I hope your week has gone well!
Hello again, It’s Jim Gras, back again with your Retire Today Online home business newsletter.
Tell me.....
Do You Need Staff?
When your business grow large enough you may have to consider the fact that you can't do everything that needs to be done by yourself. You need to hire some help.
Did you know that employing people is like investing? You invest the cost of the wages and you get a return on your investment by getting more work done. If you stop getting a return on your investment then you need to start investing in someone else.
The first step in hiring a staff is to advertise. You shouldn't have too much trouble with this part, since there are always people looking for a good job. Look online, check out a few agencies or tell some people you know. Once you have a few takers you can start interviewing.
Remember when you start interviewing that you are looking for someone to not only make your life easier, you also want someone capable of increasing your bottom line. You don't want to spend a lot on your investment if you aren't going to get a good return.
Ask some basic questions so that you can get a feel for their personalities. You want to work with someone who is personable, competent and reliable. Start out simple.
- Tell me about yourself? The response to this simple question will give you a good idea about their personality what they think is important, as well as some insight to their ability .
- Why should I hire you? This will give you a good idea of how confident they are in their ability to do the job. Have them explain how they will meet your job requirements.
- Why did you leave your last job? This will give you a feel for how they view their past employers. This will also help you spot potential problems. If they use excuses or complaints then you may want to put them at the bottom of your pile.
As an employer you have the right to ask any questions that will help you find the right person for the job. Just remember by law, you can't ask as anything that could be thought of as discrimination, including questions related to age, race, religion, nationality, marital status, medical history or disability.
One last note. When you hire people, you need to remember that you have to pay taxes. You will more than likely have to pay their income taxes as well as medical insurance taxes. Make sure you check your local tax laws. Or better yet check with an accountant who can help you.
Take care, and we'll see you next week!

Every morning I have a ritual.
First, I wake up... usually while it's still dark outside... to the smell of fresh coffee. (I have one of those coffee makers with a timer that turns itself on and automatically brews a pot of java goodness for me.)
Then, I roll out of bed and stumble into the kitchen with my sidekick, my cat Missy.
I pour myself a cup of java in my lucky mug I got from my Granddaughters, head into my home office, and turn on my computer to check my emails with Missy lying on my lap.
That's it. It's simple, and it's been my morning ritual for YEARS.
But NOW, something shocking has happened...
I opened up my inbox, puffy eyed and coffee mug in hand, and what I saw almost knocked me sideways --

Now up to this point, business had been good.
But this morning was the "tipping point" that propelled my business from good to *great*... and by great, I mean making money hand over fist!
And it was stupid easy.
A lot of people try and make this more complicated than it really is. But if you know the right strategies, it's actually VERY simple. And the best part? YOU CAN DO IT TOO!
To find out how I did it, go here now: http://www.prosperitycastnetwork.com

Hello again, It’s Jim Gras, back again with your Retire Today Online home business newsletter!,
Wow! We've been moving a mile a minute around here.
I hope you're doing well!
Today we're going to talk about the Handling Financial Strain
When you start a home business it's easy to get carried away by all your new responsibilities like keeping your customers happy, managing expenses building your business. All of this can be very stressful and most home business owners simply ignore this and keep on going. But that is not always the best idea.
Many people get stressed out and upset a shortly after they start their own business and quit their day job. They feel like they gave up their financial stability and start to regret the decision.
If this starts to happen to you the best thing you can do is step back and remember the reasons that you started you business. Go over your business plans and reaffirm your ability to make your business a success. Remember you knew this was going to be hard on you financially when you started so it's no excuse to call it quits.
One thing you can do is keep good records. Not knowing exactly what your financial situation is can be the most stressful part of running your own home business. I know you might think you don't want to know, but when you leave it to your imagination that is when things really start to get out of control. If you know exactly where you stand you will feel more control over the situation. The simplest way to keep records for yourself is to use an accounting program like QuickBooks or even just a simple spreadsheet.
Don't give in to the stress. When you feel stressed out your first thought may be to hide under the covers and ignore whatever it is that is stressing you out. By hiding you will only make your situation worse. By facing it head on you will feel stronger and more competent to make your business a success.
When you run a home business, you might have to make a few sacrifices or sell a few things to make it through the tough times, but I guarantee you that you will find it is the most rewarding adventure of your life if you stick it out and make it a success. Check Out The Prosperity Cast Network to help your Handling of all your Financial Strain
We appreciate you! Take care,
