Selling Is About Helping People
| |
| When you were a young child do you remember people asking you what you wanted to be when you grew up? Do you remember what you said? If you have your own children and ask them this same question, what will they say? The typical answer from an average kid is something like doctor, lawyer, teacher, policeman, fireman, and the like. What do these professions have in common? They all help people. A child might even say an athlete, who helps people by entertaining them. Or even an astronaut, who helps people by furthering the progress of mankind as a whole. Although in the latest news, I’m not sure that animal-abusing athletes and drunken astronauts are good role models these days, but I digress. |

Referral Network Marketing
| |
| Referral network marketing might be one of the most underrated marketing strategies in business right now. In an age with twitter and Google Adwords, slick commercial campaigns and YouTube being the norm, people often forget about word of mouth and a simple business card. Having something tangible in someone’s hands has been replaced by “hey, check out my site.” I’m not saying this is a bad thing, far from it, but don’t neglect one tool because the others look so new. Even astronauts carry a hammer (it’s a nice one that cost the taxpayers $25,000, but it’s still a hammer).
Referral network marketing is about branding yourself, branding your business, and having your current contacts make leads for you. In short, it’s about looking good enough that people will talk about you to others and spread the word about you and your service. In |

Become Your Problem
| |
| Mahatma Gandhi once said "You must become the change you seek in the world." I believe the same logic can be applied to solving problems. If you become your problem, you actually stand a better chance of solving it. As I watch the drama of the oil spill and clean up unfold, I am reminded that some problems are particularly nasty to resolve. One technique that often leads to helpful and creative insights is to personify the problem and try to analyze it as if you were the object. This is particularly helpful in team environments.
This technique was useful in the remarkable rescue of the Apollo 13 Astronauts. Once you attempt to act and feel like a stuck valve or an overheated radiator, you can elicit some highly creative solutions to challenging problems. The attached story is a cute reminder of this principle.
