There don't seem to be a lot of specifically Christian business resources out there. If you know of a good one, please submit it so I can include it!
| Effective Communication: Art Of Eloquence. While aimed at Christians of all ages, Art of Eloquence offers tools specifically useful to Christian business owners. "Our mission is to teach effective communication to the Christian community in order that they may learn to stand up for their faith and honor the Lord in all they do and say!" Features include weekly tips, free resources, a monthly newsletter, and the adventures of FIMM (Foot In Mouth Man)! |
| Christians at Work: TheHighCalling.org. This website is all about the high calling of our daily work and daily lives. "TheHighCalling.org seeks to connect people with the faith that undergirds and sustains all that we do. That's why it is the high calling of our daily work. Daily work embraces all aspects and activities of daily life - including home, community, leisure, as well as occupation." Great articles and audio resources. |
Useful and interesting business resources.
| Virtual Assistant: Admin Services. Virtual Assistant Gazelle Simmons offers data entry, presentations, word processing, database management, editing, proofreading, and mass mailings. Gazelle is a member of the American Business Women's Association, Women Business Owners, Woman Owned, SmallBizPreneurs, LinkedIn, Business Owners Idea Cafe, Soflow and Meetups.com. Gazelle is a Christian business owner and works ot of Newnan, Georgia. |
| Canadian copyright information: CIPO (the Canadian Intellectual Property Office). If your business involves publishing anything - from books or CDs to promotional materials - you need to understand at least the basics of copyright. "In the simplest terms, 'copyright' means 'the right to copy.' Only the owner of copyright, very often the creator of the work, is allowed to produce or reproduce the work in question or to permit anyone else to do so." (A Guide To Copyright, CIPO). NOTE: you can find out more about copyright on my Copyright page. |
| Marketing: Creative Marketing Solutions. Be sure to subscribe to Marcia Yudkin's free Marketing Minute Newsletter. Marcia's quick weekly newsletter - it really does only take a minute to read - will give you all kinds of great marketing tips. While you're on her site, be sure to check out Marcia's other marketing services and resources. Marcia operates out of Goshen, Massachusetts. |
| Free Stock Photos: Morguefile. Speaking of copyright: Morguefile is a great source for free, royalty-free stock photos for personal or corporate use. The photographs on Morguefile have been made available by the photographers for specific uses, free of charge. (Don't forget to check out my own free clip art here at Dustwood Media!) |
| Office Software: Open Office. My heart belongs to Microsoft Office - but if you need a good, reliable, and inexpensive office suite, this Open Source (free) suite is the one to get. Open Office includes a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation program, database, and graphics program. |
| Canadian office and computer supplies: Staples. I have to recommend this well-known chain of Canadian office and computer supply stores! They have a great selection of office supplies, furniture, and technology products (computers, phones, fax machines, etc.), and their prices are reasonable.
What's more important, though, is that they offer exceptional customer service. For example, I recently bought an item which it turned out I couldn't use. I contacted Staples about returning it (from Trail, BC to Kamloops -320 miles away) - and they PICKED IT UP and gave me a complete refund! Gotta love these guys! |
