“A Business Coach’s Top Ten Tactics for Marketing Professional Services”
| |
| Marketing professional services is a real and difficult challenge. The challenges of marketing professional services are different from those of marketing products. Two major reasons for the differences are that clients cannot see or touch professional services before they buy them and the professional services are often produced and consumed simultaneously. And another reason is that marketing professional services is split among marketing, sales, professional and management staff instead of a dedicated marketing and sales force.
Based upon my research and my own professional experience, I developed a Top Ten Tactics for marketing professional services.

The Knowledge Workers Concept
| |
| Knowledge, as a corporate asset, is the focus of much discussion. What constitutes knowledge and where does it reside? By some estimations, knowledge is a personal possession, something an individual has as a result of education and/or experience; by other estimations, it is a "consensually supported result of information processing and thus part of organizational memory, a publicly documented body of knowledge (Nevis et al., 1995). However, most would agree that, in a corporate sense, knowledge is the productive application of information(Bendaly, 1996). |

Knowledge And The Intellectural Capital Of The Organization
| |
| In the new economy of the millennium, knowledge has emerged as an asset to be valued, developed and managed. The quest for knowledge is not new: in the fourth century BC, Aristotle noted "All men by nature desire knowledge." Now, 25 centuries later, knowledge drives the global economy. No longer is knowledge considered only an individual's personal wisdom; knowledge is a component of the intellectual capital of organizations (Stewart 1997). |

The Value Of Knowledge To The Organization
| |
| Since knowledge is an intangible asset, it is difficult to assign a value to it. Its amorphous nature exacerbates this difficulty. Lew Platt, former CEO of Hewlett Packard, has acknowledged the dilemma: "If HP know what HP knows, we would be three times as profitable." Intellectual capital is collective knowledge, but who collects it and who disseminates it? Successful and competitive organizations are rich in knowledge, but whose knowledge is it and and who assigns value to it? Values assigned to knowledge may differ. For example, knowledge May have one value for the organization, another for shareholders, yet another for current and potential partners, and still one more for individuals within the organization. |

| Knowledge on it's own
Knowledge used widely gains a leverage to obtain more resources and understand more viewpoints and accepted current norms. Knowledge with action of course, but what does this mean? Well how about when you buy mutual funds, do you buy them based on selection, type, company, personal information, fund information or did someone tell you which one to buy.

Networking: Hate to miss it, but I really don’t want to go!
| |
| Networking is touted as the best resource for professional success and personal growth. Whether you are looking for a job, professional development, business opportunities or shared-interest socializing, networking is said to be the key. But like any other key, it doesn’t work unless it clicks.
What clicks for an intellectually curious introvert like me are organized interactions that engage through knowledge (real problem solving) and sincerity. In other words, if you want to engage me, your pitch must make sense. You can’t sell me dog food if I don’t have a dog. |

Are You a True Salels Professiona
| |
| Salesmanship is a learned skill. You can perfect that skill. Yes, it does help to have an outgoing personality, high self-esteem and an ego to become a real pro. But, these attributes alone won't make you successful. Confidence in yourself, confidence in your products and confidence in your company are also key ingredients. The only way to gain this kind of ultimate confidence and become a true sales professional is by attaining knowledge. Study your products, understand your value propositions and understand what your competitive advantage is. Success is rarely an accident. Success is generally the result of a combination of motivation, attitude, skill and knowledge. Not everybody can be a professional sales person. If you are --- you are special.

Knowledge Is Not Power – It’s What You Do With That Knowledge, That’s What Really Counts
| |
| That’s right. Knowledge is not power. Nope. This is one of the biggest lies out there. Try this instead: “It is the implementation of knowledge that is the real power”.
You see it isn’t what you know that matters, it’s what you do that counts. Knowledge alone won’t fix a thing. It’s what you do with that knowledge; that’s what will make the difference.

The Money Maze
| |
| The current turmoil in the financial markets has created more confusion and controversy surrounding money, wealth, and personal finance than ever before. Surprisingly, money is not the key to wealth. Knowledge is the key to wealth.
People who are wealthy have a high degree of knowledge and understanding as it relates to money. They did not obtain this knowledge because they have money. They have money because they obtained this knowledge.
