Pipeline Management
| |
| Imagine a bath filled with water. Almost instantly the water begins to evaporate or can slowly seep through the plughole. Over a period of time the water level reduces and the temperature drops! The only way to keep the water level high and the water hot is to turn on the tap and continually refill it. Equally, you want to keep your prospects ‘on the boil’ by actions that continuously warm up and consolidate your relationship with them.
You certainly don’t want all your efforts to go down the drain!

Getting Personal With Imprinted Business Gifts For The Desk
| |
| With many business people spending more than 40 hours per week at their offices, the need is greater than ever for business gifts that bring the comforts of home to the office. This concept began with business logo coffee mugs, which provided advertising while also giving office-dwellers a way to enjoy their morning beverage the way they did at home, instead of drinking from a paper cup. The market has expanded well beyond coffee mugs now, and includes collapsible cups that make drinking from the water cooler easier (and more eco-friendly, too). |

Do you make your clients feel safe?
| |
| Do you make your clients feel safe?
If your clients don't feel safe - they won't buy from you. And they won't tell you why. It's not enough to be safe. You must make them feel safe. When they don't feel safe fear kicks into gear. Fear is the biggest obstacle to buying.

Water Everywhere!
| |
| With water so plentiful around us, usually people question only the quality of water. Hardly anyone asks you seriously, whether you think you drink ENOUGH water. They ask, instead, what TYPE of water you drink, if they ask at all. Typically, the people who ask what type of water you drink have some sort of a water filter to sell.
I’m not selling water filters! |

Water – It’s a Great Place to Be in the Future
| |
| Most people in this land believe access to water is some kind of right and that we should not charge a market price for water, explained Mike Farrell with aspenIbiz. As a result, market forces have not molded the water industry and many are shocked at the picture of government run water systems which look like something out of the old Soviet Union with unclean, old, and rusted plants … pipes filled with crud and buildup … and outhouse like structures with no security, tapping right into the country’s drinking water supply. We have a water crisis waiting to happen. Read this informative article to understand how the unfolding water disaster is a good place to be in the years ahead and how it is generating an alternative wealth creating strategy spanning the next decade. |

Leaders Handle Performance Problems
| |
| A water bearer in India had two pots attached to each end of a pole. He would sling the pole over his shoulders to carry water from the stream to his house every day.

One day the cracked pot spoke to the water bearer about its shame and apologized for dripping water while the other pot never lost a drop. The water bearer replied to the pot, "Yes, you are cracked and do not carry water as well your brother pot. But you have an ability that he does not have. |
