Confused asks Alphonzo:
What do I need to do to improve my business?
Alphonzo Alphonzo answers:
I notice you didn't say what business you're in. That's the first rule, you gotta notice things like that. That's why I'm good at business. It don't do much good having a business if you don't tell people what business you're in. That's why you're not good in business. You could've got a little free advertising just now, like "How can I improve my business selling stuffed armadillos, call 1-800-555-234." Unless you're ashamed of it. I had some businesses that I didn't want to tell anyone about.

Beyond that, all you need is a good suit, and don't make your business cards on the Xerox machine.
