Whether you’re just starting out or are looking for ways to give your small business a boost, here are some ideas. Hire efficient, experienced workers The best staff will keep your business running smoothly, taking care of all the many processes in the company which keep everything working.

How to Lose the “Quarantine 15”
The world is a topsy-turvy place right now. COVID-19 has changed a lot about the way we live our lives. Many of those changes have led to something known as the “Quarantine 15.” Like the Freshman 15, the Quarantine 15 is weight gain brought on by a sudden life change. In this case, it’s the way we’re all sheltering safely at home. And while it’s good to follow the stay-at-home orders and social distancing recommendations—they can even be life-saving—it’s leading to weight gain for many people. Luckily, there are several simple ways that we can all adjust our habits and lose the Quarantine 15. Focus on Water Sheltering at home—or staying in quarantine—is far from a party. But that doesn’t mean some people aren’t trying to stay festive. Small at-home parties among family members were common in the early days of the virus, and in some places, they continue to be the norm. There’s nothing wrong with lifting the spirits of the people you’re sheltering with, but it might contribute to your Quarantine 15 weight gain.

How Do You Determine The Price Of A Commodity?
Commodity prices are often erratic. This is because there are many factors that affect the demand and supply of a commodity, and thus affect the price too. This article aims to add further clarity to what these factors determining commodity pricing are in order to give everyone a basic understanding of how the market for commodities works. What is a commodity? Before delving into what these factors are it’s crucial to establish what a commodity is. Some prime examples of commodities include; Copper Crude oil Wheat Iron ore Coffee beans Gold In economic terms, you can easily differentiate a commodity by labeling it as an asset whereby if depletion occurred there would be a monumental impact on the world and the growth of specific countries. Let’s use Chile and the production of copper as an example. Chile has control of approximately 20% of the global copper reserves. If the scarcity of copper arose the country would be in a troublesome situation. The export revenue is crucial to Chile’s growth, with companies around the world using global freight transportation to capitalize on Chile’s copper reserves. So, countries around the globe would suffer too. After all, the import of this metal is…

Idea’s For That Hard To Shop For Person (Like me!)
Is anyone else in the same boat as I am, trying to find the perfect gift for someone that appears to have everything? My kids are always asking what I want for my birthday. I want PICTURES of my children. Super easy. Except they think that is lame. I know that I am that hard to shop for person so I have a couple of great ideas. This year I’m suggesting Jet Gift Baskets Jet has a basket for every price range. TONS of things that I love to use (or hint hint) would love to use. Search by occasion, price, recipient. Even shop corporate gifts. Game Day Mimosas, Peace, Prayer and Blessings basket or Ocean Pur Spa basket. So many choices!! Jet has a Mini Burt’s Bees Relaxation kit. It’s so cute! It arrives in a small wooden tray that I can’t wait for Alice to decorate. (ya know I always have a craft for the ribbon, baskets, tins, jars and trays) A nice wash cloth in a light brown; tied with a dark brown ribbon. The entire tray is plastic wrapped and tied with my absolute favorite color of green. Burt’s Bees is and always has been a…
