Hi All:

Today we have common-sense Business Tips on saving time when you 
work.  We start with some statistics as published by Day 
Timers.  Hopefully you will find these tips useful.

New list member Karen Badalucco would like to know more about 
merchant accounts, fulfillment solutions, etc. with a new 
business.  Can anybody offer her some help?

Have you ever wondered what agreement or form to use in your 
business?  Check out our Standard Agreements, which have been 
developed over the years and work very well.

Now, let's get to everything for the retailer.


Sincerely

Day-Timers Inc. conducted a survey and learned:

o Extremely or very successful people tend to work longer hours and 
plan their days during their daily commute.
o The average American worker spends 22 minutes commuting to work and 
5% use their cellular phones during the trip
o 37% have written financial goals, and 33% have written career 
goals, and 73% always or frequently know what they want to accomplish.
o 59% of Americans begin their work day by reviewing a daily action plan
o One-third of American workers (32%) never plan their daily work. 
While 45% make a daily plan at least once a week, only 9% accomplish 
everything they set out to do. The higher the income, the more likely 
the worker is to make a written schedule and prioritize tasks.

... and much more.  http://etailersdigest.com/etd/etd1012.htm#Tips...

Next we will give you some time-saving tips to help you manage your day.
