Senior executives have been concerned about this within their company for some time... and for good reason.   There are many descriptions of what employee engagement is and what an engaged employee looks like. In recent newsletters, we have discussed these areas. If you missed these articles, contact us and we will send them to you right away.   An engaged employee is: Willing to put in the extra effort Have high levels of loyalty Have an emotional bond to the company Promote the company as "the employer of choice" Strive to inspire peers   Are your employees engaged? According to a Gallup Study and a recent report from SHRM, on average, employees were only moderately engage. In addition, employee engagement levels have been consistent for the past several of years.   Average levels of engagement: 29% actively engaged 55% non-engaged 16% actively disengaged   What does this mean to businesses? Lost productivity costs businesses $350 billion per year (Gallup)    Companies with highly engaged employees were 200% more profitable (Watson Wyatt Worldwide)    One disengaged employee can bring down performance by 30%-40%. (Felps, Mitchell & Byington)   Business performance suffers greatly due to disengaged employees.   Mission, Vision, & Values must be congruent and understood by all employees in order to increase employee engagement. Connect each employee with the overall strategy & success of the organization. Help everyone understand the "big picture" and how they contribute to this overall strategy. Reward engagement consistently based on each individual's values, motivators, EQ, & behaviors. Always be on the lookout for disengaged employees and take action quickly.   If you have any questions about this article, or about how we can help in creating a highly engaged workforce, contact us today!     Engagement is the key to organizational success!   ~ Gary Sorrell   Call or email us  for more information. 800-821-2487 or 770-860-9464 Written by Gary Sorrell, Sorrell Associates, LLC.

Yes it is!     In today's environment, we must do more with less. Each person is working harder, expected to do more, and all with fewer resources. IE: not enough help, need more supplies, not enough time, etc...   So time management is vital and critical when having meetings. Unfortunately, many of the attendees view meetings as a waste of their time. Often they turn into complaining sessions with little or no direction and / or a reason for the meeting.   You, as the leader, must take control of the meetings and make sure they have a purpose, objectives, and are time bound.   When scheduling a meeting, it may be helpful to remember the acronym POT.   Purpose - define the purpose of your meeting. Why are you having a meeting? Send the agenda to all participants prior to each meeting. This way they will know why they need to be there and it also gives them the ability to add a topic to the meeting.   Objectives - What needs to be accomplished? Set an agenda and list the topics to be discussed. Each topic should have an allotted amount of time and should total the overall meeting timeframe. Set aside suggestions that don't fit in the current meeting agenda and address them (if time allows) at the end of the meeting or put them on future meeting agendas.    Time bound - What is the duration of the meeting? Set up a start and end time. Meetings need to start on time. Don't wait for people to show up or review for those that are late. That wastes the time of the people who showed up on time. Do not go past the end time unless it is absolutely vital and the participants agree to the additional time. Ask the participants to help keep track of the time so you don't run over. If the meeting leader/organizer does not show up on time, the meeting should be considered cancelled and attendees should go back to work.   Junk meetings are worse than Junk email. They waste a lot more time and money. At least with junk mail you can set up a folder and hit delete.    Stop unnecessary meetings like the "standing weekly meeting." Meet when you actually have something to discuss.   If your meeting does not meet this criterion, than you should not have it and toss it in the POT. :)   Have a happy productive meeting!

There is no doubt that general intelligence and technical skills contribute to high performance. However, to truly succeed consistently, one must also possess a high level of Emotional Intelligence (EQ). EQ is the process of recognizing, managing, and appropriately leveraging emotions within yourself and with others. The value of emotional intelligence increases dramatically with job complexity. Research has shown that those with high EQ are 127 times more productive than those with low EQ. Through his research, Goleman has concluded that the key differentiator between star and average performers is EQ.   Emotional Intelligence is the ability to sense, understand and effectively apply the power and acumen of emotions to facilitate high levels of collaboration and productivity.

Six Steps to Creating a Great Affiliate Marketing Website - Marketing

Affiliate marketing is a great way for a person to earn money online without doing much of anything. When you practice in affiliate marketing, you are creating a revenue for yourself, the web owner, by promoting a merchant from your website or blog. When you become an affiliate marketer, you have the potential to make anywhere from 10% to 60% commission on each sale that is made from a customer clicking on your link to the merchant.

If you're serious about wanting to become one of the many that are making a lot of money being an affiliate marketer, you will first need a good website to place your advertisements. You can be an affiliate marketer without a website but your profits will not be as much as it would if you did. Here are a few basic steps that you can use to create your very own affiliate marketing website.

1. Domain Name

When you're beginning any website, you'll need a good domain name. It should be a name that is easy for you to remember as well as attract visitors to your site. Your domain name should also be one that goes with the type of website you are looking at creating. Your domain name should also be SEO friendly so that the search engine webcrawlers can attach themselves to your site.

The richer keywords you use in your domain name the higher in the search engines your web page will appear. There are software tools available that can assist you in creating your domain name if need be.

2. Choose the Niche of your site

Your site should be of something that you know a lot about. It should not only be a passion of yours but also a passion that can be marketable on the internet. The Niche that you choose for your site should attract the visitors' time and again to keep the internet marketing going.

3. Content

You need to have content related to the topic you are building your site around. Do not just fill your site full of boring ads and pay per clicks because that will only chase your visitors away. Your content should be keyword rich as well. The more keyword rich your site is, the more visitors will visit your site and as a result, the more money you will make.

To make a great affiliate marketing website you need to also provide information about the merchants you're advertising for in your content. This will make the visitor click on the link to visit the merchant and as a result you will make money.

4. Traffic

You need to make sure you keep the traffic to your site coming. Make sure you make your site keyword rich as possible. The more keywords you have in the content portion and domain name as well, the higher on the search engines you will be. This will keep the traffic going to your site and your affiliate marketing campaign will continue to run. If you fail to keep the traffic coming, you will fail at your marketing campaign.

5. Tracking tools

Put tracking tools within your website. This will give an idea of how many visitors a day you are averaging on your site and where they are coming from. If your visitors begin to decline, you may need to change your content to drive them back in.

6. Find your advertisers

The final step in building your site is to find the merchants you want to promote on your marketing site. The more merchants you have on your site, betters your chances of making more money. You can go to places such as clickbank to find your merchants you want to promote.

There you have it, your website is now up and running. Now all you have to do is wait for the visitors to come and your money will begin to come in. Affiliate marketing is an excellent way to make money online with a great website.
