Find marketing partners
| |
| A marketing partner is another business which can complement your business or help to refer new customers your way in exchange for reciprocal referrals.
A good example of this is if you leave some of your leaflets in the sales area of a fellow business, preferable in the same town or area as your business and in exchange you have their leaflets in your reception area.
To take this concept a little further you could introduce promotional schemes; for example...you could put on your sales literature "When you buy a pizza you get 20% discount off of XYZ video store". At the same time as you offering this you can get XYZ video store to offer a similar promotion so that when a customer rents a video they will get 20% off pizzas at ABC pizza store. |

The Fear of Offending your Prospect will hold you back
| |
| We are all concerned about what people think of us; our family, our friends, our fellow business members and the people we prospect in our business. Have you ever observed in the gym how people are looking around at everyone and wondering what he/she thinks of me in my designer shorts, Nike runners and recently tanned legs from their latest vacation instead of focusing on their routine? This is human weakness for wanting to be accepted or approved by everybody. Guess what. None of that matters because it is what you think of yourself, your self love is what counts and matters most and regardless of anyone else's opinion it is your self- belief that will lead you to success.

Branding YOU – Should You Put Your Photo on Your Business Card?
| |
| I was at a networking event this week having a pleasant conversation with a nice fellow about Branding and how to set yourself apart in the marketplace. We were discussing the benefits of using a professional designer to create a brand for your business. Upon handing him my business card he said "I see that you have your photo on your business card. I've been told that it's not a good idea to do that. What do you think?" |

Great Leadership Requires Inspiration, IV
| |
| It's made me sad, over the years, to see so many promising young leaders (and business owners) who just don't seem to have any passion - for anything. They're all very good at what they do... but by the time they get to me (or any number of my fellow executive coaches), they've come to a point in their lives and careers where they're just not into it. And the first thing they want me to tell them is how they can find their passion.... |
