Today Show Segment: New Business Model

http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/26184891/vp/45507186#null

As a small business owner whose personality is one of a volunteer vs. entrepreneur, I am glad to see that even the high powered, wealthy and once-upon-a-time capitalists offer an alternative, altruistic business model. Check out this video of Matt Lauer's interview with Richard Branson. Or, check out Mr. Branson's new book "Screw Business As Usual." I realize it's may be hard to believe that small business owners can be altruistic (because profit is so key to the bottom line), but I do believe that if one behaves in positive ways that help others, then profits will follow. Are you a business owner? What are your business methods and models? Are you someone who wants to try to own a business? You may also want to read this book, as well as "Don't Worry. Make Money" (see my previous post: Inspirational: Author: Must Read Books")
