Why Feature-Selling Fails
| |
| When customers buy your product or service, what exactly are they buying? Are they buying the features that you offer, or are they buying something else, something you may never have mentioned in any of your marketing and advertising material? |

Practice make perfect when learning how to make cold calls.
| |
| I am good at making cold calls. I am so good that I stopped buying leads and started calling from the phone book. I made more sales cold calling the phone book than the leads I paid my hard earned dollars for. My dollars were hard earned at that time.
I equate cold calling from the phone book with cold calling door to door. Nevertheless, I reached a point in my development that I enjoyed cold calling the phone book. I had a technique and a script that worked. There was one huge problem with this system and yes it was a system. It was not duplicatible.

Turning A 'No' Into A 'Yes'
| |
| I recently experienced a very clear example of Buying Facilitation®, when i used it to turn a failed buying situation into a purchase.
I tell a shortened version of this story in my new book, Dirty Little Secrets; it bears repeating during this economic confusion when buyers are having difficulty getting to ‘yes’.
I was at a client site running a Buying Facilitation® training. A part of the training includes real-time calls to clients prospects. In this situation, my client had requested that the team listen to me on a call first, so they could hear what BF actually sounded like real-time. They set up a phone meeting between me and a prospect who had called recently to say “Sorry. We won’t be purchasing your product,” after one year of 3 sales visits and 3 product trials. |

Buying a Franchise: how to choose the right franchise
| |
| The Franchising World asked Rod Young, one of the world’s leading franchise consultants for his advice on buying a franchise. His advice has guided many franchise networks in establishing successful franchise ventures across the globe.
Buying and operating a franchise is an exciting and adventurous process. For most people, buying a franchise will be the most significant investment they make in their lifetime, akin with buying their first home. Imagine buying a house without looking in every room, getting a surveyors report or researching the value of similar houses in the area. At least the same level of due diligence should be undertaken when buying a business, even if it is part of a successful franchise network. |

Authors: Rename Your Book For Another Crack At Success
| |
| There are several reasons to rename a book such as adding a subtitle to be friendlier to search engines. Another important reason is to get a new copyright date because many book critics will not review an old book and reviewers often define an “old” book as one with a copyright of more than a year old. |

A review of the book, Pitch Anything, by Oren Klaff
| |
| As President of the B2B demand generation company, Find New Customers, and a prolific blogger, I’m often invited to do book review. But after doing quite a few, one grows jaded a bit – so we ask tough questions.
The two questions I ask every time I do a book review:
Does the book bring fresh insights and perspective?
Is the book well written and easy to read?
Only a book that gets a “Yes” on both questions gets a 5 star review. |
