However, did you know who the highest paid people are? Entertainers and Athletes are surprisingly; and nother interesting fact is that they spend more time training then any other occupation. So what can entrepreneurs learn from this?



If you want to be the best in the world, you have to practice. How you do that, is up to you. The point is you have to identify skills you want to improve and start working on them. Leadership, public speaking, or even technical skills that are critcal to your business have to be targeted and trained so they become second nature.

The military will train soldiers to the point that they stop thinking and just act out of habit. The idea is that they will follow their training durring the choas of battle. As an Olympic level sailor I trained so that when race day came everything was instinctual. An active brain always gets in the way of optimal performance. Practice and train the skills you desire to the point that they are second nature. It will make you a better business leader.]]>greg.skidmore@belrayam.comBlog2008-01-18T08:53:56-05:00http://www.belraycommunity.com/files/5967632061a633698ecd14db2ce180b1-7.html#unique-entry-id-7http://www.belraycommunity.com/files/5967632061a633698ecd14db2ce180b1-7.html#unique-entry-id-7Click here to read his posting.

After reading his most recent post, I had a few thoughts. Here's a secret: local businesses have a huge advantage to capture local consumers. I'm sure at some point the big guys will figure something out, but for now the search engines favor a local niche businesses when the consumer is looking for something specific. Try googling "port chester tire repair". You won't get Costco's tire repair service (which is in Port Chester, NY), you'll get a list of local tire repair places. The best part is that you've found exactly what you want in seconds and the business has found exactly what it wants a customer with a need.

Once a local consumer clicks on a site, it better help that consumer achieve whatever they are looking to do. If I click on the link of a tire repair place I don't want a list of every tire that they sell, I want an appointment asap and the site better help me do just that. An effective website isn't about showcasing a business, it's about help the consumer get something accomplished. - Greg Skidmore]]>greg.skidmore@belrayam.comBlog2008-06-18T08:53:19-04:00http://www.belraycommunity.com/files/9e5c42a93bb051303074ee6aabcdfeba-6.html#unique-entry-id-6http://www.belraycommunity.com/files/9e5c42a93bb051303074ee6aabcdfeba-6.html#unique-entry-id-6
What if you're not from an entrepreneurial family?

Find some mentors. Guests that did not have entrepreneurs in their family often found a mentor to help them along the way. I fall into the category of having a none entrepreneurial family, at least none that I knew well. Without even realizing it I built a network of people I turn to almost every day for guidance. Without the help of all these people I would have never started Belray Asset Management. - Greg Skidmore]]>greg.skidmore@belrayam.comBlog2008-02-15T08:52:53-05:00http://www.belraycommunity.com/files/f81ca578577e1648efeaf243ebbf3668-5.html#unique-entry-id-5http://www.belraycommunity.com/files/f81ca578577e1648efeaf243ebbf3668-5.html#unique-entry-id-5
