At the time of the production period

At the time of the production period when you have to decide on a packaging manufacturer, there are several things to Nike Shox TL1,consider before appointing a company for the job.

1. Short Runs. Does the company you are looking at offer short runs, meaning that you can get a small amount done like 500 units or do they only do large runs where you are forced to a minimum of 1000 or 1500 units.

2. Cost. When looking at packaging manufactures see what their costs include. Some will include the design work and other will not. Some will be cost per job or a per unit cost. Sometimes the cost per unit looks great but when you find a company that will do a per project job the cost per Nike Blazer Low,unit may wind up less especially if you are looking at smaller minimum orders.

3. Past Clients. Who have they done work for before? If you know the products they have worked on before you can better assess the quality of the work.

In the end, it is your company and you need the proper identity for your products. Quality will always overcome cost so you can put your best foot forward.

You have worked extremely hard to get to where you are

You have worked extremely hard to get to where you are and you certainly strive to go up from here. You have a winning product and it is selling incredibly well. As with everything in life there is always Nike Shox NZroom for improvement. Maybe not the product itself but instead how it is packaged. Packaging is always what the consumer sees first.

Before you look for someone to create your packaging, be very clear about you want it to look like. Your product will dictate what that is. Take board games for example. The packaging is so much larger when compared to other products. This size allows you to be incredibly creative, but with board games specifically there are really only two kinds of packaging widely available – industry standards if you will. The Monopoly size which is more rectangle and the Cranium size which is a perfect square. There are not many board games that branch off from this standard.

Card games are a bit different than board games in the sense that yes, card games are pretty standard as far as how a deck looks but the packaging can differ widely. You can have cartons that sit in a counter display or those that hang from hooks on walls. They can be inside small Nike Air Presto,containers that appeal to consumers or just basically thrown on a shelf and wrapped in cellophane. The packaging is small so you have to fit a lot into a small area so a great logo and name is very important in order to get noticed.

When it comes down to the packaging you can go for something that accentuates your product or is more compact to fit better on shelves or hung on racks. No matter what you decide, you still need to find someone to create yourproduct.

Your home location should always

Your home location should always have a distribution point and is typically one that you maintain personally. If you are in Nike Shox TL1,Los Angeles then you will have a distribution outlet in Los Angeles. Same thing if your business is located in New York City. So how do you take care of your distribution woes outside of your local area? Simply, in one word: Warehousing in the Midwest.

The Midwest has it all including a mass amount of warehousing and distribution centers. It is the central part of the country, which means that whatever your product is if it is sent from the Midwest it will get to either the East or West coast in the same amount of time. The cost Nike Shox Turbo,of shipping is also less than it would be if you were using a warehouse solution on either coast. Wisconsin warehousing offers some added benefits for companies that use their distribution solutions such as certain tax breaks, which can easily entice a company to their warehousing solutions.

In the end, it comes down to cost and efficiency. Your company will live and die on your assets and your ability to get those assets to those who put down their money for those products. The Midwest is a Nike Blazer Low, central distribution point and thus makes it both cost effective and efficient.

You are in business to make money

You are in business to make money. In fact – it is your duty to make as much money as one can humanly make in as short a period of time as you can. You owe to not just yourself but your employees and Nike Shox NZ,investors. If you make no money not only you cannot survive but your investors will lose money and your employees may either quit or have to be let go.

In this day and age of businesses failing left and right how can you expect to live up to any expectations that you have for yourself or those of your investors? The simple solution is being able to get your product to your customers in a time frame they can live with and a price they will not scoff at and that will not break your bank. In order to make deadlines on shipping you need to be able to cultivate relationships with the proper distribution companies. You have to be able to trust that whomever is warehousing your product (and thusly packing, shipping and maintaining your inventory checklists) to be able to get it packed and out the door quickly and correctly.

When you think of a distribution point, you usually think about using warehouses in New York or on the west coast like California. The east and west coasts both have tremendous reach but, in the end, you want a location that is central to your customers in the United States. Choosing a warehouse solution in either New York or California will leave you with a very long reach if you have to send product to the other coast. Shipping to the north Nike Air Presto,or south on the same coast will be a breeze and even to the Midwest a snap but the time between coasts is just too great.

The Office Ecoil EC1000 is a manual

  • The Office Ecoil EC1000 is a manual spiral coil binding machine that is designed for small offices and home offices.
  • Created by the Digital Finishing Group, the EC1000 is a medium duty, feature rich and economical spiral coil binding machine that is popular with small churches, offices, schools and professional Nike Shox Rivalry,organizations.
  • It includes many of the features of more expensive binding machines but is available at a price that is palatable for organizations on a budget.

Strengths / Features:

  • One of the greatest strengths of this machine is its price point. With a selling price around three hundred dollars, the EC1000 is the least expensive coil binding machine with an electric coil inserter that is available on the market. This is perfect for organizations that are on a tight budget but don't want to insert the coils onto their books by hand.
  • The Offce Ecoil 1000 includes a punching mechanism that is capable of handling up to 25 sheets of 20lb paper per lift. Although the machine can probably punch this many sheets at a time, you would have to use a whole lot of force on the handle. Most individuals should be able to punch between 15-20 sheets of paper at a time. This is still an excellent punching capacity for a manual coil binding machine and is in line with other similar binding machines that are on the market.
  • As I mentioned above, the EC-1000 includes a spiral coil inserter on the top of the machine. Most coil binding machines in this price range do not include this feature. Plus, the EC-1000 includes a foot pedal to control the inserter. Using the coil inserter you can quickly and easily insert the spirals onto the edge of your document without having to wind them on by hand.
  • Many coil binding machines in this price range are made primarily of plastic. However, the EC-1000 is made with high quality metal components. Although there are certainly more durable binding Kids' Nike Shox,machines available on the market, this machine should have no problem binding a few documents every day for years without the need for maintenance.
  • The EC1000 also includes a pair of high quality coil crimping pliers for finishing your documents. Using these pliers you can cut off and crimp the ends of your spirals so that they don't spin back off your bound documents. These crimpers have a value of about $30.

The Titancoil includes an electric

  • The Titancoil includes an electric spiral coil inserter on the top of the machine. This is an extremely handy feature to have on a manual coil binding machine. It helps to spin the coils onto the Nike Shox Dreams,edge of your documents. However, the design of the coil inserter on this machine has a few issues that make it less effective than other coil inserters on the market. The inserter on the Titan-Coil uses only one spinning rollers and is only six inches in length. Higher quality coil inserters utilize two rollers and longer lengths to make inserting go faster. The design of this inserter limits it to books that are less than 22mm in size. Larger coils will need to be inserted by hand.
  • Although most of the components on this machine are made from high quality steel, there are a few pieces that are not nearly as durable. The spine measuring device, the edge guide and the depth of punch margin control adjustments are all made of plastic. The plastic depth of punch control or spine measurer shouldn't be a huge deal. However, the edge guide on a machine like this gets a lot of use. It would be a lot better if this edge guide was made of metal for durability and accuracy.
  • The foot pedal used for the coil inserter on this machine is also not nearly as larger or durable as the foot pedals included on other similar pieces of binding equipment that are on the market. Depending on how much you use this machine and how hard you step on the foot pedal this is a component that may eventually need replacement.
  • The final limitation that I noticed with the TItancoil is that the chip tray on this machine is fairly small. This isn't a huge deal. It just means that you need to remember to empty the chads from the tray more often in order to ensure that they don't back up inside the punching mechanism.

Recommendation:

  • The overall construction and feature set of the DFG TitanCoil is actually quite excellent. Document Finishing Group has utilized a number of high quality metal components and included features on this machine that are simply not available on most other coil binding machines.
  • However, there are a few limitations and concerns that I have with this machine. In my opinion, for most companies the Nike Shox R4,Akiles CoilMac ECI is a slightly better choice than the DFG TitanCoil. The only exception is if your organization needs to bind custom sized documents. The TitanCoil is a better choice for that application.

The DFG TitanCoil is a heavy binding machine

  • The DFG TitanCoil is a heavy binding machine that is designed for medium sized companies that want to bind their own documents with spiral coil.
  • Although this machine has a manual punch, it is built with high quality metal components for use in organizations that Nike Shox R5,need to bind documents every day.
  • The TitanCoil is a heavy duty, reliable, functional and user friendly binding machine. This makes it an excellent choice for POD applications, Quick-Printers, Copy Shops and professional organizations.
  • It offers a heavy duty punching capacity, fully disengageable dies, and open punching throat and a built in spiral coil inserter.

Strengths / Features:

  • The DFG Titan-Coil is one of the most durably constructed spiral coil binding machines available on the market. It is made almost entirely of metal components and is extremely durable. The housing, document table, handle and all the internal mechanisms are made from high quality steel. This durable construction allows the Titancoil to punch up to twenty five sheets at a time.
  • One of the most impressive things about the TitanCoil binding machines is that it includes fully disengageable dies. For years, binding machine companies have said that it was impossible to include this feature on a coil binding machine since the punching pins were so close together. However, DFG has found a way to include this feature on their machines. This enables users to punch virtually any length of document. The throat on this machine is eleven inches long. This means that you can punch any document that is eleven inches or less in one punch. Any document that is longer than eleven inches can be punched using a two step punching process.
  • The TitanCoil includes a special book measuring guide on the right hand side of the machine. You simply place your stack of pages under the measuring guide and press it down to determine the correct size of coil that you need for your book. This feature is extremely useful for organizations that bind reports and presentations that are different thicknesses. It take all the guesswork out of choosing the diameter of your coil binding supplies.
  • On the left hand side of the machine behind the paper edge guide there is a depth of punch margin control. This control allows you to select how far in from the edge of the page the holes will be punched. The holes should be set closer to the edge of the page for small sized Nike Blazer,coils and further away for larger diameter books. If the holes are set too far away, the pages in your thin books may not turn freely. However, if the pages are set too close to the edge of the page, the sheets may tear out of your large diameter presentations.

The DFG Titan Comb is a heavy duty manual plastic

  • The DFG Titan Comb is a heavy duty manual plastic comb binding machine that is designed for organizations that are looking for a high quality binding system for binding a huge variety of document sizes and thicknesses.
  • The Titan Comb includes a heavy duty Nike Shox Cheap,manual punch, depth of punch control, disengageable dies, a high quality comb opener and an open throat design for punching longer documents.
  • With all of these features, the Titan Comb is one of the most feature rich and powerful manual comb binding machines available on the market.

Strengths / Features:

  • The Titan Comb has a heavy duty manual punch that is capable of punching up to 28 sheets of 20lb paper at a time. This is one of the largest punching capacities available on a manual comb binding machine. The large punching capacity offered by this machine is great for increasing productivity when binding your documents.
  • This machine also has twenty one disengageable dies. Thus, the Titan Comb is ideal for punching documents that are A4, letter size or smaller. Plus, it has an open throat so that you can use it to punch longer documents using a two step punching process.
  • It also includes a depth of punch margin control that allows you to move the holes closer to the edge of the paper for binding small sized documents and further from the edge of the paper for Nike Shox Clearance,binding thick documents. With this feature it is possible to bind documents from 3/16" up to 2" thick using the DFG Titan Comb.
  • The Titan Comb is also made of heavy duty steel. It's metal construction makes it incredibly durable. In fact, this machine should have no problems binding documents for years in your organization.

Although the Titan-Wire has a great punching capacity

  • Although the Titan-Wire has a great punching capacity, it is still a manual binding machine. In order to punch the maximum capacity of this machine you have to pull pretty hard on the handle. Smaller companies can simply punch a few less sheets and it won't be a huge deal. However, Nike Shox Turbo,larger volume users may want to consider an electric machine to help improve productivity and reduce the risks for repetitive motion injuries.
  • One major oversight by DFG when they designed the Titan-Wire is that they neglected to include a wire holder or wire hanger on the machine. This feature is used to hold the wire spines in place while you hang your pages onto the loops of the wire spine. Unfortunately, without a wire hanger you have to hold the spine in one hand and the wire in another. That is difficult for almost any user and it greatly cuts into the productivity of this unit.
  • The placement of the wire closer on this unit is also less than ideal. Having the wire closer on the top of the machine means that you have to lift the document and the wire up to the closer without the spine falling off. This can be pretty tricky, even for experienced users. Other machines that have the wire closer located at the front of the machine tend to be much easier to use.
  • The other issue with this machine is that it only has an eleven inch punching throat and wire closer. Many other comparable machines on the market have a fourteen inch punching throat. For organizations that never need to bind documents over 11" this isn't a problem. However, if your company will ever need to bind documents that are legal sized or A4 size this machine will be a lot more difficult to use. This is definitely something to keep in mind when comparing this machine to other similar pieces of equipment on the market.

Recommendation:

  • The Titan Wire 3:1 pitch binding machine is one of the strongest and most durable binding machines that is available on the market today.
  • In many areas its construction and Nike Shox Deliver,features are exceptional and allow it to stand apart from its competition.
  • However, the fact that it only has an eleven inch punching throat and does not include a wire hanger or holder is a definite drawback to this machine.

The GBC MP2000W3 is a fixed die modular binding punch

  • The GBC MP2000W3 is a fixed die modular binding punch that produces a 32 hole square hole pattern (on an eleven inch sheet) for use in binding documents with 3:1 pitch twin loop wire.
  • It is meant to be used in a small to
    MBT Tariki Shoes,medium sized organization that needs to bind documents using twin loop wire.
  • This machine does not include a wire closer but instead is designed to be combined with either the GBC MC50 manual wire closer or the GBC TL2900 electric twin loop wire closer.
  • The MP2000-W3 can be used by a single operator who does both the punching and binding or can be used as part of an assembly line to help increase productivity.

Strengths / Features:

  • This machine is designed with a vertical punching throat. This allows users to use gravity to help align their pages for punching. As pages are inserted into the MP2000W3 you can simply tap them on base of the punch and slide them into place. This is helpful for making sure that your pages are always lined up for punching and eliminates costly mispunches.
  • The MP2000-W3 is a medium duty wire binding punch that is capable of punching up to sixteen sheets of twenty pound paper at a time. It produces a three to one pitch hole pattern that has three holes per inch (32 holes on an 11" binding edge). Although there are certainly machines on the market that are capable of punching more sheets, this machine does an excellent job and offers exceptional punching quality. The hole pattern produced by this punch can be used for binding documents with 3:1 pitch wire, GBC Proclick and with special 3:1 pitch spiral coils.
  • The MP2000W3 has convenient and easy to use punching controls. You can activate the punch by pressing the conveniently MBT Salama Sandalslocated palm switch on the front of the machine. Or if you prefer you can use the heavy duty foot pedal control that is included with this machine. In general the push button control will be faster for short run production while the foot pedal will be better for long runs. However, the choice is really yours.
  • The modular nature of this machine allows it to be used as part of an assembly line for creating wire bound documents. By having one person punch your documents while another person binds it is possible to almost triple your productivity over the use of a standard all in one binding machine. This can present substantial cost savings to your organization and gives you an option for completing those important jobs quickly and efficiently.
  • The MP2000W3 uses a fairly unique edge guide control that is easy to adjust and move. I was impressed at how easy it was to move the edge guide and lock it in place with precision. This makes setting this machine up for punching different sized documents a lot easier.

The punching capacity offered by the MP2500ix

  • The punching capacity offered by the MP2500ix is between 17-29 sheets per punch depending on the hole-pattern that you are using. This is a little bit on the low side for a modular binding punch of this size. The motor on this machine is large enough that it could punch more MBT Fumba,sheets of paper. However, GBC has limited the size of the throats on the punching dies to prevent over punching and to prolong the life of this machine. The quality of the punch pattern is better on this machine than it will be on other machines that offer larger capacities. However, this is still a limitation to keep in mind.
  • The punching cycle on this machine is 1.5 seconds. This is the amount of time that it takes for the punch to recover after punching a document. When compared to other similar modular punches that are available from Rhino Tuff this is fairly similar. However, larger punches such as the Magnapunch have a punching cycle as fast as 0.5 seconds. High volume users in production environments may find themselves waiting for the MP2500ix.
  • When you buy a new MP2500ix it will come with one punching die. However, if you want to use this machine for multiple punching patterns you will need to purchase additional die sets. You will also need to buy pieces of finishing equipment such as a comb opener, coil inserter or wire closer. These devices are designed to finish the binding process after your documents have been punched using a modular punch.

Recommendation:

  • The MP2500ix is a great choice for small printers, large offices, in-plant print shops and copy shops that want the MBT Kisumu Sandals,ability to punch multiple hole patterns quickly and efficiently.
  • This machine is quiet, compact and includes a stylish design that will help it to fit inside an office environment. However, it offers the productivity that is need for light duty industrial applications.
  • Just remember that you will need a punching die set for every hole pattern that you want to create. Plus, you will need a piece of finishing equipment to complete the binding process.
  • This machine should be great for medium to high volume punching applications. However, the largest volume users may want consider stepping up to the Magnapunch for a considerable increase in productivity.

The GBC MP2500ix is an interchangeable

  • The GBC MP2500ix is an interchangeable die binding punch that is designed for small and medium sized print shops, in-plant print shops and professional organizations that need to bind documents with more than one than one style of binding.
  • This machine is designed to MBT Habari Sandals allow users to switch punching patterns in less than a minute making it convenient for short run applications and busy office environments.
  • The MP2500ix is fast, quiet, versatile and easy to use. All of these things are important in an office environments.

Strengths / Features:

  • The MP2500ix offers GBC's patented quick change die mechanism. This means that all you need to do in order to change the punching pattern on this machine is to slide the die out of the side of the machine and slide the new die in. It only takes a few seconds and there are no screws to loosen, levers to tighten or latches to fasten. This gives the MP2500 a distinct advantage over other machines from Rhino Tuff, Renz, James Burns and Akiles.
  • Another great thing about the MP2500ix is the number of different punching patterns that are available for use with it. There are currently eleven different die sets available for this machine. Using these die sets you can produces holes for: plastic comb binding, spiral coil, double loop wire, GBC Proclick, Velobind, Surebind, 3-Ring binders and 2-hole filing.
  • This machine includes a vertical punching throat and dual punch activators. The vertical punching throat allows you MBT Panda Sandals,to use gravity to help you align your pages. You can activate the punch by pressing palm switch on the front of the machine. Or, if you prefer you can use the foot pedal control to activate the punching mechanism.
  • The MP2500ix is designed to be paired with other GBC modular finishing equipment. It includes a large flat top that is designed to accommodate a wire closer, comb opener or spiral coil inserter. By stacking your finishing device onto the top of this machine you can save space and ensure that your finishing device is never out of reach, or they can be separated so one user can punch and one user can bind for larger jobs.
  • The MP2500ix is the only modular binding punch available on the market to offer a 3-5-7/2-4 punching die. This die can punch three-hole documents for inserting into ring binders and can punch two-hole paper for filing applications. Companies who do a lot of paper filing will more than likely find this to be one of the fastest punching methods for two hole punching documents that need to be filed into file folders with fasteners.
  • This machine is also incredibly quiet. Many other large binding punches have continuous cycle motors that make noise whenever the punch is turned on. The MP2500ix does not make noise until you activate the punching mechanism and even then it is not very loud. This makes this machine a great choice for a quieter office environment where noise control is an issue.

The sizes of documents that can be bound with Proclick

  • The sizes of documents that can be bound with Proclick are fairly limited. In fact, Proclick spines are only available in three sizes and four colors. They come in small (5/16"), medium (1/2") and large (5/8"). As for colors, you can choose from Black, Navy Blue, White and MBT Fumba,Frost. If these sizes and colors don't fit your needs it is always possible to use this machine with 3:1 pitch spiral coil which comes in over sixty colors and almost twenty sizes. However, 3:1 pitch spiral coil needs to be special ordered and in order to use it effectively with this system you will also need to invest in a pair of spiral coil crimping pliers.
  • This machine is designed for binding letter sized documents on the 11" side. Currently that is the only way that Proclick binding spines are available. Users who need to bind landscape documents, half letter sized paper or longer sheet sizes will find that this machine will not meet their needs. The P110 can punch 8.5" x 11" sheets and oversized covers (8.75" x 11.25"). Using it to punch any other sizes is not recommended.
  • Although the punching capacity of this machine is decent, it is important to remember that the P110 is still a manual binding punch. It is really ideal for small offices and home offices that need to bind up to twenty documents per week. Larger volume users will probably benefit considerably from the electric punching mechanism that is offered by the P210E.

Recommendation:

  • The New GBC P110 is an excellent machine for a small office or home office that needs to bind a few documents per day.
  • It offers a decent quality manual punch, a Proclick spine holder and the new GBC guide right technology to help prevent mispunches.
  • However, before your organization MBT Kisumu Sandals,purchases this machine it is important to make sure that the Proclick binding style will be able to bind the sizes and thicknesses that you need.
  • If you do decide that Proclick is a good option for you then this machine will probably be a great fit within your organization.

The GBC P110 is a manual Proclick binding

  • The GBC P110 is a manual Proclick binding machine that was released by GBC as part of their 2008 line of products.
  • This machine is designed for small and medium sized offices that are looking to bind a few documents per day using the MBT Shuguli GTX,Proclick binding style.
  • The P110 incorporates GBC's new guide right technology to help you ensure that the holes are perfectly centered on your documents with every punch.
  • This machine will soon replace the older GBC P200 Proclick binding machine.

Strengths / Features:

  • The P110 includes a medium duty manual punch that is capable of punching up to fifteen sheets of twenty pound paper at MBT Boost a time. It punches nice large round shaped holes that help to provide a stylish look for your documents and make using this machine with Proclick spines fairly easy. The punching handle on this machine is ergonomically designed and is great for both left and right handed individuals.
  • This machine uses GBC's new guide right technology. This technology uses a sliding document tray to help you square up your documents and ensure that they are fully loaded into the punch. Using the guide right system should help eliminate costly mispunches and makes it unnecessary to set up the machine for punching your documents or covers. The system will even center oversize covers for punching.
  • On the top of the P110 there is a set of hooks that are designed to hold your Proclick spines while you are working on binding your documents. You simply use the hooks to hold your Proclick spine in place and hang the pages of your document on the spine as you finish punching them. This is a great feature and it definitely makes binding documents with Proclick a lot easier.
  • Documents bound with this binding system are designed to quickly and easily be edited. Each box of Proclick binding MBT Sport,spines includes a convenient zipper tool to help you open and close the spines of your documents. This makes this binding style ideal for sales representatives and mobile personnel that may need to edit their documents in the field at a moments notice.

Divorce lawyers are called in to deal with the break up of a relationship

Divorce lawyers are called in to deal with the break up of a relationship and the important task of finding one must begin; ensure they have at least the following abilities:?*A Specialist in this area *Have the right approach *Reputable ?As far as experience is concerned, an attorney should be Kids' Nike Shox able to show that at least half of their work involves divorce cases and have good negotiation skills as well. They must be someone you can trust and work with comfortably; someone who has your confidence.Attorneys that specialize in mediation cases will be able to give you sound advice for out of court settlements but if a court appearance is necessary, they will need experience. A divorce lawyer is a busy person so before you contact them know exactly what information you need them to supply.Plan each conversation by making an Nike Shox TL3,agenda and write down the things you want to talk about; take notes on the content of the conversation and the amount of time spent on phone calls. Keep a file for all your notes, letters and documents so do as much as possible on the phone and by mail to keep the office time at a minimum.Regard your attorney as a resource, not someone you depend on for emotional support because they cost too much for you to use them for sympathy and consolation; besides, you have family and friends for that. Stick to relevant facts when you contact your divorce lawyer; do not discuss other matters regarding your spouse unless they are pertinent to the divorce.You really want your lawyer to know that you are in control and in charge of what is going on and that they are to help you with legal and technical issues and not to get your life straight. Your legal representative must be told up front that whilst his or her advice is essential, all decisions regarding the divorce will be made by you. Let them know that copies of any correspondence relating to the case will need to be sent to you along with any other information and if you contact them, to reply as quickly as possible.Instead of hiring a lawyer, it may be far more cost-effective to use the lawyer just for information or advice on specific subjects like a marital settlement because that may be all the legal help you will need. You may decide to carry out research first before you contact them, only asking your lawyer questions you have not been able to find Nike Shox Rival,answers too. Some people only use a divorce lawyer to re-read and check a marital settlement they have drafted on their own but at least these people have the backup of using a lawyer if all else fails.

POSSIBLE SOLUTION: First you have to ask yourself

POSSIBLE SOLUTION: First you have to ask yourself how you will handle this should it arise. Second, you should be creating Nike Shox TL1,markers (metrics) along the way so this doesn't happen ' you should know at least a year out if the person you have chosen is going to make it or not.

CONSIDERATIONS: This scenario can be avoided if there are multiple people who may be possibilities; groom them both. At some point one is likely to become the front runner. Just make sure you provide each with the Nike Shox NZ,necessary training, development, mentoring and guidance so that you are giving each a fair and equal chance. If you have multiple people you are grooming, let them know this. It isn't fair for one person to believe they have 'the job' and not be aware that there is competition. If at any point it is obvious that one candidate isn't going to make it, then you need to be fair and let them know they are no longer in the running. You may also need to be prepared for them to make the decision to leave your company.

It's very important that you understand that you cannot run the business until the day you leave. Your leader(s)-in-waiting need to be given the opportunity to make decisions try new ideas and make mistakes under your tutelage. This provides you with the opportunity to help them learn, understand how they think and to gain trust in their ability. Handing over the reins is best managed in a gradual process. This way the company staff will have had the time it takes to begin to view the incumbent as the new leader.

Putting a succession process in place is crucial to the success of any company. The key people you've identified in your plan will eventually be accountable for making certain that your company is capable of overcoming challenges and obstacles in the future.

Unfortunately, succession planning tends to be one of those initiatives that many business owners and leaders can't seem to find the time to start until it's too late. A strong word of caution here: if you don't address succession planning now your organization may end up facing the burden in the Nike Air Presto, middle of a crisis.

You've put your blood, sweat and tears into building your company

You've put your blood, sweat and tears into building your company. It's grown into something that you're proud of ' something that will leave your mark on the world and bring you the retirement you've always wished for. In fact, it's grown past the point where you cannot expect to handle everything on your own. What can you delegate? And to whom? Or perhaps you're thinking that you'd like to Nike Blazer Low,start moving into that planned retirement of your dreams. But how will the business run without you at the helm? With an entire generation of Baby Boomer leaders looking towards their retirement futures, these questions are being asked frequently. In fact, succession planning is becoming an increasingly important aspect of today's business landscape.

The key to understanding succession planning is that it's simply the act of having a systematic process in place. A process where business owners and corporate leaders identify, assess and cultivate their key people to ensure they are ready to take on strategic roles within the company.

Succession planning is something every leader and organization talks about. On some level, every business owner knows that they need to have a succession process in place, yet very little attention is Nike Shox Turbo,actually paid to developing a strong plan and implementing it. Even when there is some semblance of a plan, often it does not address challenges and issues that arise as impediments to a smooth transition.

The good news is that

The good news is that, whilst we each tend towards a default perspective for each situation in which we find ourselves, we can at any moment choose a different perspective. Taking a moment to step back and look at something from a different angle will help us avoid getting stuck in the MBT Tariki, same old argument and helps us manage our feelings better. Developing that habit of searching for different and wider perspectives helps us to cope realistically and flexibly with difficulties as they arise. It gives us more MBT Panda options, broadens our experience and paves the way for new solutions.

We can also influence our perspective by altering our perception; literally by changing our viewpoint we can change our point of view. This can be a simple act such as shifting positioning a chair, sitting in a MBT Kimondo GTX,different chair or for meetings that have a history of intractability, try changing the venue. Our bodies and brains work in a unified system of interconnected feedback loops, so what we perceive via our senses affects what we think and vice versa.

In art, perspective first appeared in the Renaissance

In art, perspective first appeared in the Renaissance, as a system for making paintings look more like the real world, incorporating distance as well as size. Gradually the term broadened to refer to our MBT Changa Cork, mental outlook over time, as well as our visual. Of course, our mental and our visual outlooks are connected through the act of perception, but what are we really seeing?

We've all heard of the story of the blind men and the elephant; an unidentified creature wanders into the Land of the Blind and six wise men are sent to find out what it is. Each blind man approaches the MBT Salama,animal and according to what they each find from their respective positions the elephant turns out to be a wall, a spear, a snake, a tree, a rope or a fan. Each of the six blind men is convinced that he is right and therefore the others are wrong. A different approach, in which they shared their findings and invited input from each other, might have enabled them to put more of the pieces together and identify the elephant.

The elephant is also a metaphor for reality and just like reality it isn't static, it moves and changes and none of us are able to see the whole thing at any one time. We use our perception to connect with the outside world through sight, smell, texture and meaning, but far from delivering us a universally consistent view of the same old elephant our perception is shaped by our perspective.

Our perspectives are influenced by many factors, from external influences such as culture, religion, education or even advertising, to internal conditions such as illness, emotions or the effect of intoxicants. Does it feel different to go to the supermarket before or after lunch? Has the MBT Chapa,supermarket suddenly stocked the shelves with more delicious food than usual, or do we have a different perspective and are therefore seeing things differently? Do we see the world as it is, or as we are?

No matter what type of home remodeling project you are trying to accomplish

No matter what type of home remodeling project you are trying to accomplish, it can easily be done if it is planned properly; there are so many designs and staying clear headed and focused is not easy. Whether you are remodeling the outside or the inside, budgets for the project must also be carefully managed. The budget does control what gets done, whether the best materials are Nike Shox Rivalry,used and even those who will do the job so it is not a subject to be rushed.When you think of the task ahead, it is often best to hire services of a contractor who is experienced in the field and thus can give you the best results considering your requirements and budget. The cost of supplies will be a huge chunk of the overall cost so you should decide who is going to take charge for this aspect before the contractor starts any work.If you are living close to other people you might want to consider letting them know about your remodeling plans in case there will be any disturbance. Once you have done this it will be time to measure up exactly what is Kids' Nike Shox,required for the project but be very careful with this and double check everything as any errors on your part could prove expensive.

When a marriage has broken down

When a marriage has broken down, divorce is often inevitable and a divorce lawyer needs to be found; the following attributes are the most desirable:?*Have successfully practiced this area of law for some time *Have the proper demeanor *A conscientious person ?The best attorney to Nike Shox R4, employ is one who, for at least half their time, is dealing with divorce cases and is fully skilled in mediation techniques. They will need to be someone in whom you can place your trust and feel comfortable working with so if these criteria cannot be met then you will need to look elsewhere.Adversarial attorneys will use the hammer to crack a walnut approach which often happens when these cases go to court whereas an attorney who specializes in mediation will take a much calmer approach. To save time, always ensure you know exactly what you are going to say to your divorce lawyer and what questions you need answered.Whether you intend to see them or speak on the phone, write everything down as this is the most efficient way to utilize your legal representative and keep a record of dates and times you spoke with them. Try to keep actual meetings to a minimum and where points have to be clarified, use the phone or send a letter.Your divorce attorney is just a resource for legal matters so do not try to get them personally involved as that is not their function; if you need emotional support there are others who can help with this. Try not to involve you divorce lawyer with any tales of bickering that you and your ex-partner are involved in that are not directly pertinent to the divorce.The most important aspect for you to get sorted out is the control of the situation which should be yours and then you will be able to use your lawyer more effectively. It is important they know any decisions regarding the divorce are yours to make and they are there for their knowledge and experience in providing legal recommendations. Let them know that copies of any correspondence relating to the Nike Shox Dreams,case will need to be sent to you along with any other information and if you contact them, to reply as quickly as possible.Not all cases need a courtroom to be decided upon so you could employ a lawyer just to help you with a marital settlement, legal information or advice. For someone taking this route, it is only important that you approach a lawyer to have certain aspects explained once you have carried out you own research. It is not uncommon for people to draw up their own marital settlements with the help of a divorce lawyer who is familiar with the case.

How expensive is it for you to develop and test a new business model

How expensive is it for you to develop and test a new business model?

The answer differs a lot from industry to industry. If the costs are low, then you have very high potential to develop an improved business model. You will face few internal hurdles to doing the necessary early Nike Shox R5,experimentation. Conversely, if the costs are high, you will probably need to create an improved way to develop business models that is less expensive.

How risky is it for you to develop a test a new business model?

For some companies, reputation is so important, for example, that it is difficult to even test new things until they are almost perfect. In other industries, working with crude prototypes is the expectation.

What would you lose if your business model experiment fails in all of the predictable ways that it could? If not very much, what are you waiting for?

If much is at stake, consider ways to reduce the amount at risk or the visibility of your flops. Early experiments should be Nike Blazer, expected to create "learning" rather than solutions, so you need to have a way to get your learning on the cheap.

Has your company had a process aimed at developing improved business models

Has your company had a process aimed at developing improved business models?

New business processes almost always emerge from a deliberate process of innovation. If your company has yet to establish such a Nike Shox Deliver,process, chances are higher that you have a substantial backlog of opportunities for desirable new business models.

If you have such a process, does it look at business model innovation separately from product and technological innovation?

Many companies see new products and technologies as the only ways to provide increased benefits to customers and end users. As the coffee discussion suggested, it can be easier to add more value by turning a Nike Shox Cheap,product into a service than it is to focus only on improving the product itself.

For example, General Food's Maxwell House division had introduced flavored coffees conceptually like what you get in a coffee bar in the early 1970s. Few would argue that the taste and experience of these canned items are a match for what is offered at a Starbucks or a coffee bar using Starbucks products. Without a separate focus on designing and implementing new and better business models (that may include new products and technologies), you are probably missing most of your opportunities.

When was the last time your company changed its business model?

If the answer is more than two years ago, the odds favor there being a current opportunity to implement an improved business model.

How many times has the business model changed in your industry in the last ten years?

If the answer is less than three times, there is probably untapped potential for a new business model now.

Business concepts are all fine in the abstract

Business concepts are all fine in the abstract, but what do these business model innovation concepts potentially do for you? I want to share some questions designed to help you apply what you have been reading Nike Blazer Low, to your existing business.

What is your current business model?

If you offer many products and services, you may have more than one. Understanding how you operate now will make it easier to think about how you can improve upon the present.

In thinking about this question, you will find it helpful to focus first on what benefits customers get from what you provide. Also, consider what benefits the customers' customers get through to the end user of the product or service. In thinking about benefits, remember that Nike Shox Turbo, customers always want more and at a lower price. How does your business model accomplish that for them?

As an example, let's consider the Folger's coffee business at Procter & Gamble. That business is an industry leader in providing coffee-based products to allow consumers to have a tasty, comforting beverage at home that may or may not stimulate them with caffeine. The products are sold primarily through supermarkets, discounters, and warehouse clubs.

2008 has started out strong for me

2008 has started out strong for me.?I completed my first half marathon (13.1 miles!!!), secured some exciting new contracts, and have planned a great vacation for later this year.?I'm psyched.?And, I can't stop thinking things like:?Where am I going this year??What do I want to accomplish??What are my goals??What do I need to do to reach them? While this constant Christian Dior Sunglasses self-analysis causes me a certain sense of irritation and I'd like to relax a bit, it is also energizing. It provides direction, purpose, and momentum. Like it or not, the snowball is rolling and 2008 is underway.

As you think about the year before you, I challenge you to ask yourself, "What am I doing to build momentum for myself and my team?"

Your team looks to you to forge the path, to set the tone, to create the momentum.?This month, ask yourself and then ask your team these momentum-building questions:

  • What are our highest priorities for this year?
  • If we could accomplish just three things this year, what would be the most meaningful accomplishments?
  • When we get to December 31, 2008 and reflect back on our year, how will we have defined success??What will we be most proud of?
These questions, and questions like these, allow you to begin a conversation that creates momentum.?Providing vision and an Replica Oakley Sunglasses,exciting possible future is what all great leaders do.?Have you created momentum yet this year??

My father, William Finley

My father, William Finley, and I recently? compared views of the world of work.? When Dad was?the President of SCF of AZ?(he retired in 1987) there were certain "rules" that everyone in the workplace lived Louis Vuitton Sunglasses by.? They were the "laws" you followed if you wanted to get ahead.? A few of the beliefs that dominated the era were:

·???????? The Food Chain -You went to your boss with an idea or a concern and you didn't go any higher up the ladder?unless you were given permission to do so. Chain of command was respected.

·???????? Formality - My dad was referred to as "Mr. Finley."? Men wore ties and women wore skirts with panty hose.

·???????? Work Ethic - You arrived on time and were ready to go when the proverbial whistle blew.? "Work ethic" meant you gave 40 hours of work for 40 hours of pay.

·???????? Motivation - You worked for pay and benefits and that was good enough.? If you had fun at work, that was a bonus.?

Don't get me wrong.? Dad was a progressive manager.? He actively promoted women to leadership roles and endorsed extensive professional development opportunities for all staff members.? He was highly Prada Sunglasses,respected and well-liked as a leader. Still, my conversation with him reminded me of how things have changed.? Here are a few of the "new rules" as I see it:

·???????? Success comes from building relationships. Often that means that the chain of command may not be as relevant as it used to be.? It's who you know and who trusts you that allows you to get things done.

·???????? The world is less formal and more relaxed today.? We rarely call people by their surnames and in many organizations we observe casual dress. Still, we must be professional, which is defined by the organizational culture.? Those who are most successful today?are acutely aware of the cultural expectations of their organization.

These rules apply to most print advertising as well as TV and radio

These rules apply to most print advertising as well as TV and radio. Of course you need to grab the reader/viewer/listener's Nike Air Presto,attention, but don't do it with your name unless you're McDonald's and it's lunchtime.

How are you doing with your advertising?

Always remember, before you make a media buy to think it through, don't get pressured, and do some research so you can make sure to reach your target market, not just get a good deal. If you don't have a Nike Shox NZ,Marketing Plan, then get one. If you don't have time to do it, then hire someone who knows what they're talking about and spend your marketing dollars wisely, not haphazardly.

Then find out the actual number of publications

Then find out the actual number of publications they print - their circulation, not their readership (that's a fluffed up number). Then you can compare your options by the cost per 1000 households in case you have more than one good option and can only do one.

I can't really tell you which ads to run or where to place your ad dollars in this email since you all have different businesses, however Nike Air Presto instead of looking at all the other ads to determine what you should put in your ad; you need to think like your customer and what will attract THEM to your ad.

Do they care what your name is? NO, so don't put it at the top of your ad, put it at the bottom with all your contact info and logo. They will have specific "Hot Buttons" that they care about and you need to address those in your heading.

Here are some tips:

- Try reversing your ad if you can't afford color.

- Use big bold headings to grab attention.

- Identifying your customer's Hot Buttons is the key to a more effective ad. You have 1.5 - 3 seconds to grab someone's attention in any medium.

Do you know how many different yellow page books there are that cover your area? There's probably at least 3-4. Everyone in your Nike Shox TL1,area gets them all, which one or more do you advertise in? The cheapest you say? WRONG.

Are you spending a ton of money in those darn yellow pages?

Are you spending a ton of money in those darn yellow pages?

Well, in some industries you need to unfortunately - like businesses that tend to get called in an emergency - plumbers, Nike Blazer Low electricians, dentists and so on. However, the majority of us may not need to.

I'm not telling you to go out and cancel all your ads; however I do recommend that you actually LOOK at the book (or publication) you want to buy in before you get sold by the salesperson.

See how many advertisers in your category are in there and how big they are. If there are 10-15 full page ads and another 10 half page ads, then this may be a good medium for you, however you will either need to spend a ton of money to get in the top 5-10 ads OR you will need to design your ad Nike Shox Turbo,so it stands out among the others instead and be smaller OR just have a listing if you can't compete and use your money more effectively elsewhere (for yellow pages).

For other newspapers and magazines - make sure to check the demographics of the publication to make sure first that they will hit your target market. So many small business owners DON'T DO THIS.

The disadvantage of this is that the present class will not earn anything

The disadvantage of this is that the present class will not earn anything from the re-designed curriculum. Only the next classes will.One test that may be applied to trainees is a normal assessment test. This may include communication skills—written and spoken. This may also incorporate Police Sunglasses,product knowledge tests that measure the retention of the person about the things that he has learned. Another common test measurement or assessment is practical application. This is mostly used in companies that require the ability and efficiency to use certain tools—manual or computer—because these tools are crucial in the productivity of the employee. Failure to use these tools may translate to the trainees as inability to contribute to the company’s production.Another means is a psychometric test. This measures the intelligence and aptitude of a potential employee and it determines a sense of balance with how the employee thinks. These tests are very objective in determining learning opportunities for individuals as well as their areas for development, not only at work, but also as a person. It is a means of measuring how people should be developed. This also aligns the employees’ personal goals to the company’s organizational goals.In summation, expertise in training must be applied in all industries and companies. Not only will this Bvlgari Sunglasses,help in achieving one’s goal, but this will significantly reduce the number of unequipped personnel that do not contribute to the company’s growth at all. Not because it is their fault, but because the company failed to invest in training measurements and tools that are necessary to assess what is needed.

Before one can even think of what training measurements

Before one can even think of what training measurements should be used, proper expectations should be set to trainees. People undergoing training should be prepared and should have a clear understanding what the training is for and what the expected output should be. It is very unwise to Carrera Sunglasses,,move on to teaching individuals without them knowing what the training is all about. To do this, one must follow a simple structure or approach.First off, the students should be relaxed. This may be done through an orientation and getting to know all the participants of the class. It is a fact that training can be stressful for the first day since the participants do not know each other. Second, before measuring training output, the objectives of the training should be made clear to each participant. The skill set should be well-defined and structured. Third, the trainee should be given ample time to review and practice what was taught them. This may include role-playing sessions and actual practice. Demonstrations by experts will also help a lot so trainees can get to feel how the job is done.Moving on to training measurements, the intention of this is to identify which processes during the training are not applicable at all. Aside from measuring the performance of a student, it is also necessary to measure how the class was conducted, as it directly affects how the knowledge was transferred. This may be done by conducting a Oakley Sunglasses training needs analysis to identify what procedures are no longer useful for the class.

If you are an insurance agent that is looking for insurance leads

If you are an insurance agent that is looking for insurance leads, more than likely you are looking for policies in the area of auto, home owners, or life insurance. It makes the most sense because this is where the higher commission is.

Due to the fact that most business insurance customers are seeking insurance policies for start up businesses where the premiums Chanel Sunglasses, are not all that high, the business insurance lead is not highly sought after by insurance professionals.

Also, for these same reasons the customer in need of business insurance has trouble finding someone to fill their business insurance policy for them.

Here is something for Insurance agents to consider when it comes to working with business insurance leads.

If you take the time to help a customer out with their business insurance needs and take the time to build a relationship with them, in no small way will they be overly appreciative of the fact that you took the time to help them.

Remember, you are with them in the beginning and you are a major component for helping them get their fledgling business off the ground. The trust and loyalty they will have in you is second to none.

Because of the relationship and the trust you have built with this customer they will be more than likely, and more than happy to do all of their personal insurance business with you. Which of course leads to life insurance, car insurance, home owners insurance, etc.

Or, at the very least you will have their ear when it comes time to explaining your products and services and the savings that you can offer them.

Also important is finding the right insurance lead company to work with.

Look for the insurance lead companies that sell fresh, real time business insurance leads, and one with which you can start out with a low minimum deposit.

This concept has been tested and has worked for many insurance agents so it may be something you want to consider.

So the next time you find a break in your day or an opening on your calendar, invest in a handful of business insurance leads and see if Fendi Sunglasses, can build a relationship with a small business customer.

While I do not need any extensive research

While I do not need any extensive research to tell me that I am vastly increasing our productivity (I can see it myself everyday), there are several studies that are coming out that are promoting the advantages of dual monitors.

In a recent study from the University of Utah, people using two 20-inch monitors were 44% faster than those that used a single Ferragamo Sunglasses,18-inch monitor.? For the many businesses that are strapped with the need for additional personnel, they must ask – do I really need employees or do I need the proper equipment for the employees I have?

Microsoft Researchers conducted user studies at determining the effectiveness of adding a second monitor to their workstations.? Their findings report that dual monitors increased productivity Roberto Cavalli Sunglasses,anywhere from 9% to 50% depending upon the person performing the tasks and the type of task

That means you need to be sensible

That means you need to be sensible and practical your entire life. No splurge spending on your dream car, or vacations in paradise. After all you are saving for your future!

Saving for your future is a great habit. But most of us just don't have the self-discipline to be successful at it. Personally, I would rather earn money MBT Fumba,fast so I don't have to sacrifice to save. I want to spend money on things that make my current life rewarding. Patience has never been one of my strong suits. If you can make the save and invest method happen, I applaud you.

Bottom Line: You can become a millionaire by saving wisely. But life is not guaranteed. How do you know you will be around to benefit from all your scrimping and saving?

Start Your Own Business

As far as I'm concerned, this is really your own option. The first three methods are either out of your control, or take so long that it may not be worth the wait. Generating extra income through your own business gives you the best odds of success.

Owning your own business gives you control over your income. Your success is solely dependent on your efforts. You don't have to be dependent on your boss for your next raise, fate to give you the winning ticket, decades of time to earn interest and MBT Kisumu Sandals,dividends, or death to take away a family member.

This one is pretty straightforward

Inherit Money

This one is pretty straightforward. You either come from money or you don't. Movies are full of stories about people inheriting millions unexpectedly from
, MBT Baridi,long-lost relatives, but don't count on it. Even if you do have rich relatives, you could wait years and years before the millions become your own.

Bottom Line: It's not your money, so don't waste your life waiting for it.

Win the Lottery

The odds of winning the lottery in a single state lottery are about 18 million to one. Looking to win one of the multi-state Mega-Millions? Your odds of winning jump as high as 120 million to 1.

Your odds of being struck by lightening are about 2.65 million to one. You are 6 to 45 times more likely to be struck by lightening than to strike it rich on your next lottery ticket.

Bottom Line: Buying that lottery ticket is about MBT Habari Sandals, as productive for your financial future as striking a match to that dollar and watching it burn.

Save Money

Finally, a guaranteed way to become a millionaire! If you discipline yourself to save and safely invest 10% of your income from the time you are 18, there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that you will have accumulated at least a million dollars by the MBT Panda Sandals,time you are ready to retire at 65.

More importantly, we weres able to forward

More importantly, we weres able to forward Mac's movie to a friend who's daughter was scheduled for surgery in just a few days, and to some other people who are currently struggling. That made all of us feel good because we have MBT Baridi Shoes,hope it has helped them, and we believe it made them feel good, because they now know that others care about them and their lives.

Whether your are in a bad situation or in the best place in your life right now, we like to encourage you to use the link below and watch the movie Mac sent to us. If it applies, use it to motivate yourself to get back up and keep moving forward. If it doesn't currently fit, download it or save the link, so you have it when you need it.

So, you want to be a millionaire.

It's a big goal, and for most people there are only four options to make it happen. You can inherit money, win money, save money or earn money.

In other words, you can inherit money from a rich MBT Kisumu, relative, win the lottery, save for most of your life, or earn a million in your own business.

If, on the other hand

If, on the other hand, we think and believe in the good things in the world, keep our hopes up, channel our positive energy towards MBT Shoes Clearance, success even when things aren't going perfectly, the universe and its' Law of Attraction will bring those things closer to us that will actually allow us to reach our goals and succeed.

Many people have actually experienced this situation more than once, and its always amazing. anybody can admit that it isn't always easy to keep a positive mind set and think the positive thoughts. Not too long ago we got into a situation where MBT Boost several projects all came to an end at the same time, and we began to wonder if we will have any new work any time soon.

Knowing that dwelling on the possibility of failure wouldn't help, we began to activate our network, listen to what gurus in the field say and suggest, and worked very focused on developing new opportunities. Guess what - the universe listened and now we have a number of new projects in the pipeline that have us more excited than ever.

For anybody who has read previous articles for any length of time, you will know that we are always for letting others participate in achievements. In this case that means that our anxiety to run into trouble and its solution should be turned around into something positive. Mac Anderson couldn't know that things had already turned into a very MBT Sport,positive movement when he sent us his message this morning. We still watched what he had send us because one never knows when you need a solution in future desperate times.

Let's start at the beginning

Let's start at the beginning: We have found, and we believe many of you might be able to relate, that we listen to certain things when we are actually in need. If things are going well and we are healthy, we don't listen much to all the healthier eating and diet advertisements. When we feel good, we don't pay much attention to the ads about new pills or pharmaceuticals. A similar thing applies when you are in business. When lots of projects and contracts are in the pipeline and you actually have a waiting list or can barely cover all the commitments you've made, you don't pay much attention to all the messages about how to improve marketing, become more successful, and improve your situation.

When, on the other hand, money isn't rolling in on a regular basis, prices keep increasing, and you begin to wonder how to make all the payments for the bills you know will come in at the end of the month, a certain level of desperation begins to set in. The movie "The Secret" provided a nice solution on a theoretical level for such circumstances. It basically said that there is a universal, natural law that governs what we receive.

It is called the "Law of Attraction".

This law is supposedly followed by all the energies in the universe. When we think about all the things that could cause us to fail, from the little things like failing to find a parking spot in front of the store in the pouring rain, to the big things, like making enough revenue to pay the help and the bills, we will attract this negativity and the associated circumstances, and what we are afraid of will actually happen.

If you include the actual array in the argument

If you include the actual array in the argument, you can designate the array by enclosing the values and dates

arguments inside braces. To show the preceding date MBT Chapa,values in an array, for example, you would type the

following:

{"1/1/2000","12/31/2000","4/15/2001","12/31/2001"}

To show the preceding cash flow values as an MBT Changa Cork,array, you would type the following:

{-1000,-1000,2000,1000}

If you enter the date values and cash flow values in worksheet ranges, you don’t need to worry about

identifying the date values and cash flow values as arrays. For example, if you enter the preceding set of date

values in the worksheet range A1:A4 and the preceding set of cash flow values in the worksheet range B1:B4, you

can use these worksheet ranges as the function arguments.

The XIRR and XNPV functions, predictably, require you to use date values that are valid. You must also use the

same number of date values as you use cash flow values. If you supply an invalid argument or set of arguments,

Excel returns the #NUM error value.

NOTE: Excel considers the first date value to be the starting date of the investment. Accordingly, the first

date value in your array or worksheet range must be the MBT Kimondo GTX earliest. Subsequent date values don't have to be in

chronological order, however.

The settlement date specifies the date the bond is settled

The settlement date specifies the date the bond is settled, or purchased. The maturity date specifies the date

the bond matures, or expires. You may enter these date arguments either as text strings enclosed in quotation

marks or as serial date values.

The frequency argument gives the number of coupon payments made each year: you specify 1 to indicate an annual

coupon, 2 to indicate a semiannual coupon, and 4 to indicate a quarterly coupon.

The basis argument specifies the number of days in the month and year assumed for the date calculations. You

specify the basis as 0 for the US (or NASD) version of 30 days in a month and 360 days in a year; as 1 for the

actual number of days in the month and actual number of days; 2 for the actual number of days in the month but

360 days in a year; 3 for the actual number of days in the month and 365 days in a year; and 4 for the European

version of 30 days in a month and 360 days in a year.

NOTE Excel uses only the integer portion of the arguments you supply to the add-in coupon date functions. If

you enter an argument with decimal values, Excel truncates the argument to just its integer component.

Common Bond Coupon Date Function Errors

The coupon date functions return an error value in several predictable cases:

? If you use an invalid date, Excel returns #VALUE.

? If you use a frequency argument other than 1, 2, or 4, Excel returns #NUM.

? If you use a day-count-basis switch other than 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4, Excel returns #NUM.

? If the settlement day follows the maturity date, Excel returns #NUM.

Using the COUPDAYBS Function

The COUPDAYBS function calculates the number of days from the last coupon payment date to the settlement date

given the settlement date, maturity date, coupon frequency, and basis. It uses the following syntax:

COUPDAYBS (settlement, maturity, frequency,basis)

For example, suppose you want to calculate the number of days from the last coupon payment date to the

settlement date in the following situation: Someone purchases a 10-year bond on November 26, 2000, with a

maturity date of April 30, 2008. The bond pays coupons twice a year based on the US, or NASD, assumption. To

make this calculation, you use the following formula:

COUPDAYBS ("11/26/2000","4/30/2008",2,0)

The function returns the value 26.

Using the COUPDAYS Function

The COUPDAYS function calculates the number of days in the coupon period that includes the settlement date

given the settlement date, the maturity date, the coupon frequency, and the day count basis. It uses the

following syntax:

COUPDAYS (settlement, maturity, frequency, basis)

For example, suppose you want to calculate the number of days in the coupon payment in the following situation:

Someone purchases a 10-year bond on November 26, 2000, with a maturity date of April 30, 2008. The bond pays

its coupon twice a year based on the US, or NASD, assumption. To make this calculation, you use the following

formula:

=COUPDAYS("11/26/2000","4/30/2008",2,0)

The function returns the value 180.
