Adding news was not one of the best ideas the financial picture, but the townspeople were hungry for any bits of local news that were available. 

The article asked them to contribute to the newspaper with their comments, happenings, and anything that might be of interest to our neighbors, so that we could all be more aware of what’s going on in our community.

The first writer was called by me, and even though he was not a reporter of current events, his writing entailed his experiences upon moving to our area of Alaska, and we got great feedback from these regular bits.

Miles of Alaska has gone on to become an artist, and a brilliant marketer of his wares on the world wide web, one the best small business ideas for your own business, as the “web” is highly cost effective in marketing.

As others saw that Miles was getting lots of attention, more people came on board with their contributions.

Appealing to local authors was one of the more excellent small business ideas during the ten years that the Nenana Messenger News existed.

Of the regular writers who contributed each week for years and years, one was a business expert, the other an excellent human interest writer, and three great purveyors of the faiths they believed in, sought me out and volunteered to contribute every week.

Karen Harvey’s human interest stories of our local people were fantastic.

Two local faith based leaders, Virginia Young and Tim Horn, taught all of us a little about the B’a Hai faith. The Minnema family with their strong faith based beliefs, taught us much about how they deal with everyday life, using their Christian ideals.

Awhile back, a few years ago, as an active board member of Nenana Valley Chamber of Commerce, and owner of one of mybest home businesses, my making money ideas revolved around bringing more business into our community, economic development.

We thought that using these small business ideas to promote more visitors touring our town, would benefit our businesses.

The various tour bus companies and independent travelers who arrived by highway would spend money at our shops, and everyone would be happy.

Then, one of our esteemed board members, one of the most creative, an artist with many small business ideas, brought up an idea from another viewpoint. This is what entrepreneur Miles Martin of Miles of Alaska had to say.

“In your own business, and most other businesses in this town, the idea is fine. But what about those people who moved here or who have lived here because there aren’t too many people, strangers, wandering around?

I’ve been to other meetings where people say they don’t want the town to grow. They like that we have a small town, no big box stores or busy streets.

They want their children to be able to walk to our one store without worrying about speeding cars running them down. They like the peace and quiet.”

That was the first time we’d gotten a point of view that opposed our ideas, and we all agreed with Miles, that before moving forward, we needed to meet with community members, and not just restrict our conversations to those who own businesses.

One savvy and creative business member, Miles Martin, took the time to seek out other people’s opinions on our small business ideas.

Miles may have saved a lot of hard feelings from the townspeople who don’t own their own business, or care that we may have had the best small business ideas around.

In your own business, it is wise to “Try honestly to see things from the others point of view,” as Dale Carnegie states in the chapter entitled “A Formula That Will Work Wonders For You” in his timeless book geared toward helping your own business, “How to Win Friends & Influence People”.

Showing the stylist the photos, and saying that a style with “attitude” was the “do” expected, we started.

She then suggested different ways to go and came up with her own version of the cut.

 That style lasted for several months. A new hair stylist was needed because the former stylist decided take her small

business ideas to a different level, specializing in manicures.

 

This technique worked so well, I hadn’t thought about using it in other situations since reading Dale Carnegie’s

“How to Win Friends and Influence People”, in the chapter “How to Get Cooperation”.
