Flower Girl Dresses for Your Perfect Wedding

Tuesday, July 31st, 2007

By Janet Donahue Are you planning on having Flower Girls in your wedding? Or do you have children in the family who you would love to include on your most special day? Whether you are blending two families together, have darling nieces or have a friend who has a sweet daughter who you want to be a part of the festivities, there are many ways to include children in your wedding. Three Roles for Flower Girls The most popular position for children is Flower Girl. However, there are really three distinct roles for little girls in your wedding which one(s) appeal to you most? Flower Girl a child attendant wearing a child-like dress in either Tea or Formal length who usually carries a basket of petals the she may sprinkle on the aisle or path announcing the arrival of the Bride. Miniature (or Junior) Bride a child dressed like a bride. This role comes from medieval times as a decoy to lure evil spirits away from the Bride to avoid a curse on the marriage. She may wear a miniaturized version of the Brides gown (perhaps the Brides gown manufacturer or custom dressmaker can accommodate) or a wedding-style gown complete with train and flowing headpiece. She carries a bouquet. Junior Brides Maid while not really an official title, older girls certainly prefer this designation. These young ladies are usually dressed to coordinate more with the Brides Maids rather than a little girls dress. This can be tricky, but there are wonderful choices for this age groups dresses in Pre-Teen and young Teen. You can select one or all! Many brides today are opting for several children in their wedding party. The benefits are obvious since the children are so easy to please with the styles you select for them to wear. And their attire can be beautifully coordinated. Color is an important key. Selecting the Colors White or ivory dresses are the most popular (always coordinated with the color of the Brides gown). But color can be gorgeous! There are many alternatives; consider the following: A white or ivory dress and add a sash in a color close to the color of the Brides Maids dresses. It may be possible to order extra fabric from the company where you order the Brides Maids dresses to have sashes made up. Or, you can select a similar color from a childs dress company - matching perfectly is not that important so you can choose something similar or contrasting (see below). Another option is using a wide double-faced satin ribbon from a fabric store in a great color for the sashes. A white or ivory flower-petal filled dress. These are classic flower girl dresses! Select flower petals in the color of the flowers everyone will carry or the color of the Brides Maids dresses. You can even add several color petals to these dresses (they always come with an opening to add or remove petals). It is not necessary to have exactly matching petals since the fabric of the dress holding the petals is considered a buffer that diffuses color and can help many different shades go well together. Order Flower Girl dresses from the same company at the same time from the same dye lot as the Brides Maids dresses. This is the only way to match purchased dresses. Have all the dresses Flower Girls and Brides Maids made custom from the same fabric from the same dye lot to insure a match. Select a beautifully coordinating color for the Flower Girls. A dark navy blue theme wedding could look gorgeous with little ones in a lighter shade of blue while burgundy weddings may look stunning with pink — or dress the children in the color of the flowers everyone will be carrying. Any of these approaches can produce beautiful results and gorgeous photographs for your memories.

Teaming Up Marketing and Sales

Monday, July 30th, 2007

By Meryl K. Evans The Pitchers: Sales Let’s say you have a new baseball team in town and it’s almost time for the first game of the season. Your sales force is ready to sell a variety of package deals for the season. However, there’s a major stumbling block as they prepare to approach potential buyers. No one knows about the package deals or even the date of the first game. No one tipped the local sports writer or the local TV news of the upcoming grand opening game. What happened to the marketing department? There’s no marketing research, no publicity, and no idea where to begin targeting sales. Sales will flop and will make the sales department look bad, but it’s marketing’s fault since they didn’t do their job. The Batters: Marketing Let’s switch and see things from the marketing team’s view. They do a grand job of posting banners of the first game in town. Marketing has pulled together piles of reports with data on the audience, their baseball attending habits, and game spending habits. Many people arrive for the game opener, buy a ticket for the game, and it’s successful. Or is it really? The sales team is invisible. There is no one to build a relationship with the fans. No one has sold them packages for attending more than just the opener. Sales could go far beyond than one game. They could even help build relationships that go beyond the season. Marketing did a great job, but with poor sales the team may not make it and everyone loses. Where was sales when marketing promoted the event? Who gets the credit? Who gets the blame? In the war for profitable bottom line, turf issues should be put aside. Who’s on First? Marketing and sales play for the same team in different positions. Marketing leads to sales by creating programs focused on direct marketing principles that are tied to the sales team’s success. Marketing puts together a multi-step game plan to ensure each interaction with prospective fans lead to more and deeper interactions. Using shared business goals as a driver, the two work to meet those goals. Marketing and sales should constantly communicate with each other to ensure effective timing, clear understanding of the company’s message, and smoother handoffs. Sales can determine the target market by evaluating current and past sales. The results help marketing professionals sharpen their pitch so they can hook the right people. Meryl K.

5 Key Components Of A Small Business Acquisition Loan

Monday, July 30th, 2007

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Brent_Finlay]Brent Finlay Qualifying for a small business acquisition loan can be quite an ordeal to say the least. If the business being sold is very profitable, the selling price will likely reflect a significant amount of goodwill which can be very difficult to finance. If the business being sold is not making money, lenders can be difficult to find even if the underlying assets being acquired are worth substantially more than the purchase price. Business acquisition loans, or change of control financing situations, can be extremely varied from case to case. That being said, here are the major challenges you’ll typically have to overcome to secure a small business acquisition loan. >>> Financing Goodwill The definition of goodwill is the sale price minus the resale or liquidation value of business assets after any debts owing on the assets are paid off. It represents the future profit the business is expected to generate beyond the current value of the assets. Most lenders have no interest in financing goodwill. This effectively increases the amount of the down payment required to complete the sale and/or the acquisition of some financing from the vendor in the form of a vendor loan. Vendor support and Vendor loans are a very common elements in the sale of a small business. If they are not initially present in the conditions of sale, you may want to ask the vendor if they would consider providing support and financing. There are some excellent reasons why asking the question could be well worth your time. In order to receive the maximum possible sale price, which likely involves some amount of goodwill, the vendor will agree to finance part of the sale by allowing the buyer to pay a portion of the sale price over a defined period of time within a structured payment schedule. The vendor may also offer transition assistance for a period of time to make sure the transition period is seamless. The combination of support and financing by the vendor creates a positive vested interest whereby it is in the vendor’s best interest to help the buyer successfully transition all aspects of ownership and operations. Failure to do so could result in the vendor not getting all the proceeds of sale in the future in the event the business were to suffer or fail under new ownership. This is usually a very appealing aspect to potential lenders as the risk of loss due to transition is greatly reduced. This speaks directly to the next financing challenge. >>> Business Transition Risk Will the new owner be able to run the business as well as the previous owner? Will the customers still do business with the new owner? Did the previous owner possess a specific skill set that will be difficult to replicate or replace? Will the key employees remain with the company after the sale? A lender must be confident that the business can successfully continue at no worse than the current level of performance. There usually needs to be a buffer built into the financial projections for changeover lags that can occur. At the same time, many buyers will purchase a business because they believe there is substantial growth available which they think they can take advantage of. The key is convincing the lender of the growth potential and your ability to achieve superior results. >>> Asset Sale Versus Share Sale For tax purposes, many sellers want to sell the shares of their business. However, by doing so, any outstanding and potential future liability related to the going concern business will fall at the feet of the buyer unless othewise indicated in the purchase and sale agreement. Because potential business liability is a difficult thing to evaluate, there can be a higher perceived risk when considering a small business acquisition loan application related to a share purchase. >>> Market Risk Is the business in a growing, mature, or declining market segment? How does the business fit into the competitive dynamics of the market and will a change in control strengthen or weaken its competitive position? A lender needs to be confident that the business can be successful for at least the period the business acquisition loan will be outstanding. This is important for two reasons. First, a sustained cash flow will obviously allow a smoother process of repayment. Second, a strong going concern business has a higher probability of resale. If an unforeseen event causes the owner to no longer be able to carry on the business, the lender will have confidence that the business can still generate enough profit from resale to retire the outstanding debt. Localized markets are much easier for a lender or investor to assess than a business selling to a broader geographic reach. Area based lenders may also have some working knowledge of the particular business and how prominent it is in the local market. >>> Personal Net Worth Most business acquisition loans require the buyer to be able to invest at least a third of the total purchase price in cash with a remaining tangible net worth at least equal to the remaining value of the loan. Statistics show that over leveraged companies are more prone to suffer financial duress and default on their business acquisition loan commitments. The larger the amount of the business acquisition loan required, the more likely the probability of default. Brent Finlay makes it easy to understanding business financing.

How Does God Rate In The Polls?

Thursday, July 26th, 2007

By Arthur Levine God better watch out, the devil may be gaining on Him. According to a Fox News poll, ninety-two percent of the U.S. population believes in God. This provides an interesting comparison because the PEW Research Institute has statistics that show that roughly forty-nine percent of the population attends houses of worship on a regular basis and forty-nine percent attend rarely if at all. Evidently the concept of God is more popular than organized religion or going to Church. The Gallop Poll and the Harris Poll and an ABC News poll also confirm this, but Gods popularity percentage verses the popularity of going to church varies with each poll. Sometimes I suppose it depends on how the spirit moves you, or what and who you think that God is that determines where, why and how you search for God. Unfortunately according to this poll seventy-one percent of the population also believes that the devil exists, but this doesnt mean he is popular or that anyone is searching for him thank God. Of course you can skew the poll results in many different ways depending on how you ask a question and interpret the results. Perhaps this is why the same Fox News poll shows that eighty-five percent of the population believes in Heaven. It is hard to determine if this means that seven percent of those that believe in God dont think they stand a chance in hell of getting into Heaven (92%-85%=7%) or if they just dont buy into the whole concept of there being a Heaven, but do believe in God just in case. This same poll shows that eighty-two percent of people believe in miracles. Does this mean that they are part of the vast majority of people who believe it will take a miracle for them to get into Heaven? To make matters worse, while the percentage of people believing in God has stayed relatively constant over the last few years or in some polls decreased, the percentage believing in the existence of the devil has increased from sixty-three percent to seventy-one percent over roughly the same period of time. I cant figure out what the hell this part of the poll means. I suppose it is open to interpretation. I dont think it is necessary in discussing polls about the popularity of God to mention that these polls are probably correct plus or minus 3% because I doubt that God is running against anybody. Which makes me stop and wonder why if there is no chance of anyone else but God winning, why would anyone take a poll to begin with? Do you think that the devil has anything to do with this insane desire on the part of certain news organizations to take polls about who does and doesnt believe in God? Why cant we leave the poll taking to the atheists? They know who they are, and since they represent such a small and unconvinced percentage (8%) of the population, they should be responsible for paying for these polls in my opinion, or do they have the privilege of invoking minority rights. And whom would they invoke them to anyway? They certainly cant turn to God, can they? There is an obvious Gender Gap in relationship to these God like polls with women more likely than men to believe in most categories including Miracles by twelve percent and Heaven by eight percent. The one notable exception is that thirty-nine percent of men believe in UFOs verses thirty percent of women. I dont know what UFOs have to do with God, but my wife tells me that if I dont get off the subject she is going to send me into outer space. I wonder if she is mad or just wants to give me an opportunity to meet my maker? Please dont rush me honey, I think I am on a fast track as it is. Of perhaps more value to this discussion on polls about God is the fact that Fox News says republicans are more likely by eight percent to say they believe in God and by fifteen percent in Heaven and by seventeen percent in the devil, while democrats believe in reincarnation by fourteen percent more than republicans. What do they mean when they use the term say? Does that mean the republicans dont really mean it? Why the disparity when if comes to believing in the devil? Are the republicans out to get his vote too? How should we interpret the figures on reincarnation? Does this mean the democrats are hoping they can come back as republicans or just hoping for a comeback? This is all too confusing. Before we leave the subject of polls about God to their eternal resting place, I think it worth noting that this same poll indicates that young people are much more likely to believe in hell by a ratio of eighty-six percent to sixty-eight percent for those over seventy years old. The same applies to the devil by a ratio of seventy-nine percent to sixty-nine percent. Does this mean that for older Americans their hell raising days are over, or does it mean that the younger generations are hell bent on raising the devil with our established religious traditions? I dont know. I dont even know if the younger or older Americans understand their respective positions on hell and the devil any better than those of us caught in the hellish position of being middle aged, which by the way the poll doesnt cover as an individual age group at all. I leave these weighty interpretations in Gods hands, who, without the benefit of polling statistics, I am sure, will find the grace to interpolate and understand. The one part of the poll I am really happy about I saved for last. This one makes the whole polling thing worthwhile for me. It shows that fully sixty-nine percent of the population believes that religion plays too small a part in our lives. Thats what Ive been saying all along. Before I leave this exercise in my God given right to have opinions on polls about God, I should also make note of the fact that Fox News says that their poll was conducted over two days by telephone to over 900 people. What about the rest of the almost three hundred million people in the United States? Dont we get a say? Has anyone tried polling God for his input lately? I wonder what He would have to say about His poll numbers? I bet He will have the final say. Please feel free to use this article as long as credit is given to the resource box.

How to Effectively Market a Small Business under Budget

Tuesday, July 17th, 2007

By Natalie Aranda The process of starting a business, small or large, is the same - business ideas, business registration, financing, product or service development, marketing, sales and customer support. A right business idea is critical to the success of a new venture. The business you are in should be the things you’re passionate about and have enough knowledge, experience and talent to compete. While a business with venture capital or other financial backup has sufficient capital to kick off a thoroughly planned marketing campaign, marketing of a small or home based business is often under budget. Business Cards Distributing business cards is one of the most popular and inexpensive ways to market or advertise your service. Though you can do business card printing yourself using many different business card templates, it’s wise to spend a little money to order professional designed business cards. For as little as $20, you can order 500 business cards. Color business cards will cost a little bit more. Internet Marketing A professional Web site is next thing you must have to promote your products or service so that the prospects can obtain information about your business 365 days a year and 24 hours a day. Affordable Web hosting costs as little as $25-$50 a year. For another $80, you can have one or two simple Web pages. If your customers are likely looking for the service on the Internet, $50 on PPC will actually bring you a few customers and generate handsome revenues. Traditional Ads Needless to say, your business should be listed on Yellow book or local phone directory. Ads on local newspaper and flyers will bring you business from your local community. Starting a home-based or small business isn’t all that harder. It’s lot of trial and error. It takes a lot of harder work to truly succeed.

Finding the Right Type of Catering for Your Event

Monday, July 16th, 2007

By Valerie Vollmer Full Service Catering: This can be heavy hors d oeuvres, sit-down meals, beautiful buffets and stations, beverages, cappuccino bars and other event planning. This can involve on-site cooking of some of the food using your kitchen space and oven, to setting up a temporary kitchen on site to prepare your meals. You have a full wait staff to set up the entire event and to tend to you and your guests needs during this special occasion. The staff will take down and clean up, and they should even take away the trash. They will work closely with your hired professional vendors to ensure that your event is perfect. Private Catering Events at a Restaurant: Many restaurants can offer you private use of their facility often called a buy-out. They will close their restaurant during their regular hour for a price. Remember that they will turn away all business that would come their way, and there for patrons will go elsewhere for the evening. The price is usually expensive, but if it is your favorite place, what a better way to celebrate. You can bring in your own entertainment, floral and dcor or let them take care of it all. You can do as much or as little as you would like. Show up, have a wonderful time, and go home with no extra work on your part. Pick-up and Drop Offs: Food that is mostly self-service. Many places will offer their popular items, hors d oeuvres or entrees, that can be picked up by you or delivered to the party site. You may consider hiring an outside service staff to assist you, or ask family and friends to help serve and clean up. The food can come ready to serve on platters or may require chafing dishes to keep them hot. Some caterers offer appetizers that are best when cooked right before serving and they can even supply you with the simple cooking instructions. This is a very cost effective way to cater, and the size of your event can dictate if this is really a practical way to go. Meet with A Caterer! Plan at least six months to one year before your wedding to begin planning. Look for caterers who are members of catering associations. By being a member they surround themselves with professionals and industry leaders. You need a professional who is constantly educating themselves to provide you the client, with the most up to date menu, trends and ideas to create the best event possible. View their portfolio and see the style of their work. Many will create a proposal for you, based on your menu selection and style of catering service. There should be no charge for this service, and you should be able to change, add or delete items up until at least one month before your event. Of course this can affect the price. If this is an off-premise event, meet with the caterer at the site and discuss your vision for the location. Call a rental company to come out as well, to make sure your proposal is as accurate as possible. If you are comparing catering companies, please make sure you are comparing the style of service and menu selection. One caterer is not offering you drop off food in foil pans and the other is offering you a full service catering event with a 5-course meal and full staffing! Once you receive the proposal make sure everything you asked for is included and you understand what is presented. Upon agreeing to the terms and conditions of the catering service a deposit is due to confirm their services with you for that day. The number of events a caterer does in one day varies with each event, guest count, style of service and the menu. You want to find someone who is not looking to be the busiest only the best!
