1. The Curse of Professionalism in Your Business

Heart Of Business

Professionalism
is defined by the Oxford American Dictionary as
"the competence or skill
expected of a professional." Notice that
the definition only refers to
"competence or skill." Nowhere in the
definition does it say that
you have to starch your shirt, speak in
multi-syllabic gobbledy-gook, or maintain
a robotic-like unemotional
composure in your writing and speaking.
Risk
a little. Take some chances. and see your business grow:

Scammers Use e-Mail, Fax to Pose as IRS
The Internal
Revenue Service cautions taxpayers to be on the lookout for a
new wave of
scams using the IRS name in identity theft e-mails, or
phishing, that have
circulated during the last two months. In May and June
alone, taxpayers reported
almost 700 separate phishing incidents to the IRS.
In 2008 so far, taxpayers
have reported about 1,600 phishing incidents to
the IRS.
