CONTRACTS

Are you in a business?

Then you must have an idea about contract...
What is a contract?

A contract is an agreement between two or more parties to do, not do, or promise something. Contracts can come in many forms — they can be oral or written, implied or express, and legally enforceable or not. The strongest contract, in terms of enforceability, has an offer, acceptance, consideration for the exchange, clearly sets out the terms of the agreement without ambiguity, and is signed by the involved parties with proper capacity to enter into the contract. (wisegeek)

When it comes into business do not underestimate the importance of putting everything in writing. For example in music contracts (especially). You cannot trust promises or any verbal agreement. Anything and everything that is discussed must be put in writing in business contracts.

You may ask, how about oral contracts? But honestly, there is no way to prove something a hundred percent unless you have written and signed business contracts or several unbiased witnesses.

Signed and Sealed!

On Posting a FREE AD

Before posting a free ad it is also necessary that one creates an email address (of course!) because once with the free ads posted there would be a huge number of confirmation mails.
Remember the other most important thing is that the free ads should be posted in related categories and not in unrelated categories.

Inconvenient Truths on Music Piracy

1. Piracy reduced revenues for record companies mean less money available to take a risk on artists (underground)

2. Internet service providers often advertise music for the benefit of signing up to their service, BUT they facilitate the illegal swapping on copyright trespassing music.

3. The anti-copyright movement does not create tax revenues, jobs, exports, and economic growth because it largely consists of people administering on a commercial world about - they know little.

4. Piracy is not caused by poverty

5. Most people know it is wrong to file-share copyright infringing material but would not stop till the law makes them or til they get caught.




Anyway, these days, even eggs could be pirated. Yes, eggs! Too much piracy in the world these days.

Bartering

In bartering, you tell the person the BENEFITS of the barter deal. Give them a persuasion of a win-win situation. Also, give their business many compliments in your proposal. You prove to them why it would be a fair trade. This kind of proposal can increase your chances off them saying "Yes, I will barter".

Working Smart #2

Knowing what to sell and how much to sell it for are the key ingredients for success. Once you know the value of an item and the demand for it, you can determine if it will be profitable to sell it. If you are selling an item for someone else, you have two sets of customers: clients and buyers. Effective online listings address the top priorities of both.

Whether you are researching an item of your own, or working for a client, keep in mind that collecting the right information about the items you sell will result in effective, more detailed listings, which will ultimately result in higher sales prices and make you and your clients happy.
