In business, fortunes have been made by locating a niche demand for a product or service and filling that niche. Zappos began by selling shoes on the Web. Shoe stores are everywhere, but Zappos concentrated on broad selection of size, style and brand with fast delivery and liberal return policies. Now, this Web store has grown into other products, including clothing lines. But, the key is that a niche was identified, and Zappos attacked that...more
Concentrating on the positive side of the income statement, rents generate the income for apartment & multifamily properties. Tenants pay those rents, so the focus of marketing and advertising is to fill the property with tenants paying market rents. High vacancy rates kill cash flow. But, there's a balance that must be maintained between the cost of promotion and marketing and the results. Filling units by offering three months free rent might...more
Some people may think that just because they live in a nice part of town, that there is no need to learn self defense. Unfortunately, that couldn't be further from the truth. Self defense training is vitally important for every single member of your family. But of course, not all of us have the time or the money to invest in self defense classes. That is why self defense videos are the best possible solution for teaching your family how to protect themselves in a potentially dangerous situation.A self defense video is great for a number of reasons. First of all, you pay one price and the entire family can benefit. Also, it fits around your already tight schedule. If you don't think that your family would benefit from learning self defense, take a few minutes to think about the world you live in. We can't turn on a TV or open a newspaper without hearing stories of children being abducted, women being raped, and men being beaten and robbed and left for dead in the street. It's a frightening world we live in, so why continue to let ourselves become victims? It's time to step up and take charge of our lives, and the lives of those we care about.Since there are so many...more

I decided to check out "Modern Family" after hearing all of the critical praise about it. The show was five episodes in, so I caught up on the action online. And I must say that the acclaim is well-deserved. The show is nothing like what I'd imagined when I read about it. It is not a typical three-camera sitcom and it actually IS as gut-wrenchingly funny as people say.With any modern TV comedy, people are going to compare it with "Arrested Development", which is highly regarded as one of the greatest shows ever by many. "Modern Family" is not quite "A.D.", but I can see why some people may compare the two."Modern Family", like "Arrested Development", is a comedy about a wacky extended family that is filmed in a quasi-documentary style, similar to "The Office". The characters don't acknowledge the camera, but they do contribute "talking head" segments to supplement the action. The show is less cartoony and surreal than "Arrested Development" or "30 Rock", but the comedy can still get pretty off-the-wall.The ensemble cast is great. There are three branches of a single family. The patriarch (Ed O'Neill) has re-married, bringing a Colombian-born wife and her son into the fold. The...more
