Once you find what motivates you, then take next step. Focusing your thoughts and your attention on one step at a time makes it easier to reach your goals. Stay open to all possibilities and ideas. Divine intervention will guide you, making opportunities available where none may have existed before. You may even see new ideas that you never thought were possible. Do not doubt. New ideas will come your way. Be thankful for them. Look at them with a beginner’s mind – with alertness and enthusiasm. Then move on to next step.

Thoughts are first forms of communication. When you voice your thoughts, you are sending and receiving messages. Your thoughts must be a continuous flow of positive energy. Find some way to communicate this positive energy (enthusiasm) to your customers. This is lifeline of all businesses. Then figure out a creative way to let consumers know about your business products or services. Effective communication makes a big difference in your success.

First, make sure you are offering right product or service. When you can say, “I use it myself, and it’s great,” means you’ve found right product or service to offer to consumers. Whenever your business has a new product or service to offer, it must have power to stick around. Positive, ongoing communication with your customers provides this satisfaction.

Listening and paying attention to your customers is another step to growing your business. Be a forward thinker. It’s a business tool that is often overlooked. Be open and willing to accept changes and new ideas. Focusing on quality and not on profits is another way to encourage business growth. Find a way to communicate benefits of your product or service. Does your merchandise or work reflect high standard that is expected by public? If not, be willing to make it best.

Motivation is driving force behind your business. Find what motivates you and keep emotion going. Let it lead you to being unique. After all, there’s no business like your own business. ###

You can purchase a name without a web site. Read that again. You can buy just a name! Oh, no one told you that? Here’s best part! You can redirect that name to an existing web site, to a free web site, or even to a page on a web site. That’s right! You can pick any name and have it redirected. Think of it, as call forwarding! If your current name is not most advantageous to search engines, or is too long, you can buy a better name, and have it automatically pull up your web site. Just like call forwarding your phone, only your new web site address is seen online.

I’m not affiliated with this company, but I’ve been working with them for over 5 years. They only sell names, and ways to redirect them. When you purchase a name from them, you also get redirection e-mail for free. I’ll explain more about redirection e-mail in part II of this article. For now, check out, namescure.com.

Using their home page, you will be able to type in a web name you want to purchase. You will be surprised that so many of names are already taken. Get creative and think of something unique. Take your time!

You must open an account with Namesecure which includes a user name and password. I found it easier to first setup account, then purchase name. Their web site can be confusing to new users, so go slow. Don’t go crazy and purchase names you will not use. I know it is tempting, because names on this site are reasonably priced. Don’t purchase extra stuff! With name, you automatically get e-mail forwarding. Buy name for only 2 years, as web changes quickly.

The order is usually processed in about two days, sometimes in 15 minutes. The name will then appear in your account. Sign back into your account, then click on word “modify/update” next to your name. A new page appears and on third tab below your new name you will see “Web Settings.” That is where you tell new name to redirect to your existing web site. The amount of time to redirect also varies. I’ve had some names redirect in 10 minutes, others took 8 hours.

So now you know, multiple names that redirect appear as multiple web sites. Don’t miss Part II of this article – online now!
