A Simple Plan
This technique is so simple it may frighten you. Research your Community and find out what are the main problems. Pick a fight or serve a cause to join or support. Find programs locally, nationally or internationally that you believe will best benefit the people you are trying to reach. Or better yet buy a Good Current Grants Guide for about $40. Type the contact name addresses or websites of the programs that offer the best solutions or resources to help with your fight or cause, on one page. At the Bottom of the page Type "Please Give this to someone who may need it ". Print up at least 1000 sheets. You can also reduce cost and increase coverage by making postcard size stiff paper to copy in the same manner described and cut into 4 sections. The last step is to simply attend gatherings, church meetings, special events etc. and pass the paper or postcards out. Now that's a great start to any fight or cause, reaching at least 1000 people in your community for a good cause and giving them possible solutions for their problems is a great start and will make an impact on your world.

Do You Need Accounting Software For Your Small Business?
by: Jakki Francis
If you’re anything like me then you dislike with a vengeance doing your accounts and taxes. So how can you make this process easier, less painful and cut your accountancy fees? Well buying an accounting software package is one way. First of all you need to decide whether you are going to keep your accounting records manually, that is using pen and paper, or whether you are going to computerize the process. If you decide that computerizing the process is the way to go then you need to decide whether to buy an accounting software package, for example Sage or Quicken, or whether a spreadsheet, such as Microsoft Excel will suit your needs better. As a general rule if you are a cash business that just needs to record income and expenditure then you are better off using a spreadsheet. So, should you choose an accounting software package? Yes if: · You have customers to whom you extend credit and you buy goods in the same way · You process in excess of 50 transactions per month · Your business is an Incorporated Company (Limited Company in the UK) and · You are computer literate or are willing to learn!

Accounting Police: Do They Exist?
by: John Day
Who created accounting principles? Who sets and revises accounting standards? What if you don’t follow all the rules, do you go to jail? Is there an accounting police force that investigates and arrests violators? It would seem that there must be some regulatory force to make sure that providers of financial statements conform to the rules. There is, up to a point, and here is how it works:
Mainly, it’s all voluntary and it works pretty well. First, double-entry accounting originated in Italy in the 1400’s, so its been around awhile. Accounting principles have evolved over the years just as have accounting standards. The reason why the system works is that the business community could not function if there was not commonality and consistency in financial statement reporting. It would be chaos, much like if there were no driving rules of the road.
Therefore, in the United States, a body of experts known as the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB pronounced Fasbee) was established in 1973, which superseded another board called the Accounting Principles Board (APB). The FASB members go through a lengthy process of analyzing and reviewing problems in the accounting field that are brought to them. After much thought, they will make a pronouncement as to what they think the new or revised way of approaching the treatment of an accounting issue should be.
They are a non-governmental organization that has private financing. A big supporter of FASB is the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). Many Certified Public Accountants (CPAs) belong to this prestigious organization and are obligated to abide by its guidelines and principles of behavior. Other countries no doubt have similar organizations that require high levels of accounting professional conduct.

How to Quit Your Job
by: Debra Thorsen
Do you to know without ending up on the street? In a nutshell, you need to avoid the self-employment trap, think like a business, and create multiple passive revenue streams. Avoid the Self-Employment Trap If you quit your job and hang up your own shingle, you might work harder for less money. You may enjoy working from home or choosing your own clients, but you might end up living from client to client without building any real wealth. Many self-employed people I know suffer from feast or famine. They spend lots of time and money marketing their services and get lots of clients. They get really busy doing the work and stop marketing and then their prospective client pool dries up. If you set up your business so that you do everything - marketing, sales, bookkeeping, operations, and fulfillment, then you are limiting your success potential from day one. You will spend lots of time on non-income generating activities and may get frustrated and burned-out in a short time. ..>
