Wendy Recommends Are you "Over Your Business?"Leela Cosgrove’s Over Your Business Bootcamp is taking place in Melbourne from 21-23 August. The goal of the Over Your Business Bootcamp is to show you how to use the twin skills of productisation and systemisation to create $100,000 of income in your business over the next 12 months, working no more than 2 hours a day. This isn’t some kind of MLM or Network Marketing scheme – the idea is to take the business you have NOW and turn it into something that pays you to do ONLY what you love. I urge you to attend a F.REE preview session (valued at $97) in a city near you. Check here for locations. It's ART: Wear It! Local Artist Helenmary Burnside is presenting the Community Event - It's ART: Wear It! at the Louis Joel Arts & Community Centre in Altona, Melbourne on Friday 24th July at 7pm.

Feature Article Next Steps to Own Your Own HomePeople will always want a home in which to live with their loved ones. The good news is buying your own home is totally achievable. But many of us don’t know where start and how to get the ball rolling. Careful planning and strategising are essential. Planning involves determining your budget, financial capabilities and financing options, working out the type and size of the house you want, its location and deciding on which solicitor to use to settle the transaction. After the planning stage, the next most important step is to figure out your finances. With a budget in mind, it is far easier to look for your specific property. Contact your trusted finance broker to establish exactly how much you can borrow and what you'd be comfortable repaying each month. From there, you can start searching for your ideal house. Look at the stock avaiable with real estate agents in your chosen area. Scour the internet. Check the local papers. The classified section of the local newspapers is a great place to look as you just may stumble across a real gem. If advertisements have photos, make sure you can personally verify what you see is what you'll be getting! That's why inspection is the next crucial step. In Australia, sellers are not required to disclose any defects they are aware of in their house. For this reason, it is essential to personally inspect the property inside and out or if you’re unavailable to do so, have someone trustworthy person to check it for you. If you’ve finally decided on purchasing the family dream home, obtain a copy of the contract for sale. Now is the time to find a solicitor who is familiar with contracts of sale for the area in which your house is located. They'll be able to check the contract for any irregularities or "gotchas". By following these basic steps and ensuring you do your due dilligence, you'll be that much closer to owning your dream home. By Wendy Moore WANT TO USE THIS ARTICLE? You

3 Question 4 It takes a lot of determination and dedication to succeed in business. What keeps you motivated?I have always been a fairly self-motivated person, perhaps because of my strong background in sport (I was an age group rep in water polo and won regional and national medals in swimming and surf lifesaving). I guess what makes me jump out of bed every day is that I love what I do and I want to do well both for myself and my family. It’s all about lifestyle for me. If my business is more successful and I manage it well then I have more money to do what I want, when I want and more time to spend with my family. I love the flexibility of being my own boss.

1. Document everything you do so you
only have to do it once! Place your documented procedures, log ins,
templates, contact details, systems etc on a wiki (I
use www.pbwiki.com) so your staff and you can log in any time,
anywhere to access key information. It’s also a great backup
system.
