Customers Are People Too
Be more concerned with your character than with your reputation. Your character is what you really are while your reputation is merely what others think you are. --Dale CarnegieFor as long as I can remember, right up until when he retired a few years ago, my father ran his own appliance repair business.

Business Broker Network
A business broker network is basically a group that has a number of independent business brokers or brokerage firms. These firms could be based in different countries. Such network groups offer a much wider range of business opportunities to their clients. The network groups are able to offer more businesses for sale or purchase. So if you want to buy, sell or star

With the advent of technology such as Jyve Pro, it is possible for us, all of us, to sell our time over the internet. We all have something that is of value to someone. From the examples above, perhaps you could provide a review of an emailed x-ray in a discussion on Skype. You could tutor children, anywhere, in your particular area of expertise. Or you could provide legal advice. Maybe you an expert in how to remove red wine stains from cream coloured carpets. Regardless of what it is, there is value and you just need to know how to find the market for it and commodotise it.
The value in all of these can be delivered via voip, with minimal infrastructure cost, and charged on a time basis. This type of technology will allow us to be more efficient, work far more flexibly and commodotise far more of our knowledge than has ever been previously possible. This is the future. This is Fractional Work.
So where do intermediaries come in all of this? What's not going to work in a distributed work environment is everyone searching for everyone. This takes time and therefore costs money. Bring in the intermediary. Intermediaries will broker introductions and deals, in a similar way to recruitment companies operate now (although hopefully much better). The difference? They will be virtual, you don't need to meet with anyone, you just need a need.
Online Intermediaries are the millionaires of the future. People with truly global reach who understand both their clients requirements and their associates value offering.

Mechanical Truck Wash Equipment VS Human Labor and Hand Washing
There is a big debate in the truck washing industry currently in whether it is better to go totally automatic with a mechanical robotic truck wash system and equipment or used human labor and hand washing to clean all the trucks. If you ask a truck driver or a trucking company they would prefer a hand wash because the job comes out better and because less things a

Mobile Oil Change Business and Corporate Office Complex Customers
One way to run your small mobile oil change business is to go after the customers who are employees at large corporations. This works well, although can be problematic if you do not set up the way you do business and maintain the schedule properly in advance. But one new comer to the industry writes to ask me a question on the business model and this type of potent

Why Do Most Network Marketers Fail?

This is not a new concept. Sarkar, Butler and Steinfeld wrote about this in their paper on cybermediaries. Camrass and Farncombe referred to this role as the Webspinner in their book The Atomic Corporation.
Establishing yourself as a cybermediary will be easy, perfecting it will not. The early adopters will gain a swift and massive advantage over their competitors that will be difficult if not impossible to react (successfully) to. If you're interested in being ahead of the game, get in touch.
Now there is only one thing left that can make this fail in it's entirety - trust. You will need trust before you're willing to offer an individual some work. You will need trust before you engage with an intermediary. The quicker you do this, the quicker you will win clients. Now you're building a reputation, this creates implicit trust with potential new clients. Now all you've got to do is keep up.
Clearly, there is a killer app' - Trust is the killer app
