GET,LLC-HUBZone Certified by U.S.SBA

The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) has advised GET, LLC that it is now Certified in the Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone) Program.  The news comes after GET, LLC completed the extensive certification process that began back in August of 2013.

"GET, LLC is excited to be a part of the HUBZone Program," said GET, LLC Managing Partner Tricia J.S. Gumataotao.  "We join 181 companies in Guam who are participating in this program and proud of the fact that we are the 75th Women Owned Business in Guam to take this important step in growing our business."

The Historically Underutilized Business Zones (HUBZone) program was enacted into law as part of the Small Business Reauthorization Act of 1997.  The program falls under the auspices of the U.S. Small Business Administration. The program encourages economic development in historically underutilized business zones - "HUBZones" - through the establishment of preferences.  SBA's HUBZone program is in line with the efforts of both the Administration and Congress to promote economic development and employment growth in distressed areas by providing access to more federal contracting opportunities.

"The program’s benefits for HUBZone-certified companies like GET, LLC include competitive and sole source contracting, a 10% price evaluation preference in full and open contract competitions, and subcontracting opportunities," said Gumataotao.

GET, LLC serves both federal and local government agencies and commercial businesses of Guam and the Western Pacific in business-to-business consulting services and construction materials and equipment sales.

An Ambit Energy National Consultant Shares Four Success Habits to Adopt

Ambit Energy National Consultant Carlos Marin has been so generous with his knowledge and his advice has been so spot on.  This week, Marin pushed GET, LLC and other consultants to think about a new normal in our businesses: success habits.

Marin said, "Highly successful people have a way of standing apart from the rest. They take risks, think BIG, and have good habits. Here are four success habits you can adopt and implement today:

1) Get organized: Keep a calendar, meet deadlines, remember birthdays, and plan ahead.

2) Be independent: Team work is great, but being an entrepreneur means being a self-starter. Do what you can, where you're at, with what you have. Take action. Be confident in your own abilities without the need for hand-holding.

3) Ask Questions: Know when to ask for help on goals, expectations, or duties. Not sure about something? Get clarity.

4) Communicate:  The highly successful person is straightforward. Not only does he ask questions, but he also shares his goals and any useful advice he has in order to create an environment in which everyone can benefit.

There are many more we could add to the list, - and so could you. Remember, if you want to be an efficient, on-time, organized, and highly successful person you must master the small things you do each day. Success is not represented by dollars alone. How we FEEL about ourselves is what makes us prosperous. Today, make it a point to implement these 4 habits and be the BEST you can be!"

Being the best we can be is the point.  With that said, find out how to turn on the cash flow whenever someone uses electricity and gas at http://getllc.myambit.com/start-a-business/energy-526.

An Ambit Energy National Consultant Ask Us All to "Find Inspiration"

Ambit Energy National Consultant Carlos Marin asks an important question of GET, LLC and other consultants, where do we find inspiration in all we do?

Marin said, " It's a new season... the days are getting longer and the weather is heating up. It's time to find some new inspiration in your life... and in your business!

Read a motivational quote, listen to a song that moves you, watch a clip from a movie that inspires you to be more, do more, and have more in your life! Don't succumb to the negativity which is widespread in the news and in our culture.

Write down some positive affirmations, get focused, and set your intentions for the week. Start this week off with the full intent of helping your business partners, and those you love and care about.

YOU are entirely up to you! Make your body, make your life, make yourself. Create your own legacy by taking action NOW and living out the life you truly desire.

Life is yours for the taking. Go get it!"

There is no question that we all should take some time out and reflect on this important aspect of our respective businesses.

Moving Forward-An Ambit Energy "Nudge"

Ambit Energy National Consultant Carlos Marin continues to try to guide GET LLC and other consultants in pushing our respective businesses forward.  This week he struck a cord with Trish and I:

"...Many of you may still be feeling disappointed because you haven't hit your goals for the week. We were reading an article earlier today and a quote really stood out. The author, Beverly Sills said, 'You may be disappointed if you fail, but you are doomed if you don't try.'

We tell you, it's not too late. You are still in time to make BIG things happen, but it's up to you to make it rain! Most of us give up right before we reach the grand prize. So, rather than going to Happy Hour or escaping as we're accustomed to doing, GO MAKE BIG THINGS HAPPEN!

Empower yourself and make the choices you know will fulfill you and advance you toward your dreams and desires. ~ 'If it is to be, it's up to me'".

Ambit Energy is ranked #14 on the list of top 100 direct selling companies in the world and is the largest energy company on the list!

Ambit National Consultant Reminds Us to "Connect with Your Purpose"

National Consultant for Ambit Energy Carlos Marin was spot on this week telling GET, LLC and other consultants this past weekend that the most important thing you can know is what's important to YOU. 

Marin said, "Your purpose in life is to find your purpose and give yourself to it. This purpose we speak of is really your 'why'. What motivates you? What change do you wish to see in the world? How can you make the life experience for yourself and those you love more meaningful and pleasant?

When you find your passion in life and are motivated by internal drivers rather than external drivers the results you seek in your life will begin to manifest. 

Get focused, get disciplined, and work with the purpose that truly connects you to who you are.

Use this passion and motivation to grow your business and help others do the same. Remain positive, forget about any past failures - and start fresh today."

Thanks Carlos for those words.  Remember- Find out how to turn on the cash flow whenever someone uses electricity and gas at http://getllc.myambit.com/start-a-business/energy-526.
