Clearing with the Tax Man!

It is said that there are only a few things in life that we HAVE to do in order to survive, ie; breathe, drink water and, er, well the third I won't mention here.... I would however like to add a fourth MUST DO for survival, or at least a MUST DO in order to not have sleepless nights, and that is to PAY THE TAX MAN!

So, I can confirm that I am in 'GOOD STANDING' with our local Receiver of Revenue!!

Recently a good client placed all business with me on hold until I could provide them with a Tax Clearance Certificate in my personal capacity since I operate as a Sole Proprietor, providing them with my services as a Voice Stress Analyst.

Promptly this Certificate was forwarded to my client- since my taxes are up to date, the Receiver was able to forward me this haloed piece of paper in no time at all!

And now it is again ' Business as Usual'!

End of 2011 is very near!

And so, we all begin our preparations to close off 2011.

It is usual at this time of the year that many companies discover they have not completed the last round of tests that would complete their Honesty Management Program for the year - and then require an appointment urgently!

As it is, my diary requires 3 working days'  notice, so while time is still our friend, make your appointment soon!

Your choice determines your journey!

I will remain available for appointments until December 15th 2011.

And will be available again in the new year from Monday 9th January 2012.

Launch of blog and new Logo is here!!!

At last! After many weeks of talking design, layout, colours etc. It is finally complete!!

I have a new Logo and with it I am launching my Voice Stress Blog!

So, welcome to all followers & readers, it is my intention to keep you abreast of developments in the Detection of Deception Industry, to make my services available at an affordable rate and provide reliable and accurate results.

A surprise bonus!

As and when they become available, software upgrades to AVSA Pro 1.8A, are given as per the license agreement. 

This week saw me racing to Midrand to meet my trainer and AVSA Pro distributor, Cliff Coetzee of POLY- VSA Institute of Training from Tulbach, Cape Province. It was just my luck that he was here in Gauteng for training of new examiners.

There were some processes of the system that were so advanced that I didn't know how to utilize them to their full potential - I wanted to understand and incorporate these features into my daily test processes - Selecting appropriate Protocol sets I would be able to archive results faster while not compromising on accuracy.

While there, to my surprise he informed me that an upgrade to certain other features has just become available and that he would install these there & then! The installation process and test-run took a few minutes, but once installed I was on my way home - over and done with in shorter time that it took to get to the B & B where he stayed and trained.

The upgraded features included cadence allotment - a very important factor allowing the homeostasis to return to normal before the next question is fired...
AND
quick, effective archiving of AVSA tests in the same sequence as the examinee details. AVSA now automatically saves these recordings and results without the examiner having to select where to file them - which is GREAT! The saving of the examinee detail determines the route of saving the sound files - very nifty!

So, I can proudly say that while accuracy and efficacy has always been a priority for me, I am now able to provide an even more fluent service to clients - they may not feel the difference in the service they receive BUT I certainly feel the difference in providing it!

Preparation to launch Blog...!

Wow! this is exciting and scary all at the same time!

I've brought in the assistance of a Brand Designer to help create my new logo, e-mail signature, newsletter and launch this Blog!

I'm proud of the development of my business and will continue to provide the same accurate, reliable and affordable service that I have done over the last 24 months.

I wish to thank the over 140 individual clients who have made use of my services to date - I hope you all find this Blog interesting and informative.
