7 Types of Employees You Should Fire [infographic]

I know it sounds harsh, but there are simply people in this world who should be fired. They are not a good fit for your team. Some people bring team morale and production down simply by being present. Their negative attitude or habit of bulldozing others in the group is only hurting your bottom line. As a manager, it is your responsibility to take care of your team, to consider their workplace environment, and to actually help manage relationships between them. Sometimes being a manager stinks because you have to do hard things, but you were hired because someone thought you were capable and trustworthy of doing this. So do it. Firing someone is never easy, especially if managers before you have failed to do what should have been done years ago, but be brave. Get into that power pose before the meeting and reassure yourself that you are doing what is best for your team and the overall company. You got this.

A Quick Guide to SEO for Non-Profits [infographic]

Non-profits are often a few years behind in their approach to marketing which is unfortunate for many reasons. Of course, it has always been difficult for non-profits to spend dollars on marketing efforts simply because their true passion is for every cent to go to the cause they endeavor to raise funds for year after year. This is a double-edged sword. While more dollars may go to the cause, they also lose out on potentially far more dollars due to their lack of basic functionality on the marketing side. One of these basics is SEO or the search engine optimization of their website. The bad thing – most non-profits have terrible SEO which keeps people from donating on their site. The good thing – this is a fairly simple and cheap fix many non-profits could do without any hired outside help. Check out the infographic below to see how you can improve your non-profit’s SEO in just a few simple steps.
