The Advantages Of Using Microsoft Sharepoint

By John Spencer


Microsoft Sharepoint is being used by an increasing number of companies to help them organise schedules and calendars, manage and discuss ideas as well as allowing individuals in the organisation to share information and stay in touch with each other. The system is created in the form of a website which can be accessed through a web browser and can be used to aid groups of individuals within a company or organisation, for example a team, school or faculty, to share information and work with each other.

There are numerous advantages to using this kind of software. The most immediately obvious advantage to an organisation is the ease by which information can be accessed. Anyone using an internet enabled pc with a standard web browser can access the system. An added bonus is that these days anyone who has one of the latest mobile handsets can also access it whilst on the move.

The use of this software by an organisation hugely simplifies the task of document distribution. Without it, the most common way for a company to distribute files is by email, which may seem a perfectly good way to perform such a task. However, problems will occur when the document has been updated, and users may end up with outdated versions of certain documents. Using Sharepoint eradicates this problem by having all documents stored in one place for all users to access at all times. The documents stored in the document library are always the latest version so there is no danger of outdated versions being used.

The alerts feature of the software is also another advantage. The alerts are sent by email and can be configured by the administrator to ensure that every time a change is made the relevant users are informed. The emails can be sent immediately or at another preset time. There is also another alternative to this, RSS feeds can be set up which note all changes that are made within the system.

Lastly, this system enables users to find the documents they need within the system easily with the use of metadata. Each document can have relevant metadata attached to it so that when a user performs a document search, the documents relevant to the search keywords will appear.

Advantages And Disadvantages To Going Public - S1 Filings - Corporate Expansion

By James Scott


Companies decide to go public for many different reasons: expansion, need for capital, exit strategy, acquisition facilitation, globalization etc. But what are the real advantages to going public? First, let's go over the disadvantages. Your life becomes an open book and as an executive your spending habits and failures will be a matter of public information with your annual and quarterly filings.

You'll be accountable to shareholders. You'll have a board whose main interest is the company and the shareholders no you or your need for a new luxury car, financial bonus or need for a quick loan from the company that was once possible and easy when your company was a sole proprietor entity. You need trading volume and without it your stock is worthless and your company becomes a blind, deaf, mute, quadriplegic (a bit extreme but you get the point).

The advantages are numerous if your company is ready for the public realm. With a solid trading volume, minimal dilution of stock, solid executive management, an active board of directors, powerful strategic alliances and the ongoing advisory of a strategies consultant your company can expand globally, identify and grow through acquisition and subsidiary mergers, purchase entities and services with stock to retain cash flow.

Banks and other institutional lenders will make more funding solutions available. Your exit strategy is built in and turn-key.

The most successful public companies have a few common themes built into their infrastructure. They have recruited a proven and tested CEO, CFO and COO with professional pedigrees and track records that are recognized in the industry and media and will bring with them a strong following of partners and solution mechanisms that will typically yield instantaneous, empirical results on behalf of the company. The board of directors is restructured so that major industry enhancing components are represented such as industry niche legal, financial, distribution, domestic and international. Each of these board members will put their contact portfolio to work for your company for immediate and long term growth and stabilization. One other aspect that all prosperous public entities have is a strategies consultant that keeps everything in line. This individual is also what is referred to as a 'fixer'.

This professional will typically stand in the background constantly analyzing every aspect of the company for weak points and correct them. Whether it be a lazy board member, potential acquisition, CEO not pulling his/her weight, potential legal issues etc., this strategist has a keen eye and typically a massive contact base that, when put into place can correct virtually any situation quickly and seamlessly.

Going public is a great strategy for the right organization. Having all your ducks in a row pre and post public is the key to a successful offering and public markets longevity.

By Teresa K Knight

Nevertheless, there is one minor detail important to the whole prom date: he has to ask you out! Now, how can you get your dreamy crush to ask you out? Although the points on the next paragraphs are not foolproof, they're obviously much better than quietly expecting him to see you as the 1 woman he's always been dreaming about. You have been watching him all year long and you know his character.

You have had this male pal for a few years however , you think there could be something much more than just friends. Spend time and chat with him a little (just like you do every single day) to find out if he is attracted to somebody else or is currently dead-set on asking another girl to the prom. In the event that he has no commitments, there are a few sneaky ideas to get him to ask you to be his date.

Make an early pact with him that in case neither of you ends up finding a partner for the prom night, you are going to go together. Another way is to let him know that you'd like your prom to become a totally fun night without any drama, so you would rather go with afriend than with some random guy. He might just get the hint and ask you. At least, you'll have a wonderful, comfortable prom night. In the event that love blooms, the night only gets much better.

After getting your man, the next task is how to look great for him. When you have naturally curly hair, now is the time to take 100 % advantage of it.

While your hair is air drying, scrunch it just a little to encourage curls. If you do not have the time to let your hair dry naturally, make use of a hair dryer with a diffuser. When your hair is dry, take little strands and curl them using a curling iron to control your curls and give them a styled look. Tousle the ringlets a little with your finger to separate them into loose curls. Then, pull your hair back with a ribbon to match your gown and leave a few strands loose in the back. If you'd prefer a fuller look, cheat a little by adding a curly hairpiece under the collected curls. A flower or rhinestone-studded clip is an excellent finishing touch to this particular style.

Prom dresses that fit you will certainly assure that your guy maintains his eyes on you. First and most important, select a dress that fits the type of physique you have. Forget about a specific item in the magazines. All these sell dreams, and what appears to be a dream dress on the lady in the photo, may look like a nightmare on you. Why? The usual reason: you and her do not have exactly the same figure. Picking the gown that fits your body is very essential.

The Reverse Merger Report - OTCBB

By James Scott


Private Placement Memorandums and Direct Public Offerings, the most common mistakes made. When gearing up to raise capital it is typically a business owners first instinct to simply throw together a business plan and find the cheapest company to put together the private placement memorandum and then seek funding. What these professionals don't realize is that they are doing things in reverse and often times a PPM is not a standalone solution to financial needs.

The first problem is the most companies will first write a business plan and cheap PPM and look for a capital solutions last, when strategically speaking, one should first find a full service solution who has a database of investors ready to fund properly structured corporations with well authored business plans and private placement memos. After you find a company that has a ready network of seasoned investors you will often find that this firm will also structure your business and documents so that you are able to attract the attention of these investors. Next, don't make the mistake of hiring just anybody to write your biz plan. You need to find a professional author who is well rooted in the art of technical writing and has a solid comprehension of your industry.

Now it's time to write the PPM. Here is a warning that will most likely go in one ear and out the other but you must never choose the cheapest service for your PPM you will regret it and this is a guarantee. Investors see these documents all day everyday and they know a template when they see it. Don't believe for a second that you will get a viable private placement memo that will actually achieve funding for anything less than $3,000; it's just not going to happen. There is too much work involved in putting a fund-able strategy together and you'll never find an experienced firm to do it for cheap.

The moral of the story is to first find an investor finder solution with a solid network of investors, second have this company write your business plan and private placement memorandum to fit the needs of their investor base and lastly, talk to this consultant about helping you perform a DPO (Direct Public Offering) to their group. This is what separates the men from the boys in the venture capital consulting industry.

Legitimate consultants who stand behind their work will take your PPM directly to their investor base and help you raise capital quickly. In return for this service the company may want a modest equity position in addition to their fee but it is always worth it and typically they will take the final step and have their investors pay to take your company public. This is the ultimate for any company that is seeking a long term funding solution.

Remember the order: 1. Find an investor finder 2. Have that company write your biz plan and PPM 3. Convince the firm to perform a DPO for fast funding 4. Offer some equity to sweeten the pot so that they take you public!
