Good news on employment

Last Friday’s employment report (for the month of November) swung 180 degrees in the right direction ... posting a huge, positive surprise of only 11,000 jobs lost last month.

The details are encouraging ...

In addition to fewer than expected layoffs last month, September and October were also revised HIGHER by a total of 159,000 jobs!

The average work week rose to 33.2 hours last month, up from 33 in October — not a big jump — but certainly a step in the right direction.

Temporary agency em… Continue

GOOD economic news from around the USA.

To kick off this week, gains in new orders were the highlight of November's Chicago purchasers' report. Chicago's PMI rose nearly 2 points to 56.1 to indicate another strong month-to-month increase in the pace of overall business activity in that area of the country. New orders rose 1.4 points to a very strong 62.8. The Chicago survey includes both service and manufacturing segments of the economy in its report.

Tuesday showed a continued rebound for the auto sales even in the absence of govern… Continue

Facing failure in business.

A friend sent an article written by a motivational speaker, dealing with failure in business.

He made this statement:

" I am going to go so far as to say if you have failed and it did not hurt bad... you did not try hard enough.

Don't let this worry you... it happens to the best of us.... just be aware of it, and make sure you put your heart and soul into the next venture... because if you don't, there is no way you can achieve your goal.

Don't be scared to fail and fall hard.

Will it hurt?… Continue

Holiday Retail: "Very Good Signs"

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 2009

Macy's CEO Terry Lundgren went on the record with the Wall Street Journal Saturday to assert that early indications of both traffic and sales are pointing to "very good signs" for the December shopping season.

Online market reports from Coremetrics showed the average amount online shoppers spent on Friday rose 35% from last year's Black Spending Friday.

Top statistics included:

- Online Apparel retailers saw sales jump 28.6% from last year.

Positive Economic News for Thanksgiving!

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 2009

Recent days have seen continued rebounds in housing, corporate profit reports and consumer confidence.

Two reports early this week point to continued progress in residential housing resales.
On Monday the National Association of Realtors implied that the home-buyer tax credit will likely sustain the housing market throughout next year.

In October, first-time buyers used the tax credit and combined it with record low mortgage rates to push home sales to their highest… Continue

okay, sorry, one last time, cuz we want to get this fixed!

Our developers are currently looking at your issue, and have a few questions:

1) what browser versions are you using of firefox and safari?
2) which version of the mac OS?
3) do you use any firefox ad-blocking software?

separately, I wish I knew how to unblock private messages from people...

lots to learn!

Hello,
The company I mentioned might require packaging/products as they take them to market in Japan. I'm not sure if they have someone they currently work with or if it's up to the individual client to find someone. I do know that I sent them a contact who ships specifically to Japan and they have used them moving forward.

As for companies I work with, currently my target is 100 employees or more and usually 5 million or higher in annual revenue. These are rough estimates and my current customers are much higher than that but I'd like to bring these powerful tools to smaller businesses. We help manage resources, work flow/processes and time/billing.

Thank you so much for your willingness to learn about me.
Cheers,
Amanda

Hi Suzette,
It was great to meet you this week. I'll echo someone else's comment and say you have a powerful profile.
I'm curious if someone who markets products to Japan might be a synergistic partner for you. Let me know what you think and I'll connect you two.
Cheers,

Thank you for all your prayers and support.
