If something seems "too good to be true," it probably isn't true. Certainly some "poor multi-millionaire" from Nigeria picking your name out of a hat as a person he can trust with his fortune (a common Internet email scam) has to be viewed with a bit of healthy...

The answer to it can determine your success potential. The Customer Is Always Right - NOT! In many cases, you are the customer. Especially when dealing with other providers, insurance people, your banker, funding sources and a host of others who help support you i...

Business Eric Barnes Fri, 21 Oct 2005 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.isnare.com/?aid=15680&ca=Business You’ve done it! A brand new product idea. Or, perhaps, a new service, based on a need you’ve spotted which no one else seems to have noticed. Possibly even a unique and different way to accomplish an older idea.
