Is There a Cost to Increased Productivity?
| |
| It's been proven again and again in staff surveys and research that it's people and they're happiness quotient in the workplace that makes all the difference in their effectiveness.

Guerrilla Direct Response
| |
| Direct response marketing is a lot different from indirect response marketing, although guerrillas like it best when the two are teamed up. The first is geared to obtain orders right here and right now. The second is geared to obtain orders eventually. Although a fair amount of standard, indirect marketing often is necessary to set the stage, to make prospects ready to buy, and to separate your company from strangers, it’s when you initiate direct marketing that you first taste blood. |

10 Commandments of Leadership-Tone Setting
| |
| One of the lead questions that we routinely ask in leadership training programs is “who do your people work for?” Routinely the common response is the company name or a division within that company or even the parent organization. Occasionally we will hear a response about working for themselves painting a picture of self-motivated team members. Rarely we will hear the correct answer that they work for you. |

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? |

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. |

The Power of Yes!
| |
| You probably already know that positive people are more fun to be around; that it doesn't feel good when people say 'no' to you; and, that being open-minded is generally better than being critical or close-minded. But what you may not know is just how overwhelming the evidence is a 'yes' mentality can help you in almost every aspect of your life and business.
My aim is to hit you hard and repeatedly with the 'yes' hammer until it's permanently embossed on your head and in your mind. My hope is that you re-wire your knee-jerk reaction for a 'yes' auto-response -- or better yet, you re-wire your brain so that you consciously choose a 'yes' or 'no' response with no knee-jerking at all! |
