Christmas is coming up and if you have realized the papers have gotten thicker then you know as well. Every store nationwide is sending out sales papers to let everyone know what they have and how much. I believe you could find a better deal online but if you wait they will be backordering and you may not get it before Christmas. If you haven't done your shopping I recommend looking in the paper for the next couple of weeks until you find what you are shopping for. Its a great way to advertise for big businesses.
This past week I had an opportunity to go to Kentucky. It is unreal how different the people are and economy is in every state. It was such a low income town that we went to that the places to stay at was only twenty dollars a person to stay in a house. There was only one caution light in the town and a post office. I just wander what people in a town like that does for money. It would blow your mind if you could ride around this town and just look at the peoples houses that they lived in. It was pretty country and farm land everywhere. I do recommend going one day to see the sights.
I am pretty sure that after watching the video of Dr. Tony Alessander I will never fly. I knew people always had trouble when they got to the airport with the departure times but I didn't know it was possible to have that many problems. I believe that there should be an easier way to get to the airport and leave without having to go through so much trouble.
I didn't see Cullman Alabama on the list but I believe its a very good place for a small business. The reason for that is because most of the people here are against all the Wal-Marts and other big business just because everyone here is friends with some small business owner. There has been many of times at a outdoor store I used to work at where the people would come in there and pay more just because they didn't want to go to a big business.
The best person that I can think of is Brett Farve. Brett was a NFL quarterback for years and now that he has retired he has his own braces for athletes and he's in many commercials. The best commercial that he is in is Wrangler. Everyone knows him now from that commercial that had no clue he even played in the NFL. I am a true believer in the saying that you got to have money to make money. I believe that he makes more money now from commercials and his own product then he did being a quarterback.
When people pump gas there is a good chance of getting it on you. Myself included have gotten it on my clothes or vehicle many of times. Many of the things that you could ask someone about would lie to you about whatever it was. The best thing I can think about is asking someone if they have ever slipped down. I would probably say that I had before but its embarrassing when you fall down in public so you always deny it.

I finally got everything going the last two weeks and its been a success. I got the most two most important things ordered for advertisement, business cards and a sign to go out in front of the business. I believe they will help tremendously with my business after seeing how much they help other people. I'm hoping one day that I get big enough to get a bigger sign, building, and more cards to give out!

I believe everyone's profit margin is completely different. Everyone is going to know someone better than someone and get better deals. Also, they might buy more product and get it cheaper. I Also think places that don't make much on most of their stuff, always has some product that they can get away for selling three times the amount they pay. So in closing I don't think anyone really knows what people exact price is on their own product.

When you checkout at walmart its hard to not buy more then what you already have. They have anything from candy to phone chargers. The thing that bothers me is how they hve drinks by the registers that everyone always has to have. Where they get you at is the drinks are over two dollars and  if you would wait and buy them from the machines in the front of the store they are just one dollar. The other stuff they have is also over priced. If people would buy the small things at a General store they would save money but when people are checking out and they already have to pay for something they dont care about the price.

Under Armour is one of the biggest line of sports clothing. It has been around since the late 90's by a student at Maryland.  The logo is more than just a ''H''. If you look at it, you can see a ''U'' on top and an ''A'' on the bottom. There is many other logos that has a meaning to them as well.

I just got the building I'm going to do my taxidermy in this week. I'm really wanting to get a big sign up in front of it for advertisement. I believe I can get a lot of people to stop in if I have everything I'm selling on the sign. I am also going to get the deer I mounted and put them in the store so everyone can see when they come in.

I know everyone has seen the Powerball billboard. Probably the most talked about billboard around. Everyone dreams about winning it and when they see it they all talk about what they would do if they won it. Personally I think I would have a big farm, nice truck, and a nice boat. what about you?

I'm pretty sure everyone has seen this billboard before. This has always been my favorite kind of to look at going down the interstate, just because they look so realistic. I seen one today and it made me think about how much more money they put in to a billboard like this one so I assume more people pay attention to them or they wouldn't be making enough money to pay for it. If I become rich off my business you better believe I'm buying one of these!

I believe that one of the biggest things about a company is their slogan. Slogans are a catchy way to attract buyers who may not have considered the company before.  I have always seen Real Estate signs around Cullman depicting different slogan ideas.  I never really payed attention to it until this week. the one that caught my attention was Happy Homes Real Estate.The name always sounded dumb to me but the slogan was something like ''All Homes should be happy''. It makes sense after reading it now. For my Taxidermy business I believe if I have a good slogan not only would it attract people to bring me their animals but I also could attract people to purchase t-shirts and hats.

When starting a business it is very stressful. I personally have started a taxidermy business and continue to try to get it to grow. The thing I most enjoy about it is how everyday is different so it never gets old. I get asked if I can make a living in taxidermy a lot. The answer is Yes! The main thing to focus on is that it takes time to make money while your spending most of it before you get it. Confusing but if you done it you would understand. There are many laws in Taxidermy on what you can mount and what you cant. So there is a lot of research to get started.

 To start a Taxidermy business you will probably need a second income to help build the business. All of the money that you get from doing taxidermy should be put back into the business for the first few years.
