Last week I received an email from Nightingale Conant, a company that is dedicated to helping people realize their full potential. They produce and distribute 1000's of motivational, sales, inspirational and educational books and tapes. The email last week included a link to a movie that I thought was fabulous. It's called the 212 Movie. It shows how one extra degree of heat - or effort - can make all the difference.

Dear Ann,
HAPPY NEW YEAR! Here we are almost half-way through January of this exciting new year - 2008! According to numerology, 2008 is a ONE year - a year of beginnings. I'd like to invite you to consider what new beginnings you would like to bring into your life this year. Is it a new career, new mate, new hobby? What can you do to truly create everything that your heart desires? Remember, the more you focus on your ideal outcome - the sooner it can be yours!
This month, I am introducing you to a new business planning tool that I have created called Bottom Line³™- PEOPLE, PLANET and PROFIT. It's a process that helps you to assess and address your strategies in each of these 3 areas. You can order a FREE Report by clicking on this link which will take you to the sign up section on my website:
Bottom Line³ ™ is a business philosophy that promotes the benefits of having a balanced strategy for 3 distinct, yet related business components: people, planet and profits.
Bottom Line³ ™ is based on the Triple Bottom Line (TBL), which was originally released in 1994.It was developed by John Elkington as an accounting method to capture the impact of corporate decisions on these 3 components.Bottom Line³ ™ (BL3) expands TBL into a strategic tool for assessing and addressing the needs and priorities of people, planet and profit.
First, let's define what we mean by people, planet and profit:
People:
¤Stakeholders:employees, customers, vendors and investors:training, compensation, partnerships, collaboration, communication, relationships
¤Culture:environment, benefits, perks, positive, supportive, team, vision and mission
Planet:
¤Legacy:leadership exit strategy, culture development and procession, long-term impact on market, what does management want to leave being known for
¤Community:involvement in the community, service work, contributions to causes, socially responsible investing and purchasing, impact on planet, environment, sustainability
Profit:
¤Products & Services:current and new product and service developments, quality control, real needs in the market
¤Sales & Marketing: Long term and short term sales strategies, scope and scale of company growth, brand and market strategy
In the coming months, I will share more information about how to use this process to increase your profits in ways that truly serve the greater good! If you would like to work with me to bring BL3 to your organization, please email me at annranson@verizon.net to set up a complimentary consultation.
