Category: blog Written by Jeevan Robinson
Last September at the Oval cricket ground in London, I sat in the media centre speaking with the chief cricket correspondent for the Independent Newspaper in the United Kingdom.

Your life is your business. You represent the ultimate brand, and you are selling the ultimate product. If you want the right people to invest in the business of you, you must market yourself according.

Category: blog Written by EBONIE-MARCHÉ JONES
The New Year is fast approaching, and now is as good a time to decide what and whom we desire in our lives. We should avoid starting the year with trash and clutter. The keys to starting a blissful 2012 are organisation and elimination. Sometimes we have a hard time parting ways, even with things and people who are no good. Hence, we never burn bridges; we never shred, and we never discard. We keep going back and holding on.

The Commandments of Business Growth
Category: blog Written by Mark Graham
When I graduated from college in 1997, I started my business career in investment banking. I lasted four months. While the experience was rewarding (I learned how to use Microsoft Excel like a pro!), I found I was more suited for entrepreneurship.
