Mobile Phone Number Blockage

February 27, 2008 By Leave a Comment

An interesting discussion I just had with one of my clients. You see he rang me to ask a question about a seminar happening on copywriting this Saturday.

When he called the number on my mobile showed ‘withheld’ which means he had blocked his phone number from being seen. Or in other words he didn’t wish to reveal the phone number he was calling from. He left a message on my voice mail and when I returned his call I asked why he does that. i.e. block his number.

His answer was sound and reasonable in so much he doesn’t wish people to ring his business or him with unnecessary or unsavory calls.

“Hmm”, I replied, “I don’t answer any blocked calls anymore because if the person doesn’t wish to reveal themselves I am happy for them to leave a message and I will reply in my time.

Both of us are right because it our business we are looking after and protecting.

What do you do when a phone number is blocked? Do you answer it or cancel the call?

Leave me a post and let me know.

Cheers and Great Selling

How to Answer All Those Difficult HR Questions

February 25, 2008 By Leave a Comment

“Announcing The New HR Manual That Has Done All The Hard Work For You.”

Hi

Are you responsible for putting together the company’s HR policies and Procedures?

It can be tough at times, can’t it?

  • Do you find your staff asking questions regarding their entitlements?
  • Are you worried you may not be complying with the entire Anti-Discrimination, Workplace Bullying and Racial Vilification Legislations?
  • And what does “Vicarious Lia.bility” really mean – Can you really be held responsible for the unlawful actions of your employees?

If you could obtain a Human Resource Manual jammed packed full of easy, up to date, usable HR Policies and procedures…which answers all these questions and more…

Well…

how helpful would that be ?

One that contains over 85 detailed individual policies and procedures templates covering all the major areas of HR including:

  • Recruitment and Selection;
  • Conditions of Employment;
  • Performance Learning and Development;
  • Behaviour and Cod.e of Conduct;
  • Administration and Support.


Well, NOW you can.

Yes, a HR Manual which will sav.e you hours of work and frustration is here.

Based on Australian Legislation and conditions, the Instant HR Policies and Procedures Manual is a must for any business. All templates are contained in Word Documents which makes it easy for you to insert your personal details such as your company name throughout.

HR Policies and Procedures written just for your company would normally set you back at least $10,000. Comparable quality products on the market cost over $1200 for the manual and are only available as an adjunct to costly coaching programs.

I have been in the HR consulting aren.a for 30 years and I have never seen such a comprehensive HR Manual as this, for the price. It should be at least 3 times the cost. I know the first policy or procedure you put into place will easily pay for the Manual.

So get your Instant HR Policies and Procedures Manual NOW, you will be so glad you did.
