Testing Lead to Preventive Measure

Why testing is important for any product? Everybody knows about it but ignores it intentionally, especially when change is minor. Normally, people assume that for small changes why we should spend so much time on testing. The reason is, we are using so many tools and technologies available in the market without even knowing 20% of its usage and implication. Do we really aware of these tools being passed all the testing hurdles? Do we really understand the limitations? Do we understand internal complexity of it? Do we analyze if it would be fit for our project? Even though, if, it is known to the architect/designer, is this knowledge pass down to the developer level? The answer is NO!!!!!

That is reason why I would suggest having more review & testing time than earlier.

Testing team should be completely different from development team and directly reporting to client. That way, client can ensure correctness and completeness of development. It is a difficult thing to convince service industry, but, client should make themselves aware of these facts.

Software testing is to ensure the business and technical requirement is being met based on the test data and controlled as well as uncontrolled operating conditions.

Software testing is a process of creating test cases based on requirement (both business & technical) and run it under conditions to see the expected results. The result in software testing is either pass or fail. You can compare this to your exams!!!!! It is the examination time for development team.

There various methods that can be used for software product. But, the methods should be chosen based on following criteria: 1. Type of project/product (Development, Maintenance, Support,) 2. Size of the project/product 3. Type of talent in the team Testing is a major contributor in deciding on preventive action to be taken.

Companies normally put good amount of money on quality, six sigma, CMM assessment but one thing that they forget is all these processes will work perfectly when you have strong review & testing team/process. Unless, you understand every possible issue, small or big, there is no way you can prevent it in future.

I remember one incident when we were developing a client based product. This was the time when we were hardcore developers. We have developed it with solid design (using OOPs methodology, those days it was bigger achievement) and used all the robust objects under VC++. The product got developed and I was assigned to do the testing of the product. I did the testing and passed it. However, one of my friends had some doubt on this and sat with me for another round of testing. We have tested this product by running the same application again and again. After testing it 14th time, there is an object in the menu got disappear!! Subsequently, for each cycle of testing objects are getting disappeared

The problem was we release an object which is created by us, however, as per the guideline this object will also get released by compiler as well.

The Importance Of Personal Growth And Building Your MLM Business

Having a successful MLM business can give you the money that you have always dreamed of having. But there is another benefit to having a successful business. Personal growth is another factor that figures into a building a successful MLM business. You may not think that you have confidence now, and that might be holding you back on a successful start in this business. But once you have achieved a goal, even a small goal, your confidence level will start to grow. This will, in turn, draw more people to you and help you reach your next goal.

Many people who have joined an MLM or started their own business started with very little money and some had a lack of confidence. As they continued to work at their business and achieve small goals that led a path to their larger goals, they began to develop a stronger sense of confidence in themselves that did not just help them financially, but also on a personal growth level as well.

If you have not reached a goal that you have set already now or in the past, then it requires you to grow and get out of your comfort zone. If you have never made any real money in the past with your Network Marketing business, then you must achieve some major growth before you can attain the financial goal that you desire. Personal growth helps us improve ourselves and at the same time improve our Network Marketing business. When we do this, we not just help ourselves, but we make a profound impact on the other people around us who are looking for leadership. Personal growth helps us tap into that hidden genius that we all have inside of us.

Personal growth is not something that can be rushed. It is not a technique or tool to make a quick fix. Personal growth is the attitude you have that you are constantly improving your life. Personal growth is driven by your desire to improve yourself and becoming the leader that you are searching for. It is a life long pursuit because the game of life is a work in progress!

Personal growth is not just about achieving confidence, although that is a big part of this process. The new freedom and confidence are like a snowball that keeps growing as you continue to roll it. You will start to see personal development in other areas of your life. You will begin to appreciate yourself and as a result, others will appreciate you. The personal growth that you receive from building a successful MLM business will not only help you get financial freedom, but will also help you in all aspects of your life. This includes your personal life as well as your relationships with friends and family. As you continue to grow, you will start to see a difference in the way that you view life as well as the way that others view you.

You will also be reaching out to form relationships with people you do not know. This, in itself, is personal growth as you begin to see others who may come from different backgrounds or cultures as who they are as people. Having a successful business with a huge downline forces you to develop relationships with those in your network as well as others who are also in the same boat as you. It changes you for the better as you are able to open up your eyes to a whole new world that is out there waiting for you. As you continue to grow both personally and professionally, you will continue to build a successful business.

If you think that building a successful MLM business is all about the money, think again. Most of those who have succeeded in this business find that they gain more from learning new skills and meeting new people than anything else. Personal growth will make you a better and more confident person who feels comfortable with yourself. Once you feel comfortable with who you are then you will start to attract those leaders that will help you build your business. You will no longer look at life the same way again as you continue to reach out to others, learn from others and grow as a per son with your MLM business.

Personal Growth and Development : Mom Entrepreneurs Personal-growth Means Business-growth

The beauty of direct sales, or any entrepreneurial business, is that there is a direct connection between your personal-growth and your business-growth. Watch your business grow exponentially as you personally develop and grow.

In direct sales we??re looking for something better. We want to improve our lives, we may want a way out or a chance to change. As an entrepreneur, if you??re willing to invest in your personal growth you have the ability to shape your own destiny. That freedom appealed to many of us when we started our business.

Are you committed to investing in your personal growth?

In my last Coffee with Kim??my monthly online meeting for Metromom members??I was impressed by how many women are committed to their own personal-growth. In our lively conversation, it was soon apparent that these women recognized that they need to invest in themselves in order to be successful. Most of them have coaches they are working with and see the value of o ur monthly Metromom trainings.

But, maybe you??re thinking to yourself... I don??t have the time or I don??t have the money. Moms often suffer from guilt. Many entrepreneurial moms I know feel guilty even thinking about putting themselves first, so their needs are often relegated to the backburner.

This reasoning won??t support you in achieving your goals. You can??t afford NOT to invest in your personal-growth as an entrepreneur and even as a mother. Instead of feeling guilty, recognize that when you invest in yourself everyone in your business and personal life benefits along with you.

So how do you invest in your personal growth?

There are many different ways you can invest in your personal-growth. This can involve every aspect of your life??from your health, to your spirituality, to your emotional well-being. Even if what you??re doing appears unrelated, you??ll see results when you care for yourself.

Of course, as a business owner a lot of your focus will naturally be on ways to expand your business. Here are a few specific ways that investing in yourself can achieve dramatic results in your business-growth:

Hire a coach

Join a mastermind group

Invest in marketing advice??trainings, books or audio CDs.

Go on a bu siness retreat

Participate in local networking groups

You don??t need to make all these investments (of time or money) at once. Start with whatever investment you find to be motivating and realistic so you??re not tempted to procrastinate. Make a commitment to yourself and then take action.

Part of the philosophy behind Metromom.com is that we all need to continually invest in ourselves. I was thrilled to hear in my Coffee with Kim phone call that so many women are doing just that. They are getting involved in a community of women that are smart, savvy and successful??women that will help them breakthrough to the next level in their business. I encourage you to embrace your personal-growth and watch your business grow as a result.

Premier Pure MLM: Is Financial Investment Really Not Required?

Some of you readers would know that Magnetic Sponsoring was my very first investment one year after I stepped into Premier Pure, my primary MLM company. To date, I've spent close to a thousand dollars on information, software and services related to network marketing, web technology, psychology, copywriting, social media and etc.

The silly thing was that before Magnetic Sponsoring, I was never of the mindset that I had to invest a single cent into my business. From my observations, most newcomers to the industry have this impression as well. This can be traced back to 2 main reasons.

1. Most people enter the industry with a J-O-B mentality, with zero education in entrepreneurship and zero marketing experience.

2. Prior to my decision to sign up with the company,I was assured that I would not have to invest a single cent. Everything I needed to learn and apply can and will be provided by my uplines,the team I'm in and the company. Till today, I still come across Premier Pure distributors showing presentations to prospects and subsequently reassuring them that there will be no investment required and thereby, no risks involved. Even I was guilty of saying that when I was brand new to the trade.

The reason why these combined can become a huge obstacle your success in business, is this. If you're like me,and most other people, you probably joined the industry without any prior business and marketing experience or success.

If this was the case. The first thing you ought to do is to get yourself educated. Yes, you'll have to spend money on mastering sales and marketing, and not blow your cash "trying out the company products for yourself so that you're convinced". There's always time for product samples later.

If your team does happen to offer free marketing training for real,count yourself lucky. But more often than not, these so called trainings only deal with salesmanship and closing prospects within your warm market*. What's missing and really important for having a profitable and healthy business is education in marketing - the art of getting qualified prospects to FIND YOU.

*I wouldn't flat out claim that warm market approach does not work. I've had limited success with it. However, getting results from this approach it has got more to do with the quality of an individual's pre-existing social network and his relationship with those in there rather than true marketing ability. There's absolutely nothing wrong with this approach as long as it is done professionally. The actual problem is when your entire team depends on it as the main strategy (or lack thereof). A normal person's warm market is usually not targeted or large enough to sustain any business and generate sufficient referrals. You should, however, share your products or opportunity to your warm market passively and as a supplement to your main marketing efforts.

As a result, a common scenario would have an entire team of Premier Pure distributors using outdated and ineffective ways to run a business. Regardless of each individual's ability to upgrade themselves, and a convenient excuse you'll hear from most MLM leaders is that "more advanced marketing strategies are too difficult for the average person and not duplicable". You may or may not be an average person. If you ask me, I definitely did not go into marketing to remain an average person with an average income and average lifestyle.

Bear in mind that mediocre methods will yield you mediocre results.

When I understood this truth, I decided to go out of my way to master real world marketing techniques that my uplines, my team and my company could not offer me. I couldn't stand to settle for unprofessional, second-rate methods and struggle like everyone else. You do not deserve this either.

I still believe that Premier Pure is a viable opportunity for any budding entrepreneur on a budget. You don't have to spend a hell lot of money for a start, but you'll still need to be prepared to spend some money.

As far as running a business is concerned, there will always be some sort of risk involved. Even if your opportunity does not require you to purchase anything in order to participate, you're putting your time at risk. Everything has an opportunity cost. Without investing time and money into your business, it's profitability and growth will be limited. Don't let anyone fool you into thinking otherwise.

I highly recommend that your first purchase be an information product that introduces to you core marketing principles, Magnetic Sponsoring for instance. This will give u an idea of how the various marketing tools and systems out there are gonna fit into your business model.

With that being said, do understand that network marketing is not a get-rich-quick scheme where you can expect to see results in days. If you're in desperate need of cash, please go get a job and come back to Premier Pure later. And choose the right team for yourself.

If you'd like my opinion on any sort of info product or marketing tools you've came across but felt unsure about, feel free to talk about it in the comments section.

Genesis PURE Review - Is Genesis PURE A Scam, Or Is Genesis PURE Legit?

You have probably seen a lot of commotion in the multi-level marketing (MLM) business arena regarding a relatively new company called Genesis PURE. Does Genesis PURE offer a valid product? Is the business opportunity that they offer a legitimate one? I will be taking a closer look at these issues in my Genesis PURE review.

Genesis PURE was just recently launched in 2009, and has joined forces with a booming health and wellness industry. Genesis PURE offers nutritional beverages, anti-aging solutions, nutrition supplements, and weight loss products. Their products are manufactured with the highest standard of natural ingredients, and do not possess fillers, sugars, and preservatives.

You will never find Genesis PURE products on the shelves of grocery stores or outlet malls, as their products are distributed exclusively through Genesis PURE Independent Business Owners (IBO).

As an IBO, you will enjoy 7 various income streams that are featured in the Genesis PURE compensation plan. These include:

1. Retail Sales
2. First Order Bonus
3. Revenue Sharing Pool
4. Team Earnings
5. Generation Check Match
6. Leadership Pool
7. Luxury Car Bonus

As you begin your recruiting efforts, and train your downline to achieve success in their Genesis PURE business, you will eventually begin to participate in the full rewards of their compensation plan. It is important to note that Retail Sales is the only feature in their compensation plan that will reward you for your personal selling efforts. All the other components are based upon your ability to grow your organization, and increase the sales volumes of your team as a whole.

For those to desire to become a Genesis PURE IBO, you can do so for an annual fee of $37. With this $37, you will be committing to their Autoship program, which will ship products that you select to your home on a monthly basis. If you do not want to participate in their Autoship program, you can sign up for an annual fee of $47. As a new IBO, you will be provided with a Genesis PURE Virtual Back Office to assist you with the day to day operations of your business.

What kind of training can I expect as a new Genesis PURE IBO?

Genesis PURE firmly believes that prospecting amongst your warm market will be an effective and powerful way to build your business. You will contact friends, relatives, close associates, and neighbors to encourage them to purchase your products, and join your business. The marketing and business building training that you will receive from Genesis PURE will be based upon these methods.

In my opinion, Genesis PURE offers a legitimate opportunity for the right kind of individual. They are not a scam. If an individual had the expertise to utilize more modern methods involved in marketing, they could do very well. For the individual who is going to be limited to their small network of family and friends to grow their business, this may prove to be much more difficult than they might realize. With that being said, if you have a passion for health and wellness products, and possess the skill sets and resources to build this business, Genesis PURE is a solid opportunity to partner with.

As always, I wish you the best of luck in your research for a home based business that is best suited for you and your talents.
