  • Innovation – Why the Dinosaurs Need the Pirates
    Recently I read an interview on Larry Page; co-founder of Google, and most of his answers were simply brilliant.

    He speaks a lot about Innovation and the why there needs to be more risk taking behavior in technology.

  • Google – SEO Strategic Partner or Competitor
    Since Google announced its acquisition of DoubleClick, there has been a great deal of angst from SEO Firms and SEO professionals alike. The reason: An SEO Company named Performics was included in the purchase as a part of DoubleClick’s business. SEO companies were concerned that the giant of the industry, Google, would now have a vehicle to unfairly compete with all Internet Marketing Companies by providing “access” to information that is not currently made available to SEO Firms in delivering their Internet Marketing Services to their clients. In addition, there have been many concerns expressed about the cost and price in fear that Google might package, discount or even give away high organic search rankings in special arrangements also not available to competing Search Engine Marketing Companies.

  • A Primer on Office LAN Cabling Systems
    When it comes to thinking about office voice and data local area networks (LANs), chances are most office managers and executives would rather not.
    “LANs by and large are highly reliable infrastructures for keeping staff in contact with each other and, via extranets, with the firm’s customers, suppliers and other publics,” says Mark Bassil, co-founder and vice president of MAiSPACE, a Mt. Olive, NJ, based manufacturer of modular office furniture systems. “Workstation computers, along with printers and other peripherals grow increasingly reliable, and the cabling that connects them with each other and the outside world is capable of handling ever increasing speeds.

  • Custom Chocolate Awards
    Rewarding an individual or group for a job well done, with the perfect item, can be a daunting task. There are hundreds of different products that you can choose which include engraved wooden plaques, custom acrylic awards, medals and embroidered shirts. The problem for the recipient is often finding a place to showcase their award.

  • Commercial Mortgage Interest Rates
    Commercial mortgage interest rates are a combination of the margin that the bank changes and the index that they use. For example if a bank quoted Prime (the index) plus 2% (the margin) you're actual or "effective interest rate" would be 7% (Prime is currently at 5%).

    Lenders use a wide range of indexes. On owner occupant transactions Prime is still very popular and is used much of the time. This is especially true with floating rate loans. The SBA 7a program still uses Prime for example. Commercial investment deals use a broad range of indexes. The treasuries are popular but each individual lender has their preferences. The index used is probably less important for the borrower than the margin that the funding bank uses.
  • SEO Prices – Realities and Myths
    Search Engine Optimization (SEO), the service, and SEO, what you actually get, unfortunately are all too often mutually exclusive to each other. The primary reason for this is confusion in the marketplace of what you are actually paying for. We all understand numbers. But the buyer, the website owner, does not understand what to expect:
  • Asset Based Financing, Alternative Ways of Financing, Large Commercial Real Estate Projects
    Traditional financing provides much needed funding to advance major commercial or other tangible projects, and it is particularly beneficial to companies that plan months in advance. But what happens when funding is required immediately or clients have minimal experience? Asset-based financing can help clients avoid the complexities involved with traditional financing methods.

    The Challenge
    Because of many lenders' strict guidelines, the types of large commercial projects they will finance are limited. These agreements involve formal appraisals, third-party reports and approval from loan committees. In many cases, clients also need previous experience or equity partners to qualify. The approval process is long, complicated and uncertain. Commercial financing may also involve last-minute surprises should the bank or financial institution change terms or pull funding altogether. Even with adequate assets, the project may not garner approval. Worse yet, a bank can call its notes due at any moment, because its lending guidelines may have changed or their investors or regulators may not be satisfied with the lending institution's choice of investments.
  • Adverse Credit Business Loans - Easy Financial Access
    Having a multiple payment fault in a business person's name does not surprise anymore, as more and more such people have such history. Still, they can find adverse credit business loans on internet and pick up a suitable deal as per the terms-conditions. At the same time, it should be admitted that even these especial loans require the borrowers to win the lenders' faith in them.

    This can be done by proving that you are worthy of credit, implying that the business people need to produce all the documents of their trade in order to prove its repayment capability. Take a convincing repayment plan to the lender. As your FICO-score has plunged from acceptable levels of 650, make adequate efforts to first improve it to some extent. Also, take out copies of your credit report for ensuring that it has no errors.
  • Accommodating Computer Density in the Workstation
    Managing horizontal cabling supporting an ever-increasing number of intelligent peripherals at, or accessed from, the workplace can be a challenge for a company’s IT personnel.

  • 90% Commercial Loans - Does This Really Exist?
    Business owners as well as investors are constantly looking for way to increase their rate of return. One of the quickest way to do this in the commercial real estate industry is buy property with as little down as possible.

    However banks and lenders make the rules and dictate what the minimum are for down payments. Currently as of this writing there are really only two viable options for straight 90% commercial loans. And those options are restricted to the SBA and a couple of CMBS lenders that are still in business. These loans are only for business owners and not for investors.

  • Commercial Loan For Your Hotel Property
    Getting a commercial mortgage for a hotel property is very similar to getting a commercial mortgage for an owner occupied commercial property with a few subtle differences. The driving force for the majority of most hotel income is the RevPar or revenue per available room. RevPar is most commonly calculated by multiplying a hotels average daily room rate (ADR) by it occupancy rate and is a key indicator of performance. Rising RevPar is an indication that either occupancy is improving; the ADR is increasing, or a combination of the two.

  • Why I obsess over Web Standards
    I was recently reading an article on how Microsoft dropped the ball on developers and why several of them started to switch over to MAC OS X. Then I realized that the problem with Microsoft is that it represents the global large corporate mentality, mediocrity and lack of innovations. This is why Google is #1 and this is why no matter how much money a large company throws at the small competition, they can’t keep up.
  • The Art of Brokering Commercial Loans
    Doc's Secret # 2: Biggest Mistake of the New Commerical Broker

  • Boost Office Productivity with Smart, Elegant Systems Furniture
    It “2007 Trends Recap” published in December, Today’s Facility Manager noted that “Furniture must always match the needs of the people working in a space, and the trends of 2007 reflected this necessity.” The article reported that there was a time when each employee within an organization had a dedicated work station from which he or she rarely escaped during the workday. This is no longer the case. With wireless technology and an increasing number of people taking advantage of flexible work schedules, the offices of today barely resemble those that existed just 10 years ago.
  • Important Features of Platform Animal Scales
    The most important characteristic of an industrial scale is its technical specifications, including its capacity, its accuracy and its resolution. The second most important characteristic is the user interface. This is what allows the scale users to indicate the information they are looking for, and to have that information presented to them.

    There are a wide variety of industrial scales available for different applications. These include floor scales, platform scales, bench scales, parts counting scales, cylinder scales crane scales, and many others. Most of them are based on the same technology, that is, strain gage load cells. Therefore, the technical specifications are going to be quite similar among the high quality brands, such as Arlyn Scales, among others.
  • To Outsource or not to Outsource? SEO and PPC Most Asked Question!
    It’s a legitimate question and has always been. “Should I outsource my Internet Marketing or do it in house?” In my career of almost 8 years, I’ve been asked this question many times. The answer is; it depends

  • Why Put Your Logo in Chocolate
    In this day and age everyone wants their product or service to stand out amongst the competition. Logo-branding an edible promotional product is one of the many ways to accomplish this. Companies have their names personalized onto practically everything from pens and tee shirts to mugs.

    It is important to understand the process behind commercial loan processing to gain an insight into how a financing institution assesses and decides on whether or not a loan is granted.

  • Commercial Loan Applications for Small Businesses Hit a Low

When this happens small businesses feel the pain as much or more than large corporations.

Long is gone the build it and they will come framework, if it even existed. But as the internet evolves, there are still thousands upon thousands of websites still thinking in a backwards theory.

Unfortunately this is not the case.For every 1 success story, there are at least 100 unsuccessful ventures which have not seen the promised millions. And on the internet, it is not different. In fact the ease of setting up a website has only multiplied the failure rate.

  • The Genesis of an Internet Marketing Company

The company had achieved varying degrees of success as I was told during the late 90’s during the boom and ultimate bust phase of the internet industry. In 2001, the company morphed into a franchising company that would provide services through a central location for franchisees who would develop local relationships with businesses seeking internet services.
