Show Me the Money

This topic is one that carries so much energy with it and yet it’s extremely important. I once heard that money is not the cure for everything; however it ranks right up there with air!

Being an entrepreneur, you can find ways to produce money almost everywhere. The trick is you must enjoy what you’re doing and believe in it 100%. Many people, including myself, have been caught up in the “Bright and Shiny Object Syndrome” and entertain too many opportunities.
 
Don’t get me wrong, to be successful you should always have multiple streams of income but they should at least all compliment and feed one another. Before you take on anything new think about how it will be viewed by your target audience.
 
When I started my web development company in 2003, I thought about all the things that business owners need to have a successful website. They need a great site with valuable content and images but more importantly, they need to promote it. So I created different methods and tools to help them get the word out including email marketing, search engine optimization, social media, etc. The only problem was I couldn’t make each of these services produce a high volume of sales. Each one took a lot of time with very little income which ultimately cost me too much.
 
Since I’m such a big believer in networking your business, I would be approached by every business opportunity possible. I think I actually had a bullseye tattooed somewhere on me that made me a target! At one point in time, I had 4 businesses that all produced a little income but none of them could sustain full-time income.
 
I made the decision to focus most of my energy into building someone else’s company. Keep in mind, I was still a business owner and managed my own time. The challenge was that no matter how many hours a week I’d dedicate to this organization, it still wouldn’t produce enough income to support myself and my family.

 
Looking back at it today, I realized that by splitting my focus, I actually diluted the effectiveness and yet when I applied all my energy into the one I thought would work, it failed.
 
So how do you produce the money you need? By putting yourself in full alignment with the products and services you represent or create. Sometimes we need to let go of what doesn’t serve us to allow new opportunities to blossom. Focus only on one until it runs smoothly, grows with little effort and produces the revenue you desire.
 
Never look back at what you coulda, shoulda, woulda done. Simply accept what is, be in the moment and always have vision to the future.

Business and Money

Another way of looking at this article is as tips to creating your own business. Business needs, among other ingredients, money to create it and to maintain it. If the business is a success, it will, over a given period of time, bring in more money than it takes to create and maintain it.

Creating a business calls for time and commitment. It calls for passion. Anybody old or shrewd enough to know the value of money would wish for money. We all know that wishing for money would not bring the money. There is need to organize something in exchange for goods or services.

This organization of product or services, in sufficient quality and quantity, and offering it for monetary reward is business. Properly done, it can lead to business success. In going into any business, it is necessary to ask and get answers to some questions.

The first of these questions relates to knowledge of self. What are your passions? If you were not held back by other commitments, such as your day job, what would you be doing? Sports? Writing? Fitness regime? Offering services? The list is almost endless. It helps to be in an area of business where you are passionate or at least interested. When the going gets rough, as it surely will, your passion or lack of it could mean the difference between soldering on or giving up.

Next is the Knowledge. You may not have all the knowledge you need when you start out in business, but, do you know where to get it? Can such knowledge be paid for? (outsourcing). Is the product or service already out there? Can you market it better, at a lower cost? What is it about your product or service that makes it different from other products or services already out there? In practical products, such as web design, it helps to realize that your finished product may lack the finesse of experts who have been there and may be, who have done the same things over a period of time.

Last is the big M. Yes money. How much would it cost to start this project? If the business is not bringing the results you expected, how long can you keep it going? Suppose the business is not performing well, would you know why? If the business is bringing in returns as planned, what next? This area is about budget and cash flow. Would it help to obtain independent advice?

Any genuine business carries a degree of risk. A lot of the time, all the factors that influences a business cannot be known. There is that little extra that goes into business success. It is your hunger for success. Your passion. Your commitment.

Save Money on Food

I speak to reptile keepers frequently and find a trend developing. Most people that keep lizards as pets keep multiple animals. With more than one animal being maintained, food costs add up quickly.

If you are like me, you look for any way you can to save money on the food you are feeding without sacrificing quality.

There are several methods to do this….

Buy in quantity.

When I owned just a couple of bearded dragons, I would hit the pet store about every other day to buy crickets. Let’s see, 20 crickets for $ 2.00 didn’t seem all that bad. I promised to cut down on my diet coke consumption and all was well. Within 6 months though, I was up to 2 dragons, 5 chameleons, and about 6 leopards. 20 crickets turned into 75 crickets every other day. Though I could purchase 75 crickets for about 6 bucks…. That’s around $ 20 per week and over $ 1,000 per year!

I quickly found an on-line insect business where I could buy 1000 crickets for about $ 17 shipped to my door. Even with loosing some insects, that’s still a dozen feedings, and more importantly, a huge savings! Score! Buying on-line was the answer. As my collection grew to over 200 animals (not including babies at any one time), you can see how this method of purchasing feeder insects has save me loads of money.

All it takes is a couple of 40-50 qt containers, some screen, scissors, a little hot glue and somewhere to store the containers. Feeding them table scraps (gut load is better- see below), ensuring they have water, and cleaning their tub once a week will allow crickets to last two weeks easily. If you are dealing with mealworms, it’s even easier. As they cannot jump, a shallow tub, some paper towel, and food every other day is all it takes to keep them for weeks and weeks.

If you have several animals, buying on-line is certainly the way to go. If you only have one or two geckos, you may be able to buy in larger quantities for less from your local pet store and keep them for future use as mentioned above.

Less waste

So I started saving money by buying on-line. However, I still made mistakes. These mistakes resulted in wasted food… and lost money.

One of my initial thoughts was that if I could buy so many for XXX dollars, I could buy twice as much and save even more dollars. Well, this works if you can feed all those crickets. There is nothing worse than having twice as many crickets being stored than you can feed. Eventually, you will start to experience die off. As you feed, you will find out what you’re capable of storing and feeding in a certain time period and will only order as much as you can use.

This applies more with crickets than it does mealworms. Mealworms will keep quite a while without significant die off if kept correctly. However, they will start transforming into beetles that usually cannot be used for feeding. You can cool mealworms down to 45 degrees to slow this process down and keep the insects for months… if your spouse can tolerate worms in the fridge.

When ordering insects, make sure you order the correct size. If you are buying only adult crickets yet have sub adult crested or leopard geckos, the crickets will go uneaten. Not only is this a waste of food but also, if the crickets do not have other food to eat in the enclosure, they will bother the animal.

I’ve always had issues with shipments in the winter. I would say about every forth shipment (even shipped overnight) will come in with some fatalities, even up to 50% dead. This holds true in the summer as well when temperatures are excessive. Work out the math. It might be cheaper to forgo the shipments in winter (or summer) and pay more at the pet store if the temperatures are extreme.

Buy at Shows

If I am between purchases of feeder insects and am planning to attend a lizard show, I will wait and order from a vendor at the show. The crickets or mealworms may be a tiny bit more expensive but you can eliminate shipping charges. Again, do the math and see if this works out for you.

Do It Yourself

One of the best ways to save money on your feeder insects is to breed them yourself. Crickets and mealworms are reasonably easy to breed and raise up to feeding size. Crickets are a bit more difficult than mealworms. There are plenty of great sites on the web to find insect breeding information, including our information library.

Another option, again if you can slide it past your spouse, is raising cockroaches. They breed like, well cockroaches. Once they settle in, you can produce hundreds or thousands if you have the room each month. Chameleons and bearded dragons love them!

It is very important to feed your insects with a good, nutritious food. This is called ‘gutloading’. The food you provide your feeders will ultimately be passed on to your animals. There are several very good gutload pre-mixed foods available on-line. I’ve been feeding chick feed purchased from a feed store. It is called Layena Poltry Feed and 50 pounds can be purchased for about 7. It is loaded with nutrients, including calcium. In addition, I will include a meal of carrots or oranges.

Crested & Day Geckos

If you are feeding crested or day geckos, you have the unique opportunity to offer a food that is both a complete diet and is the least expensive food you can feed- it is both the best food and feeding it will save you quite a bit of money. A powdered diet called MRP (meal replacement powder) (or crested gecko diet) provides all the nutrients these animals find and need in nature, plus it is so easy to use! See below for more information on MRP.

No one likes to spend more money than they need to on the supplies for their animals. I hope the above suggestions help you to save some money on feeder insects. The way I think about this is that I now have more money to spend on more animals.

Money Myths

There are so many different money myths that swirl around, it can be hard to determine just what you can believe. It seems as though almost everyone could use to make more cash, but there are ways that really work and then there are so many that do not. In fact, you can find more that do not work at all then you can ones that do.

So, what myths are there about making money that you absolutely should not fall for?

1. You can pay $ 20 or $ 40 for a website that will instantly make you $ 100 or more every single day.This is so unreal, it is amazing that people fall for it as well as that people sell this claim. No one in any business would sell an opportunity for $ 20 or $ 40 that is going to make you thousands of dollars every month.

2. Making a million dollars is just as easy as making a penny.Come on. Even a five year old can find a penny. To really get into the state of mind where you are able to make a million dollars, you cannot believe this one at all. Run far and away from anyone that makes this claim. It’s ridiculous.

3. You are limited as to how much money you can make.This is one that nearly everyone believes. Whether it is education, or just being in a business with a ceiling on earnings, people fall for this one all of the time. You can make an amazing amount of money in your life.

As I said before, stay far and away from anyone that makes any of these ridiculous claims. You can get yourself into a state of mind where you will find that opportunities for making some real cash come your way in abundance.

Buying a house or a property is a big thing and most people can not afford to make a mistake. People want nothing but to get value for money that is why people hire only the best estate or letting agents who could help them find not just the best but most reasonably priced properties.

There are a number of estate agents Battersea, estate agents Clapham, and letting agents Clapham and Battersea who could be of assistance to anybody who needs help when it comes to property hunting. People nowadays can actually have all the things that they need on the Internet, people can just go online find the best real estate or property website and get what they want in a jiffy. People just have to fill in some forms with the location that they want their property to be in, their budget range, and other essentials, after this they would be able to go through a portfolio of all the available properties in the market. People can check out the location, there are photos that they could see, and everything can be provided online.

Save Time and Money

For companies who would like to save time and money when it comes to hiring a new team of people for a special project or a task that needs to be accomplished or finished in a short time then they can hire an interim management or senior interim management to help them make an executive search. Companies could not afford to assign from their current members or staff and make them do an extra task on top of their primary responsibilities in the company. It would be taxing to the employees and they would not be able to give their 100% on both tasks that is why the best thing that companies could do is to hire the services of an interim and executive recruitment agency. An interim and recruitment company would take care of everything that a company would need when it comes to manpower.

Taking an interim agency into service would definitely be beneficial to the company as well as to the entire staff. People might think that this is added expenses to the company but if they look at the advantages that it gives in the long run then they would definitely be able to know how much they would save. Some companies bombard their employees with a lot of different projects thinking that this is more cost-effective then they would suffer the consequences in the future, especially when the employees start to feel the pressure of their workload and it would soon take a toll on them and they may call it quits, which could cause more problems to the company. Time is another thing that is very important in a company. Employees who could finish their tasks on time are happy and productive workers and this could be very favorable to the company as well.
