In Order to make Your Event a Huge Success, Take the Time to Make a Good First Impression
In
business, as in the rest of the world, decisions are often made in the
first few minutes of contact. Making a good first impression at an event
is vital to the success of your business.
- By Neen James
Post signs at the venue to appear when your guests get out of the
elevator, walk off the street or enter a large conference facility.
This signage will assist your guests to feel comfortable and know they are in the right place.
Provide pre-printed name tags if appropriate.
Organize name tags with your logo or event name on the name tag as
well. TIP: Pay special attention to the correct spelling of people's
names as it is very important to get this right. Always keep a supply of
blank name tags available for unexpected guests.
Sort the name tags on your registration desk in alphabetical order (by last or first name)
Your guests will help you look for their name tag as well.

Eleven Easy Ways to Destroy Your Company by Jay Goltz
Businesses make hundreds or thousands of decisions every year, many
of which seem inconsequential. But the smallest details can have
business-changing or even business-ending consequences. Here are 11 of
my favorites to watch out for:
1. The lowly extension cord.People get cold feet. They get a space heater. They plug it into a
two-pronged extension cord. They forget to unplug it when they leave
work. That night, while you are sleeping, your entire business burns
down. Your brilliant marketing plan, your three-year projections, all
of your records, your new product samples.. You get the idea. This is
not something that most business owners think about, but insurance
companies know that extension cords and space heaters are major fire
hazards. It is good practice not to allow any extension cords in your business that aren't three-pronged.

Visa's latest security measures hailed as industry's best
Credit
card companies are now placing a greater emphasis on privacy, and protecting
the account information of both their customers and other businesses. And with
this in mind, Visa has rolled out a new kind of protection that is already
winning acclaim from leading identity theft protection companies.
According to 3Delta Systems, a company that is among the best in online credit
card payment solutions, Visa's innovative new identity theft protection system
is a "global industry best." The process, which involves a process
called "tokenization," basically takes consumers' real credit card
data and makes it unusable by hackers while keeping it readable for itself.
The company said that Visa's system converts all the information from a
customer's purchase - their 16-digit credit card number as well as other
information related to the transaction - into a string of characters that
hackers cannot decrypt, which renders it useless to them. The tokenization
process not only protects consumers and merchants, but also payment processors,
and in doing so reduces the amount of risk and the costs associated with
complying with data-security laws. |
