Our payment methods have changed over the past few years. A lot of this change can be contributed to the advancement of technology. In previous years, if we wanted to purchase something, we had to have cash. We would hand the cash to the physical merchant, who would hand us back our change, in cash. If we wanted to purchase something in a catalogue or over the TV, we would have to send in a check. The process would take weeks, and we would be responsible for balancing our checkbooks. Today, if we want to purchase something, regardless if it is in a physical store or over the internet, we use our credit or debit cards. The cards automatically withdraw the money from our accounts. Although the entire transaction process is more convenient, it also makes the likeliness of fraud and identity theft much easier.

In our increasingly globalized world, the simple truth is that we need to ship things. Most of the things we consume got here by shipping, and many of the things we produce will travel by shipping. But another thing to consider — how mindfully we conduct ourselves and how we can make the world a better and more sustainable place.

The high winds and driving rain that ripped through the city last week left its toll. While no houses were damaged and no lives were lost, the trees have suffered. And as individual homeowners and entire neighborhoods hire tree trimming crews to help clean up, streets throughout a variety of neighborhoods still need attention. For some, this means contacting street sweeper rental companies to come through and help gather the remains of the storm and the trimming.

Trade shows present an opportunity small business owners will rarely find. What is a trade show? A trade show is a place — perhaps an expo, or even a convention — in which business owners, entrepreneurs, and inventors can show off their wares.

With that being said, we have to acknowledge the major issue that comes with trade shows: competition. At a typical trade show, there will be dozens of competitors looking at the same investors or clients you’re targeting.
