Start making your own.Here's a real estate analogy that directly relates to your job search. (Trust me.)Where would you rather buy a 3-bedroom house, in Japan or the United States?Considering the price would be about $2 million in Japan vs. about $200,000 in the US, you'd likely opt for an American home. And why is Japanese real estate so pricey? Mainly because only about 15% of Japan is habitable. The remaining 85% of land there is too mountainous to build on. So prices are driven into the stratosphere by the intense competition for prime real estate.Well, the traditional employment market is just like Japanese real estate.Advertised job openings -- those listed on the Internet or in newspaper classifieds -- are only about 15% of the market. Yet, this is where about 80-90% of job seekers spend most of their time looking … so #13, Write the letter with your prospect's language.

And y Compensation and Six Sigma Black Belts n better to read it to your friends, make some changes until it sounds right for you and your friends.One of the more ambiguous elements of a Six Sigma project is the level and type of compensation the organization should give to its Six Sigma leaders and team members. On the one hand, setting compensation is not an integral part of any stage of a Six Sigma project; on the other hand, compensation is an important instrument to build loyalty and a sense of accomplishment that is a crucial element to the organization’s Six Sigma success. While there are no hard and fast rules for compensation for Six Sigma leaders and team members, there are some good ways to think about how to productively provide compensation to your people. Black Belts are the key change agents for the Six Sigma process. They have an important role and should be compensated accordingly. If your organization is large enough to have people dedicated full-time to leading Six Sigma projects, their base pay should be in the top of your organization’s range for their level of management. If your organization is asking a manager to also devote part of his or her time to leading a Six Sigma project, you need to find some way to compensate them for their extra efforts. In addition to base pay, you can find creative ways for recognition for completed projects. Black Belts should receive some special and public recogni #6, Unique Selling Proposition with strong guarantee.

A lot has been written about how franchisors can promote positive relations with their franchisees. Franchisors should maintain proper dialogue, reward the best performing franchisees and hold regular meetings. I believe that the duty also lies with the franchisee to help the franchisor achieve his goals of maintaining proper and profitable relationships both parties.Most franchisors aim to provide the ultimate in training, support and service to their franchisees. After all if the franchisees are successful then so will the franchisor. It is actually quite amazing how few franchisees take advantage of this relationship and utilise all that is available for them.Maintaining daily or weekly dialogue with franchisor is essential. After all, they have the expertise and the knowledge to help the franchisee overcome most problems. If the franchisee does maintain regular contact then the franchisor will always be thinking of new ways to help him or her. They will also be keen to impart their knowledge which has taken them years to acquire.The franchisees should ensure that they attend most if not all conference calls and annual meetings. These are usually motivational and help to maintain relationships We are all children once who love to hear stories, and we still are the same children that will never get bored with magical stories.

This gives the readers a direction and make it easier for readers to follow the trend of your story.The commercial starts off with music by Tchaikovsky and three little ballerinas dressed in pink. It’s time for a break. They get out glasses and milk. They pour what milk they have into three glasses and sit down to enjoy Oreos and milk. But, oh my gosh, there’s a problem. The glasses are thin and tall and the milk is so far from the top. They can’t reach the milk, even with their tiny little fingers, to dunk their cookies. What can they do?The solution: they pour all of the milk into one glass and take turns dunking their Oreos.The Oreo Solution: instant gratification can stimulate simple decisions.How often do we brainstorm, and plan, and theorize, when a simple solution will do? Also, how often do we see the simple solution, but look away because it seems too simple?We know that we live in a complicated world, so obviously we need a complicated answer. Wrong. I like to look for the easiest answer. One nice thing about the easiest solution is that if it doesn’t work, you can move instantly to another easy answer.I remember a problem concerning a new office building that rose high into the sky. At quitting time there was a rush to leave and the elevators seemed to take forever. People had to wait . . . and when people have to wait, they complain.

Only write letter for products and services you 100% believe in. And you shall create an energetic and passionate sales letter. #16, Be Honest. As the world's first "hypnotic writer" - Joe Vitale has written in his "Unspoken Marketing Secrets" ebook that says: "#13: People know when you are lying, though some may mistrust their own instincts." So be sure that you write your copy with sincere and honestly. #17, Don't make your offer sounds too-good-to-be-true and be specific. People buy with 2 thinking process: emotional and logical thinking. Some are even a mix of both. Joe Vitale continue to mentioned this in his ebook that majority of us buy with their emotional reasons, and then back up with their own logic. So do spend some time to insert logical reasons for your prospects in every emotional sales pitch from your letter. Be as precise and specific as possible in your offers and benefits. Use words like, "How To Increase Your Sales by 88.7% more within 2 months!" Another killer is to end the sales by offering a risk free guarantee such that they will have no qualms about making a decision on the spot. #18, Use bullet form only for the benefits of the features. Example of feature and benefits are below: Feature - This website templates package comes with 306 different designs. Benefit of this feature - With 306 different website templates designs, you can now save time and start using them instantly without going through long-hour of designing your own templates anymore! #19, To have irresistible offer and back up with strong testimonials that respond to your prospect’s needs. Craft your offer and make it attractive until no sane person can ever refuse. You could over deliver them with insane bonus that worth 10 times more than what the product cost and close the deal with money back guarantee up to 90 days. Back your offer up with testimonials, this always pulls consistently and significantly higher sales for you. Ask your customers to be precise writing testimonials for you, state their name, address, and even better, to insert website address of that person. #20, Make your prospect a call to action to act NOW! Don't forget to include a call to action to remind your prospect to act now. Majority people will forget what they've read and walk away from your offer FOREVER if they don't take the offer on the spot. It's so important to make it easy and hassle free for them to order by including as many payment options as possible. #21, Put scarcism for your prospects. Don't give time for your prospects who will only take it for granted. Create urgency for them with limited time and copies so they will order and buy it on the spot. #22, Use P.S. in every copy you write. Survey has shown that majority people read P.S. (postscripts) right after they read the headline. So it is wise that you use it to include the summary and reinforce your offers again. #23, Make the letter easy to read for the eyes, Use short sentences in short paragraphs Use suitable font types and different sizes Manage the format well such as some words need to be bold, italics and underline Always use white background #24, Sign your name with a proper signature and address yourself clearly. It shall give a more personalized feeling if you include a scanned signature by hand into your letter. #24, Finally, make your readers feels like they can actually see, hear and feel who they are speaking. Make your letter contain a 'human touch' that makes the character of the writer comes right through. Bonus: Prepare an opt-in email list for readers who want to think over before they buy from you. Many first-time readers will not order from you on the spot. Give them a chance to hear from you by setting up your own follow-up system such as e-zines, newsletters and e-postcards. This is a checklist that I've been using to write my sales letters and now it will guide you in the correct way. Ensure to fulfill all the above points when writing your own sales letter.
