Home Renovation Issues To Be Aware Of

Two focuses of my blog are Home/Living Discussions and Home/Property Discussions. Renovations and repairs are an aspect of home ownership whether it’s your primary residence or an investment property. The following contributed post is entitled, Home Renovation Issues To Be Aware Of.

When it comes to home renovations of one the biggest budget destroyers is the unexpected. While contingency funds are not uncommon when undergoing large-scale renovations they are rarely sufficient to cover all the unexpected expenses that occur. A healthy contingency fund should be around 10-20% of your build cost. Try to remember that a contingency fund is just that. It shouldn’t be used for last-minute purchases or optional extras. Keep it until the very end of the project as it could be needed at any stage, including the latter ones.

One of the most common problems when undergoing renovations is water and when water is a problem it will eat into your budget like nothing else. Whether it is water damage or unexpected problems with accessing water, it is notorious for hampering home renovations. A particularly common problem is unknown water leaks. These can often be lurking behind walls or under floors and have seemingly gone undetected. It is only when knocking down walls or tearing up the floors they come to light. The effect of damp can be devastating and extremely costly. Water can also pose problems where renovations are likely to take place over underground water pipes or third-party access points. It may be that your property contains the access point to the water supply for you and your neighbors.

It is essential therefore that appropriate surveys are carried out before undertaking any big build or home renovation project. These should help bring to light any potential issues that may arise and highlight the property’s waterways. If any issues are identified it is imperative that all domestic water services are handled by professionals. Adam drillers, for example, specialize in domestic water supply, and by using professionals you will ensure the work required is completed to the highest standard and in line with any legal or third party requirements. This should also prevent you from any future unwelcome surprises. The last thing you want to do is pay for work that is doesn’t meet its legal requirement to then have to spend more money ensuring it is up to standard.

On the subject of professionals, it is vital you use highly qualified and trusted tradespeople. After all, this is your home. It needs to be safe and secure. Renovations commonly require the use of builders, drillers, electricians, and plumbers to name a few, all of which play their own essential role in completing the renovation successfully. When choosing the professionals to work on your renovation obtain several quotes and do not always be drawn by the cheapest. It can be the cheapest quote for a reason, perhaps they have forgotten to include a costing or got their sums wrong.

What is more, if you are outlying large sums of money on large home renovations you want to be able to trust the people you pay to do it. If they get it wrong it will only end up costing you more in the long run. Any money you saved on that cheaper quote will be redeployed to rectify their mistakes. Finally, experienced professionals are the best people to have around should those unexpected issues come to light. They will have the knowledge and know-how of how best to solve the problem. Research your tradespeople, look for reviews or recommendations and ask to see a portfolio of their work to help make your decision.

Regardless of whether you’re looking for a water damage restoration company, plumber, tiler, or anyone else, you’ll need to keep these in mind. You’ll need to ensure they pass certain quality marks to make sure they’ll do quality work on your property. You wouldn’t want to have more issues to deal with in the future; the cost could skyrocket if that happens.

Whether you’re revamping your tired bathroom or doubling the size of your property never underestimate what is involved in home renovations. Remember these three words to help get you through all aspects of the project: Research, Plan, and Budget.

What Will Happen To Commercial Real Estate Now?

Two focuses of my blog are Financial Literacy/Money and Business/Entrepreneurship. Residential real estate is not the only type. Another major area is commercial real estate and that sector was significantly affected by the events of the last year and a half. The question lingers in terms of what to do with the vast inventory of commercial real estate that may not be needed any longer. The following contributed post is entitled, What Will Happen To Commercial Real Estate Now?

Due to the challenging recent months, people are arguing whether commercial real estate will be left to rot, or roar back to a thriving success. What hangs in the balance is literally billions if not trillions of dollars. Commercial real estate is essentially the premises of businesses. If businesses have most of their workforce working from home, then what will draw them back into the office once more? Some say that the thing that will bring employees back to the office, isn’t the office itself. The culture of the workspace matters more than ever. So how can commercial real estate help to foster change, bring people back into the skyscrapers and make these empty shells useful again?

Work with your building owner

If you are a business that operates within a high-rise building, working with the owner is vital. The owner will already know the challenges you face. One Of the ways you can team up is to consider the challenges of commercial real estate and the virus. Working with a commercial real estate services company that can make your office virus-free is the very first step. They will assess the area, find out what kinds of threats there may be and completely sweep the area from top to bottom with anti-bacterial solutions. They’ll make a plan and begin to consider what kind of health and safety improvements can be made, in order to give confidence to your workers.

Boardrooms to bedrooms?

One way or another, the empty skyscrapers you see in your city have to make a return on investment (ROI). If the future really does consist of remote working en masse, this will mean that some level of conversion needs to occur. Empty office buildings might have to convert to hotels to some degree. This will be a massive undertaking. It will be something that takes time to complete so it will require a huge amount of commitment. The saying now is, boardrooms to bedrooms. The large flat space that office floors provide, will make it easy to space rooms, create lobbies and create luxury apartments or penthouses to rent. It will boost the tourism industry but what will it do to the business and financial districts that have always been exclusive to men and women in suits? Time will tell.

A great opening

Large to medium-sized businesses take up the bulk of commercial real estate space. So if about 50% of their workers work remotely, what does this mean for small businesses or startups? It means there is a gigantic opening in office space. For the first time ever, office building owners will be giving small businesses, entrepreneurs and startups a fair shake. They will be begging for them to take up some of that empty office space and if they are smart, the small business owners will negotiate a favorable renting contract.

Commercial real estate has it’s back up against the wall and everybody knows it. It’s vital that it adapts, adjusts and is willing to change to the demand for hotel conversion, more renting space, and small business office spaces.

Beyond The Basics: Savvy Tactics Make Your Digital Marketing Even More Effective!

Three focuses of my blog are Financial Literacy/Money, Business/Entrepreneurship and Technology. Marketing is one of the most important parts of a business. In today’s digital age, it is critical to understand how to use the digital tools available for your marketing. The following contributed post is entitled, Beyond The Basics: Savvy Tactics Make Your Digital Marketing Even More Effective!

* * *

So you have set up social media accounts for your business, and you have a website! That’s great, yet to get the best ROI on your digital marketing you need to go beyond the basics and make use of some more advanced approaches. Luckily, you can read about the most critical ones in the post below.

UX User experience

User experience is a vital consideration for any company looking to boost its digital marketing efforts. Indeed, many think of UX as the most important part, because it provides an opportunity to show customers many things such as that your business can be trusted to do things well and that you care about your customers, rather than just profits.

With that in mind, investing in UX is a smart move. This means enhancing your site so it’s easy to find things, easy to use, and looks great too. It also means inviting feedback both positive and negative. After all, the negative feedback concerning UX is hugely valuable, the reason being that it will tell you why people are unhappy, and so allow you to fix it!

Use the data to make informed decisions

Marketing is no longer about working on gut instincts. Instead, there is now a myriad of data strewn at our feet, just waiting to be used as a guiding light for the next step your business needs to take.

Unfortunately, many of us have trouble sifting through and understanding this data to the point where we can discern any meaningful information. This is where the services of a digital marketing consultant can become invaluable, as they can perform an analysis of the data, using it to craft an action plan for your next move. The great thing about such consultants is that they tend to offer a range of other digital marketing services as well, including support, advice, development, and implementation. All of which are of value to any business looking to move their business beyond the basics of digital marketing.

Encourage referrals

Last of all, when it comes to improving the success of an online marketing campaign, never forget the value of referrals. Referrals happen when a previous customer refers a prospect to your business, and in doing so implicitly or explicitly recommends your products and service.

The value of referrals is that they require barely any work to convert into a sale, as your previous customer has done the heavy lifting for you. The good news is that you can use some specific tactics to encourage more referrals. In particular, this means offering a discount, or a cash bonus to any customer that refers to another, making it easy to do so with an easily chargeable link. A method that can be very effective in motivating customers that have had a good experience with you to evangelize to others and so help boost your business’s digital marketing capacity beyond the basics, as well as increase your company’s ROI.

Your attitude towards life and your career will have a direct impact on your ethics. An improved work ethic is easier achieved when you attain a better attitude, one that is more dedicated and passionate. Finding your passion for your career can be challenging, especially if you are in a place of work where it is hard to progress. Yet, with the right attitude you can achieve greater success more quickly. Here are some tips.

Use coaching
Coaching is a great way to change your outlook on life. It can help with work-life balance, personal, or career goals. With coaching, you can learn from those who have a positive attitude and have used that to achieve great things.

You will want to consider high-performance coaching to get the most of your experience and achieve your goals more efficiently. This will allow you to improve your attitude towards life and your career, which can enhance performance and help you attain greater success.

Have a trigger phrase
Many coaches introduce trigger phrases to their clients. It helps maintain a positive attitude and helps them work on their progress alone. After all, a coach cannot be with you to maintain your mood and success every minute of the day.

A trigger phrase helps ignite an emotion. For instance, a positive trigger phrase such as “pushing through will help me achieve success”, will instill into your mind to keep going to attain your goals. These trigger phrases will help boost your business mindset and ensure that you maintain the right attitude at all times.

See failures as a way to improve
Everyone experiences failures in life, especially throughout your career. You should see them as a way to develop a positive attitude and help you improve. When something goes wrong, you can use the mistake to avoid it from happening again. To do so, you might change the way you work, which could improve your business and help you achieve greater success.

Never allow failures to bring you down or make you give up. They should be seen as a stepping stone for improvement.

Surround yourself with the right people
Those that surround you can have a direct impact on your mood and your attitude. If you surround yourself with lazy and unpassionate people, then you might struggle to stay positive and want to strive for greater things in your career. Likewise, if you surround yourself with driven business-minded individuals, then it will push you to be the same.

Even if you find that your friends are not the best people to be around for your career, you can still see them. Just spend more time focusing on people who bring positivity and the right attitude into your life.

Although we may experience a poor attitude from time to time, there are ways to maintain the right attitude. This will help you have a better business mindset, feel more content in your job, and achieve more success in your career.

Update A Tired Bathroom With These Tips

Two focuses of my blog are Home/Living Discussions and Home/Property Discussions. One of the most important rooms in your home is the bathroom. Likewise a key room to update is the bathroom. The following contributed post is entitled, Update A Tired Bathroom With These Tips.

* * *

Our bathrooms are a necessary component of our house. They are arguably the busiest room in the house after the kitchen, especially in the mornings when the whole family is attempting to shower and get dressed. The bathroom must appeal to more than just the family. In the event of guests or visitors, it must also be attractive and pleasant. Of course, a decent shower and bidet toilet combos are a must for comfort but the smaller details can make a big difference.

Your bathroom will not make a good first impression if it is outdated and drab. The issue is that entirely renovating a bathroom may be pricey. But have no fear: here are a few basic strategies for updating a tired bathroom on a tight budget.

Image

#1 Storage solutions

Even a large bathroom can appear cramped and small if there is a lot of unwanted clutter and rubbish in it. Get rid of anything you do not use or need, and try to finish a bottle of shower gel or soap before purchasing another. Look for storage in cabinets and cupboards loaded with beautiful baskets and tubs to help you become organised and provide the illusion of more room.

#2 Give it a fresh coat of paint

This applies to almost any space, but notably a bathroom, which can rapidly become grimy and tired-looking. A fresh coat of paint, even if it is simply plain white, can breathe new vitality into a room. If necessary, colours can be added later with accessories. If you do not use a paint specifically made for bathrooms, it will fade very quickly, so pick the right one.

#3 Purchase some new towels

A new set of brightly coloured, fluffy towels can transform a bathroom. Consider how you will display them: will you roll them up and place them on shelves or in boxes, or will you think outside the box and use antique ladders set up against a wall as a towel rail, which is quite popular right now?

#4 Clean up the grouting

Grouting between tiles that is grubby will always detract from the appearance of a bathroom. Buy a grout pen, which can be found for a low price at any DIY or hardware store, for a quick remedy. Grind away the previous grout and replace it with a new compound for a better look. It takes a little longer, but it looks better in the long run.

#5 Accessorize, accessorize, accessorize

This could be the most enjoyable part. Polished chrome accessories are the way to go for a timeless style – towel rails, toilet roll holders, door handles, and robe hooks are just a few examples of easy and inexpensive upgrades. Vases of artificial flowers and candles, as well as paintings for the walls, can all provide a beautiful touch.

Giving your bathroom a whole new lease of life does not need to be expensive or time-consuming. Sometimes, it can be the smallest and simplest things that make the biggest difference.

Tips for Building a Successful Property Portfolio

Two focuses of my blog are Financial Literacy/Money and Business/Entrepreneurship. Real Estate has been a pathway to wealth for many people. One of the keys is gathering up as many quality properties as possible. The following contributed post is entitled, Tips for Building a Successful Property Portfolio.

Building a property portfolio not only takes investing money but also time and careful planning. It is crucial that you set goals, research the market and plan your property moves carefully if you want to turn it into a fully-fledged business.

Expect at the start, to be spending time and energy on ensuring the upkeep of the properties as well as general maintenance. When you have a good number of reliable properties, you can start to outsource those tasks.

Here are some top tips to help you build your property portfolio.

#1 Set clear goals

Defining exactly what you want to gain from building your property portfolio is key to success. This plan will guide all future property locations and purchases, and ensure its growth. If the main goal is building a sustainable income from property management, then you can set milestones along the way so you know how many properties you are aiming for, what investment you need, when you can outsource maintenance tasks, and a realistic timescale. Goals will also help keep you motivated.

#2 Ensure the properties are in good condition

Unless you have unlimited funds and time, investing in a property that is in decent condition can keep your project moving forwards. It may seem like a good idea to invest in a run-down property because you can purchase it at a lower cost, but it will take a lot of time, money, and energy to fix the project with the added risk of losing money rather than making money. This is where sticking to your goals is important to continue growing your business because it will mean making a profit quicker.

#3 Seek new opportunities

Once you are comfortable with a few properties, it might be time to seek new opportunities to help increase the equity in the properties. You can dedicate some of your budgets to renovate the properties and add extensions, or even add extra amenities in the house so you can divide into a house share. There are endless opportunities when you have a more flexible budget to grow your business even more.

#4 Be prepared to work hard

While growing your property business, at first it is going to mean getting your hands dirty in order to stick to the budget. This can be anything from interior and exterior repairs, maintenance, fixing any issues as well as sorting contracts. It might be beneficial to invest in basic household equipment such as cleaning supplies, high-quality tools such as lawnmowers, wheelbarrows, and the best commercial weed eaters (you know how hard those are to remove!) as well as basic office supplies such as a printer. This basic equipment can save you a lot of time and money and can be used in all the properties to cover the basic maintenance and duties of the landlord.

When embarking on the property portfolio journey, while it can be challenging, it is worthwhile. Take time to do your research, set goals, and plan, to ensure your portfolio grows quickly and turns a good profit.

Transforming Your Loft (Making It More Than A Place For Your Christmas Tree)

Two focuses of my blog are Home/Living Discussions and Home/Property Discussions. If you own a loft, you may want to upgrade it and increase its functionality. The following contributed post is entitled, Transforming Your Loft (Making It More Than A Place For Your Christmas Tree).

One of the big problems with any family home is that there isn’t enough room to have everything you want. This means that with a constant overflow of kids’ items we struggle to store stuff, so this is when things go up into the loft. But that loft is going to waste. No doubt, right now it’s full of junk, not to mention the Christmas decorations that come out once a year. But a loft has plenty of scope to turn it into whatever you want, not to mention a place for storage. Let’s show you what you need to consider if you want to turn the loft into a recreation space.

The Practical Conditions

Of course, you’ve got to make sure that your loft is going to be able to house everything you want. There are things you can do to make your structure stronger, such as adding insulation. You can get spray foam insulation, which sounds too good to be true, but when you consider the overall spray foam insulation structural strength, it can make a difference in improving structural strength, especially when you apply it to walls and ceilings. You should also think about storage solutions that fit around the sloping roof. A loft sounds fantastic in theory, but is it going to be an uncomfortable experience? It’s also worth making sure that the roof is actually sturdy because you don’t want the conditions to hamper your enjoyment of the space.

Controlling the Environment

The loft is one of the greatest spaces because of its sheer length and breadth, but this usually means it’s not the most comfortable, because it’s close to the roof, and therefore closer to the elements. Ensuring that you can personally control them is crucial. Think about the temperature and light levels, and how you can regulate them to guarantee the optimum amount of comfort. You can incorporate blinds to control the sunlight, but you must also think about insulating the space if it’s not warm enough. A loft is a wonderful place for storage, but if you want to turn it into something more, it’s got to be comfortable.

Making it Look the Parts

When you’re designing a space like a loft, it will feel different from the rest of the home. It’s important to make sure that, when you are setting up a loft to help turn this space into something with more recreational uses, you’ve got to choose the right ambiance. This means picking warm and neutral colors but also recognizing that the loft could serve as a space for storage. It’s important to not get clutter built up because this could cause a very stressful environment. There are ways for you to get around this, such as floor storage spaces but it’s always worth getting into a minimalist mindset and decluttering on occasion.

The loft is the perfect space that can be used for many different things, this is why you’ve got to make it look the part, but also feel right.

Careers Of The Future

Three focuses of my blog are Career Discussions, STEM and Technology. No matter where you are in your life cycle, it’s important to know which careers will be in demand in the future, especially if you’re guiding younger people. The following contributed post is entitled, Careers Of The Future.

With the development of modern technology more and more jobs and careers are being replaced or re-figured. Once stable jobs are no more and the career landscape looks a lot different than it did ten years ago. Here are some ‘future proof’ careers that are likely to expand and become increasingly lucrative as technology continues to develop.

Cyber Security

Crime as we know it is changing. As technology advances crime inevitably advances with it. Crime is becoming increasingly sophisticated with cybercrime rates mounting year on year. With so much personal and financial data stored in clouds and online, it is no wonder. Crime enforcement agencies worldwide house their own growing cybercrime departments and Governments and private firms across the globe are providing apprenticeships and pathways into cybercrime.

Javascript programmer

Javascript programming is used to develop desktop and mobile applications, big data processes, and so on. It is one of the most sophisticated and high regarded programming languages used worldwide and its usage is only set to grow. To train as a Java Programmer you typically need a Bachelors of Computer Science, Maths, Information Technology, or potentially even a master’s degree. That said, training is given in the workplace and if you have an aptitude for Java you may be able to find an entry-level role. Upon qualification, the possibilities and job roles are plentiful and lucrative. So if you know how to undertake char to string conversion in java or it interests you why not consider a career using it?

Robotics Engineer

With more and more roles being replaced by AI job roles are shifting. While a robot may be able to perform and replace many human tasks there will always be a need for someone to make and maintain these robots. Engineers who are highly skilled in coding and software will find themselves in a desirable position, as hi-tech manufacturing such as driverless cars increase and the use of robotics in warehouses and logistics becomes commonplace.

Data Analyst

Every day vast amounts of data on anything and everything is collected and stored. This information can tell us about people, their behaviors, finances, medical requirements, and so on. It can monitor business performance, or lack of, or be used in logistics nationally or internationally. Data can be collected in just about any sector and put to any use. Someone is needed to monitor, collate and distribute this data so that it can be read, understood, and utilized.

Care Worker

A curveball perhaps? Technology may be the future and may hold the key to many career paths but, the good news is, there will still be roles that do not require a sophisticated level of technological knowledge. With populations aging and medical care advancing people are living longer and with more and more treatable illnesses. The need for care will only grow as technology and medicine develop. A career in care can be hugely rewarding and offer plenty of progression routes.

In fact, job roles that fall under the umbrella of social care will only continue to expand in the wake of the global pandemic, aging populations, and a higher demand for social services. If you are looking for a challenging but rewarding people-centered career then working within the social care and services sector can offer you this.

Outsource Essential Functions

The primary function you can outsource is marketing and advertising. Unfortunately, many businesses fail, not because they cannot generate good content but because they lack the exceptional skills to develop, distribute, and analyze their content.

It’s, therefore, best to outsource content marketing from a company that has the experience, market knowledge, and tools to create content that resonates with your customers. In addition, because this content marketing agency comes with a complete team of experts, you’ll acquire expert services to strengthen your marketing and increase your conversions.

Consider delegating functions your company can function best from external companies such as IT, human resources, and accounting. This will help you increase productivity, focus more on your core business and take essential steps towards expanding your business in the future.

Make Business Events Part of Your Marketing

Marketing is central in leveling up your business; it’s why giant companies like Netflix seem to reach new heights progressively.

With the changing times, it’s crucial to adapt to new marketing activities that resonate with the current market, technology, and demands. On-trend marketing like business events creates value by allowing customers to engage with your company in a casual setting, strengthening relations.

Although business events are yet at their peak, companies are beginning to realize their value, hence organizing more events to appeal to customers. Nothing brings people together like an event that promises a unique experience, and business events do precisely that.

Organize an event for your new product launches, CSR activities, or a partnership event to interact with your customers outside business confines. You’ll appreciate how influential events are towards word-of-mouth and referral marketing.

Incorporate Incentives

Happy customers make for an excellent growth strategy because you build relationships and loyalty daily. In addition, customers love a reason to return to a business; it inspires them to trust and want to engage your business.

Stimulants like a loyalty program or discounts for existing customers encourage repeat customers. Not only does it motivate customers to come back, but it also boosts confidence in your business, allowing them to choose you from competitors.

Besides, incentives will strengthen your marketing strategy by enticing new customers online and offline to try out your business. In a sense, incentives rope in new customers and retain them by promoting confidence and loyalty.

Please don’t give out incentives for the sake of it. Instead, use a stimulus that’ll enhance your customers’ shopping experience with your business. Preferably, your incentives should help customers either save money or acquire supplemental products/services for increased engagement.

Growing a business isn’t rocket science. However, it usually takes creativity and the determination to do what it takes to get your company ahead. The above tips are some creative ideas you can implement to stand out from competitors and successfully scale your business.

Developing Your Company’s Technology For Success

Three focuses of my blog are Financial Literacy/Money, Business/Entrepreneurship and Technology. A key aspect of any company these days is its technology. As such it’s a part of your company that you have to continue to consider and stay ahead of. The following contributed post is entitled, Developing Your Company’s Technology For Success.

In a rapidly changing and fast-moving world at a dizzying rate, owners of high-tech and technology companies must be at least one step ahead. The idea in high-tech is development, innovation, reinvention, creativity, marketing and more. Technological entrepreneurs and innovators need to execute the ideas, and integrate it into a goal-oriented marketing strategy. Every business needs to move in the direction of worldly goals. This includes sustainability.

The ability of the company’s owners to recruit investors is important. This is for the continued development and growth of the business. A very important thing in the world of high-tech and technology is executive coaching. It is great to have new software but if you do not know how to use it, then it can be problematic. It may even be expensive. You must entrust helpers. You must recruit the best. You may even want to look at IT Recruiters.

At the professional and managerial level, managers’ training and development exists in order to expose you to the managers and give you tools. Good management occurs during better function in the tasks assigned to it. Many companies fail at this. Maybe it is because they do not have the time or resources. Either way, it affects sales and sometimes, morale. Every business must strive forward towards the goals, have an open mind, a future vision, and a desire to experiment. If a challenge presents itself, you must know how to meet it successfully. And in the event of failure, know how to deal with it too. You must improve on the way to becoming a better manager. With proven and experienced professional accompaniment, you can raise your personal management levels from good to excellent. This includes the way in which you balance your team’s work, utilise your technology and modernise certain elements.

The security issue also requires special attention

Technology allows us a wide range of possibilities and most businesses and people use them for efficiency and improvement. But they can come with their dangers. There are hackers who try to succeed in harming businesses by hacking into business servers. In most cases, this is due to a lack of maintenance, an old code language, or a security breach. Therefore, the operations team must ensure that these known loopholes are covered. They must also ensure that the system’s language is updated regularly. It must also be in accordance with the advancement of the technology. Companies must be very aware of cyber dangers. Technology is advanced enough now to protect your company. Loss of vital information can be costly. Installing an antivirus is also important, and today you can find quality antivirus software at relatively low prices. This itself adds another layer of protection to your business and your technology. It should be known that the issue of customer information security is one of the most important parameters of a business. This should be instilled into all aspects of training and professionalism. Drive your business forward with good technology and digital safety.
