These Incredible Careers Will Give You A Sense Of Purpose

by

There are so many choices when deciding what you want to be in life. It can be hard to narrow it down to one particular option. But, if you want a career where you get the sense that you’re changing the world or making a difference that does narrow the board down a little. Here are some of the best careers that will give you an incredible sense of purpose.

 

Teach Me Something

 

Yes, it’s true being a teacher might be hard work, but it’s also incredibly rewarding. You can impart knowledge onto the next generation and help shape the new world of students who will soon become adults. You can work with the little ones just as they are starting to grow or help kids through their teenage years. It’s entirely up to you.

 

Incredibly Close, Impossibly Far

 

Or, how about heading to a country where people are really in need? You can work a charity officer in some of the most dire places across the continent of Africa or the middle-east. There, you can help build houses, provide water supplies or even teach English skills. There are so many jobs available out there, at least one is guaranteed to match your skill set.

 

Delivering New Life

 

As a midwife, you’ll be delivering babies into the world. You’ll be there when the miracle happens, and it will be your responsibility to make sure the baby is delivered safely. This is one of the most incredible experiences in life, and you’ll see hundreds of births through your career. You can learn more about this in the infographic below.

How To Stay Out Of The Firing Line

Most people would agree that losing their job causes lots of hassle. You’d start worrying about money because you wouldn’t know when your next paycheck would arise. You’d also have to spend a long time updating your CV and applying for new roles. That would be a real shame, especially if you love your current position. With that in mind, there are some excellent tips in this article that should make sure you’re never in the firing line. If you take heed and put this advice into practice, you could become one of the best employees in the company. With a bit of luck, that should help to ensure your job is always secure.

 

Never arrive at work under the influence

 

Drugs and alcohol could have a drastic effect on your career. I’m not judging anyone here, but you can’t turn up to work when you’re under the influence. That means you need to stop drinking at a suitable time each evening if you like a couple of cans with your dinner. Smart employers will use breathalyzers and a 13 panel drug test if they become suspicious. So, there is no way of avoiding the issue, and you will get caught out. Substances of that nature will reduce productivity, and you could pose a risk to other members of your team. Whatever you do, don’t be stupid enough to go to work when you’re still steaming.

 

Always go above and beyond for your employer

 

You need to go the extra mile if you want to become an invaluable company asset. That could mean staying half an hour late some evenings to complete orders. It could also mean coming up with new ideas and presenting them to your boss. You could even offer to cover shifts when people call in sick or something like that. Just make sure the employer knows you are 100% dedicated to their operation. If they have to get rid of anyone, it’s going to be the people who lack enthusiasm. Always arrive with a smile on your face, use your initiative, and make sure you’re as busy as possible. You boss will take notice.

 

Arrive in a prompt manner every day

 

For employers, nothing is worse than a worker who turns up late. It’s going to happen from time to time, and that’s often unavoidable. However, you should never let it become a regular thing. You know the time you’re supposed to start work in the mornings, and so there is no excuse for poor timekeeping. If you want to keep your job for as long as possible and earn a lot of money, you need to show punctuality. Ideally, you should aim to arrive at least ten minutes before the working day is set the begin.
I hope you’ve learned something important today about your attitude towards the workplace. If you’re going to mess around and take advantage, you will never find yourself in a stable position. Take my advice, and your employer will never even consider the concept of firing you. Hard-working team members aren’t easy to find these days, and your boss knows it.

Reasons Why Travelling Is More Essential Than Ever

by

Travelling has never been so accessible. Planes, trains, boats and buses, link us to far-flung corners of the world. It’s never been so easy to travel across the world. Of course, the cost implications are still there. Flights, accommodation, and even food can all be expensive add-ons of any trip. There are so many compelling reasons to travel, though, and if you do get the chance you should definitely go. If you need more convincing take a look at this list of some of the benefits of traveling…

 

Increased Confidence and Acceptance

 

Traveling is tough. It’s not all beaches and blue skies. If the planning wasn’t hard enough, there are hurdles you’ll have to overcome whilst traveling too. Depending on where you go, locals may not always speak your language. Communicating with other travelers and locals will require social skills and confidence. The ability to communicate with lots of different people is a hugely transferable skill. Even in our everyday lives at home, the ability to converse with all kinds of people opens up new possibilities. Meeting different kinds of people, with conflicting histories and cultures to our own, also forces us to become more accepting and open-minded.

 

Career Prospects

Traveling may seem like an extended holiday, but it could increase your career prospects. Traveling used to be looked at as a way to escape from the responsibilities of our lives. Today, however, it is viewed as a learning experience that can enrich our lives. Employers understand that traveling entails problem-solving, great communication, confidence, and coping under pressure. These skills are easily adaptable to most jobs. Whether you’re camping or staying in hostels and hotels, organization is also an essential skill.

 

Learning

The costs of living at home are so high. With rising electricity rates, shopping bills, and rent prices, our money doesn’t seem to go very far. Travelling, although there is an initial outlay, is a great way to invest in your future. The amount you’ll learn will be invaluable and could be more beneficial than slaving away at your current job. Learning about different cultures, ways of life, even map reading, are all skills you can develop abroad!

 

The Chance to Relax and Reassess

 

Of course, traveling should also be fun and relaxing. At home, with a job and other commitments, it can be difficult to find the time to assess what we want out of life. Laying underneath the stars, or gazing at a stunning vista, is an opportune time to self-reflect! You’ll have plenty of opportunities to quietly contemplate where you’re heading and what you want to achieve. You may find that you return home with a renewed sense of motivation or a completely new purpose. Having some time to meditate about what truly makes you happy could see your life heading in different directions when you return home.
There’s never been a better time to travel. If you’re lucky enough, take full advantage of the amazing transport links and start planning your next adventure!

Why Every Company Needs Professional Marketing Materials

by

Companies generate a lot of “literature,” including things like letterheads, catalogs, brochures, annual reports, manuals, and posters. They’re an important part of the company’s image and essential for marketing purposes.

 

The problem, however, is that many companies don’t take them seriously enough. In fact, they often try to do them in-house with disastrous consequences. As Entrepreneur points out, appearance is everything in marketing, and so getting your public image right really counters.

 

Here are some tips for successfully utilizing your company’s literature.

 

Get A Professionally Designed Logo

 

Your business logo will appear all over the place: on your website, on your letters to clients and on your invoices. As a result, it needs to look half decent. Right now there are a bunch of off-the-shelf logo design packages you can use to generate your own logo. But the problem with these is that they rarely offer you the sort of customization and flexibility you need to make your logo unique. Instead, you end up with something that looks very similar to what’s already out there.

 

Designing your own logo on a computer using publishing software is also a bad idea unless you’re an expert. Again, it all comes down to how logos are put together. Professionals understand that when designing a logo, it’s essential to use a format that can be scaled across multiple platforms and documents, otherwise it can look stretched and warped.

 

Give Your Literature A Family Feel

When printing the literature for your firm, it’s a good idea to make sure that it has a “family feel.” Essentially what that means is that each individual piece doesn’t have to be identical, but people need to be able to tell that they are related. Lay out all of your designs on a table and ask yourself and your colleagues whether it looks like all the pieces have come from the same company. Is everything compatible and recognizable?

 

Invest In Quality Photography

 

If the rise of sites like Instagram and Pinterest are anything to go by, photography is becoming more and more important in marketing. Often, though, small companies scrimp on photography expenses, doing a second-rate job as a result.

It turns out that photography is a better investment than many small businesses think. It’s now something that really helps to set businesses apart from one another. Great snaps draw in big audiences and make your business seem professional. Poor shots make you look amateurish and small-scale. Photography, therefore, is an investment in the future of your firm.

Appoint One Person Your Lit Boss

 

The literature that your business produces isn’t static. It changes with the season, with your product cycle and with your special offers and promotion. At least one person should be responsible for coordinating all of this and making sure that the new material fits the design language of the old. Giving one person the final say helps to avoid your marketing materials taking a design detour into the unknown. Every piece of literature your company produces needs to be purposeful and designed for it’s intended audience.

What’s Inside The Box? Assembling The Perfect Toolbox

by

toolbox_226362564

Home renovations don’t spring up from the ground. To make your house a home you are going to need the right tools. And you are going to have to put those tools in a box. Hence, you need a toolbox if you have any plans on renovating or improving your home in the future. The good news is you don’t have to go to much hassle to get everything you need for a simple bit of DIY. All you need, in fact, is this handy guide that tells you how to assemble the perfect toolbox.

 

Don’t Be Satisfied

 

It isn’t okay to buy a few tools and sit back and enjoy a beer. Well, it isn’t if you want a toolbox that actually has some use. A great toolbox is full of tools that may come in handy in any and every event. The best example is a screwdriver. A screwdriver is an essential piece of kit, but there are two different types. If you don’t have a Phillips’ head, say, you won’t be able to tackle the problems that need a Phillips’ head screwdriver. There are plenty of tools that have very subtle differences, and you need to collect them all.

800px-phillips_screwdriver_and_screw

Buy For The Future

 

The reason a good toolbox is full of tools is because every DIYer knows you have to buy with the future in mind. Sure, you can buy tools as you need them to keep the cost low. Plus, it makes maintaining the equipment a lot easier. But, just like the Phillips’ head example, you will come up against a problem you have never seen before. And when that happens, the odds are high you won’t have the right tools if you only buy them when necessary. With a quick look to the future, you can estimate what you will need in certain situations. If you don’t think you can do that, just look at the most common issues and buy tools accordingly.

 

Power Is King

 

Manual tools are handy; there is no doubt about that. But, they are a lot slower and less efficient than power tools. Power tools, as the name suggests, have the ability to turn daunting renovations into quick fixes. So, even the biggest novice can learn how to put up a shelf or change a light bulb. With the help of Drills and Drivers, you’ll be able to do much more. A good power tool is hard to come by, and that’s why you need to review any that you buy. There is plenty on the market, and picking one isn’t easy. As a result, it isn’t too difficult to choose one that isn’t right. Remember: a little bit of research goes a long way.

A toolbox might not seem like the most important thing in the world at this moment. But, when you start making changes to your home, you will soon see how important they are to the process. It is impossible to do it yourself without one, and just as hard without the right tools. Thankfully, you don’t have to worry about that any longer.

Lowering Your Business Bills? It’s All In The Technology

by

Business expenses can mount up pretty quickly, and sometimes it can feel like you’re in the business of solely signing check after check. When will it end? When will it end?! Alas, most probably never – but, there are ways you can lower your bills. It’s all about using technology to make your business more efficient. If you – and your company – have been living in the dark ages of old, then read on and you might just find ways to improve your business profits.

Up in the Clouds

 

Hard Drives and other traditional storage types aren’t necessarily expensive by themselves, but they can cause high costs – and massive headaches – down the line if they were to fail. Why? Because when a hard drive breaks, you’re not just paying to replace the broken piece of kit: you’re paying to replace all the information that was stored on them. This can set your company back, right back to the beginning if you’re still developing. By moving to a cloud storage, you’ll be getting inexpensive, reliable storage that absolutely will not fail you. If you’re technology is damaged, then no worries, because your important data is still out there, online.

 

Transitioning to Digital

 

In this day and age, there’s little reason to use old ways of doing things. They’re often more expensive, less reliable, and produce huge amounts of waste. VoIP and business phone solutions can cut down the cost of a telephone line and calls, which can be significant if you’re constantly on the phones with clients – and the calls can be taken from a wide range of mediums, which mean you’re more likely to be reached. Also, moving all your paper documents to digital, and using digital screens rather than printing each page can be a money saver when spread over a long period.

 

Upgrading Your Systems

 

Sometimes you have to spend money to make money. If you’re using outdated technology, then there’s every chance that you’re losing valuable manpower hours as staff wait for things to load, the computer runs slowly, or you have a computer not capable of running the latest time saving apps. Giving your technological infrastructure a much needed boost and you’ll notice productivity increase. It might not exactly lower the bills, but it’ll bring extra revenue – which is even better.

 

Working from Afar

 

Having staff on site can be a costly business. There are rooms to heat, tea and coffee to provide, and so on. In many cases, people are able to telecommute, and are definitely able to if they work exclusively online. There are many apps available for meetings should they be required, also. Cutting down on the amount of hours people spend in the office has other benefits too, such as making people work more productively and boosting employee morale.

What Have You Already Got?

 

Before you splash out on new technology, have a look to see what you’ve already got. Many people buy one item (say, a printer) for a single job, not knowing that it can do many other tasks too (print; copy, scan, etc).

How To Best A Lack Of Rest

by

pexels-photo-46100

Picture Source

 

It’s all good and well to tell yourself you need to sleep, but, like many of our worries, switching our brain off isn’t really something we can control. It’s letting go of the need to control which helps us finally shut down and drift off into relaxation or a restful night’s sleep. You shouldn’t be forcing anything or your restlessness will worsen. You fall asleep when your body and mind are both entirely relaxed, so this piece of advice makes sense, when you really think about it.

 

Of course, you most likely already know that your stresses and worries are the things which keep you awake, but that doesn’t mean you know how to simply relax and doze off at the end of a highly charged and chaotic day, whether you’re in the middle of a taxing project for your company or facing exams which determine your future at school. Either way, here are some pieces of advice for those of you looking for better ways to fall asleep and form a better sleeping pattern.

 

Work up a sweat.

However tired you are in the evening depends on what kind of day you might have had. The best way to calm a stressed mind at night is to calm it during the day, and exercise is a great way to do this. Better yet, you’re not only calming your thoughts and creating much more level thought patterns, but you’re tiring your body, which means you’ll welcome sleep more easily in the evening.

 

Self-training.

You need to be strict with yourself. You should be putting together a regular bedtime routine, because sometimes we don’t feel physically tired, even though our body craves and demands sleep. If we rely solely on “feeling tired” to determine when we should go to bed, that’s how our sleeping pattern ends up becoming messy and fluctuating frequently. A good guide is to aim for eight hours sleep per night, but going to bed and waking up at the same time every day is the most important thing. In terms of the length of your sleep, that’s an individual matter; it will vary for each individual. Some people only require seven hours sleep, and eight hours might be over-sleeping. On the other end of the spectrum, some people require nine or ten hours sleep, and eight hours might be under-sleeping. You can’t believe all the folk myths you hear. Listen to your own body. You know how much sleep you should be getting, because you’re clearly not getting enough at the moment if you’re reading this.

 

It’s all about your mind over matter. You shouldn’t be over-thinking it; you should be under-thinking. Sleep is a process whereby your body heals and regenerates, and that includes resting your mind. Allow your thoughts to drift off naturally, whatever may come into your mind. You could look into nutritional coaching services, if you’re still struggling to drift off, because there may be a medical reason for your insomnia..

 

No technology.

Your body and mind need time to shut down before you fall asleep, which means you shouldn’t be taking your phone or laptop to bed with you. You might think you have insomnia or some deeply rooted sleeping problem, but anxiety or stress might not be the causes at all. It could be simply that you’re scrolling through social media whilst lying in bed, and then expecting to fall asleep immediately after putting your phone down. You should give yourself an hour of no technology before falling asleep. Read a book, perhaps.

Business Growth Blunders To Avoid

by

From Public Domain Pictures

 

I’ve been writing business features for a while now, and in that time, I’ve come across a lot of small and large businesses that fail to hit their targets in terms of growth, or wind up growing at an extremely slow rate. Then there are those that go through a period of massive exponential growth, but have owners who don’t know how to handle it! If you want to hit your targets in terms of growth, you need to understand the factors that affect it, and avoid the major blunders that a lot of entrepreneurs seem to make. Here are a few big mistakes you need to avoid when it comes to stimulating growth…

Having a Poor Mindset

If a business owner doesn’t have the right mindset for stimulating their operation, and generally going the extra mile with the work they’re putting in, it can be a serious strain on the company’s potential for success. Many uphold that success in business is 90% in the owner’s mindset, and 10% practical work. I wouldn’t say this is entirely true, but hey, it drives my point home! You need to have the courage to take risks, and the logical shrewdness to know which ones are worth taking, and which could blow up in your face. Even when things knock you down, you need to have the resilience to bounce back and carry on striving towards your next big milestone.

Bad Hiring

13903385550_39f7316982_n

From Flickr

As your business grows and develops, you’re going to need to hire people in to take care of various tasks. When running your recruitment drives, it’s essential that you try to avoid any missteps, and thoroughly scour your pool of talent for the very best people for the role. A single bad hire can cost your business tens of thousands in a short space of time, and poison an otherwise positive workplace culture. The really bad ones can be the root of HR and employment law disputes, which may send you high-tailing it for companies like Ellis Whittam. If there’s one common mistake made by small business owners, it’s having a recruitment process which isn’t demanding enough. If you’re running on a simple application and an interview, it may be time to add a few more layers to the recruitment process. Have questionnaires and several interviews, possibly even group exercises with rival candidates. If they’re a creative, then have them do a trial piece of work. I know, this sounds gruelling, and that’s the idea! If a candidate makes it to the end of this process, you’ll know one thing for sure: they’re willing to jump through hoops when they’re asked, and they have a genuine interest in working for your company. This means that they’ll be much more receptive to training and ongoing guidance in the job.

Neglecting the Website and SEO

It’s 2017, and that means that as a business owner, your company website needs to be one more money-making part of the overall operation. Despite this, countless business owners maintain websites which have never made a penny, and exist purely for marketing purposes. While a good website can certainly be a great marketing tool, you need to make sure that you’re getting the most out of yours. Different company sites require different approaches, but there are certain universal principles you can follow to ensure it garners a better conversion rate. First of all, make sure it’s educational. Before they decide whether or not to buy from your company, your target market is just going to want information and education from the site. Next, be sure to include an opt-in box with a decent level of white space. This is a great tool for getting new customers’ names and email addresses. Finally, you need to pay some attention to your organic SEO ranking. A lot of small businesses will invest in PPC, and assume that this is all the marketing you need in a modern, digital age. However, if you’re not doing anything that will reap in organic (through normal search results) traffic, you’re inevitably going to fall behind your competitors. Whether you hire a full-time in-house team, or outsource the work to a company like SEO Professor, you can’t afford to neglect this facet of online marketing.

While growth is necessary if you want your business to be as successful as possible, there’s a right way and a wrong way to stimulate it. As you start to expand and develop, keep these mistakes in mind, and do everything in your power to avoid them!

4 Businesses That Your Own Business Isn’t Making Use Of

by

Businesses need other businesses to survive, that’s a no-brainer. However, there are many business owners that refuse to use another business’s services due to bad blood or arguments in the past, and there are some business owners that are so blinded by their own success that they won’t be willing to invest money into their company to grow it if it means supporting another business.

 

This is a very stubborn way to go about running your company, but it’s something that admittedly everyone suffers from at the beginning. However, here are four different businesses that you probably aren’t utilising enough that could have a huge impact on your business’s success.

Software Developers

 

Computers can do a lot for your business, but most software packages come off the shelf and they’re made for very general uses. What many large companies actually do is hire software developers to create bespoke software for very specific purposes. This eliminates the need to pay a monthly or annual license subscription for a software package, and it means that you get the features you need and nothing extra. This makes teaching your employees how to use the software much easier, and since they can operate it more efficiently it helps to make your business run smoothly.

 

Specialised Delivery Services

 

No, this doesn’t mean fast food deliveries like pizza and burgers. What this refers to is specialised delivery services such as fuel or large appliances. Many business owners get their equipment and supplies from large corporations that specialise in office equipment, but did you know that you could get better equipment and more reliable customer service if you decided to speak with a dedicated business? For instance, you could always go to a petrol station to fill up your transportation vehicles, but how about getting it delivered straight to your doorstep by a company like New Era Fuels? It saves time, money in the long run, and a lot of hassle. If you need computers, why order from an office supplies store? Why not contact a computer expert and get your computers built and delivered by a professional?

 

Web Development

 

An online presence is incredibly important, and sadly not many businesses are utilising the internet well enough to make an online impact. Make sure that your website is fresh, clean and accessible on mobile devices as well as computers. You can do this by using online tools, or you could outsource web development to professionals. Either way, ensure that you have a great looking website with all the information your customers need.

 

Social Media Management
This is another thing that can be outsourced. If you’re serious about making an impact on the internet, then you need someone who is dedicated to following online trends and promoting your business through social channels like Facebook and Instagram. With the correct amount of online marketing, your business can spread through social media like a virus and your company will be the first name people think of when they think about your industry.

Go Green With These 3 Business Ideas

by

Being eco-friendly is more than just a trend, it’s something everyone should aspire to be. By everyone, I mean individuals and businesses alike. Keeping that in mind, here are some green business ideas you might find interesting:

Organic Food Food Fresh Healthy Nutritious Organic

Organic Catering Business

When people think about green business ideas, they tend to focus on things revolving around recycling or renewable energy. However, what you forget is that a lot of damage is done to the environment in the food industry. Companies are making processed foods in huge factories that are pumping out gallons of toxic fumes every day. What you could do is start an organic catering business that brings eco-friendly food to whoever wants it. The focus will be on using ingredients and processes that harm the environment as little as possible. You source your ingredients from local farms and pick locally grown vegetables, etc. All the meat you sell is organic and free-range, making it far better for the environment. Nothing is packaged in plastic tubs that are bad for the environment either. Everything is contained in recyclable containers that are biodegradable and good for planet earth. You can make money by catering to many different people, mainly, you should work the events scene. I can guarantee you’ll find plenty of corporate events looking for organic caterers to enhance the reputation of said event. People will be eager to pay for your catering service because they know it makes them look a lot better if they’re going organic and getting their food from an eco-friendly business. This is great as it puts non-eco-friendly caterers out of business while filling your pockets full of cash.

Metal Recycling Business

A metal recycling business can be very profitable. This is down to a list of various factors. For one, there is a huge demand for the recycled metal. Manufacturing companies are looking for it all over the world. It’s cheaper for them, which means they’ll be keen to spend their money. Secondly, it’s an idea where you can pretty much take something that’s worth nothing, and turn it into a valuable resource. Scrap metal is pretty much free, you can find it for free, head to various scrap yards and pick it up for free, there’s never really any cost to getting your hands on these materials. What this means is that you save loads of money on procurement costs. The only things you’ll have to purchase are items that will help you like scales for a scrap yard and the machines needed to recycle the metal. With limited ongoing costs, it means the potential for profits is so much higher. Plus, there is an abundance of scrap metal everywhere. 90% of the things people throw away will contain scrap metal of some kind. It won’t be hard to get your hands on, and you can recycle loads of it for big bucks. Such a great green business idea.

Bicycle Business

In truth, this business idea revolves around two key concepts; a business where people can hire bikes, while also being a place where you repair bikes. But, it’s a lot easier to just call it a bicycle business for the time being. It’s a great idea, as bikes are a way for people to directly contribute to helping the environment. If more people can cycle, then fewer people will be in vehicles that give off carbon emissions. It’s simple, and there are many big cities around the world with cycling initiatives and locations within the city where people can rent bikes supplied by the government. However, this doesn’t happen everywhere, and even when it is available a lot of the bikes are hard to ride, or there are none left. With your business, you can provide people with bikes that they can cycle around the city for a day instead of driving their car or getting public transport. Alternatively, you could operate a service that’s the same as a car rental business, only with bikes. People can rent a bike for a few days and return it once they’re finished. Plus, with your repairs service, you can help people get back on broken bikes. Too many people don’t cycle because they don’t have a working bike. Their old one is just sitting in their garage collect dust and rusting over. With your repair shop, you can breathe new life into an old bike and help the environment.

 

Fancy going green and making lots of money at the same time? Then try out any of these three business ideas.
