Mind Your Own Business

Thursday, September 18, 2008

It can be very irritating and frustrating when someone feels that they just have to butt in to your conversation. It really tests someone's nerves when someone has to constantly know what they're doing where they're going, and why they're doing that. But what if you are the one doing it to other people. You don't want to annoy people, so here's how you can do that.

Try not to butt in. Some people might have no trouble minding their own business and could care less about what you're doing or talking about. But others can't help it. It's just natural for them to butt in on everything.
Ask yourself why you are butting in. Before you go interrupt someone, ask yourself: "Does this concern me?" If what they are doing is going to somehow affect you in anyway, then it does concern you. But if it's just gossip or someone is going out with their friend, then it doesn't concern you.
Walk Away instead of butting in If you figure out that it doesn't concern you at all, then walk away. Don't be near the person so you don't even get a chance to butt in. If it does concern you, then you have a right to listen and interrupt.
Become oblivious and disinterested. Try to be the least interested in people as possible. Be oblivious to what goes on around others. If you feel the need to interrupt someone or find out what they are doing, think about it first. It's just like the saying: "Think before you speak".

This doesn't mean to be oblivious and completely ignore everybody. Just learn when the right to interrupt someone is and when it is your business.
Some people may have problems minding their own business that are really serious. If this is your case, then you may want to see professional help.


Some people may not want you to mind your own business. If not minding your own business is something you do naturally, then stopping will be considered not "being yourself". A lot of people would rather you just be yourself.

Choose a Contact Management System

Most growing companies find themselves in need of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software at some point. Choosing the right one can be tricky and there are more things than just cost to consider.

Make a list of what you are trying to accomplish. For example: you may be trying to track contacts and leads, as well as keep track of your tasks for the day. Different contact managers and CRM packages offer different features.
Decide on what deployment option you need. Traditional Software vs. Web Based SaaS(software as a service). Web Based contact manager packages give you the flexibility of accessing your data from any computer but some find issue with keeping their company's data off-site.
Compare initial and long-term costs. Some CRM may be inexpensive for the first year but could cost you a fortune in the long run.
Choose one that caterers to your business and size. Just because you have 10 users doesn't mean you should be using a CRM that Microsoft uses. Choose one for your size and expected growth. Don't get stuck with one that is only designed for a single user!
Once you find answers to all of these questions and narrow your choices down. Spend time in their trials, all decent ones should give you one, and see which ones are easy-to-use. It could be the best time you can spend, and could save you from making a costly mistake.

Give the CRM companies a call. Someday you may need support, you should know how they respond to this early on.
Look at the fine print. Does the cost of your subscription go up after the first year? Do they charge for technical support?
