baby Boomers - Five Reasons to Buy Vacation Property

2007-09-27T13:00:00.000-07:00

1. Value: Buy low Sell high! Sounds easy, right? So, why not take advantage of todays lower property values? Real estate values have dropped significantly making it more affordable for buyers. With the market being flourished with homes for sale, it is a great time to make offers to homes with great values. The same applies to vacation properties. The choice is yours.

2. Income: Buying a vacation property will give you the opportunity to generate cash flow which is something most retirees are looking for when they no longer have salaries.

3. Equity: While collecting rental income from your vacation property, your equity over time (historically proven) will continue to grow. That is of course, if you pay the right purchase price. Be careful not to over pay for your property. With today's prices, you may be able to get a real bargain.

4. Pleasure: Wouldnt it be fun to own a condo on a golf course so you could play golf every day? Or how about on your favorite beach so you and your friends can hang out at the pool all day? Maybe you like to fish in fresh water lakes and would like to own your very own cabin. Whatever your hobbies are, make sure you choose the location thats right for you! Imagine, having someone else pay your expenses while you get to use it whenever you choose.

5. Age: Now is the time to reflect and a time for planning. When can I retire? What can I do to create a cash flow to supplement my income when I retire? How do I maintain the life style I have become accustom? This could be a great time to purchase a vacation home, use it for several years and when the time is right, sell it for a profit. Thus, giving you a nice lump sum to add to your retirement fund. As with any financial matter, always talk to your financial advisor and/or tax consultant before making major decisions.

We all talk about what we would like to do when we retire. It can happen if you plan for it. Design your plan today and make your dream a reality.

Interior design school - What Is It All About

2007-09-26T23:47:00.000-07:00

The field of interior design is always changing. Not so long ago, you had to go to a formal design or art school in order to learn the field. Today students can attend almost any college or university and major in interior design.

Professional interior designers today must be licensed by the industry in order to practice their trade. Much like an architect, they must undergo intensive study and testing before even being allowed to take any licensing testing. The NCIDQ (National Council for Interior design Qualification), requires all testers to have a combination of six years of work experience, two years of schooling plus four years of work experience, or four years in a FIDER accredited university or college plus two years of work experience in order to qualify. This intensive procedure ensures that trade licensing helps to create responsible, educated designers.

At minimum, student designers should look for a college or university that is FIDER accredited and works towards a bachelor's degree required for commercial work. However, most high-end designers also obtain a masters degree or a doctorate in design. What type of classes should would-be designers consider? AutoCAD by AutoDesk, is an excellent computer aided drafting course. Those with some experience and knowledge of this software program can command a higher starting rate than those who havent taken the time to learn anything about it.

Business classes, as well as a variety of marketing courses are also a plus that many students dont consider. Interior design is 90% networking, marketing, selling, and knowing the right people; 7% paperwork and 3% design.

Some professional designers even suggest taking an acting class or two to help you learn how to make better sales pitches.

Art classes too can help you be better prepared when taking with clients. People are visual and youll have a better shot at convincing a new client of your ideas if you can sketch them. Also consider taking an art, furniture and antique history class. They all come in to play every day in the design industry.

design school can be very intense. Not only do you have traditional classes and a normal workload of reading, tests and other class work, but you will be expected to complete very large-scale design projects along the way also

One important aspect of your new career that design school can help make clear is what area of interior design you will find most successful and rewarding. Theyre many different fields to enter in the design profession. There are residential interior designers whose sole purpose is to serve homeowners, and there are commercial interior designers who work on offices, restaurants, banks, malls, hotels, and on and on. Within each of these specialties, you could be a project manager heading up the entire project or a draftsperson or even a product sales representative.

Some designers decide that theyd rather own or operate a drapery workroom or fabric warehouse, a design firm, be a partner in a firm, a painter, wallpaper hanger, carpet layer or any of a hundred other design specialists! How you ultimately use your designers education is really up to you, your interest, and your talent level.

Middle school Volleyball Drills

2007-09-25T21:20:00.000-07:00

Players of all Skill Levels are Welcome

By the time they reach middle school, some kids are beginning to get serious about their team sports, especially volleyball. However in order to incorporate players of all skill levels, try selecting drills that place their emphasis on fun and teamwork instead of rewarding the skilled and punishing or humiliating those players with less-developed skill sets. The following middle school volleyball drills are an excellent way for players of all skill levels to improve and work together towards helping others progress as well.

The Importance of a Good Serve

While serving is one of the most important skills in volleyball, drills that practice and improve your players serving skills are often left until the end of the practice. But when you think of it in terms that serving is the only time when a player has complete control over the ball, youll think twice before shoving serving practice until the last minutes of your practice.

The aspect of serving that most players have trouble with is accuracy. Therefore try including some drills that highlight serving accuracy at your next volleyball practice, and watch the points rake in at your next game as your players learn to serve with pin-point accuracy to the holes in the other teams defense.

When showing these middle school volleyball drills to your team, make sure to run them at half speed first to give players a chance to practice the movements before implementing them in the drill. Also encourage players to ask questions on anything they are unsure of before proceeding to avoid injury and embarrassment.

To set up this serving drill, place a chair on either side of the net in Area 1. Divide your team into 2 groups that stand on either side of the net. One player from each group sits in the opposing teams chair, opposite from their team mates. The play begins as the first player from each team attempts to serve the ball with enough precision that the player sitting in the chair can catch it easily.

If the player misses their serve, the ball goes to the next player in line. If the serve is successfully caught, the player who served the ball changes places with the person in the chair, and the new player moves the chair to Area 2. Continue play until each player has made a few serves and gotten to sit in the chair or until the chair has made a few rounds around the court. To up the competitive spirit of the game enforce a rule where if a player serves out of bounds or into the net all members of their team must run and touch the 10 foot line, the end line, and the center line before returning to their positions.

Get your Players in Tip Top Shape

The next of the middle school volleyball drills starts off by having 6 players on either side of the net. The coach throws a ball in from the side, and the players must play the ball like usual except that they may only tip the ball. Each time they tip the ball to the other side, they rotate one position.

Make sure they successfully execute 2 tips before tipping the ball over to the other side. This drill is a fast-paced way to get players moving, which means it is a great warm-up drill before games.

Finding Suitable Gifts

2007-09-24T19:04:00.000-07:00

It seems that every week someone you know is celebrating a birthday, wedding, christening, birth or some form of special occasion and to mark this occasion you are faced with finding a suitable gift idea.

Finding the right gift is not always as simple as you may at first think, more often than not you find out the receiver already has the gift you had in mind or they are one of those people that simply has everything, making finding a gift that is thoughtful and unique seem impossible.

When looking for gifts it is important to find something that fits the occasion, there is no point buying a mum to be a bottle of wine when she can not drink it. If the gift you are looking for is for a wedding then you may want to consider offering to pay for a certain aspect of the day rather than purchasing an actual gift. Offer to pay for the wedding stationary or a night in the hotel after the event.

One sure way to make any gift personal is to have it personalized with the name of the receiver and the date if appropriate. By adding the babies name to its blanket will not only be beautiful to look at but will show that you have made a concerted effort when choosing your gift.

When it comes to giving and receiving gifts the money spent should not be a major factor. Most handmade gifts are considerably lower in cost yet the receiver will appreciate this more knowing you have given up your time to create something just for them.

Flowers are a great gift to give when you are stuck for ideas because they can be given for any occasion including birthdays, sympathy, and new baby and because there is so many different flowers with different meanings by receiving appropriate flowers on your special day can say so much.

These days the season does not affect the flowers available in stores, you will be able to find a huge variety of flowers in all shapes and sizes even in the winter months. Always ask around to find a recommended florist and make sure you understand the delivery times and are happy with how the flowers will be packaged and delivered.

One of the great things about gifts is that you no longer need to go into town and search around endless shops looking for something suitable, the internet can provide you with gift ideas for every occasion and you can search around for the perfect gift in the comfort of your own home. The only disadvantage of shopping online is that you do not actually get to touch or see the gift up close so it is always wise to make sure there is a suitable returns policy should you not be happy with the quality of the gift when it arrives.

2007-09-23T18:41:00.000-07:00

Are you looking for a less that politically correct talk radio. One in which no subject is off limits? One, which dives into phenomena, challenges the scientists, academic theories and is not afraid to debunk or confirm conspiracy theories? How about a radio show, which discusses weather control, Bird Flu, oil price manipulation, secret military projects, mythology, Earth cycles and even ghosts?

Well, radio listening fans there is such a show on the radio and it is Coast-to-Coast Am with radio legends George Noory and on the weekend Art Bell. Two gentleman un-afraid of the dark willing to go our on a limb and talk about the coming super storms, volcanic SuperPlumes, UFOs, human mind control and ancient civilizations, cultures and customs.

Indeed this radio show is called Coast to Coast by it is really a Seven Seas and five continent endeavor with listeners literally around the globe and it is not uncommon for callers to call in from Singapore, Japan, Australia or Guam. Coast to Coast has 13 million listeners with open minds willing to discuss Gods, Religion, Aliens, Agnostic Beliefs and even friendly witches.

It is a show that makes you think. Some of the shows are quite scary indeed as callers often call in with stories of seeing the light and near death experiences or getting messages from beyond the grave. In fact the Coast to Coast Halloween Special does just that and more as they listen to ghost chasers and real ghost stories tell their tales.

The show often hosts prominent scientists, meteorologists, archeologists, climatologists and more. They have storm chasers, ghost busters, ancient history explorers and future predictors. The have Shamans, psychics, dream interpreters, occult experts and collective consciousness researchers. Not a week goes by with the interview of a famous author in any one of several hundred interesting, fascinating and sometimes horrific subject matters.

All the cool people listen to Coast to Coast Am, ask your friends about, they will tell you. It is even on XM radio on the Ask station and with affiliates around the globe, you can find them on your radio dial. But beware, there are subjects that can be quite frightful along with the scientific discovery discussions about every possible subject known to mankind. On Coast to Coast they hear you loud and clear. Think on this and thanks for listening.

Bathroom Decorating

2007-09-23T18:38:00.000-07:00

1.The first suggestion for small bathroom areas is to add glass shelving across the windows. This is relatively easy to do, and these shelves are a great place for bright-colored glass items or other interesting collections. In most bathrooms the window's only serves as something to be covered up, so rather than purchase window treatments, us these glass shelves filled with decorative items as a replacement for window treatments, as they will not only limit the view, but they will also increase the style and dcor of the room.

2.Look for proper art for your bathroom. The bathroom is not the right place in a house for your family photos, as much as you love your son, daughter, or parent, you don't really want their happy smiling face staring down at you while you are sitting on the pot, so rather, take this as an opportunity to enhance your cultural side, and you artwork to enhance your bathroom. Many feel that they can't hang any sort of artwork in the bathroom because it will be ruined by the moisture, this may be the case in some instances, but if you get it properly framed, and hang it in a well ventilated place, it is a great option. Before hanging any artwork in your bathroom, determine the quality of the ventilation. Don't hang signed lithographs, originals or anything irreplaceable if moisture collects on the walls after you shower or bathe. Paintings on canvas perform the best in bathrooms. Canvas may sag when exposed to moisture, but will tighten as it dries. However, if you are worried about paintings etc. being ruined, opt for other forms of art such as sculptures, and ceramics or glass

3.One of the best tools for bathroom decorating is plants. If you want to be considered a good decorator then think like one. if you place a houseplant and folded or rolled stacks of towels by the tub it will break up the lines of the bath, and add stylistic elements to the room without a lot of work. If you are on a tight decorating budget, or are just struggling with the bathroom, it is always safe to add a variety of houseplants to your bathroom. However, try to select plants that grow well in humid environments and that will do well in the type of lighting you have in your bathroom. If you are not sure, ask a local expert at a nursey.

4.Think simple, but beautiful. You can really dress up your bathroom by simply adding wall sconce on either side of your mirror, or using a framed mirror rather than one that is free. There are several small things you can do, such as using a fancy or decorative tie back for the shower curtain. The dcor you use can be functional as well as pleasing.

5.Last but not least, make sure that you utilize what you have. For example, if you keep q-tips in your bathroom, then find a decorative canister to hold them, and pair that canister with some art or a framed quote, etc. Think style aligned with function. Group smaller art, or phrases, or photos vertically in those small spaces of wall you have to work with. Use decorative shelving lined with canisters that hold your bathroom essentials, and never let yourself think that because it is a bathroom it can't be stylish.

Call Accounting Software Benefits

2007-09-21T14:44:00.000-07:00

Call accounting is software or hardware that provides metrics for telephony functions such as traffic analysis, toll fraud alerts, network management, E911 notification and cost allocation to various corporate levels.

Historically the software has been an invaluable tool for corporations that required control over telephone usage costs. Call accounting systems generally capture and report on call type, origin, date, time, duration and dialed digits. The system stores the data and utilizes the information to calculate cost and generate desired reports.

Call accounting can generally reduce telecom expenses from 10% to 40% by highlighting misuse and abuse, discovering supplier billing errors and increasing productivity through greater network and workforce efficiency.

Environments that are not monitored tend to have excessive charges for directory services, specialty numbers, personal and overseas calls. The implementation of a call accounting system can pinpoint calls to individual extensions for greater accountability. In fact, simple awareness of the impending installation of a new call accounting package circulated among staff curbs misuse immediately by approximately 10%.

Supplier billing errors can be a costly revelation. A Gartner Group study found 12 to 20 percent of corporate telecom invoices contain billing errors and 85 percent of such errors are in favor of the carrier. A good call accounting system can provide accounting assurance through bill reconciliation.

In this era of heightened security, it is imperative that a call accounting software package monitor suspicious, fraudulent and malicious behavior. Calls to E911, emergency services or to specific calling patterns can be tracked and notified to authorized personnel. In 2002, the United States Congress passed the Sarbanes-Oxley Act following fraudulent operations by companies, such as Enron and WorldCom. Call detail reports can be used to provide documented proof of fraudulent behavior.

Over the years call accounting has evolved from a single processor MS DOS system to elaborate SQL databases with globally accessible browser-based solutions. Web browsers are either pre-installed with the operating system or freely available downloads from the internet. Browsers are popular because they can access information remotely from a public IP address or via a virtual private network (VPN). Therefore an individual can access his stock quotes, read the latest headlines and review call accounting reports through various tabs on the browser. Web browser based systems allow enterprise users to easily manage many sites from a centralized location.

Many corporations are developing total communication management solution (TCMS) strategies to manage their growing communication spend. Call accounting is the core of any powerful communication management portfolio.

Microsoft Moves to Small Business Accounting/retail Market - Stakes and Thoughts

2007-09-21T14:41:00.000-07:00

In this small article we will be looking at the new opportunities for Microsoft Small Business Server specialists, but rather look at the global business strategy and possible ways of future ERP modules standardizing and interoperability. This is important to get into consideration for midsize and large corporate business IT decision makers. Lets look at the chronology and possible future development.

Great Plains Software acquisition. When Microsoft took leading position on the operating system market and released stable and reliable Windows 2000 Server, the next logical step would be getting into ERP market. Microsoft decided to try midsize market, and the reason is probably this it is wise to create small accounting as the extension to Microsoft Office, not to purchase existing small application. However if you plan to try midmarket you better purchase something established with broad client base. Developing midsize package from scratch might deplete all the resources. As the stake on Great Plains was high Microsoft formed business systems subdivision Microsoft Great Plains Business Solutions, later on Great Plains name was taken off and now we see Microsoft Business Solutions.

Navision Software Acquisition. There are multiple opinions among the MBS partners. Considering the fact that Navision Attain had strong clientele in Europe, and the fact that currently MBS promotes Navision on the majority of emerging markets: East Europe, Russia, Brazil the point of view that Microsoft got very large pool of clients in Europe and one of the goals of Navision acquisition was geographic expansion.

Axapta. Navision Software was indeed very robust and it was one of the Danish software dragons (in the good sense of this word), the other nice company was MacHanza. We would like here to credit Danish ERP vendors. Axapta was new product on the moment of acquisition and it is rich-functionality ERP and so a rival to SAP, Oracle Financials, PeopleSoft

Small Business Manager/Small Business Financials. This was natural way of downsizing the functionality of Great Plains Dynamics/Microsoft Great Plains to gain small business market. Small Business Financials is Great Plains Dexterity written accounting package. You see similar marketing moves from SAP and Oracle sides.

Small Business Accounting 2006. It took Microsoft about four years to feel itself comfortable on the ERP market before it decided to create its own small business package, targeted to take over market share from QuickBooks, MYOB, PeachTree. Small Business Accounting 2006 is really nice application, which is excellently integrated with Microsoft Office/Microsoft Outlook. Microsoft is right majority of Windows users spend their computer time in Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Excel. And it create accounting application, allowing you to do 50% of work from Microsoft Outlook directly

Microsoft POS. As you know that there are several thousand small retail businesses in the USA, using just one cash register and these folks have to use a lot of small retail Management applications, which are competing on this market for a long time. And it is a good momentum to take over this unreliable and turbulent market offering cheap and solid rock solution, working with POS devises. Please, take into account that Microsoft has another high-end retail Management system Microsoft RMS, which can automate midsize and huge retail stores and chains.

Market is taken over? Well the last flint of Microsoft Small Business Accounting and Microsoft POS give customer an option to stay in Microsoft framework from the company inception till going public as a large corporation. This fact would be very difficult to ignore for such folks out there on the market as BestSoftware, SAP, Oracle, Sun.

Andrew Karasev is Chief Technology Officer in Alba Spectrum Technologies ( http://www.albaspectrum.com ) USA nationwide Great Plains, Navision, Axapta, Microsoft CRM customization company, serving clients in the following industries: Aerospace & Defence, Logistics & Distribution, Freight forwarding & Transportation, Pharmaceutical, Manufacturing, Wholesale & retail, Education, Biotechnology, Chemicals, Healthcare, Beverages, Conglomerates, Food & Drugs.

A California Lawyer May Be Needed If You Are Actively Pursuing An acting Career

2007-09-14T18:08:00.000-07:00

If you have ever wished to pursue an acting career in the state of California, you may need the services of a California lawyer. One should always retain a California lawyer that they can call if needed for any reason whatsoever.

An acting career is a difficult career to pursue, and you do not need the additional stress and worry that comes with contracts, missed deadlines and maybe even sexual harassment.

If you have retained the services of a California lawyer, then you can let him or her handle these cases that you have had no experience in handling.

For instance, if you are given a small part in a play or movie, you will most likely have a contract that you must sign. If you do not follow your contract completely as it is stipulated, then you may forfeit any rights you have to earned income. This means that if you do not abide by the contract, then you won't get paid, and you may even get sued.

A California lawyer can look over your contract and make sure that you understand everything that is involved with the job that you are considering. This will help to prevent misunderstandings so that you can accept a job knowing everything that is expected of you. If you have been told one thing in an interview or audition, yet if it's stipulated differently in your contract, then the contract is what carries the final word in the matter.

If you audition for a job that states it will pay $100.00 per day to extras, yet your contract states that you will only be paid $75.00, then you are only entitled to the $75.00 payment rate. It doesn't matter what was verbally insinuated at an audition. When you sign a contract, you are agreeing to the rate of $75.00 per day and nothing more.

Contracts can be hard to fully understand sometimes and a competent California lawyer will be able to go over it with you and explain exactly how much you get paid, the hours you are required to work and the tasks that you are expected to perform in the movie or play.

Another instance where a lawyer could be useful is if the production company was looking to hire for roles that may involve nudity of violence. Sometimes these types of scenarios are not covered fully at the interviews or auditions. A California lawyer can ensure that your contract states that no nudity or portrayal of violence is required on your part if you are uncomfortable with these sorts of roles. If your contract stipulates that your role will involve these types scenarios, then a California lawyer can point these things out to you before you commit to the job.

In cases when a production company doesn't follow through concerning their part of a contract, a California lawyer can represent you to ensure that you are not treated unfairly. If the production company is slow about making payments, then a California lawyer can pressure the company to uphold their end of the contract in a speedily manner. If the production company still delays in paying, then a California lawyer can file suit to acquire your rightfully deserved earnings.

There are many types of situations when one may need the assistance of a California lawyer if they are pursuing an acting career in California. In most cases, these circumstances will require the California lawyer to work just a few hours. The chance of needing a California lawyer for court cases is practically non-existent. By retaining the services of a California lawyer, you will be able to focus on your career exclusively without the legal worries that may arise when contracts are involved.

Seven Tips for Vacation rental Homeowners

2007-09-13T16:22:00.000-07:00

Tip 1:
Check your blankets, pillows, towels and linens. Is it time to replace the sheets, bath towels and dish towels? If so, throw out the "tired" ones and replace them with soft and "fluffy" towels. As for sheets, better quality usually means longer use. Check the pillows for yellowing and stains. Yellowed or stained pillows could indicate bacteria and should be replaced. Be sure to clean the blankets often and leave extra blankets and pillows, linens and towels for your guests to use if needed.

Tip 2:
Take a walk around your property to see if it needs any painting. Try new colors to give it a special uplift! You and your guests will enjoy the newness of freshly painted rooms. And, don't forget the outside. Check for peeling paint and rotted wood. It is always good to take care of our property, not just for today's enjoyment but for future value as well.

Tip 3:
Create new business cards for your rental property. Hand them out to everyone you come in contact with. For friends and relatives, ask them if they would be kind enough to give them out to their friends and business contacts. Give out referral fees to encourage bookings.

Tip 4:
When screening your renters, find out if they will be celebrating a special occasion during their stay at your vacation home. If so, write it down on your calendar as a reminder for when they arrive. Upon arrival, have a bottle of champagne waiting for anniversaries, a candy or fruit basket for a birthday or free tickets to a local fair for any celebration. These are just suggestions, but my point is, be thoughtful and kind to your renters and they will become repeaters year after year. If you have repeat renters each year, you will save your time and money trying to get a different party to rent your vacation home. My advice is to keep your renters happy! Good luck!

Tip 5:
Try creating an online property listing. If you have one already, try giving it a face-lift.

Tip 6:
Before your guests arrive, check your notes to see if they are bringing along any children. Find out their ages and look for pamphlets in your area for that age group. Leave the appropriate ones out on your counter with a friendly note saying: "Here are some fun things to do in the area. Enjoy Your Stay!" and sign your name as owner. Your guests will not only appreciate having the pamphlets but will also remember how you took a personal interest in them to do such a nice thing. And, they will go home and talk about you and your vacation rental to their family and friends. This is a great way to get repeat guests and referrals.

Tip 7:
Take time to go through your rental properties to make sure everything is working correctly. Check batteries: smoke detectors, clock. radio, flashlights, hand held remotes (tv, dvd player, play station etc.) Check kitchen appliances to make sure they are all in good working order.

Three Cheers for Cheerleading

2007-09-12T16:43:00.000-07:00

Cheerleading has been growing in popularity ever since undergraduate Johnny Campbell stood up at a football game and yelled Rah, Rah, Rah one day in 1898. It has gained a lot of recognition and respect since its humble beginnings.

Cheerleading has many fascinating qualities. Being a cheerleader shows leadership abilities and positive attitudes. It is a great way to build self confidence. Cheerleaders work together as a team with no particular person standing out. The whole team works together to create the impression they give others.

Cheerleaders uses their cheers and chants combined with routines to reach out and grab the crowds attention. They can take a boring game with little excitement and make it interesting and fun. They can add to the enthusiasm of a great game. Everyone expects cheerleaders to be on the sidelines of their favorite sport.

The use of gymnastics plays an important role in cheerleading. Combine this with song and dance and you have everyones attention. At times cheerleading has been considered a dangerous activity, even though when compared to sports like football and basketball; far fewer injuries have been recorded. With all the safety guidelines that are in place today cheerleading has been able to overcome these worries.

Every cheerleading squad has a signature cheer that is specifically for their team. This is a tradition that will probably last as long as cheerleading itself will be with us. Most of the time it includes the name of the school or organization that the team is affiliated with.

All-star or competitive cheerleading can consist of a small or large group of men and women performing their best stunts and routines. They only have a few minutes to perform but what they can accomplish in that time can be quite amazing. Cheerleading is an exciting and fascinating profession.

Janey Trishon is a writer, and a huge cheerleading fan. Her new book, Cheerleading Secrets, explores all aspects of the sport - from how to get started through to turning professional - and everything inbetween.

Tips on Songwriting

2007-09-11T18:54:00.000-07:00

Tips on Songwriting

Step #1 - THE THEME

Try and say something in a new or original way. Instead of saying "I want you back", Toni Braxton said, "Unbreak My Heart". Instead of saying "I love you", Ne-Yo's song "When You're Mad" explains how he loves her even when she's mad.

This is a very simple difference but it can be the difference between a tired subject or a fresh angle on a common theme.

Theme's that usually work best are those that engage the emotion of the listener, the reason "love and relationships" is so popular in musicis because most people think about those subjects a lot, and understandably like to listen to musicthat communicates their inner fears/hope/experiences on those subjects.

Step #2 - THE TITLE

A good title should be instantly memorable, it should put a picture in your mind of an event or situation and it should lend itself to a catchy melody, or one that's suitable for your musicstyle.

A good title will naturally lend itself to a catchy hook, finding that title can be hard, especially when so many songs have been released over the decades ... how can you find a new one?!

One way is to keep your "antenna up". Be aware of what people are saying around you and if you are writing for a teen market, take a look at teen magazines, if it's urban you want then check out urban mags. Words and phrases are everywhere ... you just need to pick up on them when they come!

Finding a title that paints a picture all on it's own is also very important because it will create a deeper connection with the listener. The best songs create images in the listeners mind or evoke an emotion, your title will help achieve this.

Elton John's "Sorry seems to be the hardest word" instantly evokes an emotion that can be identified by all of us ... a time where we have experienced how hard it can be to say sorry even though we know we should!

Step #3 - THE LYRICS

A good lyric paints a picture, it says things in a new and unique way whilst dealing with topics that most of us can relate to.

Country musicoften has fantastic lyric writing. One clever technique is to create a story that suddenly flips and means something completely different the moment you hit the chorus. This is just one technique for engaging the listener, or keeping them on their toes.

Another is to word things in a new way, like the song we mentioned earlier "Un-break My Heart". Keep the chorus lyrics the same so as it remains easy to remember. You could also keep the pre chorus, or bridges the same too.

Avoid too many words such as "Love, Baby, Girl etc". If used too often they can sound shallow and cheesy. Keep your rhyme patterns equal and intuitive. Too many rhyming words can be off putting. For example:

"Looking at you, I see the truth, baby it's true, there's only you"

This sentence is smothered in rhymes and sounds clumsy.

The following would work better:

"Looking at you, the truth I see, there's no one else, you're all I need"

If using this rhyme pattern with the second and fourth lines rhyming, you should keep the same pattern in verse 2 so that your song lyric has a continuity throughout.

Another popular rhyme pattern is to match the 2nd and 4th lines, along with the 1st and 3rd lines:

"Read my mind, and you will know, the love inside, will never go"

A good place to start your lyric writing is to scribble down lots of words and phrases that are relevant to your song theme. Use this as a kind of pallet from which you can draw ideas from at a later date.

For example, if my theme was about feeling like a star, I might start by writing everything that comes to mind about being famous or rich ...

celebrity, fame, money, limousine, jewelry, car on cruise, back at the pool, diamond, gucci etc etc.

Anything at all to get brainstorming. These can then be mixed up and called upon when you are forming your lyrics, just like you would use colours when painting a picture.

A good tool to use is a rhyming dictionary. There are many good ones on line and can be found via search engines.

Step #4 - THE VOCAL MELODY

The vocal melody is extremely important as this is usually what the listener will remember and hum whilst in the shower!

The idea is to create depth and interest whilst keeping the melody simple enough that most people can sing along to it.

The hook must be 'catchy' or 'memorable'. Take Elton Johns song "Sorry Seems to be the Hardest Word". Now if you know this song you will understand that just to read those words is enough to 'hear' Elton's vocal melody in your mind.

The vocal melody is simple and catchy enough to be memorable without needing to hear any music... now that's catchy!

Always add colour: By this I mean create more than what is already there. If there is a D Major chord being played, try singing a note other than those in a D Major chord.

If the musichas long chords, sing with a faster rhythm. If the chords are played low, try singing an octave higher to add more colour.

This technique of adding colour can be applied with the melody itself. For example, if the verse has long vocal notes, try switching it in the bridge to short rhythmic notes and change again for the chorus. Apply the principle of adding colour to your musicand vocals to create a richer and more interesting melody.

Always ask yourself honestly, "do I lose interest at a certain point in this song?". If you do, rework the melody to give the listener something to keep their interest.

Step #5 - THE ARRANGEMENT

A lot of otherwise good songs are ruined by poor arrangement. In fact it can be the one area that is neglected and considered not important.

A good arrangement is very important and is more complex that one may first think.

You may want to have a standard three and a half minute song, and you'd be wise in doing so seeing as most hit songs run at this length ( Maybe it's the optimum length for a human brain to absorb information without getting bored?!)

let's assume your going for a three and a half minute song, that doesn't give you much time to squeeze everything in, and in what order should you place things? What good ideas should you leave out? These are tough questions and ultimately come under one heading "The Arrangement".

The average song will have the following arrangement (although this is only a guide):

Up tempo Song

Intro
Verse 1
Bridge
Chorus
Verse 2
Bridge
Chorus
Chorus
Middle 8
Chorus
Chorus

Slow Song

Intro
Verse 1
Bridge
Chorus
Verse 2
Chorus
Middle 8
Chorus
Chorus

Quick Tips:
*Don't make the intro too long, stick to 8 or 16 bars.
*Listen back to your song from the beginning and ask yourself if it flows naturally, or if there are sections that lose energy/interest.
*Get to the hook/chorus quickly to 'grab' the listener.

Step #6 - THE PRODUCTION

In some R&B and Pop songs the production has in some cases taken over in importance to the vocal melody. This is not surprising if you have been in a night club and experienced certain songs and the power of the production.

Times have changed, especially in R&B and Hip Hop. It is no good to send a demo to a label saying, "please imagine this with proper production", because the production is 50% of the song.

That is almost like saying "here's a great piece of music, please imagine it with a good chorus"!

The production is more than putting the right effects on the instruments and balancing them out, it is the overall mood of the track and determines how professional it ends up sounding.

Odd sounds that seem irrelevant to many people like for example, a vocal breath, can transform a song if used in the right context. A song that would go unnoticed can suddenly inspire interest if the right sound is used correctly ... A named 'super producer' commented that non tonal sounds, like hitting a table or ashtray can add a great deal of interest and energy to a song.

Most people will hear a song and make a judgment as to whether they like it within seconds based on the overall sound. They may get to love the song but unless the production is inviting they may never listen to it twice.

The biggest mistake people make is to present a song with a list of excuses. The plain truth is that a song is a combination of sounds and the listener will hear them all as one and no excuse will change their first experience of the song or how they emotionally respond. Get the production right!
