There’s a growing theory amongst many boxing fans that Floyd Mayweather Jr’s claims of retirement are all just a negotiations ploy with Manny Pacquiao. A scheme to force Pacquiao into agreeing to whatever Floyd Mayweather Jr is demanding. It’s hard to tell if this ‘train of thought’ is accurate or just a last ditch grasp of hope by the die-hard Mayweather fans.
Dewey – One of the best quality cultures of Filipinos is the “Close Family ties” Even after they get married and started a family, they still prefer to stay connected by living with their parents or at least visit them often.
Say it aint so, Floyd.’ Is this another crazy trick from Floyd Mayweather Jr? I can tell you this; if Floyd does retire without fighting Manny Pacquiao then he will become the Sport’s “Ultimate Chicken”. I can’t think of a more cowardly move than this.

Sales Acquisition Go/ No Go Decision:

Sales Funnel Tracking   (Project List):

A Sales Funnel is a useful prognostic and forecast instrument.  It is recommended to create a Sales Funnel tracking tool. It helps to know about the previous experience with the customer, and whats the probability of getting the contract.

The concept is, to track the projects from scratch in terms of number of projects and Its individual sales values and Gross Margins. The Sales Funnel tracking starts before the respective offers  are reaching the order intake status in the accounting and reporting  Books. Therefore, potential projects will be tracked when they still are leads, prospects, Bids (proposals/quotations) and bids in negotiation phase.

Over the past 12-24 months, in specific parts of America the banks have been inundated with foreclosures, and now they have got no choice but to lower their prices so, “we the people” who buy REO’s and know short sale investing, can make a great deal when purchasing a property directly from the banks. A number of the banks are now concentrating on Short Sales, rather than foreclosure.

Of course it depends on which section of America you live in. Believe it or not, there are several parts of the country where home prices have not decreased that much, while other parts of the nation, like California, Nevada, Arizona and Florida, prices have collapsed. In the sections of the county where home prices have fallen significantly, you stand to produce a great deal when purchasing from the banks. In the parts of the country where values have fallen just a little, you may not be able to make as good of a deal, but you should still be able to buy a home for approximately 15% or more below current market value.

There are six things Bill Bartmann has used through the course of his lifetime to create massive business success and long-term wealth creation.  They’ve helped him go from places most people couldn’t imagine to the other extreme, also places most people couldn’t imagine.  The six things are simple, but they are actually profound when you implement them.

1. The first thing is you have to think big.  Most people think they’ll increase their business 10%, that’s not thinking big, that’s thinking small. If you’re a Fortune 500 company already, 10 or 15% might be enough.  But if you are a mom and pop company, 15% will take you forever to get there.  Bill Bartmann grew my company 15,000% for four years—not 15%, 15,000%.  He was one of the Ink 500 fastest growing companies in America four years in a row.  It’s because he not only had amazing employees who did great things, but because he followed principle number one—he thought big. We weren’t intimidated by the prospect that we were going to grow a company to a certain percentage.  Did we think it would be 15,000%?  No, we didn’t say that. It isn’t necessary that you are that specific on the percentile.  What is important is that you are willing to think big, that you be willing to stretch your imagination.

I have lots of interest in how to tell if people are lying, and I know a fair amount. I want to start a blog about this, and I’m trying to decide how. I’ve seen some from an academic point of view, while others are more about current events, like is the latest accused murdered lying. I also thought of expanding it to things about body language not related to lying and/or techniques for negotiation. What angle will get the best following that is sustainable?

Negotiating does not have to be a sweat session. Matter of fact, if you use these key principles, negotiating becomes a fun event. The four key things are:

your attitude going in to the negotiation
your focus on an outcome instead of the process
your ability to read the other person’s thoughts through their body language
and your ability to speak and think positively from the other person’s perspective. Read the rest of this entry

THE MEDIATOR’S ROLE

By Paul Bielaczyc

The mediator is selected by the parties to act as a neutral facilitator to assist and guide them towards a case resolution. The mediator works to direct each party to focus on the critical issues of the case so they can create options for settlement. The mediator will not decide who is right or wrong in the dispute. And the mediator will not compel the parties or force them into a settlement agreement. The mediator is expected not to give advice to the parties as to what is the best choice of action in the dispute. Nor is the mediator expected to a give case evaluation. The mediator’s role is to remain objective in viewing the facts of the case and facilitate dialogue.   

A mediator’s technique and approach varies on a case by case basis. Generally, the mediation will begin in a joint session with all parties present and the mediator to discuss the issues face-to-face. The mediator’s role is to help maintain the parties focus on these issues during the entire course of the proceeding. The mediator will then hold private caucus sessions with each side talking in greater detail about the respective positions of each party. The mediator is not expected to disclose information obtained in private sessions. What is shared from private sessions is dependent on the rules of confidentially that are arranged beforehand by all sides.
