Look at any fast food restaurant menu board. The stuff you get on the tray sure doesn't look like what's pictured on the menu. I think your client believes in truth in advertising. Do the job. JB

Well, class is finally over and the business plan is 90% complete. A few more days should have my financials in order and life will resume back to some normalcy. A last minute acquisition of my customer’s clients snarled my attempts to get things 100% finished and I learned that when business...

Yep...even without the financial numbers, I can see where I need to realign my efforts to grow and remain profitable. It's amazing what you can begin to see after looking and studying long enough. My biggest problem was settling down long enough to focus on planning without worrying about...

Well, after five years of being in business and six weeks of class (http://fasttrac.org/entrepreneurs/programs/FastTrac-GrowthVenture.aspx), I finally have a written business plan. It’s been a tough row to hoe since I feel like I'm still learning business as a “second language”. My...

As a former teacher, I really appreciate your approach to your career. You're leaps and bounds ahead of the other fellas who struggle make their days meaningful. I'm an "old gun" who's spent the majority of his years in industry. I started my business when I turned 40. And over the past...

This was made back when "fonts" were known as typefaces. Sorry to say, it's more than likely a one-of-a-kind. I wouldn't doubt if the rubylith is probably laying around in somebody's drawer. JB

Perhaps they were in need of fertilizer: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Drit

Here's where it gets a little tricky, so I'll give you the Reader's Digest "military" version: #1) The client (a military branch) had issues over terms with my customer (a veteran). #2) On a subsequent job, the client comes directly to me stating that they still had no resolve with...

I've been mulling that one over. How ironic. The goose that lays the golden egg also craps. Both the egg and the crap exit the same orifice. And believe me, I've been crapped on plenty by this customer over the years. How's that for a barnyard analogy? I came close to firing him earlier...

Dang....no bun size or foot long models are available. JB

Cool...but it looks like a lot of fartin' around in the subway. How about a web site with recurring orders that eliminate the hassle and shoulder to shoulder? How about direct shopping via the smartphone while on the ride home instead of stopping along the way? Two questions: How do you...

My wholesale customer has been struggling for the past two or three years and calls me to let me know he's letting me have all his clients that I had been servicing through him. This aspect of his business had been dragging him away from his more profitable areas and things were beginning to...

Past few days have been almost 20 hrs. each. After hours, if you can call them that, have been spent putting together my business plan and presentation for my FastTrac http://www.fasttrac.org class which ends this Thursday. Jim

Thoughts and prayers from Hillsdale, Michigan are headed your way. God Bless, Jim

Looks like somebody has had way too much time to think. An absolutely dumb idea that will probably sell millions. It's a wonder that Ron Popiel never thought of it. Beware...their credit card order page is not secured. JB

Real low cheap....one money...give or take. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_naLuRykun8 JB

You allowed him to waste too much of your time. Don't let him come back. He might have a good business model though. JB

Welcome...good to see some young blood in the trade. Jim

Sweet & Salty....excellent combination. JB
