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.

Trust-based relationships
I typed ‘Sales' into 'youtube' the other day just to see what was on offer. I have to say that some of the initial videos displayed on the front page were very disappointing indeed, especially when it came to building trust-based relationships with clients.
BUILDING VIRTUAL RELATIONSHIPS
A new survey of over 3000 workers, commissioned by BT Business, reveals that poorly managed communication may put customer and client relationships at risk.

Sell More and Work Less: A Strategic Approach to Sales
The secret to great selling is that less is more. Less confusion creates more clarity. Less activity produces more results. Less indiscriminate effort produces more targeted effort. Selling is the most strategic business function there is, and it ought to receive the thoughtful, purposeful attention you give to the other aspects of your business. Concentrate on fewer deals that are worth more to your company – more revenue, more profit, more long-term repeat purchases. If the market or the economy forces you to rely on small deals, don’t spend a fortune to win each one. Keep your eye on productivity. It pays off. Read on for more insights...

Who Loves Your Business (and Why)?

Fundamentals of media interview skills what to wear
What a person looks like while delivering a message must be consistent with the message being delivered or it will have a significant impact on how the message is perceived. When a person looks sloppy, it sends a message to the audience that overwhelms the message coming out of his mouth. This article provides a great overview of what to wear the next time you are under the glare of the TV cameras.
How Not To Impress People
I answer my own phone. I always have. If I’m sitting at my desk working on something and my phone rings I’ll usually pick it up, even if I don’t recognize the phone number. I know this doesn’t fit the “be hyper-productive” method of life, but I like the randomness of it.
Boost Your Business... Pay Attention to the Phone
This week I was doing some research for a conference I 'll be speaking at shortly. One of the people I rang from the industry I was researching answered the phone with "How can we help you change your life today?". Well that blew me away. How often do you ring a business and are greeted with a fantastic message like that? I knew then that this business was different. I immediately thought that if this is the way the phone was answered, then what they offered would be superior to other businesses who offered similar services and products. If the salon was located nearby I definitely would have booked in. It wouldn't take much convincing for me to spend money with them.

Tele-phony
Using the phone poorly can inadvertently act as a detriment to our success. Understand that the phone conveys our personality, our sincerity, our belief, our energy, our attitude, our professionalism, and our message. If you aren’t aware of how you sound, you may very well be sending the exact oppo
The Echoes Heard at Work
Coward. That word, along with others less printable, popped to mind when I heard a story about a friend's son. It turns out, he learned he was no longer employed via a text-message to his cell phone on a Sunday night. The brief message from his ex-boss informed him that his last work day had been Friday.

What is a Phone Tree
A phone tree is a highly structured method to pass important messages to large groups of people. Though phone trees are efficient, they have their drawbacks including multiple opportunities for the phone chain to break down through message transmission.

Don’t Blame Mental Pause
Lately I catch myself in mid-action, trying to remember what the heck I was doing. Or trying to remember what I was going to do next, where I was going when I started up my web browser. To add insult to injury, the other night I cut my finger reaching for my phone on my kitchen counter. I'd just turned the lights off but I knew the phone was there. I simply forgot that I’d placed the knife next to the phone. I hurriedly reached for the phone, and sliced myself pretty good.
What Impression Do You Give?
This is not about first impressions, although those are very important. This is about the impression we give our clients, specially over the phone when we don't have the added advantage of body language to convey our true message.
How to Click with People on the Phone
Telephone. Tell a phone. There are times when I get the feeling I’m talking to a phone instead of over the phone. Incoming telemarketing calls don’t allow for meaningful connections. And by all reports, cold calls are another example of missed opportunities. Yet there’s no question that you can build connection with people over the phone.
