How to Get from 20 Million to 100 Million in Online Sales: Lessons from Agora Publishing
| |
| I was thinking a lot about the success of our competitors such as Centerpointe and especially, Agora Publishing. Michael Masterson is the founder of Agora. Earlytorise is one of Agora's mini empires, because Agora Publishing itself is a $100M company based mainly on internet marketing. Although they have physical products, the bulk of what they do lies in internet marketing or using internet marketing channels. I found it interesting because most Internet marketers don't get that big. Most internet marketers celebrate when they earn $1M a year. What Agora makes is almost akin to the direct marketing giants, the offline marketing giants like Boardroom and Weiss International. We need to start doing what successful businesses are doing, so I thought to myself, what is Agora doing that we aren't? |

Eyetrack Study May Surprise You
| |
| The Poynter Institute's decade-old "Eyetrack" study showed how consumers read a printed newspaper page. [In May 2000], results were released for the online equivalent. The results are remarkably different, confirming what we all know, but don't always practice - that the Web is a different medium where rules about user behavior have little to do with what works in the print medium.

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? |

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. |

5 Areas and 20 Questions for Improving Organisational Health
| |
| Just like individuals, there are very good reasons why every business should do regular health checks. While most medium to large businesses are aware of this and, in part, use frequent CEO briefings to do this, what happens in small to medium sized businesses (SMEs) can be a little like what happens with too many people – we know we should do it but never get around to it until a situation arises that cannot be ignored. |
