Welcome to AJS rebranded!
As you may have noticed, our weblog had stalled in August.
So, we have rebranded for the masses with a more traditional twist!
Welcome to the soon-to-be launched Angela J. Shupe: Cheesecakes and Creations. Once launched, we will sell low carb/Keto cheesecakes around the Branch County, Michigan region. While that is the main business, we also offer some hand knitted products on an made-to-order…

Ever wish you could theme your makeup around a specific fictitious character?
Oh, not you either?
Ok, so I am sure someone has. I am also sure that same person is probably thrilled to learn that they can soon purchase makeup themed around Disney villains.
The branding mashup and the idea is brilliant. There are plenty of people who will eat up the idea of creating a full face around their…

Flexible Work Arrangements Make Happy, Loyal Employees
Flexible Work Arrangements Make Happy, Loyal Employees
Well, you have probably heard that happy employees are those that are allowed flexible work schedules and arrangements.
A new study now stands behind that theory!
If you want a happy workforce, flexibility is a key ingredient.
Business owners consider this: What are some of the top reasons your employees call in? Family issues? Sick in bed? Flexibility would allow them the chance to work anywhere

It Is Time To Care Where You Advertise!
Advertising is a huge part of promoting your business. You buy ad space, you place the ad, and now what?
Now may be a good time to put some thought into the context in which your ad is placed.
Many businesses just pay for placement, but they do not consider exactly wherethey are being seen. If you are not careful, your advertising dollars could be used to promote your business on a website that…

Not Enough Women In Top Positions In Business!
Not Enough Women In Top Positions In Business!
The business world is, well, quite male dominated. The perception of a top executive is still that of ‘the man’ sitting behind a large desk, ruling the world. (Look at the In Living Color era skits and you will know what I mean.)
So, how do we change that perception? First, it starts by offering more women stepping stone opportunities within organizations.
Really.
If you want to change the way…

The Dark Side To Bootstrapping Your Business
The Dark Side To Bootstrapping Your Business
The average entrepreneur is not rich. They do not have financers. They often have to sacrifice for success.
Today’s post is about you.
Depending on the business, your sacrifice can be big or small. Some have sold their car to finance success. Some may take out an old-fashioned business loan. Wracking up credit card debt happens too. Sometimes the dream business starts as a side hustle, worked…

Integrity In Leadership Is A Must!
Integrity In Leadership Is A Must!
A successful leader has many traits, but which one is most important? According to Warren Buffet, without integrity, the other traits mean squat!
Ok, that may be an exaggeration, but it is necessary for success. If you wear a mask with the people you lead, if you are not genuine, eventually your true self with crack through that exterior and people will not be impressed.

Now Hiring May Not Mean Drug Screens And Background Checks
Now Hiring May Not Mean Drug Screens And Background Checks
Our economy today has more jobs to fill than talent to fill them. That is why many companies are becoming more lenient with their drug screens and background checks.
Just a few years ago, certain offenses or failing a screening for some drugs would be an automatic fail. Today, employers are so desperate they are willing to overlook some small issues.
Minor drug offense? Who cares! Positive for…

The Patent Battle Gone Right: The Little Guy vs L’Oreal
In true David vs Goliath form, Olaplex took on L’Oreal in court over a patent dispute.
Spoiler: David (Olaplex) won!
It is not uncommon to hear stories of big business smashing small companies by stealing ideas. Court is almost always futile because they have a lot more money than your average bootstrapping, garage inventor.
That is what makes a win like this, well, a true victory.

Intern Wanted: Bacon Tester?
If you want a good paying job for one day, Farmer Boys could really use someone to test bacon at their restaurant. They are paying $1,000.
The Cali-based burger chain is obviously just using a marketing ploy to get noticed.
Hint: It worked.
They are accepting applicants via social media. All you have to do is submit a fun photo or video on Instagram describing why they should get the opening.

Attract The Best Talent With Flex Schedules
Attract The Best Talent With Flex Schedules
If you have what employees want, they will want to work for you. According to Bill Gates, they want flex schedules!
As a matter of fact, that is quite true. Flex scheduling makes an employer more attractive. Not everyone lives a 9 to 5 life, me included.
People are more likely to stay where they are challenged, appreciated, and given the schedule they need.
Many employers have already walked away

Is College Necessary For Success? Many Say No.
The financial cost of college is, needless to say, quite high. At least that is what my own monthly school loan statement says. The real question is:
Do kids today need traditional college to succeed?
The truth is online courses and community college offer kids the same knowledge for much less.
Pick a field and plug it into Google. Chances are you can find information, possibly even courses, on…

Monopolies Are Real, Not Just A Game
Monopolies Are Real, Not Just A Game
Let’s face it, monopolies exist. There are companies that operate as a sole source within their field, and no one is stopping them.
Can you name a few?
EssilorLuxottica is one such company that was recently outed in the news. They handle the bulk of big name eyewear products.
Now, the question isn’t about becoming a monopoly. The question is, how can you compete and destroy the strangleholdthese…
