddy. For a review of web hosting companies, you can visit www.probusinessreview.com/Web_Hosting.ht�� As a value-add response, I should suggest that a mobile hairdresser, you might also want to consider other productivity software (they re cheap, trust me). For example, you can have your calls answered by an electronic receptionist and forwarded to your cell phone to a voicemail box that would be converted to text and sent by e-mail. Same with faxes (if you ever needed to have fax capability). This would allow you literally enjoy the benefits of being mobile, allowing you to access your business from your phone while you travel from one location to another.

Buy Web Easy at Office Depot, With this you don t even need to know HTMLYou can do any type of website you want.A good cheap host is Parcom.com... I pay $50.00 year + 10.00 for my domain name.

Hair Today-Gone Tomorrow....lol.......what a great idea....best of luck...

Custom fees from United States to Spain? -

Anyone know how much the custom fee on a 2 lb package from Philly to Barcelona would be. UPS can t tell me until Monday. Thanks.

Depends on the nature of the goods, on the value and on whether the goods are new or not. There is a good chance that there won t be anything at all to pay.

How do I start my own internet business? -

I have an idea, and I know I need to purchase a domain name, but what else do I need to do. Please tell me in dummy simple steps.

You can try a completely free home based online business.

Do as much research into the arena of your idea as you can and ask people who already own or run their own business as many questions as possible. Find out what s involved at the start and how much you would need to get your idea off the ground. If you need to raise capital, get some advice and when you feel you can put a plan together, approach some banks or lenders to see what you might be able to borrow. Try to get as much feedback from the the business owners you meet though, as they re the ones who have already walked the path before you and can point out pitfalls and things you should aim to achieve. If it s an invention or unique idea, try to get it patented so it can t be stolen/copied by others.Hope that helps!

An internet business is a business that uses the internet as one of its advertising means. Start the business - as a business. To put it on the internet you need a domain name, a web host (unless you re prepared to host it on your own computer) and, oh, yes, the ability to develop a website, or the money to pay someone else to do it.(The dot bomb should have taught us all that on the internet doesn t do a thing for a business that not on the internet lacks. Just putting a business on the web won t make it successful.)

There is no quick answer to what you re asking. Starting an internet business takes some considerable know-how. I run several successful internet business and I am one of the internet marketing trainers at www.internetmarketing.comI have coached over a 1,000 people in how to start internet businesses, both in person and on the phone. The #1 reason people fail at internet business ventures is that they do not understand how to successfully pick a target audience.Before doing ANYTHING you should research your market. Don t bother building a website or finding a domain until you have proven to yourself that there is a market for what you plan on doing. You will waste a lot of time and money if you do not follow that one piece of advice.The secret to making money online is to target the right audience with the right message. If your audience doesn t exist or you don t know how to target them, your internet business venture is doomed.

What are good but free work at home jobs? -

im trying to find a job where i can stay at home and do stuff to keep my house picked up and concentrate on school. I need a job online and at home!

Online jobs are not myths, but you will have difficulty doing it for free if you don t know anything about the business already. If you re serious about working online, I would suggest checking out a great internet marketing forum like www.WarriorForum.comThe people there are awesome and have helped me out tremendously. I have no affiliation to this site besides being a member there myself. I just signed up about a month ago and I wish I would have know about it when I started Internet Marketing 3 years ago!Kevin

Do you know that you can make money from blogging. I came across a website that shares the various way to make money from a blog.

I ve never seen one that was free. But, a lot of them will offer a money back guarantee. That s a good way to review it and see if it s something you would be interested in doing. Hope this helps!

Sorry, those jobs are myths. You ll have to get a job out in the world.

Employee asking for raise despite poor performance ?!? -

My employee asking for raise despite poor performance .I told him i dont understand on what basis u are seeking increment !!we had promised small increments every 3 months ,(it was obvious tht would be based on his performance.) two months back , he pushed us to give him some raise....and we promised to give performance after 2 months ...but his performance did not improve ...project are in very bad shape...but he returned salary...i refused to take ...he said plz keep......i am not feeling well....i keep telling him how our client is getting mad ...but he is oblivious to that.!!!!

This is an employee who is manipulating you.Simple as it sounds, put everything in writing. Put it on paper. List positives and negatives. Ie., you helped us with ____. However, client was angry that time when you ____________. Maintain a matter-of-fact, objective attitude as you analyze his performance. Stay forever calm and principled and stick to the high road.And stick to a schedule--reviews are only to happen when they re scheduled to happen. He shouldn t be nagging you the way he is, he s only putting a noose around his neck by doing so. He SHOULD be focusing on making relations better with you and with the customers.Give him warning but be prepared to fire him if he doesn t shape up. Ask yourself, How much is this employee worth to my company? Firing him might be a wake-up call for him. His life might be better for it.Always put principles first.

Most people believe there is a strong relationship between job satisfaction and job performance.A happy employee is a good employee.Companies are looking for ways to make their employees more productive.But Employees aremore interested in appraisal rather than good work.To raise your performance firstly you should be fully satisfied with your work then only you can perform better and the chances of raise will be much.

I would say to give him a one month shape up preformance review. If he his holding back your company, with the way the economy is, you can find someone that will work hard for what he is making now. If he works well during this time period then he can get a raise, if not then he can find another job. He is obviously holding back operations.

I ve been in situations like this and it is frustrating. Don t get angry about it, but tell him in a very straightforward way that his performance simply does not merit you giving him a raise. You may want to add that he is lucky to have a job given his performance.

You re the boss, don t give him a raise. If you give him a raise even though he has poor performance, it will just make him think he can slack off and get more money.I would fire him if it gets worse.

this does not compute. he is being unreasonable.

First, as you have found, it is not obvious to many people that you must perform to receive a pay increase. You say you promised a pay increase every three months but based on what? Just length of service? Your promise may or may not be considered a verbal contract, more likely to be one if that is the policy you follow with all your employees. Here are some steps that may help.First, review your policy on raises. Is it perfectly clear how and when it works? Do your employees have a clear understanding of what good performance is?Second, have a sit down with this employee. Let him know you are concerned about the situation and about him. Lay out very clearly what your expectations are for him and for all associates. If the time is right go ahead and review the previous discussions you have had with him and then review his performance and make it plain as day what he needs to do to get more pay. Make sure both of you understand it is nothing personal, that it is simply about treating everyone fairly and equally. Third, if you haven t already, start documenting the performance and the discussions you have had and are having and include the date. If you have a formal system of counseling/verbal and written warnings etc. make sure you are using it. If not start one...this may help you in the future. What you need to do is establish, for yourself, that this associate has a clear understanding of what the rules are, what they are doing wrong and what they need to do to improve their performance. Once you are comfortable with that progress through your written warnings etc. until termination in the clear end result. I feel your pain, experienced this a lot myself and every time I am caught off guard for a second. When someone asks you for a raise out of the cycle of normal reviews it is very difficult. Often, though it is due to a personal financial problem but it can be because of other things (so an so got a raise and I do more than them). As you go through this remember others associates are watching and taking in how well or poorly you handle the situation. So, don t discuss it with others and make sure you are being fair to them as well. Good luck....load up on the Advil!
