20 Possible Reasons Why Your Business Is Failing

When it rains it pours! I had my PC almost back to normal and ready to start making calls again when a freak ice storm hit the Saint Louis, MO area yesterday, knocking our power and heat out for the next 3-4+ days! While I'm at work, my wife and kids are at the local civic center for shelter and food. All we have is hot water as the stove is electric! I'm going to try to sleep at home tonight but with the temps dipping down to the single digits, I may have to go to the shelter after all! I just hope the pipes don't burst! So needless to say, I won't be making any cold calls for several days as all my info is on my PC and I have VOIP so no phone either.

Anyway, here is a guest article from one of my newsletter friends Randy Charach:
