Whatever Happened to “You’re Welcome?”
| |
| I remember a time – in the not-so-distant past – when people actually said, “You’re welcome” when thanked for a gift, fulfilling a request or performing another activity.
Now, it’s “Sure,” “No problem” or worse yet, “No prob,” or “You bet!” |

Never say "no comment" to the media
| |
| For those who understand the value and the power of the media, 'no comment’ is never an acceptable response. In fact, in most cases, it is the audio equivalent of getting your company logo, smearing it in mud and placing in the middle of your nearest city for all to see. |

First Call --- Last Look
| |
| A former colleague of mind was fond of quoting what he considered "less competent" sales people who claim--- "My customers don't give last looks."
His response; "Well, that just means someone else is getting it - Batman!"
I really love that quote. Unfortunately it doesn't go far enough. The real question is what do you do when you get last look? Do you automatically match the low price? Unfortunately, that is the first response of most sales people. In fact, it is often the first response of many managers.
The real test is how you maintain the business at a price that is profitable, acceptable and meets your margin objectives. Can you sell the customer at a higher price when he has a lower priced quote staring him in the face? |

E-Mail Marketing Suppliers, can you do this?
| |
| Either through a customer or utilizing the services I have used most of the most popular E-mail providers. My list includes Constant Contact, Vertical Response, IContact, Get Response and decent knowledge of several drip marketing programs such as Infusion and Swiftpage. I have limited knowledge with other auto-responders but have dabbled with a few. My question to them is with all the data available why am I so limited in being able to manipulate it and segment it? |

The other side of social media: business networking
| |
| With social media comes a whole new way of connecting with others. As our friend list builds on Facebook, we realise that that keeping a relationship adrift with the written word is now a perfectly acceptable and viable alternative to meeting for coffee or picking up the telephone. Posting on somebody’s wall or replying to their blog post is just as acceptable as a teleconference call. In fact, we may have contacts that we have never even met or that we have never heard speak, but are as valuable an acquaintance as others whom we’ve known for years – especially when it comes to the business world. Social media is leaving the MySpace era of tweens and teens behind, and is now a perfectly acceptable mode of business networking. |

Outdoor Billboards - How to Overcome the Money Complaint from a Potential Landowner
| |
| Periodically, you will come across the landowner of a potential outdoor billboard location that throws up an unusual response: “it’s not enough money”. But not in the “I want more money” argument. That’s just a part of negotiation. Instead, the argument is “I don’t mess with anything that pays such little money, so get out of my office”. You can get this response even when the amount you offered is quite large, like $1,000 per month. |

Live the Question
| |
| We have a culture of impatience and a need for answers and complete certainty. If we aren't satisfied with the response we get when we ask the question, we tend to seek out other experts to provide us with an answer which is more acceptable. Why are we so uncomfortable with just staying with the question? Often, living the question has more value than rushing to answers. |
