Just the other day, I had a client ask me about records retention. And, as I prepared to answer her query, I realized that a lot of you probably have the same questions. So….

Tools of the Trade
About half my efforts are spent working with lawyers, physicians, and other professionals. They are among my client base since they rely upon the proprietary software and business smarts that they obtain from us to run their businesses. But (unfortunately?), not all of these type of folks employ our services. And, I’m amazed at what I see when I examine new clients’ business systems.
Entrepreneurship and Venture Capital
There’s an old joke. One most entrepreneurs clearly understand. I’ve called it the entrepreneurial curve.
Wanna get rich- quick?
Oh, Roy, not another article about the 1%. Well, yes, this is just that. How can you not discuss this teeny group that owns 1/2 of the wealth that obtains in the world? Read that again. 1% of the population owns 50% of the wealth.
Let’s grow a new one
The entrepreneurial spirit. It is alive and well- even if the potential rewards are attenuated. And, I’m honored to be able to help those on their journey, their quest to prove a new concept, a new methodology, a new operational mode.

Do you know your corporate culture?
If you are like me, then you certainly do. You also are involved in doing what makes your company great, not sitting back and watch (oh, wait- “manage”) what others do. (You may want to refer back to yesterday’s post about leadership development.)

Do you ever get tired hearing businesses claim that, “People are our more important assets”? I sure have. But, the key point is – it’s true! Unless you’ve seen a company that spits out widgets from a robotic factory, it’s the people that make things happen. (There are no totally robotic factories- yet. There are robot-assisted entities, but those factories still need people.) And, if the company is a service business, then it’s all people, all the time.
The Supreme Court Decisions- and Restaurants
Friday,(link here) I discussed a slew of SCOTUS (Supreme Court of the United States) decisions afforded us by the Roberts’ Court- the most pro-business (read “Big Business”) Supreme Court ever. Well, here is a case they just decided, that small businesses can overturn without going to court- by using public opinion against one specific Big Business.

We’re going to go paperless…REALLY!
Why should you go paperless? There are so many reasons. The first and primary reason is that everyone has access to the documents they need- even if they are not in the office. The second is that documents can be easily password protected and backed up- where they can be found. (How would you protect a paper document in a file? Lock the file?)
