Benefits of business Confereces

1. Set your goals and intentions.

 Think about what excites you about this particular conference. Why are you attending? Who do you wish to meet? Consider what you'd like to gain from the experience. Make a list of goals you'd like to achieve throughout the event. Maybe you'd like to have a conversation with one of the keynote speakers or get the contact information of at least 10 individuals. Whatever your goals are, be fully aware of them at all times and try to check off every one.

 2. Plan your time.
 You don't go on vacation without planning your time there; you want to utilize every second as effectively as possible. Why wouldn't you do the same with a conference? You'll likely have access to the conference itinerary ahead of time. Take advantage of it! Choose what sessions will benefit you most, what time you should arrive and who you'd like to see. There should be no confusion about what you're going to do once you get there.

3. Brainstorm questions.
 Come up with a list of questions you'd like to discuss with other professionals in your niche. They could even be questions you've asked previously but would like different perspectives on. Talk to your team about what they'd like to know as well. What questions do they have? Could they be added to your own list? Try to think about things that will advance you in your position and put you a step ahead.

4. Practice your elevator pitch.
 No one likes small talk, but you have to do it sometimes. An elevator pitch is a professional form of small talk in which you introduce yourself, explain what you do, and give a little bit of your background. If you want to keep things interesting, you'll have to practice. Focus on your strongest qualities and what skills you provide. Most importantly, keep it short and sweet.

 5. Hunt for information like a bloodhound.
Speak with as many people as you can. Take detailed notes on topics that interest you, new ideas or concepts, and things you'd like to further discuss with your team. Share those notes with others and offer to swap what you have. Attend as many sessions as you can. Even if a topic does not seem directly related to what you do, you can still learn something when it's from a different angle or point of view. Are there opportunities to speak one-on-one with keynote speakers? If you can, pick their brains. Ask them the questions you brainstormed, or discuss a point they made during their presentation in more detail. Make your experience one that revolves around learning, soaking up knowledge like an old sponge.

6. Network
Networking is what will benefit you more than any other aspect of a conference. Don't be afraid to introduce yourself to new people; they're doing the same thing. It's OK to be shy or introverted in nature, but don't let that hold you back from advancing in your career. Conferences are beneficial because they force you to interact with people and learn new things. According to a survey by Harvard Business Review, 95 percent of business people believe meeting face-to-face is important for nurturing and maintaining long-term professional relationships. Make the most of the experience by keeping your business cards handy in your pocket. By the end of the conference, if you've worked your crafty elevator pitch on enough people, you should have a nice stack ready for further connections. You can also swap email addresses, LinkedIn profiles and Twitter handles for easier follow-up.

 7. Follow up.
 Don't let the connections you made and all that elevator-pitching go to waste. Follow up with your contacts, but gently. You don't want to come off as overbearing or desperate for a business connection. Whether you swapped emails, social media or business cards, use what you have to start up a professional yet friendly conversation. Make it your goal to form a connection that will last. Listen to what they have to say, and don't be aggressive in how you approach them.

Moving forward From here, you should have a list of answers for the questions you formed, a decent collection of emails and social media from new people you met, and a handy set of notes that will aid you in your business endeavors. With the right amount of planning and goal-setting, you're sure to get the most out of your conferences.

Black Friday shoppers ditch their computers, flock to stores

Black Friday is expected to be the busiest shopping day of the year, according to ShopperTrak. Sales are expected to hit $23 billion on Friday, up from $21 billion during the same year-ago period, according to MasterCard Spending Pulse, which tracks all forms of payment, including cash.

A holiday miracle? Stores try to cut down on long lines
NEW YORK (AP) — Retailers will once again offer big deals and early hours to lure shoppers into their stores for Black Friday. But they'll also try to get shoppers out of their stores faster by minimizing the thing they hate most: long lines. At Macy's, shoppers can scan and pay for goods on their own smartphones. And at Target, Walmart and others, workers will be sent to store aisles to check customers out on mobile devices. Retailers hope the changes will make in-store shopping less of a hassle.

Those are just some of the trends expected this holiday season, when shoppers are projected to spend as much as $720 billion, according to the National Retail Federation. Kohl's, for example, is pushing soft sweaters and fuzzy mules. And gross-out games like Pimple Pete are popular.

S&P 500 slides into 'correction' for second time this year
U.S. stocks closed lower Friday, bumping the benchmark S&P 500 index into a correction, or drop of 10 percent or more from its recent all-time high in September.

Now, more than two dozen have moved to take advantage of the ruling, many ahead of the busy holiday shopping season.

7 Psychological Equations to Empower Your Business Mind

1. Introspection + Observation = Emotional Awareness

To be introspective means to look inside and examine your thoughts and emotions. To observe is the act of taking an existential view of yourself to better know how to function at your optimal levels of success. This type of self-analysis eliminates the interference of the more immature emotions which make you fall victim to being reactive, fearful, impulsive or indecisive in business.
The result of self-awareness is the brave and admirable quality of being able to think independently, which empowers you to rely exclusively on the observation of your own mental state to succeed.
With self-awareness you become unafraid to be different, you embrace the uniqueness of your mind, the radicalizes of your ideas and your ability to reason through change -- both positive and negative.

2. Focus + Commitment = Advancement 

Focus is measured by the ability to shut out distractions and place emphasis on what needs to be done in your business to progress forward. Commitment is a measure of focus. Commitment puts meaningful action behind your chosen goals without wavering in your intention.
Work performed deliberately, consciously and intentionally with laser-like focus is summed up in the result of knowing how to advance in business. There is nothing lazy or unclear about a successful person’s intention and subsequent action.
Advancement is the result of being attuned to every move and decision made in the achievement of your goals in a calculated fashion.

3. Honesty + Professionalism = Good Reputation 

Honesty is a measure of integrity to do what you say you are going to do, when you say you are going to do it and to follow through on any delays or quicker advancements by informing all involved. False information is never given as it destroys the integrity of the business equation.
Professionalism is a measure of competency and skill in your business dealings with others, and how your know-how is executed through subsequent action in a reliable way.
When honesty and professionalism are combined you naturally develop a stellar reputation. Because word of mouth is everything in business there is nothing which can supersede a great reputation. The successful understand that reputation has more value to others than their actual business. In this way, if people like and respect you they will like and respect your brand. 
To be successful you must embrace the idea that you are your most important product.

4. Grace + Strategy = Solutions 

Grace is a measure of staying calm under pressure. It is that fixed state of mind which seemingly carries you effortlessly through problems, obstacles and difficult negotiations in business. It is that quality when business is booming and things are flowing effortlessly, you show no ego.
Strategy is a measure of how you get to those higher aims in your business under the umbrella of uncertainty. Intelligent strategies must be attuned to patterns of business behavior and known ways to get to what you want.
Desperation kills strategy and eliminates solutions.
When you have the business mind to approach uncertainty with grace and an awareness of what actions need to be applied to gain solid ground, solutions and success are your result.

5. Belief + Action = Fearlessness 

A sound business mind comes from believing in yourself, your purpose and the direction of your business pursuits. Belief is similar to commitment in that belief slices away all meandering.
Firm belief is the great manager of the enemies of doubt and delay. The only time to delay in business is when delay is used as a strategy to obtain the desired goal, and in that case delay would be a measure of patience.
When delay is coming from doubt it is deadly to your success.
There is no result without action. Action can be summed up as the courage to create measurable movement towards a goal. It is the outward expression of your belief. For actions to be bold beliefs must be strong and determined. This is fearlessness.
Fearlessness in business is your greatest asset.

6. Attention + This Moment = Mindfulness 

To be highly successful, bring your full attention to all business situations and circumstances. To be the cause of your success, give attention to listening, observing and to the gathering of pertinent information before forming opinions and making decisions.
All parts of a business require attention and to be great you must have the mind to never leave any part of your business neglected.
This moment is the moment you have to maximize. To be the cause of your destiny have the mind to understand that what happens now determines what happens tomorrow. With focused attention to the present moment you create the impermeable psychological state of being in touch with all aspects of your business.
When fully present and mindful in your business, you are nearly unstoppable.

7. People skills + Knowledge = Leadership 

At its core, business is all about relationships. To be successful, master the art of charting your own path, while being open to listening and developing relationships which are mutually beneficial and based in integrity, at the same time. Further, to lead a team effectively you have to be someone others are inspired to follow. 
To have a sound business mind, be abundantly knowledgeable in your field. Never hold the belief that you know enough. For you to be the cause of your success there is no such thing as enough knowledge. Knowledge is power. With knowledge you become smart to every new trend in your field, you consistently educate yourself, and choose to be ahead of the game.
Knowledge coupled with proficient people skills builds you into an unrelenting and inspiring leader. This allows you the opportunity to educate all those you lead, and the opportunity to lead all of those whom you partner with in business.
