Keeping your brain in tip top shape will keep you on top of your game and help you make wise decisions when it comes to running your business smoothly. Many people slow their learning down once they've found success in their career. However, there are numerous ways to keep your brain stimulated and studies show that continual learning is the key to keeping you sharp in your field and in your mind.
1. Sleep. You can’t function properly without a good deep sleep. Don’t believe those CEOs when they say they run perfectly fine on 2-3hrs of sleep.
2. Exercise. Just like your body, your brain needs exercise to feel good. During some down time during the day enjoy a crossword or sudoku puzzle to keep your brain stimulated.
3. Mediate. Give your brain a chance to recharge and relax. Allowing yourself time to reflect can produce new ideas and connections.
4. Read. No matter what type of book or article you read, they will benefit your brain by keeping it healthy and active and ward off the aging process.
5. Debate. Having friendly debates with friends, family, or co-workers can improve your logical, thinking, reasoning, and creativity skills.
Recharge, reenergize, and reflect!

Planning for Small Business Success
You are passionate about a product or service and can’t wait to break the doors down and start your own business. But, it’s easier said than done. Before you start carelessly spending money on starting up your grand business scheme, you’ll want to mull it over. Before you spend a dime, take a seat, grab a pen, and jot down some answers to these questions:
• How much is my business going to cost to set-up?
• How much is my business going to cost to run a week/month/year?
• Is anyone willing to buy what I have to sell?
• What other problems or challenges does my business face?
• What are my best selling points or strengths?
These aren’t tough questions, just necessary ones that need to be thought out and answered before you take a jump in the deep end of starting your own business.
Still feeling confident? Start mapping out your business by developing the following:
• Business Costs and Financial Planning
• SWOT Analysis (Strength, Weakness, Opportunities and Threats)
• Mission & Goals Statement

Mixed Reviews on Starbucks Instant Coffee
We’ve always touched on the power of brands, and what certain brands’ actions do to ignite or deflect attention. Remember Hyundai? Their brand is still soaring thanks to their assurance program covering purchases for one full year. In this down economy, it was a daring, yet profitable campaign for them.
Now onto Starbucks. This mega coffee giant has seen a drastic shift in consumer spending, thanks to the poor economy. That’s where their new budget friendly campaign comes in: instant coffee. Yep, you heard right. Starbucks, who pride themselves on fresh coffee brewed by perky baristas, are going to try to sell instant coffee. Although, at $2-$4 per cup of regular brewed coffee, $10 for 12 packs of instant coffee seems like a pretty good deal, but until I taste them for myself, I’ll stick to Folgers instant coffee at $4.95 for 60 servings. The internet has been brewing with opinions – mostly negative ones because of the price, and because of the taste. Only time will tell if this product will be around for the long haul.
Need some help brainstorming your next move?

High Impact Marketing: Human Billboards
If you’re trying to stretch your marketing dollars with an effective marketing scheme that will yield a high impact, look no further. Human billboards are the toast of the town when it comes to making that eye-catching statement.
Every year starting in December, I see somebody dressed up as Lady Liberty standing in front of H&R Block on the corner of a busy intersection. Let me remind you – I live in Wisconsin, so it’s quite the site to see a real warm-blooded human standing outside in the bitter cold in a Lady Liberty costume. Hey, they’ve already got my attention!
This is the ultimate advertising display. A walking, talking billboard that’s ready to answer any and all questions about you and your business. People are always curious and readily attracted to what is being presented – especially since a real person is doing the advertising.
Human billboards are intriguing and draw lots of attention. Are you thinking about launching that new product or service? You might want to invest in a human billboard, even if it is for just one day, or even one hour. You’ll be amazed at the impact it will have on your business.
