Networking: It isn't what you do...

Incorporating Social Media into Traditional Marketing
It has been suggested by social media enthusiasts that by using it, businesses no longer need what is known as traditional marketing tools, i.e. business cards, web sites, etc. I believe incorporating social media into traditional marketing will enhance the ‘brick and mortar’ of traditional marketing. People still need business cards for face-to-face meetings, web sites provide essential company information and services provided. People want/expect more than a sales pitch in a tweet to encourage them to use your services.

Local Store Marketing Is Hard
It can be difficult. There are absolutely certain personal traits necessary to conduct Local Store Marketing… You must have a certain level of energy. You cannot be a hermit. You must enjoy meeting people and creating new partnerships. You must have the vision to see why you are making this commitment and how big the payoff will be. You should be a little impatient and desire bigger and better things. If you cannot commit to some actual legwork and extra effort… Local Store Marketing won’t work for you. Your only chance at moving forward is to hire, barter or bribe someone else who will put out extra effort. It could be that you are more content with writing checks for advertisements and hoping that they will bring back more than 1 or 2 % return (which is really a 99 or 98% failure rate).

What Workers are REALLY Thinking About in Meetings
The next time you worry that your meeting presentation might not be detailed enough, or you want to make sure you include all of the relevant data, or you want to re-do that PowerPoint slide one last time, you might want to reconsider. People apparently are not hanging on your every word.

The Exploratory Meeting
The Exploratory Meeting is a key element in the sales process.

How To Introduce Yourself in a Way That Will Grow Your Business
I don't know about you but I just love summertime! It's a time for outdoor barbecues and pool parties and meeting lots of fun new people.

Improve the Effectiveness of Your Meetings
Here are five tips to improve your meetings. 1. Reduce griping and venting. The leader of the meeting can allow people to vent, but not have it become a debilitating whirlpool. 2. Use the agenda wisely. Know when to follow the script and when to rip it up. 3. Summarize the discussion frequently. This prevents an endless cycle of people in violent agreement. 4. Agree to disagree. Use the rule of three to cut off acromony without hurting people’s feelings. 5. Manage the time efficiently. Make sure people feel the value in the meeting time.

Thriving in the Gap
Making the best of where you are with what you have can be a challenge these days with the pressure of meeting setting and meeting sales goals, retaining talent and clients. How can we thrive in the gap between delusional optimism and paralyzing panic? The key is to stay where the action is and that is in the middle between these two extremes. You can't do it alone so put people around you that don't think like you do. People who can challenge and optimize your thinking. Make the most of what opposing ways of seeing it give to you and you will find that your networking is more robust, developing your employees is more effective, solutions drive more sustainable results. In short you will make better decisions that serve in the short, mid and long term.
