Missing Sales Research and Sales Superstars
I read this article on the Best-Kept Secrets of Sales Research. First, I wouldn't call this sales research as much as market intelligence. Second, I wouldn't exactly call this stuff secretive.
Missing Sales Research and a Call for Sales Superstars
So the research or intelligence above may help you learn why you didn't get the business, perceptions about your company, its shortcomings, and the perceived advantages of your competition. But the author left out the most useful sales research...
Don't Slash Prices, Do In Store Promotions
How to get more customers in the store? These days it seems to be the question that most retailers are asking and is a much more optimum solution than the slashing of prices. Yes, buyers may be looking for bargains, but they also value a fun and entertaining shopping experience. If you provide that, the customers will come.

WHY KENNY ROGER’S GAMBLER SONG MAKE A LOT OF BUSINESS SENSE
The other day I was listening to music and Kenny Roger’s song The Gambler was playing. I had not listened to this song for quite a while and my mind was captivated by that song for a while. This song had a business idea for any entrepreneur in the world. The song says that every gambler knows the secret for surviving. What if the song says every marketer or business know the secret for survival? What would be the secret for survival would it be good customer service, superior products, or would it be sound financial management?

Monsters Under the Bed
Do you remember laying awake at night worrying about monsters under your bed? The same paranoia can exist in organizations as well. Some groups become paralyzed by fear of the unknown. It can stifle creativity and strangle progress.

Emotional Intelligence – The Hard Truth About Soft Skills
How are your people skills? Academic research has shown that people with high Emotional Intelligence are more successful in business and in life. Emotional Intelligence refers to how well you know yourself, your ability to effectively manage your emotions, and how well you interact with others. Emotional Intelligence is a critical competency for leaders. It is very common in technical fields for people to be promoted to management because they excelled as technicians without much regard for their people skills. Unlike IQ, Emotional Intelligence can be developed.

Financial Intelligence
For years, academic experts have been measuring people’s intelligence by administering an I.Q. test. More recently, behavioral scientists and those in the field of psychology have been discussing a principle they call emotional intelligence. I would submit there is another intellectual area of expertise I would call financial intelligence.

Social Emotional Intelligence in Leadership
Leaders and entire organizations have discovered that success in the workplace has significantly less to do with intelligence or core job competencies and more to do with emotional and behavioral intelligence. The best technicians and the most brilliant team members will often end up with the highest degree of dysfunction when their emotional intelligence is very low. The fattest human resource files have very little to do with job knowledge and generally, have a great deal to do with poor behavioral adaptation and emotional intelligence.
EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
Emotional Intelligence is the number one predictor of professional success and personal excellence! Only part of our success in life can be attributed to intelligence. Other qualities: trust, integrity, authenticity, creativity, honesty, presence and resilience, are at least as important. These 'other intelligences' are collectively described as Emotional Intelligence. Unlike intelligence, the good news is that EQ can be learned or developed; it's not something you are stuck with. We can develop in ways that can improve our relationships, our workplaces, our parenting, and our classrooms. We could turn society on its ear if we learned to recognize our emotions and control our reactions; if we combined our thinking with our feelings; if we learned to channel our flow of feelings into creative expression, an expression of love.
A vertical approach to online marketing
In today’s economy low cost targeted marketing, with measured results, is a must for advertisers to gain solid market intelligence, control advertising budgets, generate quality leads and increase brand recognition Publisher’s (web site owners) need ads being placed on their valuable web site real estate that relates to their market. This maximizes revenue and increases web site visibility. Dedicated vertical market advertising networks are the best solution to accomplish this.

What Is Your Sales Team’s A. Q.?
It has been known for some time that if you want to measure an individual’s intelligence, you administer an Intelligence Quotient test. This has been an accepted method of measuring one’s intelligence for many years. In sales management, intelligence is important, but this does not get you closer to measuring or predicting your sales team’s effectiveness or the ability to predict with any certainty the projections of future sales. How do measure this? With an A. Q. test.

How Multiple Intelligence Theory Reveals Opportunities for Personal Growth
Very few topics in our culture are as talked about with as little understanding as the issue of intelligence. Research shows that there may actually be nine types of intelligence, yet many types of intelligence are not supported by traditional education or celebrated by society.
Cultural Intelligence - Or The Art Of Avoiding “FARTFULLNESS”
We all know that intelligence is a good thing; however, it seems that new “flavors” of intelligence pop-up with annoying regularity. A few years ago it was emotional intelligence – this was cited as a “must have” for successful organizational players. Then we had social intelligence as the key skill. Now cultural intelligence is the hot topic!
Behavioural Intelligence – The Subtle Art of Controlling the Conversation
Practising the skills and disciplines of Behavioural Intelligence will give you an almost unfair advantage in meetings, interactions and negotiations. Making a conscious decision on your next behaviour rather than just reacting is the heart of Behavioural Intelligence. Controlling a conversation or meeting with Behavioural Intelligence is a subtle art. It’s not about being dominating and demanding, it’s about noticing what’s happening (or not happening) and choosing a behaviour to advance towards your chosen objectives - and it's very important to recognise the difference between Push and Pull behaviours.
Soft Skills, Hard Results (Part 2)
There's not a lot we can do about the processing power between our ears. For the most part, we're stuck with whatever intelligence quotient (IQ) we've got. The good news for many of us is that our IQ is dramatically less important to success and happiness than our emotional intelligence (EQ). What's even better is that EQ, unlike IQ, can be improved.
