How Do I Use Bulk Popcorn In My Online Business?

Lizzie asks…
Homemade cheese popcorn….??
We have one of those popcorn stands and I would really like to make real cheese popcorn… but I can’t seem to find it online how and where to get the ingredients. I had purchased this tiny bottle of cheese, but it didn’t taste very good and it would probably take the whole bottle to make one batch… I prefer to buy in bulk if that’s the case. But, first things first… any real recommendations for cheese popcorn “experts” self-proclaimed would be okay, too.
Thanks.

Susan asks…
What are quick, healthy, grab & go type snacks that are pre-teen friendly?
This is the first summer that my pre-teen is old enough to and will spend the days at home during the week. What are some healthy, not too quickly perishable snack type items I can stock up on that my kid will like and can handle preparing (using a can opener, the microwave, toaster) ?
On my stock up list, I’ve already got: Trail Mix, Granola Bars, Cereal Bars, Canned Mixed Nuts, Fruit Cups, Jello Cups, Sandwich Items, Microwave Popcorn.
Please give me other good ideas for easy but healthy food snacks. I will make sure to have some fun foods – chips, cookies, etc. But want the bulk of it to be nutritious. Also, I will provide fresh fruit and veggies w/dip – but that I can’t stock up on, but will purchase weekly.

Victor answers:
Canned soup is great
Ramen (add in veggies and leftover meat for variety)
Rinsed and prepared veggies to dip in Ranch (carrots, colorful sweet peppers, celery, etc. Trust me, most kids do like veggies, but prep work really cuts down on how often they make it for themselves.)
Tuna Melts in a toaster oven
Those Lipton or Knorr packets of pasta or rice with sauce
Mac & Cheese
Cheese burritos (tortilla, shredded cheese, taco sauce microwaved)
Bagel Bites or frozen pizzas
The best thing to have on hand is a sandwich maker. The kid can make grilled cheese and other hot sandwiches without using the stove or getting a pan dirty, and it’s also great for quesodillas, which are made better if you have some veggies and leftover chicken or steak in the fridge.
If you have time in the mornings, try making breakfast, and wake the kid up for it (if you don’t leave at 6 o’clock in the morning or anything). It will make them less likely to snack throughout the day, and it’s always nice to have a face to face convo with someone if you are spending most of the day alone. Plus, it will give you a nice breakfast. (And my mom usually used the time to give me a small list of chores for the day, like watering her plants. >.<)
Make sure your kid knows their way around the kitchen also. Knife safety is a huge one, even if they aren't likely to use them. Also make sure they know that if they are frying anything, like a quesodilla, water won't put out a fire. Get a small fire extinguisher if you don't have one, and go over how to use it.

Carol asks…
Trying to bulk up a little. Need a new lunch for the day and a workout plan that will help me bulk up?
Ok so since I’m trying to get healthier and bulk my body up i need a new lunch for the day usually i eat two peanut butter and jelly sandwiches a day one in the morning and one in the afternoon. I don’t have breakfast at all during the week and i usually have about two snacks maybe fruit and popcorn or chips. and i drink green tea.
if anyone would like to build me a personal lunch menu that would help and make a workout routine that would help or direct me somewhere i could find one?????

Victor answers:
You need to eat more in general as a guide here is what I eatt
Breakfast – 1 scoop oats, 1 scoop oatbran, 1 scoop wheatbran,
2 whole eggs, 2 tbs of peanut butter, 3 servings of fruit
1 mug of skimmed milk with 1/2 scoop of whey
10.00am – Wholewheat sandwhich with sald vegetables with a
mixture of meats and almonds and fruit on the side
1.00pm – Large salad with a tin of tuna and 1 scoop of couscous and an olive oil dressing and 1 serving of fruit
4.00pm – left over dinner from night before (usually pasta, lean meat and veg and one serving of fruit
6.00pm – post work out shake (30g protein 60g carbs)
7.00pm – A lean meat with vegetables and good low GI carbs
10.00pm – Cottage cheese, peanut putter skimmed milk and whey protein
I train weights 4 days a week and do two days cardio and Im putting on some solid mass with this diet. Now compare what you eat to what I eat.
Key thing to remember protein, carbs, fat and antioxidants (veg/fruit) at all meals and eat regularly (every 3 hours)

Linda asks…
what are good food to buy when low on money?
right now, i have to spend only 6 dollars for one week of food until my next pay cheque
i also have salt, pepper, some left over taco sauce…. and alot of popcorn kernels. uh
thats it.
i live near ton of bulk stores and chinese groccery market.
any ideas????
i can also get some free food from work – subway

Victor answers:
Here you go. I’ve been there!
Go to Dollar Store or ‘cash only’ store- Romen noodles are about 10 for $1.00 in some places! Get a loaf of bread for $1 or hamburger rolls.
Pick up dry pasta, like angel hair & some margarine-store brand. (U should be able to find this 3 sticks for $1 )
Get dry packets of pasta sauce or gravy mix; these are cheap & add flavor, variety *require only water to make.
Get huge bag of dry rice – you’ll use only margarine, water & S&P for this)
Make a whole bunch of pasta. I lived on it when I had my ulcer.
Try to find a “real” grocery store, usually in an out of way area. Poor folk know where they are -ask around, don’t be shy. Everyone has to eat.
Marked down meats (if there aren’t any out, ask clerk to find some)
There should a mark down rack of veggies like potatoes.
If you get ground beef make into little patties. You can season with the s&p & taco sauce. Prefry immediately so it doesn’t go bad. Save a little to brown in small pieces & add this to your pasta sauce mix. Add to cooked pasta.
Get a 1/2 carton of eggs & a tin of generic dry oatmeal for breakfast if you have enough.
Pick up some packets of sugar if you get to a fast food place. It’s OK
Potatoes (white or sweet) are cheap; esp. At roadside stands. They may give u extra free extra stuff if u explain your situation (they usually have to throw out extra food!)
Drink water. If you can’t stand it, sprinkle some sugar in it. Save part of your drink from lunch if you can (get the free refill)
Get a very filling sub, like cheesesteak for example; or one of the foot longs! Save the cookie for a snack.
You can even fry the pasta or cooked potatoes in the margarine at night. Delicious!
That will get you thru the week, dear.
~All the best~

How Do I Use Free People Search In My Online Business?

Betty asks…
how can I find a free detailed people search?
I am looking for a friend from high school and I need to know if there are free people searches.

Victor answers:
I know there are several sites where you can look up high school classmates. One that comes to mind is classmates.com and I know there are others, but I can’t think of them right now.
I don’t know if they are “free” or not, but you can try them and find out.
You could also “google” the person–that is go to Google, type in their name and see what comes up. You could do this on Yahoo, or ask.com as well.

George asks…

Is there a site where you can search for missing people thats REALLY free. All the ones I went to said there free but you end up having to pay some type of fee. Please let me know if you have any idea of what sites I can go to.

Victor answers:
The only one i can think of is white pages.com they will give there age and usually and old address. Also if you know where they are from you can call city hall and get free public records. Everything costs money online so if you call around you might have better luck. I know death, marraige, divorce and sometimes voter registration records are public also criminal records are public at the courthouse. Good luck with your search.

Free project management software recommendations?
Project management software market is overloaded with tons of products. Some of them are free, some of them charge money for extra features. We are a small design company (about 30 employees) and we are looking for the most suitable option for our businesses’ size. So far none of the options seem to suit our needs – the tools are either too expensive of too complicated. Any recommendations based on personal experience in the usage of project management software in small companies would be greatly appreciated.

Victor answers:
Ours is also a small company and we are using Replicon Time tracking software since 4 years, without any difficulty.
There is no extra charge for any additional feature. It’s very easy to set up projects/clients and see who is working on what and their billable/non-billable hours, with Multi-level Approval Paths.
You can take a free trial and give it a try.

Suggestions for Spa client management software?
I run my own mobile spa business, and I am just looking for a simple client management software. I don’t want anything that I have to pay monthly, but a one time fee. I don’t need marketing or inventory. I just need to track my clients visits, and just hold their information. Its just me in the business so I don’t need extensive or expensive.

Victor answers:
Seeing your need. Microsoft Excel or its free equivalent (open office www.openoffice.org)
Is more than enough to make such a list.
You can easily make column with first and last name, phone number, adress etc.
You can also add any kind of data like last visit, next appointment and price (you can even if you said you dont need to:D)
And if you ever need more function, you can always add them later.
And if you ever get bigger and want to pay for more complex inventory, bill or inventory program : those are easily exportable to any kind of data base. So you know that for your current needs you get something easilly editable and upgradable that cost almost nothing (or nothing at all with open office).

what foods can help me bulk up for football?
im 13 and need to bulk up for high school football.What sort of foods will help me bulk up,im 113.0 pounds right now and i want to get to 130 or something good.Also what type of workouts should i do for bulking up.
Any extra information that would be helpful please tell me
thanks

Victor answers:
A full workout plan would be really good but if you just want basics just do push ups, pull ups and sit up and crunches… If you have a gym dumbell flys and benching would be good as well try to make a workout plan and never workout the same muscles 2 days in a row, unless you want to lose them…
Good foods would be anything high in calories and protein but still healthy, try lots of tuna for protein and eggs for more protein and some carbs… Ham and turkey are good but watch your intake…. If your going to eat more you have to exercise more too you dont want to over do your diet and end up fat instead of bulking up when looking for good food stay away for the deep frier….. It is loaded in calories but loaded with bad fats and plenty of thing youll regret intaking… You wanna bulk up not get fat.. So eat healthy and eat LOTS!

Are there any food stores that sell organic bulk bin foods in Virginia or Maryland?

Those kinds of flour will never be inexpensive as they are specialty and you will charged a boatload for that alone.
If you know the name of the brand of flour you want, find that companies web site and do a product search.

John asks…
What are good ‘bulk up’ foods?
I seem to be losing weight. My pants don’t fit me properly anymore. Tomorrow, I’m going to make new holes in my belt, so it’s tight enough.
I attribute this mainly to the amount of walking I do. Also, because I don’t eat breakfast. Anyone have any dietary tips for someone who does a lot of exercise (I want a car..so badly
).
I don’t want to be chewing on lard though…I’d like to gain more bulk too, because I seem to have slowed down compared to a friend who I work out with. So, good bulk up foods, anyone?

Victor answers:
Stick with your basics. Only thing that will make muscles grow is Protein and protein and even more protein. Basics are tuna, eggs, chicken and beef. Protein are literally the building blocks of muscles and the only thing that will make muscles grow!!! It might get expensive so if your going to buy beef go with silverside cut steak (really cheap) and tuna and eggs shouldn’t be that bad on the wallet. Aside from that get alot of carbohydrates (potatoes, bread, flour etc) so your body uses that up before it gets to your muscles or fat. Also it wouldn’t be a bad idea to invest in a whey protein powder as a supplement (dont depend solely on this because your muscles also need protein from real food), but it’s a good add on. Good luck and stick with it.

How Do I Use Network Marketing Software In My Online Business?

What additional financial and nonfinancial information would investors and creditors need to make investing?

The following is an excerpt from Lucent

of Operations:
Executive Summary
We design and deliver the systems, software

networks. Backed by Bell Labs
research and development, we use our
strengths in mobility, optical, access, data and
voice networking technologies, as well as
services, to create new revenue-generating
opportunities for our customers, while
enabling them to quickly deploy and better
manage their networks. Our customer base
includes communications service providers,
governments and enterprises worldwide.
We have three segments organized
around the products and services we sell.
The reportable segments are Integrated Network
Solutions (“INS”), Mobility Solutions
(“Mobility”) and Lucent Worldwide Services
(“Services”). INS provides a broad range
of software and wireline equipment related
to voice networking (primarily consisting
of switching products, which we sometimes
refer to as convergence solutions, and voice
messaging products), data and network
management (primarily consisting of access
and related data networking equipment
and operating support software) and optical
networking. Mobility provides software and
wireless equipment to support radio access
and core networks. Services provides deployment,
maintenance, professional and managed
services in support of both our product
offerings as well as multi-vendor networks.
Beginning in fiscal 2001, the global
telecommunications market deteriorated,
resulting from a decrease in the competitive
local exchange carrier market and a significant
reduction in capital spending by established
service providers.This trend intensified
during fiscal 2002 and continued into fiscal
2003. Reasons for the market deterioration
included general economic slowdown, network
overcapacity, customer bankruptcies,
network build-out delays and limited availability
of capital.
We believe that the market for telecommunications
equipment has stabilized
and is starting to grow in certain areas. The
growing demands of enterprises and consumers
for additional services tailored to
their needs is creating the need for a new
convergence of networks, technologies and
applications.

Mandy asks…
am trying to develop a wireless infrastructure for my business site. which wireless technology would u use?
UWB, ZigBee, mesh networking, software-defined radio, or smart antennas are some of the most popular wireless technologies on the market today. If you were developing a wireless infrastructure for a business site, which one would you choose? why?

Victor answers:
Personally.. I think 802.11n should be fine.
UWB is still pretty new, so not many vendors have a ton of experience with it. UWB is usually 10-30 feet only.
Mesh is usually for blanketing a large area – like all of downtown, in a network and have people roam from AP to AP.
Not familiar with Zigbee
I’m impressed by Cisco’s managed APs for simplicity and security.
They have 802.11n protocol APs.
I got a technology demo from them and it was impressive.
1) You purchase a controller unit for the size of the network you need, let’s say 6 Access Points.
2) Each AP plugs into the controller and gets it configuration information from the controller. You only administer the controller..the APs are “dumb” — if someone steals an AP, they don’t have ANY of your security info, because the AP looses its configure when disconnected from the controller.
3) Each AP can have a Private internal network and a public network which are separate. So you can give guests access without having them connected to your internal network.
4) APs communicate with each other and increase or decrease their Output to get “optimal coverage”
5) People can roam from AP to AP without loosing connection
6) APs can actually detect and alert you if someone plugs in an “unapproved” wireless AP in your environment (like someone hooking up a Linksys router in a conference room)
7) APs can perform “denial of service” attacks against unapproved wireless routers to keep people from connecting to them. They do this WHILE they are still servicing other clients.
the APs can use “power over ethernet” so you don’t have to run power cables to each one. They can also be mounted to the ceiling.. So they are unintrusive.
9) You can also use RFID tags to track computers and laptops and PEOPLE if they have RFIDs in their ID badges.
I’m not a Cisco sales rep.. I’m just really impressed with their products.
Of course.. I don’t know your budget.. To do things the “Cisco way” costs money, $$

Mark asks…
Is there any chance for new social networking sites to succeed?
Social networking has come a long way. Today’s big social networking sites had the “first mover” advantage. They have had millions of dollars pumped into them by various parties early on in their lives. Can new social networking sites succeed in the face of all these? Can their be any need they have not fulfilled, needs or features which new sites can add? Or will we soon see effects such as Microsoft had on the system software market, or Google had on the search market?

Victor answers:
I would guess that they can. The trick I think is to start with some wordplay and to use a word that you can re use in many ways. Some tried and failed while sites like Twitter succeeded. I think they sold us on the ‘cute’ idea and they also networked with other social sites immediately.
Most internet business people like myself join any and all social sites because as you know on the net, people you know is like money in the bank. After I joined stress free salary I realized how quickly one can become rich on the net with just a vew people. That’s why I joined social sites today.
You can also use them to network to any site you have and in this way you can have your site up amongst the most in a short amount of time.

Susan asks…
Conservatives: How do you reconcile your opinions on Net Neutrality and Open Source Software?
This is a follow-up to another question I asked earlier today:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AozHXNcqC.gL8k1IlxYVOtTsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20100322064535AAMMUtq
I was pleasantly surprised (but slightly confused) to find that many conservatives like the competitive edge that the Open Source community brings to the software market. You guys aren’t all that bad after all.
But, every answer begets another question:
If Conservatism likes Open Source, why then is it typically opposed to Network Neutrality?
Allowing an ISP to block their competitor’s web content would devastate the highly competitive environment of the Internet. Moreover, its hardly a stretch to imagine certain companies (Microsoft) bribing ISPs to block open source havens such a SourceForge and the various Linux distro homepages (Debian, Ubuntu, Slackware, et al).
Please don’t mistake this as a troll or trap. Net Neutrality, the Open Source community and a competitive, innovative Internet are very dear issues to me.
I just want to understand how Conservatives expect there to be innovation and competition on the Internet if ISPs are made unofficial gate-keepers to the Internet and are allowed to block whatever content then don’t want you to see.
To everyone: Network Neutrality in no way allows the Government to “regulate the Internet.” It merely gives the Government power to prevent an ISP from blocking or throttling access to legal, non-disruptive content.
Demos: Its not that far-fetched. There are 3 major broadband providers in the US: Comcast, AT&T and Verizon (with Google possibly soon throwing its hat into the ring). All three of the big players have stated in no uncertain terms that they would tier service according to content and block certain competitor’s content, if network neutrality were struck down.
Moreover, the telecom industry has such high infrastructure overhead that it is fairly difficult for new firms to enter the market. While the demand for neutral access may be high, the supply would not necessarily follow.
Unless, of course, Google does build its fiber networks (with an explicit company commitment to maintaining a neutral network, no less). In which case, we can kiss the big 3 goodbye.
Jans, if I have generalized Conservatives, it is only because Conservative supporters of net neutrality have been conspicuously quiet in the public realm while their much louder Conservative Net Neutrality opponents seemingly dominate the Conservative side of the debate.

Victor answers:
Me I’ve long been an open source proponent, contributer and user. Switched most of my home pcs to Linux back in the late 90s and except for music recording been all Linux since 2000. If the US Gov dumped propriatory software it’d save trillions and also be far more efficient and secure. One of my biggest solutions to allow us to drastically cut taxes is exactly that, to ban propriatory software except where there is a compelling need for it because of a very specialized app that has no open source equiv.
I’m iffy about net nuetrality. I like the basic concept but the devil is in the details. The way it’s planned to be implemented just makes my skin crawl. It shouts Gov intrusion and regulation. It also can be easily twisted to force “equal” bandwidth even when bandwidth isn’t an issue. As such ISPs could be forced to throttle bandwidth on popular sites because some pet Leftist website isn’t getting the hits they think is appropriate.
I do strongly oppose the tiered structure and growing monopoly among ISPs. Sprint is the worst offender. It has repeatedly over the years throttled bandwidth from small ISPs to give bandwidth to bigger ISPs who paid to have higher access. This tends to really harm rural users who don’t have the collective bargaining power of being with one of the biggie ISPs and dial up users who are often using local tiny ISPs. Sprint has also at times censored content which outraged me and for years I boycotted Sprint products over it. The potential is still there for ISPs and parts of the backbone to censor at will, filter and to actually play politics by throttling not just specific ISPs but specific destinations and or regions. So I’d like to see net nuetrality completely rewritten to stay in the spirit of the idea rather than the mess that was proposed as law recently.

The following is a excerpt from Lucent Technologies Management?
Executive Summary We design and deliver the systems, software and services that drive next-generation communications networks. Backed by Bell Labs research and development, we use our strengths in mobility, optical, access, data and voice networking technologies, as well as services, to create new revenue-generating opportunities for our customers, while enabling them to quickly deploy and better manage their networks. Our customer base includes communications service providers, governments and enterprises worldwide. We have three segments organized around the products and services we sell. The reportable segments are Integrated Network Solutions (“INS”), Mobility Solutions (“Mobility”) and Lucent Worldwide Services (“Services”). INS provides a broad range of software and wireline equipment related to voice networking (primarily consisting of switching products, which we sometimes refer to as convergence solutions, and voice messaging products), data and network management (primarily consisting of access and related data networking equipment and operating support software) and optical networking. Mobility provides software and wireless equipment to support radio access and core networks. Services provides deployment, maintenance, professional and managed services in support of both our product offerings as well as multi-vendor networks. Beginning in fiscal 2001, the global telecommunications market deteriorated, resulting from a decrease in the competitive local exchange carrier market and a significant reduction in capital spending by established service providers.This trend intensified during fiscal 2002 and continued into fiscal 2003. Reasons for the market deterioration included general economic slowdown, network overcapacity, customer bankruptcies, network build-out delays and limited availability of capital. We believe that the market for telecommunications equipment has stabilized and is starting to grow in certain areas. The growing demands of enterprises and consumers for additional services tailored to their needs is creating the need for a new convergence of networks, technologies and applications. Required 1. Using the Consolidated Balance Sheets for Lucent Technologies for September 30, 2004 and 2003, prepare a common-size balance sheet. 2. Evaluate the asset, debt, and equity structure of Lucent Technologies, as well as trends and changes found on the common-size balance sheet. 3. What concerns would investors and creditors have based on only this information? 4. What additional financial and nonfinancial information would investors and creditors need to make investing and lending decisions for Lucent Technologies?

How Do I Use Bulk Flowers In My Online Business?

Steven asks…
Where can I buy bulk faux flowers?
I am working on my wedding centerpieces and am researching all my options and costs. Does anyone know of a website to buy bulk flowers (roses & yellow asiatic lillies) real or fake. If they are fake I want them to look semi-real. No hard plastic flowers or cheesy looking ones. I have found a lot of bulk flower distributors online but you never know which ones are good and which ones are rip-offs. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I checked out the website sve-on-crafts.com and it is actually cheaper for me to buy real roses compared to their price. But thank you all who recommended them.

Victor answers:
I would go to a craft store like Michael’s or Hobby Lobby. They both have really nice silk. Maybe they could order a case of what you are wanting.

Maria asks…
How or where can you buy fresh cut flowers cheap in bulk for an out side wedding?

Victor answers:
I would say you could check Costco, but your best bet is probably a farmer’s market. Some grocery stores have really nice flowers too and are a lot less expensive than floral shops.

James asks…
my aunt wants me to do her wedding decor but i need help finding flowers in bulk in town and not online help!!?
but i dont want to call a flower shop because i want to do the bouquets myself

Victor answers:
Try your local chain grocery store(with a florist dept.) they can order bulk flowers for you at prices much lower than florists charge

David asks…

Victor answers:
Look for floral warehouses in your city, they should be listed in the phone book..

How Do I Use Free Music Downloads In My Online Business?

David asks…
are there any good websites that truly offer free music downloads that dont require downloading software?
I want music and i dont want to have to pay for it. Are there any ways that I can get free music downloads?

Victor answers:

Http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwO4IawgteU

Susan asks…
Where can I find FREE music downloads off of the Internet?
I am looking for a website that I can get free music downloads off of. I need Mariah Carey-We Belong Together. No, not a music player like bearshare, limewire, or itunes but actual songs (music) that I can download off of the actual internet.
Thanks!
It’s for a little video I am putting together. The website and song will get full credit in the video.
I found one. Thanks anyway

Victor answers:
Do the right thing. Go to the store and buy their albums, or buy seperate songs on itunes or something.

Lizzie asks…
What is a good website for free music downloads?
Since limewire is gone, i started using frostwire. but frostwire is not working to well because of bad music quality, wrong downloads, sources, and all that. so i was wondering if there were any other sites more like limewire, with good quality songs and alot of choices. i have tried Vuze, utorrent and many other things and i dont want any of those! it has to be free, and it has to have alot of songs. limewire was perfect? any safe ideas for websites? free?

Victor answers:
If you want to safely download some free music, http://searchformusic.eu.pn/ searches many safe, no-registration sites.
In case you are tempted, avoid p2p software like Ares, Limewire, Frostwire, Bearshare, torrents etc. -* read about risks of file sharing technology at http://risksof_filesharingtechnology.blogspot.com
Also, don’t use (YouTube) video converters unless you like low quality music (& adware from the converter).
Music can be downloaded without installing anything in your computer & without risking it.

James asks…
where can I find free music downloads for my MP3 ?
I want free music downloads for my MP3 – but all the free sites I look at want me to sign up for a mess of ads and stuff. Lime wire I was told has a lot of viruses on it.
What site can I use?

Victor answers:
Don’t use Limewire, it’s illegal, full of viruses, and more and more people are getting caught and fined for using it.
There are lots of sites that offer music from 9 cents a song, so it’s not worth taking the illegal risk if you can get music cheaply.
Try http://www.mp3obsession.com/reviews/
It reviews loads of these cheap sites to help you pick a good one, they are all legal, and not smothered in viruses and spyware.

Nancy asks…
How can i get free music downloads fast n easy with no personal info?
how can i get free music downloads fast n easy with no personal info (not using a program like limewire or anything that requires you download a program, just go to the site n click)
and i dont want to create an account either.. just go to the site, search my song, and download

Victor answers:
Limewire just gooogle it, i use it and its amazing. There are rumors tht it has viruses but if u download the right music files its safe. By right music files i mean no grammar mistakes, makes sense, etc… Good luk!

How Do I Use Direct Marketing Software In My Online Business?

Sandra asks…
Marketing Assistant for realtors freelance option?
I currently work for a broker with 15 realtors. I assist them with computer organization, troubelshooting, custom direct mail, ad layouts, mailing lists etc. My broker allows me to help them to a point but then they are on their own. I’m limited which has made me bored and can’t get upgraded software for my work computer to even learn more. Lately some realtors have been asking if I can freelance for them and said I could make alot doing this on my own. Does anyone else out there do this kind of work rather than in-office? I’m curious how successful it can be.

Victor answers:
Almost anything can be successful if you have a market for it and the fact that potential customers are actually ASKING you to provide this service – is an indicator that there is a market. Find out how many of these people would be willing to actually hire you, perhaps start out by doing work for them part-time on the side. Ask them to tell their friends (Realtors are well connected and word of mouth is free advertising with built-in credibility), if you see your business taking off – then thats the answer! And, yes, by the way – Realtors in Houston often use people to help them with photographing home, making flyers and mailings, etc. As you know, image is everything in that business.

Linda asks…
How can I export a self researched, potential marketing but not well-known products (IT area)?
Our IT products are market potential but not as famous as those from IBM, HP, Lenovo…. It is self-researched. How can I promote our products abroad?
Our products include: trusted server, trusted disk storage system, direct attached storage system (DAS), trusted firewall, SVN, UTM, HIS, EMS, digital rights management system-digital watermarking, CA authorization and automated remote network security testing system, etc. There is a selling point among these products: trusted. Trusted technology is put forwarded by TCG(trusted computing group with its TPM(trusted platform management)idea which specifically is an security measure by inserting a hardware-based encrypting chip into the compute system or network system and is the fundamental way of network security solutions rather than software based solutions in the surface.
The basic parts of our products keep identical as those of famous brands, for example, Xeon CPU. The features of our trusted products are as below:
? Identity Authentication: using CA and PKI technology and having authority to issue digital certificate.
? Authorization: only identified and authenticated computers can be authorized with the service of the trusted server.
? Recording: ability to record the activities of each of its login computers, either working dependently or together with a log server.
? Encryption: encryption of the sensitive system data to secure the system operation.
? Disaster recovery: backup of the data in the hardware and make a copy after the damage in a auto-start way.
How to make infamous products popular? How can I do the export? Looking for oversea agents a good solution? I have been really anxious these days. Hope to get your suggestion. Thank you in advance!

Victor answers:
Well I hate to keep this answer so short after your long and detailed question but you will probably need an export management and/or logistics company to get physical copies of your product on your way. Either that or a good Law Attorney that specializes in this area.
I’m in noway an expert on this but I do know it’s very complicated. Laws. Political reasons many things based on Religious beliefs etc.
I’m not a specialist at this so it could be much simpler but doubt it.
Also maybe some of your software products could be sold and marketed via internet, and well known Internet Companies such as Ebay, CNET, or Amazon. For downloads to be published for Free advertising. Http://Download.com (CNET) is one example of where you can submit Ideas for trial downloads of software or Programs for sell.

Donald asks…
answer this case please help me?
CASELET A: Designed for ECIL – Mentoring
Pushpak Guthedar is working as a sales engineer in your company. Balli Engineering Ltd., manufactures and markets Electric pumps and motors. Your company does both direct marketing to industries and sells through a dealer network spread all over the country.
You are a senior sales engineer with 10 years experience in this company. You are second senior most at Hyderabad branch after the Branch Manager. You are a star sales person and very important to this branch.
Pushpak is mild and timid. His father is a government servant in Karnataka and mother housewife. Pushpak has studied in Taluk and Dist. Head Quarters in Karnataka. Only for his degree he came to Hyderabad, where he is staying with an uncle. Pushpak is very good at written English, statistics, making reports, analyzing and market research. But his spoken English is not fluent and he suffers from total lack of self esteem and confidence. He speaks only when spoken to in office. In parties he is always in a corner. His sense of dressing is very poor. He is dark, small built. He sports long hair.
On the job front he seems to be doing well as far as dealing with dealers is concerned with whom one has to converse in Hindi or Telugu. But he has not been successful with direct industrial sales. He hesitates to meet decision makers and mostly avoids them. He only meets clerks in purchase departments and depends on them for everything.
You get a rumour from Head Quarter that in one year’s time you will be made the Branch Manager, since the present incumbent may be elevated. You want to work on Pushpak and make him like you so that your Branch can perform better.
Please give your plans and demonstrate one face-to-face session with Pushpak.
CASELET B: Designed for ECIL – Mentoring
You are a senior project manager in Infozee Software Co., a leading software solution provider with operations in USA, Europe, Australia and India.
Jathinder Koka is a software developer working in a different team. He has 1 ½ years experience.
He is arrogant. He thinks being a software engineer in a multi location reputed company is good enough to take him through the life. He thinks the world is at his feet, since he is working in the IT industry and there is a tremendous short supply of software engineers. He thinks he has already learnt enough and does not have to learn anything more specially soft skills like communication, team work etc. He generally talks to his peers about his determination to become a Project Manager in next 2 years. He says if this company does not make him a Project Manager some others will.
He has bragged several times about how he has rejected offers from US, quoting reasons such as “a small 2 bit company”, “don’t want to be on the east coast”, “either 60k or nothing”.
He does his work alright but there is a lot of scope for improvement in terms of speed, care etc. He is a bad influence on many other developers who secretly envy Jathinder. Jathinder has not made team work easy for anyone in the team. Jathinder is very sound in concepts. He can grasp new technologies/methods/process quickly.
You want to interact with him to help him realize his potential. Give your plan and one demonstration of interaction with Jathinder.

Victor answers:
I am taking up case a.
I may not produce face to face session but can suggest plan
1.Pushpak is good in written English , reports. You can appreciate him on this matter, followed by a positive note that you can do better. This will motivate him.
2. You may ask him to prepare presentations. As he is good in written English , reports, he will prepare. You may ask him do deliver presentation in English. He will be able to make a presentation as he will have time for preparation. You will help him with cross questions he may likely to face during presentations. This will give him confidence to face people while conversing in English.
3.Introduce him with senior level people of Industries. Ask him to do follow up visits. It is always easier to visit person second time, specially with person like Pushpak.
4.Hope this will start giving positive results. Now ask him to visit industries and specifically ask him to meet Mr. —- (some Senior level person). This will force him to meet that person.
5.Then you may plan face to face session . Explian him how he has improved and how important it is to improve further for his carrier. It is necessary that through one’s own little success he may be realized that he has big potential and he can do better.
Hope you yourself can do better than me and after finishing case A you will not require help in case B.

How Do I Use Bulk Ammo In My Online Business?

Lizzie asks…
where is the best (cheapest) place to buy bulk shotgun ammo online?
trying to find the best deal (per shot) in 12 gauge shotgun ammo the cheaper the better just going to use for skeet

Victor answers:
We all want to know that. Google and look at the big ammo web sites and see what’s in stock. Its a guessing game and ammo prices change like the wind. It takes some clicking to find good deals.

George asks…
Bulk ammo. What kind to get?
Ok, what type of ammo do you all think I should buy if I start buying in bulk? The AR-15, 10,000 rounds and the handguns, about 5000 each caliber. What do you all suggest for the handguns and the rifle? SP, HP, JHP, FMJ, or mix it up? Pro and cons to each. Mission is to just have if SHTF.
It’s going to take a while to build up that amount, but that’s what I want. I have a storm shelter that’s nice, dark, and dry. I’d seal up vacuum tight all the ammo boxs and store them away. I wouldn’t use them, I’d just have them. Just in case of a SHTF scenerio. Aslo, alot of cleaning supplies and replacement parts are a must!!

Victor answers:
Rifle-buy FMJ. Most reliable feed and function. 10 thousand rounds of 5.56 NATO. Wow. I saw Lake City surplus advertised the other day for 800.00 per thousand rounds. That’s 8 grand just to feed your AR (you can get it cheaper, of course. Lake City is generally most expensive). For pistols, I buy a box of whatever from time to time. FMJ in a pistol round may not kill a goblin, but it’ll take him and 4 of his pals out of the fight getting him to medical aid. SHTF ammo is splendid idea, by the way, but I’m hoping we can get out of the current nightmare via the ballot box and not the bullet box.

William asks…
Question about bulk handgun ammo?
Does anyone know a website that has bulk 40S&W ammo in stock? If so can u give me a link. Ive looked on Cabelas.com and cheaperthandirt.com and they were out of stock.

Victor answers:
Try Natchez Shooter’s Supply next.

Helen asks…
Where do you get the cheapest bulk 12g ammo?
yeah i know about walmart i was thinking like 1000+ rounds

Victor answers:
John,
Now is not the time for the cheapest deals. There is little competition between brands right now. In mid-August before the beginning of game bird season (dove) starts is when you see the great deals on #7 1/2 shot, but especially #8 shot. There will also be some deals on #6. You might find some deals on slugs prior to deer season, but this type ammo usually stays at or near its current value. Keep an eye out with the big retail stores that offer shotgun shells. Be safe.
