Nifty ideas you can use to build a better business


Family Biz Values

You can build credibility by promoting the strengths of your family business. Tout your family values, traditions, work ethics and stability. Publicize your company history in catalogs, brochures, press releases and on your Web site. Even new family-owned firms can establish customer trust by promoting the ties that bind. Telling clients that you own the business with your father (or son or sister) shows that you’re both vested in the success of the family business.

Rental Car Savings

Use these four tips to save a few bucks the next time you rent a car for a business trip:

  1. Book early to lock in the best rate. If you find a better deal later, you can cancel your reservation without paying any penalty.

  2. Book the smallest car available and you’ll get a lower rate. Always ask for a free upgrade when you check-in with the rental company.

  3. If you rent a car for five days or more, ask for a weekly rate.

  4. Compare rates to find the best deal. Check out BreezeNet.com, www.breezenet.com. The site covers about 50 rental companies, including small, regional rental firms.
