One Serious Sales Tool Everyone can Use to Increase Sales

| No matter what business you’re in no matter what you’re selling there is one sales tool you must know how to take advantage of. That tool is networking.

Karate for the Head Or Heart?
| |
| Many years ago, when I was teaching karate, I could usually tell how well my students would perform from their motivation to learn in the first place. Often it was just a passing fancy, an ego trip, or a belt. But for others it was a burning desire.
Once, a university professor approached me and told me he wanted to become a black belt in karate. In fact, he confided, it had been his goal for over fifteen years. Now, for the first time, he inquired what it would take to make his goal a reality. I told him that to achieve this distinguished rank in karate, he would need to dedicate at least one hour a day for four years. He was visibly disappointed. After a moment, he said, "I had no idea it would take that kind of effort." He walked away and never again pursued karate. |

For a number of years, this tool was viewed as a fad but it has survived that first impression and become a tool for organizational improvement. This tool is multi-rater feedback or 360 degree feedback.

| |
| While Social Media is the newfangled thing for everyone to talk about, monitor and watch these days amongst marketers, I see a day in the future when social media will be yet another tool in a marketer's tool belt just as "cable" is now just another line item in a marketer's advertising budget. We will get to a day when marketers can't imagine developing a campaign without at least considering how their brand, or new product or service offering might be expressed digitally across a range of social media options. |

Use Color to Your Advantage
| |
| I recall the late 70s and early 80s, wearing my tool belt; I daily got my hands dirty as I jumped into each job. One simply cannot call him/her self a real estate mentor if they have not paid their dues to that extent. |
