Your Office on the Web! (Virtual Offices)
Chances are you work as part of a small team. It may be your whole office or just one department in a larger organization, or you may be part of a team that changes with each project. Regardless, your projects typically involve exchanging files back and forth, copious e-mail threads, and the need for viewing a shared group of contacts and calendar. Wouldn't it be great if you could have a central place to keep everything related to each project and the ability to access to it from anywhere? You can with a web-based virtual office.

Making your new product launch a success
For many companies, the success of a new product launch is a life or death event and they usually take pains to see that the sales reps have detailed information about the product features. To this end, marketing produces slick and expensive videos and brochures, while impressing on the reps the importance of pushing the product on anyone they can to attain sales goals and win sales competitions.

Developing Sales & Marketing Materials for Overseas
You’ve selected a target market overseas, and found a distribution partner, who has now asked you for some sales collateral materials to help him or her market your product or service successfully. As you put together your brochures and sales sheets, you’ll want to keep a few things in mind to ensure that your printed marketing materials are culturally and linguistically correct.
Low-Tech Sales Tools Rule
Selling success does not require lots of high-tech gadgetry. Snazzy spread-sheets, complicated flip charts, or four-color brochures are not needed. If you have these tools, by all means use them, as long as they do not interfere with why you showed up in the first place-and that is to ask the right questions. One of the major keys to being a sales superstar is being a diagnostician, a highly-effective questioner. The following five low-tech tools make the questioning phase more effective no matter what else you bring to the sales call.

What do clients want?
Clients don't expect to be coerced, bullied, tricked or intimidated into buying. They don't expect to be treated like an idiot by sales people who just talk at them and flash brochures or product sheets. Relationships do not work effectively if they are forced!
Questions That Sell
We are working on a new campaign for a client and spent a few hours today looking at competitive web sites, ads and brochures. After about three hours we looked at each other and said, “Can you remember anything any of these companies said that stands out?” Ken said, “I bet if I took all these brochures, and removed the company name and logo, even our client couldn’t tell them apart!” Every single firm started their pitch with a description of their products and services, and lots of detail on how great they are. Then they added thrilling descriptions of their plants (usually with a picture of the parking lot) and a price list.

The Ethical Road to Success
Do you remember the old Sunday school discussions on being fair and having ethics? Today, ethics may seem to have gone by the way side but most businesses do have a code of ethics written right into their mission statements, as well as into their corporate literature. Public confidence is achieved through codes of ethics when they are shared in company literature such as brochures or sales and promotional materials.
What Sales Literature Do I REALLY Need?
There is still one piece of sales literature most companies can't do without. While the Web and digital media have made it easier to reduce the amount of printing previously needed to provide product brochures,catalogs, and other sales materials to potential customers, there's still one, virtually indispensable piece of literature you'll want in your sales tool chest to sell your product or service more effectively.

Reflections of a Lone Sales Wolf
How time flies. I remember back in the mid 1970's when professional selling was easy and a whole lot of fun. We were Lone Wolfs back then. We controlled everything, we were professionals, we owned a patch of dirt. All we had to do to maintain ownership was to produce sales. We had our tools, a company car, trunk files, brochures, samples and a calendar/card file. As time passed, some of us even got car phones. Sure, we did call reports and had sales meetings, but make no mistake, we were pros. We owned that patch of dirt and most of the customers who were on it. If we chose to leave for greener pastures, most of our customers went with us. We had respect. Everything focused on relationships. I mentioned how I even remember my first sales training seminar, "Needs Satisfaction Selling." I was a rookie and having the time of my life.
