Everything changes when you sharing your desktop for laptop and desktop to the hotel room.
Sometimes this is for the best: You are released from your cabin and free to go wherever your business takes you.
But sometimes things change for the worse. Productivity suffers when you're in an unfamiliar place. How laptop keyboard cramps, sometimes your hands enough to prevent you from doing a job well done.
Here are four technologies "must haves" - the mobile office, as well as tools that can improve productivity when you're away.
• the right software
Not only download the laptop or PDA applications necessary, since they are also suitable if the mobile office programs. Is a program that your e-mail to build a road or adapted from the greater use of means to a corporate network? Programs are working together on your laptop or it does not freeze when it gets busy your CPU?
And these considerations can become major problems when traveling. This is something Tab Stone, a physician in Los Angeles, and knows very well. Software installation is a new e-mail on your laptop before leaving her recent trip, but not suitable for mobile use. He had to cancel shortly before takeoff, but disabled the e-mail backup. Means that you can not download messages to your computer. "I could not repair what has been spoiled by the fresh batch copy or downloaded from the Internet," recalls Peter.
: Contact management software allows you to merge data with your PDA, you can download and synchronize contacts, appointments, and notes on your Palm Pilot or Pocket PC. There is also a copy on the internet for travelers who lose or their own laptop or prefer to work from the office to their destination.
What is the next step? Find More integration between applications for wireless users. Contact Managers are already assuming the role of the e-mail and address book database. The next step is making it more accessible to people who use mobile phones or PDAs.
• substantive law
I'm not talking about having your new laptop. I'm talking about devices that have created life on the road. Let's face it: not done, and there are many tools that enhance mobile professionals with travelers in mind. For example, a flight attendant offered useful if the battery is low mobile Joachim Martin ran on a recent flight to relax in the port "secret" to the rear of the plane. "The batteries charged," remembers a software developer. "But it was when I got home, dead." Was the power supply must be replaced. Blame the airlines, and the manufacturer of the battery or even businessmen unfortunate not to know better, but this kind of thing happens often. Plugs the phone does not always correspond, not to sockets. And a large number of tools and rely on passenger hostile, impractical or both.
Update: Some hardware manufacturers and meet passenger demand for Families with hardware additions such as the Stowaway XT keyboard. I was also impressed by the Mini optical mouse Microsoft, which frees you from the constraints of the index cramps your laptop.
What is the next step? As the convergence between mobile phones, computers and PDAs continues, it would not surprise me to see devices that offer cozy comfort for your desktop computer with the possibility of a PDA. Not come too soon for many mobile users.
• Communications Law
The contacts are all mobile office.
Remember Peter, a physician e-mail? It has finally reached its messages via the network connection is not practical. Spencer Field, who recently returned from a trip to Melbourne, also ask about the problems of e-mail. I learned that when they arrived that the number of dial-up to the owner of an Internet service provider (ISP) have failed. "I thought it was probably the end of my access to the Internet," he said. "As a result of an effort last chance, let me do my fingers on and pulling Melbourne Yellow Pages for local ISP. " Found one and signed up for an e-mail a month, which gives access to local numbers throughout its program.
It is not only the issue of Internet connections, but also to connect other devices such as mobile phones, PDAs and laptops. Technologies such as Bluetooth allows you to communicate with other devices in the office or hotel room without the need for cables.
Update: According to a recent study by AT & T, and the main obstacle to work from a remote location is access to broadband data. Fast wireless networks spread everywhere - in hotels, airport lounges and cafes. Although Bluetooth has been a slow start, and the concept behind it - which is losing son - is fundamentally sound.
What is the next step? It will not be long before Wi-Fi and cellular coverage everywhere as the majority of devices supporting Bluetooth technology. This is good news for those of us who work in the mobile office.
• Web applications right
Web applications are extremely important for mobile office, I decided to give them their own category, even though they technically belong to the "programs". Internet is one of the most effective ways for mobile workers access to back-office system, intranet or database.
My ISP provides a rudimentary application that allows me to check my e-mail from the Web. I do not remember how many times I've had to use it because of the failure of the program my email is working properly. But I remember the last time. Suspended in a meeting outside the city and e-mail account was attacked my junk mail - thousands of spam - which would have taken hours to download. Instead, I am connected to the Internet and delete all in a few seconds. If it was not for the web application, and I would be more likely to download spam.
Update: One of the most innovative Web applications is GoToMyPC, which gives you access to the desktop in your home or office through the Internet. Another useful application for mobile users are conference services on the network, such as Microsoft Office LiveMeeting.
What is the next step? Expect these applications become cheaper and more reliable and sophisticated.

4 Classic cold connection errors
Have you noticed that the old "proven" cold calling techniques that have been successful once had completely lost their effectiveness over the years? They no longer work.
But many sellers are still using them because that's all you know. They work, it is effective cold calling old mentality. And they make the same mistakes again and again.
I would like to talk about 4 cold calling mistakes of the old classic traditional approach, which will put you on the wrong track if you're not careful.
1. Delivered a solid, not enthusiastic sales
People are almost always "pay" by sales of Hamas, especially when it comes from someone they do not know.
You see, a strong sales pitch, including tacit assumption that the product or service is an ideal choice for someone else. But think about it. Was much unless you talk to them before a conversation. You may not know much perhaps at this stage.
Them, and you're just a salesperson wants them to buy something. Thus, the walls go up.
It is much better to take small you know very little about your prospect. Invited to share some of their concerns and challenges you. And allow them to steer the conversation instead of your strategy before ordination or height.
2. Your goal is to always make the sale
When cold calling your target is always to make the sale, the prospects of achieving your agenda. Almost immediately, they are on the defensive. After all, you're primarily focused on yourself as you are, and sell - not them.
In the old traditional mindset, you advance the hope of getting a sale. You convince, persuade and move forward.
But most cold calls pause for a moment the other person feels this pressure sales.
Why? Because they do not know you, and they do not believe you.
Thus, the commercial dynamism that you try to create a game in fact lead to skepticism and resistance. They try to protect themselves against the "intruder" potential with what they see as a program for their own benefit.
Instead, you can approach cold calling different view. Maybe your goal to find out if you are able to solve the problem to someone else.
When you become solver, and it feels very different from the person to whom you speak. You do not release. You connect to 100 percent of your thoughts and energy focused on their needs, rather than focusing on making a sale.
3. Focus on the end of the conversation - and that's when the sales are lost
If you think you lose sales because you made a mistake at the end of this process, you are looking in the wrong direction. He added that most of the errors at the beginning of cold calling conversation.
You see, it is first of all to provide you if you are honest and trustworthy. If you started your cold call with a pressure sales pitch high, then you've probably lost the other in a few seconds.
When you follow a sales script, strategy, or a presentation, then you can not trust natural conversation in evolution. And had a "problem" instead of your first. And therefore a place to put all your attention at the beginning of cold calling, and not the end.
4. Face and overcome all objections
Programs more traditional sales spend a lot of time with a focus on overcoming objections. But these tactics only put more pressure on your sales prospect, which is called resistance. And also you do not understand or to explore the truth behind what is said.
When you hear "We do not have a budget," or "Call me in a few months", you can find out the truth by replying, "and this is not a problem."
And then, using gentle, dignified language, you can invite them to discover the truth about their situation.
Stay away from the sale of the old mentality and try this new way of approaching your cold calling. You'll find yourself to be more natural, and others will respond to you in a more positive way.

3 mistakes cold calls that result in the rejection
Here are 3 common cold communication techniques that should be avoided without doubt
Centre for Dialogue about yourself and what you have to offer: Mistake # 1
In the former approach, you introduce yourself, explain what you do, and refers to a profit or benefit of your product. Then close your eyes and pray that the other person is interested
Unfortunately, just stop talking normally hear: "Sorry, I'm busy" or "Sorry, I'm not interested."
As you can see, you started your cold call by talking about your world and what you have to offer. But in reality, most people are not interested in you. When you talk about your company and your product, it's just a statement. You do not conflict with each other so often just "open a new page."
Prospects are more interested in themselves and what is important to them. So if you start the conversation by focusing on their world, and they are more likely to interact with you.
Instead, talk about the issue or problem that may require a solution. Focus on them instead of focusing on what you have to offer. And see where it takes you.
Mistake # 2: Be confident they should buy your product or service
In the mentality of the old cold calling, and I was taught you to concentrate on sales and be absolutely sure that what you are offering something the other person should buy.
The problem with this approach is that you have not asked to identify this with you. I think that's about it - in the old mentality, and you really have to decide for someone else what is good for them. I know this is not expected, but that's exactly what comes across your expectations.
Thus, instead of being full of confidence and enthusiasm, and stop for a minute and think about the other person. Relax in a real conversation instead of going to a convincing strategy or sales pitch. Put yourself in their place and invite them to explore whether what you have to offer is a match for them.
Others may really distinguishes the difference. I invite them to see if you might be able to help solve the problem. This makes for a much better connection from the beginning, and you get a reaction immediately rejected much lower.
Mistake # 3: When someone objected, in an attempt to overcome
You know, one of the reasons cold calling is very difficult is that in some cases may not be very familiar with the other person and their business. When you first call, you do not know much about their problems and issues, budget and time constraints.
Chances are, not everyone will benefit from the product or service.
Very realistic, your company or your product is not a game for everyone. Even now, when someone has an objection ("We do not have a budget for it," etc.), and the mentality of being cold calling old were you "beat", "bypass" or "circumvent ".
But you put to make the other person on the defensive. And denied that anything I said. Here can occur very suddenly refused.
So, it is much better to listen to their concerns and continue to explore whether what you propose makes sense for them. There are some wonderful sentences that you can use to validate their viewpoint without closing the conversation.
So now you have discovered the coldest three mistakes that people often use. See if you can get out of these old mindsets self-sabotage. When you do, you will notice that the people you will be more involved, and refused to immediately put you in the habit of spending a lot less.

"When you give forecasts on" silent treatment "
If you've been selling for some time, you've probably at least one experience in your prospect who suddenly began allowing you to "silent treatment."
Anthony described this dilemma very impressive when he called me a few weeks ago:
"Ari, I do not know what to do when you get hit with the" silent treatment "- you know, when I was working with the potential for a good time, and we had talks big and interesting they have expressed in our solution - and then suddenly, he stopped everything.
I try to remember once or twice. I send even follow-up e-mail, but nothing. Simply disappear. I think I lost sale, and I do not know what I did wrong, or what should be done next. It makes me feel like sales painful and difficult process. '
If this has happened to you, I felt anxiety and confusion. You can be yourself and said: "It's not as if I'm the only person who did something wrong. I put everything in a relationship. How can I save a sale if you can not even get them to talk to me?"
And "Hopeium" Trap
There is a way to re-establish the connection without pressure when your prospect starts giving you "the silent treatment." But first, it is important to understand why the situation happened in the first place.
That most of us get caught in the sale of "hopeium", a term that means comic concentrate our hopes and desires to complete the sales process. Hopeium but could be a trap, because it is impossible for you to keep in mind your most important goal: finding the truth about your prospect.
When we focus on the result - make the sale - start automatically to predict how the process will continue, and we are also beginning to expect that things will go as we hope that you will.
But if we are in this situation from the perspective of the mind and breaks suddenly Communications, we lost, and frustration worried, confused and frustrated. We are concerned about what happened.
May feel so betrayed.
Is it possible to unravel the mystery?
Yes, and abandon your agenda and find out the truth about where you stand with your prospect - and be fine with whatever the truth may be. "But how do I know the truth when they avoid me?" You might ask. "Why do I need to give up for sale?"
Take the second question.
If you approach your prospect while I still hope sale will happen, and will introduce sales pressure in the relationship. This push your prospect away from you, and destroy any confidence that put them. Instead, you can eliminate the sales pressure by telling them that you agree with their decision if you decide not to proceed.
In other words, you can take a step back instead of trying to hunt and follow up with phone calls because you are focused on getting "yes."
The bottom line is:
When he gives you the possibility of "silent treatment" that does not mean you've lost the sale. This simply means that you do not know the truth yet.
What you need to do is call and find out the truth.
Why the truth so important?
Here are 4 important reasons:
1. Stop the loss of confidence in your ability to sell. And "silent treatment" that threatens our "hopeium". Begin to blame. We do not know where we are - a painful vacuum. Our self-talk is negative and full of self-blame, and we on tenterhooks whether he was still selling will come through one way or another.
2. You can increase the efficiency of sales and reduce the level of tension. Once you know the truth about the case of your prospect, you can either stay or participate in perspective on the move. I often say: "A" no "is almost the value of" yes "" Why? Because it frees up your time to find prospects who are the best fit with your solution. This allows you to work much more efficiently because you can quickly eliminate prospects who do not buy. Know the truth from the perspective that allows you to get away without a whisper guilt-inducing voice, "If you give up, you do not have what it takes."
Know the truth about your prospect translate into concrete results on the real opportunities of the dollar. You can also turn off the pressure that comes from self-sabotage Hay "silent treatment" limbo.
3. Pressure to pay sales prospects away. When you reply to a "silent treatment" with calls and e-mail messages, you really say that you are committed to pushing forward sales process - which means that you need to your needs, and they do not have. This makes the lack of trust between you and works in the other direction.
4. And "silent treatment" - completely break the communication - is how to protect against pressure sales forecasts when you do not feel comfortable telling us the truth. The more we press, and more running.
But the reverse is also true. We are more relaxed, and inviting the right, the more they will be with us. Prospects feel comfortable sharing what is happening with them when they know that we agree with the hearing.
How communication open
Anthony said after and talked about some of these questions, "All of this makes much sense, I see, but I still do not know what to say when I call."
It's easier than you think.
* First, give your prospect simply call. (E-mail, voice mail is very personal, so use it only as a last resort if you can not reach your prospect after several phone calls.)
* Second, take responsibility and apologize because it caused the "silent treatment."
Here are some languages, suggested to Anthony that will make prospects feel safe enough to open and tell the truth about their situation:
"Hello, Jim, this is Anthony. First I want to call and apologize We ended up not being able to connect. Feel that somewhere along the way could've dropped the ball, or I do not have to give the information you need. I do not ask for completion things because I had taken on the assumption perhaps with someone shot someone else, and this is absolutely correct, and I check to see if you can get information on where you can improve the next time. "
When you reply to a "silent treatment" in this way, the results will probably surprise you. You can even learn that the prospect has legitimate reasons for not returning to you.
You can also find more productivity and less frustration. It will make a world of difference in the level of productivity, and your stress level, and your income, how much you appreciate what you do.

"The disadvantages of a business partnership 50/50 stock."

Once you undoubtedly Economic Affairs and Industry modify the variables that affect the company. Each partner must be aware of the direction in which to change business as well. There are constant decisions mixture of product offerings and services ... Decision to enter into another business or leave it. Emphasis should be placed on increasing volume and low profit model profit margins, or vice versa? What is the transition to a more intense form of capital. If the work is successful, the number of times potential investors in the crawl, the owners of the project investor or capitalist. Both partners must agree on the proposed investment.
What if a partner acquires an asset for the company both in the ground, a building, a small data center and servers A, or to further complicate things contribute to a kind of intellectual property.

"Changes" to help you in good times or bad
Six months ago, the economy was booming. Stock prices rise, interest rates are still low, and unemployment is falling. A few months later, all these indicators in opposite directions. Now it is difficult to tell from day to day where we are.
I am optimistic that the current situation is likely short-term and long-term growth of the good times. But this does not mean that it will not deep dips and in some cases, along the way. The question is: Have you ever put it to take advantage of the good and bad times in the review?
It is expected that as well as others. Fortunately, there are "changes" that you can take that will serve you well on both.
1. Get out of debt. The sooner the better. You can not take advantage of opportunities when you're mired in debt. There are opportunities in good times and bad. In both cases, debt prevents you from taking advantage of the opportunities that arise. Poor, it magnifies the negative, and the cost of funds and increasing debt service become part of the more than your expenses.
2. Think globally. We can not allow ourselves to think and act locally. We need a broader
Vision. We need to think about how our call, our company and our industry operates in the global economy - they already have.
3. Entrepreneurship. This is the era of free agency. And even if we must intend to continue to work in a large company or organization at least thinking like an entrepreneur. Should be "in the business." The seniority and experience does not have the value it has. - Achieving results and profits - is what matters.
4. Become capitalism. Pledged assets, liabilities and the rest - things that cost money to own and maintain. Capitalism is not a dirty word. A capitalist, by definition, is a person who holds assets - assets that produce income. Securities, equipment, and companies are assets that generate income. In America, and 80 percent of all the millions of self-made. Be one of them.
5. Be flexible. Things are changing at a rapid pace. This requires the ability to adapt. Things remain the same, and return to the way it used to be. We must be willing to change direction quickly. It's time to weave and dodge. It is time to accept the change. Transformation happen!
I am optimistic that the current situation is likely short-term and long-term growth of the good times. But this does not mean that it will not deep dips and in some cases, along the way. The question is: Have you ever put it to take advantage of the good and bad times in the review?
It is expected that as well as others. Fortunately, there are "changes" that you can take that will serve you well on both.
1. Get out of debt. The sooner the better. You can not take advantage of opportunities when you're mired in debt. There are opportunities in good times and bad. In both cases, debt prevents you from taking advantage of the opportunities that arise. Poor, it magnifies the negative, and the cost of funds and increasing debt service become part of the more than your expenses.
2. Think globally. We can not allow ourselves to think and act locally. We need a broader
Vision. We need to think about how our call, our company and our industry operates in the global economy - they already have.
3. Entrepreneurship. This is the era of free agency. And even if we must intend to continue to work in a large company or organization at least thinking like an entrepreneur. Should be "in the business." The seniority and experience does not have the value it has. - Achieving results and profits - is what matters.

"Starbucks in China" Blend: A Slam Dunk Grand
Certainly, there are some real "do not miss" proposals., But I have one for you, Starbucks in China. Mastodons which granted carte blanche in a totalitarian environment are reminiscent of the era of kings during the exclusive licensing trapping. Starbucks and the product, and relationships, and with some smart campaigns have marks all over in no time. Sera game, set and match - if you do not already have.
China is an emerging economic power in the world today, but it is not free of all foreign companies. Many companies in America and elsewhere, and maintain to be just the opposite. China has earned the reputation of being lax in its implementation rather than intellectual property laws. Technology companies in particular, such as Microsoft, have been frustrated to see their achievements pirated in China. You can add golf club manufacturers, record labels and movie studios, and many industries the injured list.
Then there are Starbucks, our giant American caffeinery. I am looking for a franchise now ICMediaDirect.com my office in the Empire State Building. It is always busy, filled with tourists. Did you know that there is an excess of the Great Wall of China? Did you know that Starbucks has announced the opening of one of their stores in the Forbidden City in Beijing, China anger? Resisted at first, but soon got used to it? (I think the Chinese are just like everyone else.)
Why Calloway Golf Starbucks in order to do such acts? A product that can not be replicated, and that's what. You can not fake coffee beans in bulk. It is the cornerstone upon which ensures the success of Starbucks in mainland China. Announced CEO, Howard Schultz, and China have "number one priority" in terms of growth.
Schultz and Starbucks are not shy about their Chinese ambitions. Currently, they have about 11,000 stores in 37 countries, including about 375 in China. In 2008 Starbucks expects to derive 20% of its turnover on Chinese websites. Starbucks has a long-term goal of 30,000 stores and about 8,000 in China.
It is the rise of huge proportions really. Remember, China, maybe the name, the communist country. Although some of the economic policies of communism has fallen by the wayside, and the ministers in Beijing clung firmly to their authority. Full board at Starbucks, and green lights, and the red carpet and welcome wagons - the works. This is not because they think the CEO is a nice guy, but their products may not be copied channels and everything can.
I could babble all day about it, but there is increasing evidence that the fix is in the name of the coffee chain based in Seattle. In recent weeks Starbucks has won not one, but two lawsuits in China to protect intellectual property. I decided that some enterprising people, and certainly practitioners, residents and copy elements of Starbucks brand and serve their fellow citizens. No dice. Chinese courts have ruled in favor of Starbucks.
I wonder if local roaster thought he had a chance? Chinese judge refused to think long and hard about the benefits of each side was different? Ministers of Economy and Beijing curious about how this would matter? There was no drama. The realization of such a CEO Schultz did not refer openly to these noble goals of success in countries like China, without knowing that he could not reach it in advance. Beijing people love them, or, like the income they generate.
It reminds me of a book I recently read on the infamous pirate Captain Kid. In short, the English crown hired Kidd pirate fleets theft for profit. Sea, turn the winds of political change to a certain extent and it has become a scapegoat - his "trial" was a farce. Payment of the forces that must be quick conviction and Kidd with his life. Maybe the stakes are not as high, but the result was just as is the case when China confirmed ruled in favor of Starbucks against local imitations.
Ok, so has the quality of Starbucks coffee and international distribution channels down, they had obtained the approval of the gold in Beijing, and now all you have to do is convince the country with 5000 years of drinking tea experience, there is something new, something different - so-called coffee. This calls for a brand.
China moving towards Westernization, or capitalist economy. Desire and expectations of the consumer society based on making this easier than Starbucks, and in particular the competition is negligible. With appropriate offers reached in Beijing, it was time for Starbucks to sell to the Chinese people. Here's how you win:
• Demographic targeting young Chinese storage sites in urban areas, and to propose practical and social status - a welcome break from the close apartments.
• The Starbucks as centers of Internet users, where socializing and downloading music will play a central role in the Starbucks experience. And advertising agencies such as ICMediaDirect.com will be held seasonal online campaigns (similar to last season's campaign Christmas Red Cup in the United States) to Starbucks chain link with the hip. Media such as crossing downloading music and entertainment sites will be crucial.
• The awareness of consumers who are new to capitalist cultures (do not go, actually) emerging in China that are similar to Russia. Will change and drinking coffee brands across media with government support, and we will strongly promote the idea.
I pay equity. I do not preach politics. I'm not looking for justice or defending oppressors. But there's one thing I know - Starbucks can not miss.
