Matching the Right Type of Salesperson to Your Customers
The most successful sales managers recognise that all good salespeople must have certain vital skills and motivations. The degree and type required, however, will vary according to what customers need in order to use the product or service.

Boost Your Business -- Become An Advisor
So what is the difference between an agent and an advisor? Agents just want to list a home and hope it sells. Advisors help their clients lead the market, not follow the market. They do that by knowing their market inside and out. Advisors are inquisitive because they know they must understand where potential clients are in the process. When you understand that along with understanding their motivation, you’re on your way to being a great advisor.

HOW TO DEMOGRAPHICALLY AND GEOGRAPHICALY SEGMENT THE MARKET FOR EFFECTIVE ADVERTISING AND PROMOTION.
I have talked about segmenting the market before, but it does not hurt to repeat. This is because segmenting your market makes you focus on what you want to do for your business and what is your target market profile. This is by understanding which market segments you are going to attack and which ones you are going to ignore.

FRANCHISING IN INDIA: A Critical Perspective
Franchising in India is not regulated and unlike popular statistics, only 25 to 30% franchisees are successful. Based on my experience in understanding franchising in several large markets, India is atleast 30 + years behind any developed market when it comes to the market size, growth potential and the level of expertise in the franchising business.

There are more than a few market analysis templates floating around for free, a simple web search will net you more than you would ever use. However, an understanding of the components that make up a market analysis template and making sure you have everything you need in place can be very helpful.

We Can’t Understand Customers
I often hear sales, marketing, and change management folks talking about ‘understanding the customer.’ But what, exactly, does that mean? On the face of it, it’s a no-brainer. Of course it’s vital to ‘understand the customer.’ But it’s not so simple as just ‘understanding’ as there are so many facets to this. I must admit that when I hear folks using the term “understanding the customer’, it sounds to me as if they are seeking to ‘understand’ so they can sell or influence – using the act of understanding as part of a sales cycle.

Product Management Tools and Techniques
Being market-driven requires organizations to build a strong product management capability.

Internet Marketing - Selecting the Right Affiliate Marketing Niche For You
Once you decide to try online niche marketing to gain a better understanding of affiliate marketing and how it works, comes along the inevitable question: what is the right niche for me?
