An ARMONIA-EMMY Experience, on how to transform Poverty!

The year 2015 was a transformational year for many people and I had the opportunity to talk, meet and be with many different people in many different places, one of them being Oaxaca, Mexico. 

For me, 2015 started with the trip that a group of entrepreneurs during the first week of January to the city of Oaxaca, Mexico, with the International Entrepreneur Foundation and the National Association of Experts, Writers and Speakers. Our Mission was to teach ‘entrepreneurship’ to the teens at ARMONIA while helping them build an Entrepreneurial Center. 

Not only did we have a learning experience on our own; it led to the making of a wonderful documentary “ARMONIA: Together Transforming Poverty into LIFE!”.

The weekend of Dec. 05 the whole ARMONIA Documentary team gathered in Ft. Lauderdale, Fl., as the documentary was nominated for an EMMY Award. It, of course, leads to new and even greater opportunities for so many people around the world who live in poverty and can have a better future. It is a new approach to end Poverty, as the late Dr. Saul Cruz explained.

If you want to see the documentary and help the ARMONIA proyect you can watch it on the following link: ARMONIA The Movie! The film was directed by Emmy Award wining Director Nick Nanton and produced by incredible people. I am very glad to be part of that team of talented individuals.

Join me on this important show as we learn what we together do in order to transform Poverty into LIFE while creating a more harmonious world Listen HERE!

Creating new Business Ideas

We all need to focus on creating ideas and product or service innovation. Creating an idea is one thing, generating a business idea that creates a trend is another one. 

An Idea has been defined as any conception existing in the mind as a result of mental 

understanding, awareness, or activity

Business ideas come from many areas, places and may have many forms. And there are entrepreneurs, managers, business owners who are constantly creating new ideas. The products and services we use today are just that: the result of an idea well executed ad implemented in order to generate the new products and services the market place requires.

Join me take a look into business ideas and business trends. Listen HERE.

Increase your Performance through Time Management!

We all have the same amount of time.

Some use it wisely, some invest it, and some waste or spend it.

For any person or professional that truly wants to stand out, to make a difference, to improve your performance, you need to ‘Manage your Time Effectively’.

Time is one of the few precious resources we have in a limited basis.

The better we learn to use it - and as we improve constantly - the more we can achieve. And as you start implementing new tips and ideas to better use your time, you can increase your performance, your results and have a more balanced life.

The end result? Also increase your potential!

Increase Performance with a Customer Service program

Customer Service and Customer Satisfaction are part of the Key elements to run a successful business. 

Every time a customer buys from you, you need to deliver an excellent product with an incredible level of service that will allow you to satisfy your client, make them recurring clients and allow them to speak about your company in a way that he/she will bring new customers to you.

A big part of this success is not only based on what you do and create, but also in the way you deliver your products and services. This is why training you team members to deliver an exceptional customer service is a key ingredient to increase your performance.

Customer Satisfaction will then lead to customer Loyalty. This is why it is so important to put in place a complete process to understand where you are and where your company is in the level of services that you provide and work towards always improving it.

Ask yourself this question: are your customers happy with the level and quality of the products and services you are providing? Review what you do and keep doing it better.

Listen HERE! and learn how to improve the way you treat your client and you will help your company grow!

And keep improving your Performance!
