Abstract Business Marketing Strategy for the Entrepreneur
If you look at those Corporations in franchising today you see the great companies that use these systems to move markets and deliver products and services to America. Franchising is obviously a power play in the marketing strategy game book. General Motors uses the franchise system or special teams, dealerships, to move their products in each market. Now take your mind to the “Family and friends Program” in Telecom, that is still being done by all those selling mobile communications. Think of some of the ways hyper type marketing has been done in so many areas and mark

Making It Great!
Today I am joined by Phil Gerbyshak of Make It Great!, one of the web’s premier personal development bloggers.Benjamin: How did you get started in the field of Self Improvement?Phil: About 5 years ago, I decided I wasn’t happy with the path I was on, so I decided to pick up a few good books to try to get motivated and change my life.

What Not To Do in Your Cubicle!

Do place pictures of your family, relatives and friends on your desk but limit it to about 4 or 5 pictures maximum. You are not in jail. You will likely see some of these people when you go home. A collage of photos on your desk not only makes you look like a daydreamer, but it is very cluttered and a bit inconsiderate. Keep it simple and everyone will be happy. Also, no photos of nude men/women or anything that is offensive to other colleagues such as vulgar pictures or calendars. Not only is it rude, but you’ll likely have your HR department speaking to you very soon!
It is never okay during office hours to use your speaker phone! This is loud, distracting and just plain rude! Unless your cubicle has a door and a roof, I don’t recommend this. Use a headset if you would like to be hands-free from the phone while on a conference call or taking notes on a call. This not only is quiet but it is great for keeping noise out while your are not on the phone and simply just typing or working on a presentation etc.
Do not make personal phone calls to family and friends that involve arguing, raising your voice or offering personal details. This is an office, not your living room! You not only look like a fool, but you embarrass yourself and others with this behavior. If you’re really lucky you might even have rumors spread around the office about you.
Don’t send jokes or other junk email at work to your friends or cubicle neighbors. Colleagues are at work to make money and get their job done, not read your endless jokes. Never mind being irritating, if your email gets in the wrong hands you will be perceived as a lazy worker and depending on the content of the email, could even be fired!
Never barge into a colleagues’ cubicle! Treat their space as if it was an office with a door. You would need to knock to come in whether the door was opened or closed so a cubicle should be no different. Knock on the desk or gently let the person know you are there. If they are on the phone, it is a no-brainer, don’t interrupt! I can count the times that people used to come and sit on my desk just to chat. Treat everyone’s space with respect even though you share the same office space.

The KEY to Marketing SUCCESS
How do you get testimonials for a new service?Testimonials do not need to be for a specific service, they need to be about the service provided to the client. This means the work ethic, the customer service, addressing customer wants and needs, and providing a service that gives the client return on investment. It does not matter whether the offer is a new service or not, it matters that past clients value what they have been given and they used the expertise to gain in their own knowledge and business profits.Most consultants are reluctant to ask for the

Are You Looking to Change Jobs or Just Find One?
Resume writing may seem like the most daunting task ever. It is one of the most important things you must do if you hope to get the sought after interview with the decision maker. I can still recall a time in my early twenties that a job I had taken was not working out. It was a sales job at a company a friend was a partner in. After resigning my very stable job with a fortune 100 company and moving across the country, I found out it really wasn't everything I had hoped it would be. I should have asked more questions, but I was of the mindset that I could do anything I

How to Flop in Direct Mail and Mail Order
How to Flop in Direct Mail and Mail OrderMost mail order and direct mail businesses fail. I’m going from my own experience, most of mine have failed. You can fail a lot faster if you know what you are doing. Then you can work out that new idea of yours and get rich. Here are some good ways to fail:Rely on Other People More than You Rely on YourselfYou can do this in different ways.1. Have your suppliers drop ship to your customers. Some suppliers are okay. Others are not. Choose one that steals your customer’s names and then sen

Don’t play music at your desk during working hours. This should seem like an obvious point but I’m surprised at how many people do it! With all the music we can download from online services and our own CD’s and of course the radio, many still like to feel as if they are in the comfort of their own home. If you have to listen to music, use a headset! Remember just because you enjoy what you are listening to doesn’t mean the people around you do. So, loud or not-use your ear phones.
Depending on your job role you might be given a cell phone, remember to keep the ringer on low or use the vibrate function. A common complaint in the offices I have worked in is that so-and-so’s phone rings so loud and is distracting. It is always best to use the vibrate setting.
Again, you need to remember you are not in your living room. Taking off your shoes and roaming the office in your socks, or worse- barefoot is unacceptable office behavior. Not only can it look unprofessional but it can often scare your cube-mates off with the offensive scent. And if you’ve ever thought about it-keep your pink fuzzy slippers at home where they belong!
NO belching, farting, nose picking or flossing your teeth at your desk. Believe it or not, people actually do this! I once went over to a colleagues’ desk and was completely disgusted to find him flossing his teeth! Sadly the washroom was about 6 feet away and he didn’t see what the problem was. I also encountered a colleague who sat next to me and was caught picking his nose while his friend on the other side caught him and watched for 5 minutes until she burst out laughing. This may sound funny but it is not office etiquette. The same holds true for farting and belching. Nobody wants to hear this outside of work so why do they want to listen to and smell you? Remember where you are and use the washroom if need be f

Most businesses do a very thorough job of defining their target audience for their service or product, and many have high-priced ad campaigns to reach that select group of people. From niche-specific industry journals, to focused magazines and newspapers, to locale-based promotions, a good deal of thought goes into generating interest. But does the same amount of brainstorming occur for answering questions as a result of that publication?

So ditch the shopping list right now - you can't be the best at everything - and even if you are no-one will believe you. Choose to be the best (or look the best) at ONE thing. Because as soon as you focus, your CREDIBILITY will skyrocket. You'll have instant ATTRACTION just by getting clear about who you are, what you do and who you do it for.

Tell your prospects that you offer free delivery. This may cost a little money, but, you will gain the extra customers to make up for it.
