Home Based Business Team Creates A New Paradigm
Home based business team almost sounds like an oxymoron. Typically working from home means you are working for yourself and by yourself. The business circle is usually limited to a few people doing the work. New technologies make it possible for like minded entrepreneurs to change the paradigm of the home based business owner. Prior to the Internet, people purchased distributorships for the privilege of selling quality products for a commission. Many of the baby boomer generation will remember the visits of the Watkins and Fuller Brush man. Instead of working alone, entrepreneurs are finding like minded individuals who want to work as a member of a home based business team.

Lesson #1: Be Clear About Who Your Company Caters To

Focus On Talent Management… It’s Your Future!
The future of your company depends on your ability to develop talent! The question is... are companies headed in that direction? I was recently in deep conversation with one of my mentors. He said, "Employees these days have no loyalty to the companies they work for. This new generation of employees doesn’t think about that stuff. For this reason, many companies today are less focused on developing their people. Many of these companies expect employees to invest in developing themselves."
Uncovering Your "Best-odds" SMB Prospects
As a seller in the SMB market space, you want to target groups of companies where you have the best opportunity to get business in the door.

Often lead generation is associated with marketing activities, such as cold-calling, targeted at generating new sales opportunities for a company’s sales force.

Marketers Lagging in Demand Generation
"I find it sad how badly most companies are doing in B2B demand generation today. Instead of complaining about the poor economy, if more invested in quality demand generation programs, they'd put up vastly better results." Jeff Ogden, President, Find New Customers.
A Terrible Prospecting Email Example
As we pointed out in this blog article “The Current State of B2B Demand Generation“, most companies still use email as their main lead generation tool. So how well they use email is critical. This example shows how NOT to do it. This is an actual email a business partner received from a multi-billion dollar telephony company.
