Coming straight to the question, “Is print media relevant for retail stores in 2021?” The answer is a big YES, and it will likely never become obsolete. Print media will be relevant and valuable where there is a physical customer experience.

 

Build Reputation and Relationship

Inarguably the biggest benefit of print media advertising is that it facilities reputation development and relationship building. When you appear in a reputed newspaper or magazine, your credibility increases significantly.

 

Cost-Effective Marketing

While print advertising may not be as cheap as Google display ads, they’re still fairly inexpensive. And unlike digital strategies that require a lot of optimization, print media ads are easy to implement and execute.

 

Long Shelf Life

Long shelf life is another major benefit of print media. When you run a digital ad, there’s no guarantee that the same user will see it again.

Traditionally, marketing has been accountable for only awareness and interest, and maybe driving a little consideration. In the new paradigm, the marketing function drives sales all the way through the funnel to evaluation.

Some Marketing Functions Have Permanently Changed 

I asked the 80+ CMOs at my company, “What are your top predictions for what’s going to be permanently changed?”

How to Develop a New Marketing Strategy

If B2B business providers really want to have solid marketing execution—which is their website, SEO, and lead generation

 
The company, truly understanding its strengths The customers, what do they truly value The competition, understanding what strategies are being deployed, especially digitally 
That then informs the strategy:
How are we different?What is our unique value proposition How are we positioning ourselves against competitors? What do we need to do in pricing?How do we segment our markets? </googleplay:description><googleplay:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/f639356624fe1bbe5773de68f52a726b.jpg"/><googleplay:explicit>No</googleplay:explicit></item><item><title>A Detailed Guide for Event Management Online</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/user/succezzcoach/a-detailed-guide-for-event-management-on_2</link><description><![CDATA[Planners get access to tools that help with payments and the financial aspects of the event.

The benefit of virtual events is that you can achieve a lot on a limited budget. You don’t have to deal with issues like getting a physical location. There are no logistical elements like transportation or catering to deal with.

1. Have Clarity on the Event and Attendees

Coming up with goals and objectives for the event is critical. Why are you hosting the virtual event? What do you hope to achieve? Who is your target audience, and why would they want to attend?

2. Draw Up a Budget 

Like any other event, you will need to come up with a budget. You may not end up spending as much as you would for in-person events.

3. Decide on the Hosting Platform and Tools You Need 

Hosting a successful virtual event requires that you have the right tools. You achieve higher efficiency and can complete tasks in a short time.

4. Send Out the Invitations 

If you are working on an invite-only event, you should already have a list of the people you want to attend. Send out the invitations and start recording the RSVPs. Collecting RSVPs lets you know if you have enough resources to handle the numbers.

A brand isn’t just a way to increase sales. If you ask a digital strategy agency, they’ll tell you that a brand is just the manifestation of your own values, ideas, and inspiration in the form of marketing.

Have a Personal Presence in your Brand

Nothing helps you connect with your customers and audience more than being at the forefront of your brand.

Put Your Values at the Forefront

2020 was a huge year for brands’s recognizing the importance of putting their values on full display. Shoppers are more likely to go out and support businesses that mirror their beliefs and values.

Stand Out in Expressive Ways

We know the importance of logos and graphics, but what sets you apart as a brand? In most cases, it’s going to end up being the ways in which you express your brand’s energy or spirit through visuals.

Don’t Be Afraid to Be Weirdeople who should 

Being weird used to be an insult. Now, your brand can gain a lot from going against the current and being authentically you. If you can pinpoint a way that your brand is special or unique, lean into it!

Create an Immersive Experience for your Customers

When you put energy into your brand, you’re telling the story of your business. Your brand isn’t a means to sell your product or service.

Consumer insights are the interpretations revealed by analyzing research data that allows your business to better understand who your audiences are, what their attitudes are, and what motivates them. Consumer insights are actionable, meaning you can make changes to your marketing processes to improve conversion and retention rates.

Do not confuse consumer insights with market research, although they are similar. Market research is the effort of gathering data about your customers and provides valuable information about who your customers are and where they can be reached.

Why Consumer Insights are Important (Especially in Ecommerce)

Consumer insights are important because they allow e-commerce businesses to understand consumer thought processes and suggest actionable changes that can be implemented to improve retention and conversion rates as well as customer satisfaction.

Website analytics and data gathered from buyer behavior is a great resource for consumer insights. Google Analytics and data from your eCommerce platform (like Shopify or WooCommerce) is an easy-to-access way to gather information about how users behave on your site and what their purchase patterns look like.

Keyword research is often applied to search engine optimization (SEO) tactics, but it’s also a great way to gather insights about what people are searching for and why.

The platform jokes that it would surpass the United States as the most populous county in the world if it were a country. So, it is clear that Pinterest has a significant audience to send to your site.

Use Relevant Keywords in Your Board Names

If you’ve ever engaged in online dating, then you know you can narrow your search by using specific keywords.

Use Relevant Keywords in Your Pin Descriptions

Another place where keywords are vital is in the pin description. Again, you have to use industry-specific words if you want the pin to generate organic traffic on your website.

 

Increase Engagement 

People engagement is always key when trying to increase organic traffic. For this reason, you have to keep people engaged by constantly posting images.

Apply for Rich Pins

Rich pins contain extra information that helps pins stand out on the Pinterest feed. There are rich pins for different niches like products, travel, recipes, places, gifts, movies, and apps.

Add Pins Consistently

Repetition is the law of deep and lasting impression. So, if you want to get lots of clicks and improve organic traffic, you have to consistently keep adding pins.  People who should listen to this show are social media marketers, entrepeneurs, career coaches.</googleplay:description><googleplay:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/f639356624fe1bbe5773de68f52a726b.jpg"/><googleplay:explicit>No</googleplay:explicit></item><item><title>7 eCommerce Trends to Capitalize on Right Now</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/user/succezzcoach/7-ecommerce-trends-to-capitalize-on-righ_2</link><description><![CDATA[Voice Commerce and Search<br /><br />There have been tremendous changes in the way we have been communicating with our devices.

There have been tremendous changes in the way we have been communicating with our devices. Touch-sensitive devices are now gradually becoming obsolete, with more people turning to dictation and voice-based commands.

Chatbots for Customer Concerns and Conflict Resolutions

Companies around the world are increasingly deploying chatbots on their apps and online stores.

Immersive Technologies

When we say immersive technologies, we mean two of the most underrated and underutilized tech concepts – Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR).

The Inevitability of Analytics

One of the significant reasons why eCommerce is a phenomenon today is because of the capabilities enabled by analytics and Big Data.

Headless Commerce

This might sound a little technical, but it is unavoidable. Headless architecture is where you decouple the frontend and backend from each other.

So, when should a company outsource its sales?

You do not have an efficient in-house team

Another reason to outsource your B2B sales function is the lack of an efficient in-house team. If your sales department constantly fails to meet deadlines or is not producing positive results, it may be time to consider getting help from a professional outsourcing service provider.

You find your team overburdened

There are a lot of tasks involved in sales. Do you have enough personnel to handle each activity? Or do you have a small team that takes care of all of the company’s sales needs?

Content created at this stage is ideal for new companies who want to make potential buyers aware (hence the name) of their existence.

Organic search impressions or how many times your content appeared in SERPs (Search Engine Results Pages).

Views and reach on social media – the same as above, your content made its way under some eyes. Now, if your reach is higher than the average organic reach for a certain social media platform, you’re doing something right.

Share of Voice (SoV): this is a term borrowed from PR and extended to any measurable metric in any type of marketing tactic. It measures how often your brand shows up in search results compared to your competitors’.

 

New users on your website: when you reach new users, who’ve never heard of you before, it’s obvious that your brand awareness is on the rise.

Now let’s see how you can measure this interest:

Clicks: whether it’s clicked from SERPs or from social media, they all mean the same thing: your content is engaging and you’ve got the numbers to prove it.

Bounce rate: OK, you’ve got their interest. But for how long? Bounce rate (also measurable in Google Analytics) tells you how many of the people who clicked on your links bounced back to search results without visiting another page.

Time spent on page: most CMSs have plugins that display “read time” next to any piece of content. While it’s true that most people scan and skim content, if the average time spent on a page is much lower than the read time (a few seconds), maybe it’s time to revisit that page. </googleplay:description><googleplay:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/f639356624fe1bbe5773de68f52a726b.jpg"/><googleplay:explicit>No</googleplay:explicit></item><item><title>The Human Side of Business: Using your Personal Story in Brand Marketing</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/user/succezzcoach/the-human-side-of-business-using-your-pe_2</link><description><![CDATA[Why your story is an asset<br /><br />We live and work in an increasingly crowded world, where new competition is cropping up every day, and millions of businesses are vying for consumers' attention.<br /><br />What's your story?<br /><br />While you may think your story isn't particularly interesting, I'll just be blunt here and say: you're wrong.<br /><br />Pick the right details<br /><br />Next, go through the details that help people put themselves in your shoes. <br />Where were you when you got the idea for your company?What pushed you over the edge from having an idea to actually starting to do the work? What was the first thing you did? When did you decide to leave your job (or whatever you were doing before) and work on your company full time?<br />Ditch the rose-colored glasses<br /><br />Make sure to share the bad parts of your journey too.

2. Zoom

3. Just10

It might come off as a rather strange choice of app in this list, but let’s not form an opinion too quickly.

Today, buyers have more access to information and knowledge than ever before. They’ve read online reviews, sought advice from peers, and compared features of multiple products before they even speak to you.

3. Technology is a co-worker 

Digital-first not only transforms the traditional sales hire, it transforms co-workers. With reliance on digital selling so does the need for sales software solutions that help sales reps humanize the digital experience and close more deals.

2. We have rethought the way we work.

Another interesting takeaway from Covid-19 has been the way we have redefined what it means to "work."

Since March, we have spent a lot of time thinking about how our company is set up, how we run our offices, what kind of flexibility we've offered in the past, and in what ways we can change for the better. For example, we have never been a work-from-home type of company, but Covid-19 has really proven that, in many ways, we can be. Even though I prefer working in the office, and many other people still find value in working together in person, we have become more open to these new ways of working.

 We have increased the cadence of communication with the team.

Lastly, the importance of effective communication has never been more prevalent.

According to the recent survey, those businesses that adopted IoT initiatives have managed to boost their collaboration almost threefold. Such a seemingly trivial thing as a connected smartphone can redefine the way you cooperate with your colleagues and personnel.

Enhanced Security 

Today, many businesses avail themselves of video surveillance and access control solutions to ensure that their data and property are safeguarded against unauthorized access and theft.

Howard Stern: 

Stern is considered a radio “shock jock.” Some people love him, some people hate him, but regardless of which side you fall on, almost everyone has heard of him. He is obviously very controversial, offensive, and seldom provides what the average American would consider “quality content.”


Who is the attractive character in your business? It could be you as the business owner, it could be a customer, a case study, or someone who used your product or service and benefited from it.

First – Your Handle or Tag Line 

The first element is that your character needs to have some sort of “handle.” A handle is basically your tagline. A tag line is fairly important to a lot of people in brand marketing.

Second – Your Back Story 

The second important element in creating an attractive character is to include some type of back story for the character.

Fourth – Character Flaws 

I’ve found that it is also effective to share your own character flaws with your audience.

If you're like me, the result may be that you try to start marketing in the most impersonal ways possible, like running Facebook and Google Ads, to avoid the prospect of face-to-face rejection.<br /><br /> Small scale marketing is personal, and people like personal. They increasingly want to support small businesses over giant behemoths. They want to know who's behind the products they buy and what drives them<br /><br />Farmers' markets, craft fairs, and other events<br /><br />Setting up a table and pitching your wares to folks passing by is the essence of starting small. Depending on what type of product or service you're selling, farmers' markets might work, or there may be less frequent events that are more domain-specific (for example, if you're starting a sportswear company, many marathons have vendor villages). <br /><br />People come to these types of events specifically to see what's out there, so the fact that you're a new brand that they haven't heard of is intriguing, not off-putting.

Farmers' markets, craft fairs, and other events

Setting up a table and pitching your wares to folks passing by is the essence of starting small.

Establish a routine and set goals

Having a routine will help keep you on track. If you start working on your side hustle every evening after dinner, you'll train your mind that after dinner, it's time for work—not time to scroll yourself down another rabbit hole. When your side hustle is part of your routine, it will feel less like a drain on your resources.

Set up processes and automate

It can be tempting to do everything yourself: we sometimes make the mistake of valuing money over time. But time is also a limited commodity. And a side hustle in particular means limited time. Your focus should be on the activities that fulfill you and generate revenue. 

Ask for feedback

A side hustle is a great opportunity for you to do something you love. But, as with any skill, it will take time before you've mastered your craft.

Think long-term

Side hustles don't turn into income-generating businesses overnight. 

With this in mind, you need to play the long game. Ask yourself if your current habits and routine can be sustained for several years—or more. As with any business, your actions have to be guided by a long-term strategy that should motivate you to keep going even when faced with adversity.

What Is Market Segmentation?

Before we get into that, it’s important to understand what a “market” is. It is the group of people/organizations that make up a pool that has the ability to purchase/consume goods and services. These could be actual or potential customers.

What Is Behavioral Segmentation?

As technology and brand awareness advance, customer profiles undergo dramatic changes and economic realities fluctuate, market segmentation becomes more fine-tuned.

Benefits of Behavioral Segmentation

1. Smaller, well-defined sections: Instead of a large and unwieldy mass of customers, behavioral segmentation creates smaller and more homogeneous groups based on certain shared characteristics.

2. Needs: Behavioral data can be analyzed to extract certain needs and preferences. Consistent behavior observed over a specific period of time helps you to understand the group/individual’s requirements better and to cater to them appropriately.

3. Building brand loyalty: Repeat customers and loyal customers can show the strength and impact of your brand. This helps to create sturdy, enduring and sustainable brands that can survive market fluctuations.

Today we make resolutions centered on improving our lot in life. We vow to lose weight, eat better, get more exercise, write that novel, spend less time on social media, and leave those pesky bad habits behind.



The truth is that the success of our resolutions really depends on understanding that the very act of making a promise to ourselves is not only an act of intention, but a transaction with the laws of manifestation

 

1. Shelve the Shoulds

When I begin coaching with someone who is making New Years’ resolutions, the first thing we do together is sort out the “shoulds” from the “wants.” There’s a difference.

 

Perhaps you can see the irony here.

Shelve the shoulds. Shoulds won’t help you no matter how valid they are. Instead, begin your resolutions with wants. If you really want to see some change, ask yourself this question: “What is my heart’s desire?”

 

2. The Universe Rewards Action

Small deeds done are greater than great deeds planned. 

~Peter Marshall

There’s no getting around it: nothing will change the way you want it to without you doing something about it. And this is where things get a little difficult, right? Good intentions are a dime a dozen

Developing your 2021 marketing the strategy doesn’t have to be done at once. Check out these seven steps to follow.
Assess your 2020 goals.Confirm your marketing and business objective alignment.Redefine your audience (or not).Find the best performing content.Repurpose and update existing content and campaigns.Determine what new channels and tactics to test.Ensure authenticity in your messaging.
1. Assess your 2020 goals

 

Your first step should be to revisit your initial 2020 marketing strategy compared to your goals and overall performance. While the year isn’t quite over, you can determine how effective you were in the first three quarters.

2. Confirm your marketing and business objective alignment

Too often, entrepreneurs or business leaders prioritize marketing just to check it off the list, and they aren’t sure why. They think, “every business is supposed to have a social media presence, right?”

3. Redefine your audience (or not)

Who engages with your posts? Who opens your newsletters? Who finds your blog posts organically and reads the entire thing? The answer: your target audience.

 

 Find the best performing content

While you’re looking back, review your social media posts and website content to discover your shining stars, i.e., best performing or most popular content.

Digital marketing, specifically, refers to 'Achieving marketing objectives through applying digital technologies and media.'

The challenges of digital marketing

In my experience, a common challenge is where to start drawing up your digital marketing plan. I think there is a fear that a massive report is required, but we believe that lean planning works best.

1. You're directionless

I find that companies without a digital strategy (and many that do) don't have a clear strategic goal for what they want to achieve online in terms of gaining new customers or building deeper relationships with existing ones.

2.  You won't know your online audience or market share

Customer demand for online services may be underestimated if you haven"t researched this. Perhaps, more importantly, you won't understand your online marketplace: the dynamics will be different from traditional channels with different types of customer profile and behavior, competitors, propositions, and options for marketing communications.

4. You don't have a powerful online value proposition

A clearly defined digital value proposition tailored to your different target customer personas will help you differentiate your online service encouraging existing and new customers to engage initially and stay loyal. You're not integrated ("disintegrated")

3. Be Willing To Be Uncomfortable

The truth is, most people have trouble stepping outside their comfort zone. When we hit a roadblock or an obstacle, we assume that we’re doing something wrong.

4. What You Focus On Expands

Have you ever met the kind of person who can’t seem to stop complaining about everything that’s wrong with their life?

5. Your Word Must Become Law

It’s time to be honest, and the answer to this question may make you cringe. But how often do you start projects and never finish them?

6. Be A Great Money Manager

Do you have a system for managing your money?

If you aren’t making as much as you’d like yet, it may seem easy to write the idea off. You just tell yourself you’ll think about it later when you have extra money to budget.

My goal, when we create ANY funnel, is to get to break even. If I can spend $1 in advertising, and then make $1 out the other side of the funnel… then I’ve won! When I have a funnel that can break even on COLD traffic (not to my existing list) – then I KNOW that I have the tool I need to grow that company.

Understanding the stages of an online sales funnel

This marketing system was so named because, in diagram form, it looks like a funnel.

From the time your prospects get to know you until the moment they make a purchase decision, they go through a series of stages.

Stage 1: Awareness

Awareness stage (on top of the funnel) is the biggest one and contains the largest number of people.

This stage is composed of leads, people who land on your website either by chance or in need of your product/services.

Stage 2: Interest

At this stage, the prospect has already landed on your page and is actively looking for solutions to their problems.

They express interest in your products/services. They may take actions such as subscribing to your email list or even follow you on social media.

Stage 3: Decision

At this stage, the prospects are deciding on whether to make a buying decision.

They’ll pay close attention to what you offer, plans, and pricing, then perform a comparative analysis with what your competitors are offering.

Stage 4: Action

At this stage, the prospects decide to become a customer by buying from you.

2. Keystone pricing: a simple markup formula

Keystone pricing is a pricing strategy retailers use as an easy rule of thumb.

Manufacturer suggested retail price

As its name suggests (no pun intended), the manufacturer suggested retail price (MSRP) is the price a manufacturer recommends retailers use when selling a product.

We’ve all done this: we walk into a store lured by the promise of a discount on a hot-ticket product, but instead of walking away with only that product in hand, we end up purchasing several others as well.

They don’t yet see that what happens comes from them…<br /><br />...from their map of reality, from what they focus on, from their internal and external strategies for dealing with life. Unfortunately, most people operate from automatic, pre-programmed responses (what I refer to as “running on autopilot”).<br /><br />They have rules or set procedures for what to think, what to feel, and what to do in various situations—rules or procedures they learned when they were too young to know any better…<br /><br />...and these responses happen automatically, like Pavlov’s dog salivating when it hears the bell.<br /><br />If I were to look inside your mind, I believe I would see the three things you want most from life:<br />To be happyTo be peaceful insideTo be successful in the world<br /> <br /><br />The cyclone derives its power from a calm center.

To be happyTo be peaceful insideTo be successful in the world

This concept reflects a universal principle that I call, “Conscious Change,” which will help you deal effectively with disruptive, unexpected or otherwise or unsettling changes. In fact, Conscious Change is both…

You can either start off with a massive bang and get instant momentum and sales… or you can start off slow and then fade away from there.

 

Step 1: Turn Your Marketing into an Event

OK, the first mistake most people make is they don’t actually plan their launch. Instead they rely on what I call “Hope Marketing”… that’s where you work really hard to get your product ready, and then you simply release it.

People that should listen to this show are entrepreneurs

 

Step 2: Use a Prelaunch Sequence to Build Anticipation

Your prelaunch sequence is the secret sauce that builds anticipation… this is a series of free prelaunch content that you release over a period of seven to ten days

 

Step 3: Leverage the Power of Conversation

Conversations are a lot more interesting than monologues. When you shift your marketing from a lecture or monologue, and you start engaging your prospects in a conversation… then you instantly become a lot more engaging.

 

Step 4: Tap into Joint Venture Partners

One of the fastest ways to turbocharge your business is to tap into the power of “other people’s lists”… in other words, you find Joint Venture partners who already have built a list of people that would be interested in your product or service.

 

Step 5: Opening and Closing Your Launch

Of course, the whole point of your launch is to make sales.</googleplay:description><googleplay:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/f639356624fe1bbe5773de68f52a726b.jpg"/><googleplay:explicit>No</googleplay:explicit></item><item><title>How to Start an Ecommerce Business – A Step-by-Step Guide</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/user/succezzcoach/how-to-start-an-ecommerce-business-a-ste_2</link><description><![CDATA[Step 1: Research the eCommerce space and find your niche.<br /><br />The first step in learning how to start an E-commerce business is performing the necessary research.<br /><br /> <br /><br />Step 2: Select your business name and choose a legal structure.<br /><br />Once you’ve solidified the plan for your E-commerce business, the next step is to choose a name.<br /><br /> <br /><br />Step 3: Apply for an EIN.<br /><br />Next, you’ll want to apply for an EIN, or employer identification number, for your e-commerce business.

Step 2: Select your business name and choose a legal structure.

Once you’ve solidified the plan for your E-commerce business, the next step is to choose a name.

 

Step 3: Apply for an EIN.

Next, you’ll want to apply for an EIN, or employer identification number, for your e-commerce business. Although not all business entity types are required to have an EIN, this nine-digit the number can be useful to help you separate your personal and business finances.

 

Step 4: Obtain business permits and licenses.

After you’ve applied for your EIN, you’ll now want to obtain any business licenses or permits you need to operate legally within your city and state.

There are three levels to what I’m talking about:

Level 1: The lowest level is living in your mind, where your mind is automatically and unconsciously creating a hallucination you believe to be a reality.


Level 2: The second level is one where you’re still creating a hallucination, but at least it’s the hallucination you intend to create.


Level 3: In the third level, you’re not taking the internal map created by the mind to be a reality, and you realize that this map involves pretending that there are separate things and separate events,

 

Cause vs. Trigger

What is the difference between a cause that leads to response and a trigger that leads to a response?

If there is more than one possible response, if different people respond in different ways to the same stimulus, the stimulus is a trigger.

Remote Work Tip No. 2: Reduce Distractions

From your comfy couch and a nostalgic Fuller House binge-watching session, to playing with your pet pug, there can be endless distractions when you work from home.

 

Remote Work Tip No. 4: Utilize Tools

Whether you’re tech-oriented or old-school, play around with time management systems to discover what works for you.

Remote Work Tip No. 5: Plan Interaction

Remember that remote work is not synonymous with becoming a hermit. Socializing is vital to your mental health and your career.

Develop a Routine

Being productive during your workday takes some planning, and a lack of structure can lead to feeling aimless, overwhelmed, or on-call 24/7.

One thing that highly abundant and wealthy people do well is to keep their energetic vibration high

1: Know that money is an expression of your own energy

Every time you consciously receive, spend or give money, you’re reflecting on how you view and feel about wealth.

2: Be aware of your words and thoughts

Did you know that every time you speak negatively about your financial situation or act with scarcity, you lower your vibration?

3: Put your health before wealth

Ralph Waldo Emerson once said ‘Health is our greatest wealth’, and I’ve certainly found this to be true.

The key to writing a book – or anything else of value – is to “Just Write!”

Writing is one thing that you cannot get worse at by doing it.

It doesn’t matter if you’re regularly creating blogs and emails or if you’re brand new.

Be An Expert

You must be an expert on your subject and know ten words for every one word you write.

Readers will know if you’re making things up.

For instance, if you want to write on success, you must already be successful.

Expand Your Knowledge

Confidence is an important thing to demonstrate with your written words.

If you feel unsure about your topic, the ideas you present and how you structure your arguments, your audience may not believe you.

Find Your Passion

While it’s something that ANYONE can do, writing a book is very difficult.

There’s one way to make the process more challenging: Write about something that doesn’t interest you.

No Office=No Stress? Not Quite

Having established the benefits of remote working, it’s important for organisations to identify which employees would thrive in this situation. Most employees would view working from home as the opportunity to work stress-free, but recent research conducted by researchers at Baylor University suggests otherwise.

Work From Home Is Here To Stay

Whether your company embraces it or not, remote working is growing at a remarkable rate. A study released by Switzerland-based serviced office provider IWG in May 2018 found that 70 per cent of professionals work remotely at least one day a week, while 53 per cent work remotely for at least half of the week.

Stick to a schedule

One of the most wonderful things about working from home is that you get to enjoy the comfort of your home all day.

 

2. Give yourself space

Don't let your dining room table become the source for stacked papers, folders - or God forbid, a printer.

A dedicated workspace (ideally one you where you can close the door) is a solid way to keep work and life separate – and ensure you're not constantly reminded of your deadlines while sitting down for dinner. 

 

3. Look the part 

When you work from home, appearing professional can be just as important as when you work in a traditional office. (Also, it's 2020, and there's simply no excuse for a poorly lit video conference with bad audio.)

It's also one of the most dangerous things about working from home. 

Consider beginning and ending work at the same time each day – the way you would if you were at the office. This will help you separate professional time and personal time – and make it easier to detach both emotionally and physically at the end of the day. You can even log your day and daily tasks if that helps you.

 

4. Build boundaries

When it comes to working from home, I often encourage people to "build" and not "set" boundaries – because it's truly a process. 

It took me years to figure out that even though I work from home, I don't have to answer an email at 9:00 p.m. when I'm sitting on the couch with my husband watching This Is Us. (Trust me, I'm way too fragile to respond to anything after that show anyway.)

To start off, a recession usually brings about an acceleration in business model change, driving down costs to serve and prices.

Supply chains will merge into resilient ecosystems

Global supply chains have long been geared towards keeping quality relatively constant while driving lower costs at every step. This has resulted in significant concentration risk in terms of geographies and vendors for most companies. For example, China scaling down due to Covid-19 and creating a knock-on supply impacts we are seeing today has exposed the lack of resilience in this approach. There is a sharp need for a more distributed, coordinated and trackable supply of components across multiple geographies and vendors while maintaining economies of scale.

Mental health support will be provided at scale, digitally

It is straight forward to predict that the Covid-19 is going to be an accelerant for remote working as well as online education.

Your email list is the lifeblood of your business.

With email, you can keep in contact with previous clients, promote your new products and services, and fill your events by marketing directly to people who are already interested in what you are selling.

Facebook Groups

If you have your own Facebook group, create a post asking your group members to join your email list.

If you don’t have your own Facebook group, you can look for potential subscribers in other people’s Facebook groups.

Your Personal Facebook Account

Last but not least, you may be able to leverage your personal Facebook account to add a few additional subscribers to your list.

If you see a Facebook friend struggling with a problem that your business can solve, feel free to send them a message.

4 Ways of Building an Email List with Facebook (Without Ads)

1. Engage Your Followers.

Engagement equals conversion.

If you don’t engage with your followers, you can’t expect them to sign up for your email list or purchase your paid offers.

Before you can manage and own your time, you must first measure it.

2. Follow the Perfect Week Formula to End Overwhelm and Live Your Perfect Life TODAY 

As an entrepreneur or high-performer, not only are you a master of your craft, but you gain a massive sense of meaning, purpose, and fulfillment from your work.

And this is great.

In a society where an estimated 87% of people are “actively disengaged” with their work (source), it’s no small feat to love what you do.

3. Use THIS Grid to Work 10 Fewer Hours Each Week 

Most entrepreneurs I know don’t struggle with time management so much as task management.

It’s not that they don’t have enough time to do the things they need to do. It’s that they are doing too much and creating unnecessary overwhelm by believing the lie that they have to “do it all.”

4. Understand the Price of Gold

One of the greatest threats to your success, fulfillment, and ability to own your time is the negative approval of others. 

I call this concept the “Price of Gold” and it goes like this…

As human beings, we are all hard wired to seek validation. Our 200,000 year old brains learned a long time ago that validation and approval equals safety and disapproval means death.

You’re on a plane, flying out to complete a consultation with a client you recently closed. After sitting down in your chair and watching the safety briefing (you’ve seen hundreds of times before), you hear a voice crackling over the intercom.

2. Never Lower Your Expectations, Shift Your Strategy 

It’s ‘normal’ to experience downtimes in your business. Months where the revenue drops off inexplicably. Seasons where, due to the appearance of Santa and all his elves, customers just don’t buy the way they normally do.

And during these months it’s equally ‘normal’ to lower your expectations and strap yourself in for a few bumpy months.

But here’s the thing…

I know that you don’t want to be normal. You don’t want to have a normal life or a normal business. You want to build an empire. 

3. Be a Creator, Not a Consumer 

One of my favorite sayings of 2020 is: “You must stop using social media and start using business media.”

Too many people waste their lives scrolling and double tapping their days away on Instagram or Facebook when they could be building an empire and leaving a legacy.

4. Choose Pain and Discipline Today to Achieve Freedom Tomorrow

Jim Rohn, one of the fathers of the personal development industry once said:

“We must all suffer one of two types of pain. The pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is that discipline weighs ounces and regret weighs tons.”

2. 10X Your Thinking In Every Area of Life 

Peter Diamindis, the founder of XPrize has a simple question that he asks every company before he invests with them and it goes like this: 

“If you had to achieve your ten year goals in the next six months…how would you do it?”

3. It is Your Duty and Obligation to Provide Your Solution to the World 

Right now, somewhere in the world, someone is feeling alone, hopeless, and depressed–and crying themselves to sleep because of a problem they are facing in their life.

A problem that you can help them solve.

4. Make Time for What Matters and GSD 

I’m going to let you in on a little “secret.” 

You will never “find time” for the things that matter most. More time isn’t hiding under the bed next to the ab roller (you never use) or tucked away in the pantry behind the cookies (you shouldn’t have bought).

The first way to reclaim control of your life and fix your broken relationship with social media is by eliminating social media during early morning hours.

Despite the fact that I have almost 50,000 followers on Instagram, I only follow 13 people.

To use social media effectively, you must use it on your time. 

Turn your notifications off.

Use THIS Referral Script to Turn Happy Customers into Lead Generating Machines

Every entrepreneur “knows” that they should be asking for referrals.

But there are two problems:

1.     Most of them don’t

2.     And those who do have no idea how to do so effectively.

Step 1: Set the Expectation

During your first call, meeting, or interaction with a new client, you want to set the expectation that you’re going to be asking for a small favor in the future.

Step 2: MEET the Expectation

Once you’ve have set the expectation, the next step in the referral machine system is to meet the expectation that has been set, typically over a 6-8-week timeline.

Step 3: ASK for the Referral

Once you have set and met your client’s expectation, the next step is to ASK for the referral.

2. Remember – The Money is in the Follow-Up

What if I told you that you could generate 20% more revenue in your business this week, without:

·        Investing in expensive marketing campaigns

·        Buying media

·        Hiring a PR agency or out of house marketing team3. Harden Up—Your Offer

After working with hundreds of entrepreneurs, I’ve noticed that so many people are trying to sell soft or “unsellable” offers.

Or rather, that they are making their offers unsellable by positioning them in the wrong way.

2. Ask Your Staff for Help

If you want to keep your people working as long as possible, and get them back to work as quickly as possible…you must ask them for help.

3. Hustle – America (and the World) is Still Open for Business

No one has welded shut the cash registers of the world. Sales are still being made. Online shopping is happening – even for businesses otherwise decimated by foot traffic restrictions.

4. Work Harder and Longer Hours

One politically incorrect truth generated from this crisis is that too many of us have gone soft.

I’m hearing from too many people that they are burned out working six days in a row.

5. Cut Out the News and Use Your Free Time to Make More Offers

First, stop watching the news.

There’s nothing on CNN or FOX News, or in the NY Times or the Kansas City Star that can save your business. In fact, those stations are nothing but cancer for the mind and a threat to America with the divisive content created solely for ratings.

Be Crystal Clear on Your Vision and Brand

Imagine we bumped into each other on an elevator today… could you tell me, in under 60-seconds, what your brand stands for and what your vision is?

If the answer is “No”, this is exactly why you’re struggling to attract the right people to your team.

 

 

2. Be Ruthless and Politically Incorrect in Your Job Ads

One of my “secrets” to finding and keeping amazing employees on my team is something I call my “politically incorrect job ad”.

 

 

3. Embrace The “Hiring Grind” 

I was recently asked, “How long does it take to get good at hiring?”

My honest answer?

Forever.

 

4. Use This Secret to Conduct a Stunning Interview

If you want to find the best people for your team, this interview process is how you’ll do it.

Start by going to your Tribe, wherever they hang out. Advertise your open position via podcast, your email list, your Instagram stories, everywhere.

 

 

5. The #1 Question to Determine When You Should Fire

Here’s a simple question that will let you know in 3-seconds whether or not you should let someone on your team go.

You ready?

 

6. How to Fire Gracefully

Firing employees can be one of the most stressful tasks a business owner can handle, but I promise it will only make progress toward your ultimate vision that much slower if you try to force a relationship that isn’t working.

My formula for setting your minimal hourly rate for freelancing or consulting services

For this formula to be useful to you, let’s define each element and see what should be in it, so nothing remains hidden.


Estimated Annual Taxes = your federal, state, and local income taxes including self-employment taxes, without forgetting to consider all your business deductions.

 

Charging by the Project

Charging by the hour has two big drawbacks. First, it sets you and your client up in such a way that your interests don’t align. As an hourly freelancer, you get paid more if you take more time to get the job done.

 

Top-Down Strategic Pricing

The most important thing when pricing your services is that you have to be solving a problem that the client wants solved.

Flip the Switch and Become a “Go Giver” 

 The first step to building your life-changing network is to flip a switch in your mind…

Right now, you probably go into networking events, seminars, and masterminds thinking, “How can I get, get, get?”

 

2. Increase Your “Market Value” By Developing Your High Income Skills 

Once you’ve become a go-giver, it’s time to develop High-Income Skills (H.I.S.).

 

3. Establish Your Critical Credibility and Manufacture Celebrity 

When I was 25-years-old, I was a broke, struggling, introverted binge-drinking personal trainer. I had a lot to work on at the time, but I was fortunate that I had developed the High-Income Skill of content and copywriting.

 

4. Become a Connection Conduit 

The final “secret” to building a billion-dollar Rolodex is to leverage the compound effect by making connections and introductions inside of your network.

Your network is not for you to hoard. It adds value to your life, but you need to use it to bring value to others.

 

Whether it’s email copywriting, doing videos, becoming a great speaker, writing video sales letters, or simply being able to sell…Figure out where your unique talents lie and how you can develop them to add life changing value to other people.

The first entrepreneurial archetype is what I call “The Dreamer”. 

You have a big vision…you’re going to be a millionaire, write that best-seller, have a 6-figure product launch… 

…BUT you aren’t taking action on that vision.

 

Entrepreneurial Archetype #4: The Empire Builder

Imagine the greatest rulers in human history…the Pharaohs of Egypt, Emperors of Rome, Kings and Queens of Europe… 

Think about the monuments they built, the cities they created, and the impact they had that still continues to this day. 

Now let me ask you… 

Do you think any of those rulers were out there doing the heavy lifting to build the pyramids, cathedrals, and castles for which they are known? 

Of course not! 

 

Entrepreneurial Archetype #2: The Lost Warrior

I’ve only been to the ER a few times in my life and most of those times were in my early 30s when my anxiety was so bad I thought I was having a heart attack. 

I was living a hypocritical lifestyle as a personal trainer, telling people how to change their lives and bodies while partying, binge drinking, and working 15+ hour days.

 

 

Entrepreneurial Archetype #5: The Titan

Finally, after building your Empire for years or even decades, you’re ready to graduate to the final entrepreneurial archetype…The Titan. 

Titan’s are entrepreneurs who are no longer building empires, but expanding them.

Chet Holmes – a legendary business consultant and strategic coach – taught us a great lesson when he said, “Only 7% of any marketplace is actually thinking about making a purchase at any one time.“

2. Give WAY More Calls To Action (Like, A Lot More)

Chances are your business has a presence online and you post content on social media, your podcast, YouTube, or you write regular blogs. 

Quick question – do you make a call to action at LEAST twice in every piece of content you publish? 

3. Double-Down On Your Best Payday

Growing your business by 20% doesn’t mean you need to do 20% more ‘things’. 

More often than not, it just means doubling down on the 2-3 things that are already working.

4. Use The Two Most Powerful Words In Business

Most people who hear your offer or pitch are skeptical…

(Notice how I didn’t use the word ‘cynical’ there?)

They don’t believe the kind of results you CAN deliver are actually possible – and that’s totally normal and understandable.

5. Create A High-Ticket Offer

Every potential customer has a preference for how they want to achieve their goals.

I’m a big believer that success is simple…once you accept how hard it is. 

And one of the simplest (and most powerful) habits you can adopt to 10X your success and make your first million faster than you ever thought possible is to strategically plan your days, weeks, and months.

2. They Delegate Aggressively and Focus on Their “Area of Genius” 

One of the easiest ways to rapidly increase your income and make your first million is to eliminate all of the tasks, activities, and obligations that you do not need to do.

3. They Know Their Magic Time (And Max It Out)

Your magic time is the time of the day when your focus, intention, willpower, and motivation are at their highest. When you’re 3-5X more productive than any other time of the day. 

4. They Take Massive (Imperfect) Action

During our Unstoppable Mastermind meeting last week, my good friend Maddy Fryer delivered a fireball presentation on the power of mindset.

5. They Flex Their “Decisiveness Muscle” 

Former Secretary of State, Colin Powell, a man whose daily decisions literally affected millions of people was once asked how he was able to make so many decisions so quickly.

take another mental step back…

What were your worst experiences of 2019? And how can you reduce them in 2020, or eliminate them altogether?

2. “If I had to achieve my ten-year goals in the next six months, how would I do it?”

Peter Thiel asks this question, made famous by Tim Ferriss’s book The Tools of Titans, of every Founder and CEO who comes to him for funding. 

3. “If money were no object, how would I spend my time? What would I do differently than I’m doing right now?”

All too often, we defer doing the things we really want to do until we hit a certain level of financial success. 

But here’s the thing… 

Most of the things you REALLY want to do (spend more time with family/friends, travel more, learn a new language, instrument, etc.) are all readily available NOW, regardless of your financial level.

4. “What problems am I facing in my life that I can spend money to solve?” 

There’s an old saying, “What got you here won’t get you there.” 

And it’s true. 

What gets most entrepreneurs to the “promised land” of 6 or 7-figure success is simple. They work hard for long hours every single day.

Solo traveler bookings shot up 42% over the past two years.

U.S. freelancers jumped by 8.1% over the last three years.

 

 

1. Acquire a skill you love

This is the foundation of your career and will serve you for the rest of your life. A skill you love is the asset you will use to help others succeed, which is the foundation of business.

 

 

2. Create things and fail (a lot)

When I told a friend about the importance of failure, he asked a clarifying question, “But the goal isn’t failure, right?” It’s true. It’s not. Nobody wants to fail, but failure means something completely different to an entrepreneur.

 

3. Make big asks

Big asks accelerate your career.

A big ask is an audacious, bold proposal to do something that outsizes your current capacity to do it. A big ask could take the form of an email, a conversation, a phone call, a tweet, or a direct message over social. It could easily get rejected or ignored. But if it goes through, it could change the course of your career forever.

2. If You Want To Change The Fruits, First Change The Roots 

This may not make a lot of sense at first, but picture a tree in an orchard.

3. Be Willing To Be Uncomfortable

The truth is, most people have trouble stepping outside their comfort zone.

5. Your Word Must Become Law

It’s time to be honest, and the answer to this question may make you cringe. But how often do you start projects and never finish them?

4. What You Focus On Expands

Have you ever met the kind of person who can’t seem to stop complaining about everything that’s wrong with their life? You probably have.

6. Be A Great Money Manager

Do you have a system for managing your money?

If you aren’t making as much as you’d like yet, it may seem easy to write the idea off. You just tell yourself you’ll think about it later when you have extra money to budget.

Any time one of my clients tells me that they’re struggling to find or close new leads, I always ask them one question…

2. Get Even More Referrals from Partners and “Competitors”

After tapping into your existing client base to find new clients, turn your sights toward partners AND competitors–individuals or businesses in the same industry but that offer complimentary services (e.g. a relationship coach and a business coach) but that might also have under-served customers.

3. Use My Instagram Social Story Selling System 

In 2018, I made more money from Instagram than I did from any other platform including my email list (although we still did pretty well there).

How did I do this?

 

4. Stretch Your Content as Far as It Will Go 


One of the biggest mistakes that I see online entrepreneurs making in 2019 is that they fail to leverage their content to its fullest capacity.

Here’s what I mean…

 

5. Use Email to Build Relationships and Close Deals With Existing Leads 

It’s been said that, in 2019, email is dead.

The truth is that “bad” email is dead.

Good email still works… great!

6. Create a Free Facebook Group 

One of the more underrated strategies for quickly finding new leads and increasing your revenue–despite what you might have heard–is to create a free Facebook group and offer massive value to your members.

A lot of people, myself included tend to fall in love with their own business ideas and think their ideas are unique and will change the world.

I’m sure you wish to work with people you have some chemistry with. You will want to work with people whose values align with yours.

I used to think that starting a business is only about giving more money. Truth is, it’s all about giving. You can start by giving something to someone for free.

Most of us grew up being told that if you couldn’t get a degree in an “interest” or hobby, it won’t make you successful.

 

MYTH 3 — “You can only have one passion, and you need to stick to it no matter what.”

Most people think there’s only one overarching passion you can have in life.

 

MYTH 4 — “If you’re living your passion and purpose, you never have to work a day in your life!”

Just because you’re doing something you care about and love doing, doesn’t mean running a business is easy!

I mean — duh, you want a side hustle because you want to make some money. What other reason?<br /><br /> <br /><br /> <br /><br />Think about every job you’ve ever had. Every scrap of experience you’ve gained over the course of your life. Even if you’ve never had a job before, you’ve probably had life experiences that translate into marketable skills.<br /><br />Here are some thinking points to get you started.<br />What were you good at in high school?What did you study in college (even if it was just one community college class)?What jobs have you had?Do you speak a language other than English?Are you strong and healthy?

Side hustle refers to freelancing, the gig economy (driving for Uber or Lyft, renting space via Airbnb, working for a food delivery service, etc.), selling online, small community-based businesses (like babysitting and dogwalking) and pretty much any kind of home-based self-employment.

 

 

Here’s my formula for finding out you next side hustle, developed after twenty-five years of living it.

Figure Out Your What and Why

You might think you know this already. I mean — duh, you want a side hustle because you want to make some money. What other reason?

 

 

Think about every job you’ve ever had. Every scrap of experience you’ve gained over the course of your life. Even if you’ve never had a job before, you’ve probably had life experiences that translate into marketable skills.

Here are some thinking points to get you started.
What were you good at in high school?What did you study in college (even if it was just one community college class)?What jobs have you had?Do you speak a language other than English?Are you strong and healthy? (This is a skill! Write it down.)What do you know how to do well?What do you have a knack for?What do your friends ask for your help with?What are you always asked for your advice about?Take a look at your bookshelf. What have you studied on your own?Do you have a family business?Think about your past experiences.

Step 1: Turn Your Marketing into an Event


OK, the first mistake most people make is they don’t actually plan their launch. Instead they rely on what I call “Hope Marketing”…

Step 2: Use a Prelaunch Sequence to Build Anticipation


Your prelaunch sequence is the secret sauce that builds anticipation… this is a series of free prelaunch content that you release over a period of seven to ten days.

Step 3: Leverage the Power of Conversation


Conversations are a lot more interesting than monologues

Step 4: Tap into Joint Venture Partners


One of the fastest ways to turbocharge your business is to tap into the power of “other people’s lists”… in other words,

Step 5: Opening and Closing Your Launch


Of course, the whole point of your launch is to make sales.

Visionary mindset 

Successful entrepreneurs spend a significant amount of time thinking, creating and visioning. Being innovative comes naturally to all of us if we can discipline ourselves to enjoy the process of being in constant discovery.

 

Embrace the day early 

The most effective entrepreneurs are early risers -- they support the belief that the early bird gets the worm. They start their day visualizing what they want to achieve and speak affirmations of success over their mindset

 

Scheduled 

One of the easiest ways successful entrepreneurs increase effectiveness is by being scheduled.

 

Honor the power of sleep 

To be effective, successful entrepreneurs appreciate the importance of sleep.

 

Simplicity 

Simplicity is the secret weapon successful entrepreneurs swear by to increase their effectiveness. They live nearly obsessively by simple yet practical routines.



One of the easiest ways to increase effectiveness is to develop the habit of journaling

Flexible 

As important as routine is, successful entrepreneurs also understand how imperative it is that they’re flexible enough to pivot on demand in response to unforeseen or changing circumstances.

1. The notion of the workplace will become increasingly fuzzy

Historically, how and where we live has been dictated by where we work.  5G and XR will allow many of us to perform almost any aspect of our jobs,

 

2. Specialists—and even executives—may work for multiple employers

Surgeons or other medical specialists who are currently tied to a hospital or physician’s practice and limited to a single geographical area could conceivably be employed by many hospitals or practices around the world.

 

3. Working virtually could be as good as or better than being there

That Seattle-based manager of the Vietnam manufacturing facility will be able to do a realistic walk-through of the plant in real time and examine any aspect of its operations, at any level of detail.

4. Ruthlessly Productive

Productivity is one of the most misunderstood terms on the planet. When most people think about productivity, they think about doing more, about cramming more projects into their schedule, finding ways to do things faster, and being more efficient.

Yet so many go it alone.


2) They do not have a mission statement and core values: If you do not have a mission statement that you can share with your employees, colleagues and vendors, you are leaving money on the table.


3) They keep bad employees: Unfortunately many entrepreneurs have a hard time firing employees. But keeping a bad employee is like spreading a disease.


4) They hire too fast: I see this all the time. Entrepreneurs need someone to help out so they hire fast and most of the time it is the wrong person.


5) They do NOT follow through: This encompasses everything from product development to marketing to business relations. I cannot tell you how many times I have had “colleagues” call me or email me ask me to either collaborate on a project, be a guest on a teleseminar or interview me for podcast and I agree to help or collaborate and then THEY do not follow through.

You see, Uncle Tony was my granddad’s brother. My grandparents died when I was very young, so Uncle Tony and Aunt Tillie became our grandparents.

They were special people and favorite babysitters to my siblings and me

 

 

My Dad was so grateful for those last days, but the regret we felt leaving the hospital – all those lost years and the needless sorrow – was overwhelming. I wish I could have helped my dad change his mind sooner.

The desire to make a difference is still with me. When Uncle Tony was dying, I didn’t really have the experience or knowledge to help. All I could do was beg my dad to join me at the hospital and hope for the best. That’s what has led to my intense personal desire to find the right resources and the right people.

It has now turned into a personal drive to make sure working moms have the foundation for a prosperous, purposeful, and happy life. Because I don’t want anybody – moms, kids, husbands, anybody – to feel the grief my dad and I felt.

Why Do We Make the Choices We Do?

Even after Uncle Tony had passed away, you can imagine how hard it was to ask my dad about what had happened. As much as I wanted to understand the why and the how, bringing up that old family squabble was too much like picking at a scab.

The Future Model for Building Wealth

The internet revolutionized how we interact, exchange, and do business.

Within seconds, I can send a message to either one individual or thousands of individuals (whether it gets received is another conversation).

In today’s landscape, all you need is an idea (ideally one that helps solve a market problem). After you have an idea, a computer and the internet can help you do the rest:

2. Get Even More Referrals from Partners and “Competitors”

After tapping into your existing client base to find new clients, turn your sights toward partners AND competitors–individuals or businesses in the same industry but that offer complimentary services (e.g. a relationship coach and a business coach) but that might also have under-served customers. 

3. Use My Instagram Social Story Selling System 

In 2018, I made more money from Instagram than I did from any other platform including my email list (although we still did pretty well there).

How did I do this?

 

4. Stretch Your Content as Far as It Will Go 

One of the biggest mistakes that I see online entrepreneurs making in 2019 is that they fail to leverage their content to its fullest capacity.

Here’s what I mean…

When I create a video for Instagram TV, I don’t just create a video for IG TV.

The Landing Page

There’s a super easy way to know if your landing page is converting. Look at the stats in your funnel. You want to see that number at 20% or higher. And it’s good if you can get at least 100 people to hit the landing page before you take that measurement.

If your offer is amazing and your copy is incredible and your landing page conversion rate is less than 20%, then your problem is simple:

The Traffic

If you’re using Facebook Ads, this means your audience targeting stinks or your Facebook Ad graphic and copy is misleading the people who are clicking.

Facebook Ads

So I want to make something clear here first. Facebook Ads are the chum you’re throwing in the water to attract the sharks. If the issue is with your Facebook Ad, it’ll be really obvious because no one will be clicking, or the cost per conversion will be super high.

The Tripwire or Intro Offer

Alright so your landing page conversion rate is 40%. Your ads are doing well. But NO ONE is buying. This means there’s an issue with the tripwire sales page. How do you know if it’s not doing well?

The OTO Offer

If you’re running a funnel with an OTO and it isn’t converting, first make sure you know what is normal.

Webinar Funnels

Okay, for those of you running webinar funnels, you might feel like it’s harder to diagnose the problem.

3. Bold Text

With the rise of Instagram, one would expect text to be less of a focus in digital marketing. But, on the contrary, creative ways of employing text in visuals can make a massive impact on your content’s engagement.

4. Leave Frames Behind

Social media used to have a set framing system for its visuals—the subject of your image would generally be in the centre, with all the content neatly contained within the image. But now, asymmetry is ruling the digital marketing roost.

5. Flexible Branding

Making an attractive logo for your brand is hard work and once you have settled on a design, you obviously don’t want to change it. Doesn’t that completely negate the point of creating a logo in the first place? Not in the current digital market.

6. Be Consistent

According to the latest branding statistics, consumers need to interact with your brand 5-7 times before they even recognize it.

The answer to this is pretty straightforward. The email open rate is a metric that defines how much of your emails from your campaigns are clicked and opened by your email lists.

Use A Strong Subject Line

This tip should be obvious. A weak subject line will only deter the reader into clicking the email open.

Determine The Best Schedule To Send Out Emails

Another factor that determines an email’s open rate is the time it is sent. But here’s the thing. There is no clear-cut one-size-fits-all schedule for sending emails.

Audit, Clean Up and Segment Your Email List

This one should be done regularly. Cleaning out your email list will make sure that only your loyal contacts are in your list.

Send Reminder or Follow-Up Emails To Those Who Did Not Open Your Emails

Sending reminders or follow-ups to people in the email lists lets you know who among them are still interested in receiving your content.

On a scale from 1 to 10 (1 being the lowest) imagine you are a person with a level 2 strength of character and attitude looking at a level 5 problem. Would this problem appear to be big or little? From a level 2 perspective, a level 5 problem would seem like a big problem. Now imagine you’ve grown yourself and become a person with a level 8 strength of character.

Magically, the identical problem is now a little problem.Finally, imagine that you’ve really worked hard on yourself and become a level 10 person.

I was done with positive thinking. And it was when I flipped that thought around, that things really started changing and looking up and the fun started.

With Positive Thinking:
People use positive thinking to pretend that everything is rosy, when they really believe that it’s not.People believe that their thoughts are true.

1. Create a killer email opt-in page.

A lot of folks building email lists from scratch jump the gun when first starting out.

here are a few more things to keep in mind when crafting your email opt-in page…
Make it pretty?—?you don’t like ugly things, your subscribers won’t either.Make it different?—?my email opt-in page works because it’s like nothing else people see online, it’s different.Make it concise?—?tell your visitor what they need to know and then shut the hell up, it’s an offer, not a novel.
2. Land your first 100 subscribers.

When you’re building your email list from scratch, 100, 1,000 and 10,000 are your mile-markers.

Implement realistic strategies to gain 1,000 subscribers.

My strategy for growing Sticky Notes to 1,000 subscribers is the same strategy I used to grow it to 3,000+ subscribers and it will be the same strategy I use to grow it to 10,000 subscribers and so on.

Working for an employer is not fulfilling for a lot of people. People want more flexibility. They want to travel, let out their FOMO, and work from anywhere. The nine-to-five office job is dead.

For some of us, not everyone, but for some, a better fitting career path is entrepreneurial freedom.

1. Acquire a skill you loveThis is the foundation of your career and will serve you for the rest of your life. A skill you love is the asset you will use to help others succeed, which is the foundation of business.

But it doesn’t have to be writing.

Your skill can be anything that adds value to someone or something else.

So how do you find it? (Skip the following section if you already know).

Entrepreneurial freedom is an untethered, independent way to build wealth doing what you love to do.

Three questions that will help you acquire a skill you love
With what do you love to create? I believe everyone is innately drawn to create in some way. Whether it’s with words, wood, code, paint, or culinary arts. How do you express your creativity?
If you were given a billion dollars right now, what would you spend your time doing? A mentor took me out to lunch one day and sat across the table from me.

How can you get really, really good at that one thing? This is a very pragmatic question.

James Scott Bell writes a ton of fiction books, but also a ton of books about how to write fiction books. Not only is he making a living on writing books, but also how to write books.

Strengths: people tend to ask me to look over essays and writing work for feedback, so I might put “writing/editing skills” as a strength.Interests: I bake snacks and am on a quest to finding ways to improve their taste. I’ll write down “making baked goods, especially oatmeal-based snacks”. Feel free to write both general and specifics down, since we’re putting down whatever comes to mind.Problems: I notice that people around me commonly complain about work-related health issues, such as stress and fatigue. I can put these down too.

Where the best startup business ideas come from.

One of the strengths of technology in the digital era is focused on simplifying your life. The Internet takes center stage at helping customers meet their needs, whether big or small.


The best ideas come from identifying problems: For Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, the problem was an expensive computer.


Focus on trends in the areas you are interested in: As a potential startup business owner, you have likely developed a niche based on prior experience, future potential, or both.

 

How to ask yourself the right questions.

Sometimes, launching a startup business idea involves taking a risk.


What is your skill set? Are you good at sales and marketing? Do you have strong writing skills?

#2 Opt for a Systems Approach

A systems approach divides your goals according to different areas of your life. This is beyond your average goal settings because it aligns an area where you want to get something done with the value that can be realized when it is accomplished.

 

#4 Learn to take Care of people

Successful entrepreneurs have spotted out fundamental human needs that ain't getting fulfilled as entrepreneurship is all about pricing services.

 

#5 Always be Adjustable to Situations

It is better to stay open to new insights and opportunities that are becoming apparent as you work through your plans.</googleplay:description><googleplay:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/f639356624fe1bbe5773de68f52a726b.jpg"/><googleplay:explicit>No</googleplay:explicit></item><item><title>5 Sexy Secrets to Creating a Presentation That Wins 100% of the Time</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/user/succezzcoach/5-sexy-secrets-to-creating-a-presentatio_6</link><description><![CDATA[1.

uncover those things that drive you at your deepest level.

Then, you can put those values to work for you in productive, powerful, and even magnetic ways to attract the things, people and situations you desire most in life.

 

To state what’s probably obvious by now: values are a big deal. But there’s more to this idea than initially meets the eye. 

 

But how we think about the value of money can have a profound impact on how well we’re able to manifest wealth and financial resources in our lives. 

But deciding, in a very self-honest manner, which of the values belongs above the other in terms of priority will help you make decisions 

that ultimately yield more happiness and fulfillment.

2. Create Location Based Anchors 

One of the most powerful yet least utilized productivity and focus hacks is the intentional creation of location based anchors.

An anchor is simply an external stimuli that triggers your brain to go into a particular state.

For example, if you’ve ever been to a Tony Robbins’ event, you’ll know that one of his favorite exercises is to get the entire crowd AMPED up and then instruct them to make a specific physical gesture to anchor the emotional state into their body. Then, when the power within has fallen back asleep and destiny is flaking on its date, attendees can bring themselves back into that motivated and energetic “Seminar State” with the clench of a fist or clap of the hands. 

 

3. Use these Supplements 

Before I dive into the secrets of “Better focus through chemistry,” I must preface this section with a simple caveat.

Smart drugs and nootropics work.

4. Read More…Slowly 

With of tablets, smart phones, and other e-readers, the consumption of written online content has gone up a staggering 40% in recent years. Amazing, right?

Except…it isn’t.

Although direct-marketing techniques have been used since the advent of the printing press, the definition that was set 84 years ago holds true today: Direct-response marketing is a form of marketing designed to solicit an immediate response that is specific and quantifiable.

 

 

What Is Multi-Channel Marketing (MCM)?

Multi-channel marketing is simply offering customers more than one way to buy.

 

 

One More Time

The very next day, she sees a TV commercial for the very same gloves. And the commercial features an 800 number that makes it easy to order. So she picks up the phone and orders. Five days later, she is enjoying her new gloves.

 

More Channels = More Money

A study by the Direct Marketing Association [DMA] found that customers who buy from two channels rather than one are between 20 and 60 percent more valuable to a company over time. Customers who buy from three channels rather than one are 60 to 125 percent more valuable.

1. Take Ownership Of Your Life 

So many of us spend our lives waiting for our “big break.” We think that if we just put our heads down, work hard, and do the right things, eventually someone will hand over the keys to our success.

2. If You Want To Change The Fruits, First Change The Roots 

This may not make a lot of sense at first, but picture a tree in an orchard. Any kind of fruit will do. This tree you’re imagining represents your life.

3. Be Willing To Be Uncomfortable

The truth is, most people have trouble stepping outside their comfort zone. When we hit a roadblock or an obstacle, we assume that we’re doing something wrong.

4. What You Focus On Expands

Have you ever met the kind of person who can’t seem to stop complaining about everything that’s wrong with their life? You probably have. Did that person seem happy, or did they seem absolutely miserable?

5. Your Word Must Become Law

It’s time to be honest, and the answer to this question may make you cringe.

It’s finding a way to balance making a living with making a life. 

1. Accept the Price for Success 

When I first started working with Jason, he was, by his own admittance, searching for the “easy way out”.

Everywhere we look we see ads, gurus, and marketers telling us that we can become millionaires, find the love of our lives, or build that rocking body we’ve always wanted by using “One weird trick”.

Our society fetishizes efficiency, ease, and comfort and constantly plants the idea in our mind that success should be easy.

2. Your Morning Routine is the Ultimate Force Multiplier 

When we first started working together, Jason’s mornings were, to be blunt, a mess.

He had no structure, no set-in-stone routines, and no rules to ensure that he woke up on time and owned his days

3. Don’t Hide from Your Weaknesses, Own Them 

One of the most common things that hold entrepreneurs back from achieving the success and balance that they desire is the belief they can do everything themselves.

AndPeople who should listen to this  for Jason, it was no different.

5. Schedule the Big Rocks First

I’m about to share something that has changed my life and the lives of thousands of my clients.

You ready?

2. Brainstorm Your Framework Until it’s a Doodle

You’ve seen Russell’s doodles right? They are REALLY simple.

And simple is not less valuable than complex.

3. The Doodles Within the Doodles

Some of you might be thinking, “But my teaching is too complex for a doodle!”

Many of you heard (how could you not?!) of the infamous $3M presentation Russell gave at the Grant Cardone event.

This might sound disheartening, but realizing this is a source of strength.

Why? Because we ALWAYS have control over how we respond to challenging events, even extremely difficult ones.

1. Track your language and self-talk

“The words you speak become the house you live in.”?—?Hafiz

Research shows that language is a vehicle for emotion. As a result, how you think, and the language that you use, determines how you feel. It is therefore essential to observe what you say, especially what you say to yourself.

2. Harness the power of choice

Life is full of challenges, most of which we have no control over. This might sound disheartening, but realizing this is a source of strength.

Why? Because we ALWAYS have control over how we respond to challenging events, even extremely difficult ones.

These are extreme examples, but provide powerful demonstrations of our ability to choose.

“When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.”?—?Viktor Frankl

What is a lead? 

 

A lead is someone who has shown interest in your business and who has given you his or her name and contact information (typically an email address). 

Make sure that you have a specific goal for your leads. 

 

How many leads you have will directly determine the number of sales you'll have. If you have a 3% conversion rate and want to get 50 new customers every week, then you need to have 1,667 leads to reach your desired conversion.

#1 - Build a gate, but give them the key with lead magnets.

 

Lead magnets are any piece of free content that you provide some freebie in exchange for a website visitor's contact info.

#2 - Dig your feet in with a place for customers to land.

 

The purpose of most landing pages is to generate leads. Landing pages are used to support advertising strategies.

#3 - Make their mouths water with blogs.

 

Oh, did you think the days of blogging for business had come to a close? Think again.

8 Must-Do's For Your Lead Generation Website

1 - Design for All Screens

WithLeadpages, it's really easy to check that everything is working on mobile right within the landing page builder. 

2 - Keep The "F-Shape" In Mind

   "Your conversion efforts will be far more compelling when assets are easy to find and are built with a reader-centric mindset," says Hubspot.

3 - Proudly Display Social Proof With Testimonials

   In order for a website visitor to convert into a lead, they need to fork over some pretty personal info: their name, email address, phone number, and maybe even address.

4 - Avoid Stock Images and Think About User Benefit When Sourcing Visuals

Whether you capture leads for an international, national, or local lead generation website, remember this: pictures do speak a thousand words.

5 - Keep it Simple

  Simple design and text are essential to generating leads generation websites. "Above all, try to keep the pages simple." remarks Salesforce.

6 - Complement Good Design With Content

Ever heard the phrase "content is king"?

  Every successful business focuses on creating intelligent and lead-nurturing content throughout the customer journey - including your lead generation website.

Referrals are the best way to get clients for 99% of businesses because…
They are no or low cost, as you’re working with warm leads and asking someone else to make introductions. You don’t have to invest a lot of time or money into getting referrals.They are “warm leads,” and are easier to convert to clients because they come via a reliable recommendation and pre-seeded trust.They often lead to an immediate sale, cutting out the sometimes long, drawn-out process of courting cold audiences via advertising.
 

Step 1: Create a spreadsheet to track your referrals 
This doesn’t have to be fancy; just create a simple spreadsheet in Excel and keep it on your desktop.
Step 2: Send a gift or offer commission 

Using your loyal customers as a starting point, spark the referral conversation with a gift.

Step 3: Say thank you

There’s no question that your gift or commission will let your customer know you appreciate them.

Step 4: Give them the referral script

After thanking your client and graciously asking for a referral, you need to make their follow-through easy.

Step 5: Keep asking

Part of the success of the “culture of referrals” is persistence. A one-time gift is nice, but it’s not enough.

How to Create Passive Income: There's No One System


In figuring out how to create passive income, I like to say that we're setting up an FFA: a Financial Freedom Account

It's Not the System, It's You


Now let's get to the longer part of the story here. People lose money and make money in all kinds of investing, whether in a business, stocks, real estate, etc.
Are other people doing well? The only way to know if a system works is if its developers are making money.Does it resonate with you? What do you feel? If you don't want to invest in stocks, don't do it. My investment in stocks themselves is minimal in comparison to my other investments.Why?
Push Yourself to Learn


Regardless of which investment method you choose, the key word here is LEARN.

So LEARN real estate. It's not that hard.


LEARN stock systems. Find ones that people do well with.


LEARN how to systemize your business.

4. People pleasing


"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." ~ Dr. Seuss

5. Procrastination

6. Social media &amp; entertainment addiction


How much time do you spend checking Facebook, surfing the web and skimming through television channels?

7. Resistance to change


Do you want to grow and evolve, or stay the same?


If you chose the first option, then the answer is simple: change.

a) “I didn’t know you had a morning routine program.”

b) “I don’t believe I will follow through.”

Hmmm.

I’m embarrassed, and a little shocked.

First, I’m embarrassed that so many Early to Rise customers had NO idea about this amazing new product we had been promoting for three months.

i) Is it clear what you do? Will people understand what your product does?

ii) Is your offer clear, concise, and beneficial to the prospect? Will people understand what they are getting?

If you’re a real estate agent, do people know what type of home is your specialty?

If you’re a contractor, do people know what kind of jobs you do—and don’t do?

If you’re a coach, do people understand what they get with your program?

If you own a gym, do people understand whom it’s for—and not for?

If you sell a book or a course, do people understand its benefits?

iii) Finally, do you promote your products and services often enough? 

You might be holding back on promoting yourself or your products because you don’t want to be seen as too “sales-y.” But if your business strategy is to simply hope and wait for someone to buy, that won’t work.

Self-limiting beliefs are that powerful. 

Self-doubt is probably one of your biggest obstacles in life. What has it stopped you from doing in the past? Asking for a raise? Asking for a date? Writing a book? Running a marathon? 

Your internal resistance has killed too many of your hopes and dreams. It must stop now.

For instance, you may be a master salesperson already, but what happens if…
A customer goes on social media to complain about your business?A customer accidentally hurts themselves using your product or service and blames you?Someone in your business does something shady and causes a public scandal?
 

Step 1: Respond, Don’t React
You will almost never be in a situation where you only have five seconds to respond to someone else’s question or statement. That only happens in hostage negotiations or game shows.
Step 2: Repeat What You Heard

This is ultimate trick for breaking through stalemates, clearing up misunderstandings, and creating solutions out of seemingly dead-end situations.

Step 3: Take Action to Make Them Feel Better

Action is the ultimate form of communication. Craig Ballantyne’s favorite quote from Maya Angelou sums this up perfectly:

Here’s how Elon Musk actually responded:

“You’re right, this is becoming an issue. Supercharger spots are meant for charging, not parking. Will take action.”

Truth: People Crave (Authentic) Connection

Humans are smart. When we follow our gut instincts, we know who we can trust and who we can’t. 

You Are Unique, So Show It

We are all unique, carrying with us chapters of a story that no one else can tell. These are the stories that give you the chance to build a supportive tribe of followers and friends. 

In some cases, your support group can provide financial support for your business. As your friends, they provide social and moral backing. 

You Are The Difference-Maker 

Your past, present, and personality are what makes you stand out. 

This is what will help you build genuine connections in this world. 

How? Look into your personal life for interests and experiences you can share with others. Your favorite heroes, hobbies, sports you play, your dreams for the future.

1. Leads weekly 1-on-1 meetings (called Goal, Set, and Review meetings)

The structures of both this meeting and the Goal, Set, and Review

At the heart of this is your commitment to providing them with an environment in which they can flourish, rewarding them for being proactive, and coaching them for high performance.

Honestly the PLR stuff out there used to be pretty bad. But over the last couple of years it has improved tremendously and frankly it would be impractical if you did not investigate this for yourself.

Step 1: Find Suitable PLR


First, you need to find PLR content in your niche. If you don't already have a source, then search for your niche topic alongside search terms like PLR, PLR articles, PLR ebooks, PLR content or private label rights content.

Step 2: Decide How You'll Use the Content


Next, you need to decide what you want to do with the content. Your options include:

Using the content to create a multi-part autoresponder series.

Step 3: Rewrite the Content to Suit Your Needs


Finally, you need to rewrite the PLR content or at least part of it to make it unique and also to make it suitable for your specific purpose and audience.

 

Transform the content as needed. If you're turning a series of articles or an ebook into an ecourse, then you need to break the content apart into at least seven to twelve parts

According to Forbes, 8 out of 10 businesses fail within the first 18 months. Why? Because they run out of cash. And even if you are successful, you likely won’t see profits for 5 years<br /><br />1. Conduct market research <br /><br />Whatever your exciting new business prospect is, don’t get swayed by mere possibility.<br /><br />2. Figure out the start-up cost<br /><br />While your initial market research will give you a general sense of start-up costs, now is the time to dig into the numbers. Some estimates show that the cost of launching a business can reach $30,000, so make sure you take all factors into account.<br /><br />3. Start an LLC<br /><br />Once you’ve determined the viability of your business and product/service, start an LLC. You’ll have to submit articles of organization to your state’s Secretary of State. Usually, this costs between $40 and $900.<br /><br />4. Save for your living expenses<br /><br />Now that you’ve got some solid numbers, start saving.

1. Conduct market research 

Whatever your exciting new business prospect is, don’t get swayed by mere possibility.

2. Figure out the start-up cost

While your initial market research will give you a general sense of start-up costs, now is the time to dig into the numbers. Some estimates show that the cost of launching a business can reach $30,000, so make sure you take all factors into account.

3. Start an LLC

Once you’ve determined the viability of your business and product/service, start an LLC. You’ll have to submit articles of organization to your state’s Secretary of State. Usually, this costs between $40 and $900.

4. Save for your living expenses

Now that you’ve got some solid numbers, start saving. Along with the expenses associated with setting up and operating a new business, you need to be financially prepared to cover your living expenses for several months.

5. Boost your credit score

Before you dive into funding, you need to make sure your personal credit is solid. Why? That’s how banks and potential investors know you are a solid bet for a loan.

The good news is, it's actually easy to keep a hold on that store and reap the benefits of publishing content.


Here are a few examples that will illustrate how you can do this.

Sell a Service by Explaining How to Find You

If you sell a service, you don't need to provide content on how to do what you do because people who want to do it themselves aren't really in your target market.

Sell a Product by Selling the Why

If you sell a consumer product, the same logic applies. You want the content to teach them why they need your product and enhance their experience of using your product.

Sell Information Products with the What and Not the How

If you sell information products, people think this is where it gets really tricky to control what you give away and what you sell, but it doesn't have to. There are a couple of ways you can approach this.

Use Soft Endings


One of the best ways to do this is with a "soft ending" to your essays. Most articles and essays end with a "hard ending."

If visitors show up and find bad or no content, they'll probably be like me (and you) and just leave before they can click on links or buy any products.

What Is Great Content?


So, just what is quality content?  


Quality content should be written specifically for your target audience. If your customers are newcomers to the Internet, you don't want to use technical jargon that they won't understand. Just like if you are marketing to seasoned businesspeople, you want to use more specific terms and ideas so they view you as a reliable and credible source of advice, ideas and information.

Can You Buy Great Content?


You may be able to get a good price on content from various sites, but that doesn't mean the product is worth it.

Do You Need Original Content on Your Website?

 

It helps you if your content is original. There are hundreds of services out there that will give you great content to post on your website for free, as long as you don't change it.

Here's What It Means


A mentor is two things: First, a mentor is someone who's been where you want to go.

Here's Why This Is So Important


For example, when I mentor my clients, I show them things like how to…
Stop trading "time for money"Take ACTION even in the face of fearTrade excuses for RESULTSGet more RECOGNITION and financial rewardsMake an IMPACT and enjoy transforming lives around the world
Here's Where to Start


1.    Write 3 things you want to accomplish in the next 12 months.

2.    Decide who can help you get there.


After you've identified your top 3 goals for the next 12 months, make a list of the people you know or have heard of, who've accomplished similar results,

3.    Get that person's support to help you achieve your goals.


It's not always easy to find the right mentor to help you achieve your goals.

In fact, that's one reason so many people worship the so-called "gurus"…

You know, the ones who achieved "overnight success"…


And who say things like…


"Well I was struggling before, but then my success just happened out of the blue!"

Which is another way to say, "How to finish what you started."


What I mean by that is, let's say you want to go from Where You Are to Where You Want to Be.


Whether it's in your business, your finances, your health, your weight, your relationship…


You want to go from Point A to Point B.


You want to finish what you started.

Maybe it’s because they dropped the ball and didn’t deliver on time, or maybe they failed to communicate properly, making you look bad.

These kinds of misunderstandings can be avoided. 

You might think, “Well, how can I possibly know what’s really going on if they don’t tell me?”

That’s at the heart of masterful communication.

How to Become a Master Communicator

As a foundation for your mastery of communication, I’m going to share the biggest insights I’ve received in business—plus a simple four-step process you can use the next time you find yourself at odds with a team member.

As humans, the biggest thing we crave is the understanding and recognition of others.


But that goes both ways. So the next time you find yourself fuming over something a team member did or didn’t do, flip the script to get to a solution faster.

The Bridge to Understanding

To tackle the very common problem of mutual misunderstanding, I came up with a simple process.

Acknowledge

When we don’t take the time to really look someone in the eye and acknowledge them, we end up slapping labels on them or pushing them into stereotypes.

Understand

Once you’ve acknowledged and connected, it’s time to understand the other person’s world.

* Awareness - Usually buyers are trying to get information about their problem or are trying to identify their symptoms so that they can find a solution for their problem.

* Consideration - Now buyers know what their problem is, and they're trying to research it from all angles so they can understand everything that will help them solve their problem.

* Decision - Buyers at this point of the journey have become aware of their problem, and due to their research have become aware of the solutions that are out there - including yours.

Step 1 - Identify the bull in the herd


Our subconscious is a wonderful place full of ideas, instincts and intuition.

Step 2 - Separate the bull from the herd


You should never look a bull in the eyes, nor should we stare down our own inner struggles. Giving focused attention to your obstacle can increase the tension and allow your bull to go wild.


Step 3 - Use the bull to grow the herd


After identifying the obstacle, you have a chance to embrace it and use it to your advantage.

Magnetism, as you recall from physics class, is a powerful force that causes certain items to be attracted to refrigerators.” —Dave Barry

1. People tend to do business with people they like.

So, behave in a way that makes you likable. Be polite and patient. Avoid being crude, rude, gruff, or impatient. That sort of thing.

2. People are attracted to people who keep their word.

So when you make a promise, do exactly what you promised, by the deadline you promised—or sooner.

3. People are attracted to people whom they believe have their best interests at heart.

They know you have their best interests at heart when they hear you give them advice that benefits them the most, in spite of the fact that you won’t make any money by doing so.

4. People are attracted to people they believe are experts in their fields—the “gurus.”

To use this principle, first you need to actually become a leading expert in your field through practice, research, training, education, and study.

5. People are attracted to people who are honest, ethical, and aboveboard.

So why lie in your marketing (and elsewhere) when telling the truth is so much more effective at getting you business?

The beauty of marketing in the 21st century is that many of the marketing channels available to you are cheap, easy and fast to execute.   


The cost of entry has never been lower (and I am not just talking email marketing), and there has never been more niche markets available.

Telemarketing allows you to provide additional information and answer questions your customers may have.

Some forms of marketing don't cost you a dime. You can create online buzz about your product through social media.

Want to drum up great PR? Get to know the media. Of the many channels of marketing, public relations is one that every business should embrace. That's because it is nearly free.

The Principles Behind Joint-Venture Marketing

 

Joint ventures take advantage of two of the fundamental principles of wealth that Adam Smith talked about in Wealth of Nations: division of labor and unrestricted trade.

 

Strategies For Successful Joint Ventures

 

Joint-venture marketing relationships can be extremely valuable. Every ambitious entrepreneur and marketing director should be open to them. Making them work, however, does take time and consume resources. And because you don’t have unlimited time and resources, it makes sense to be strategic in selecting your joint-venture partners.

 

1. Look for strong partners—businesses that have significant skills and/or resources that you lack.

 

2. Make sure that your contribution to the deal is equal to your partner’s. An unbalanced partnership is not good for either party.

I don't care who you are or what you do, you sell. Everyone does.
You may be selling who you are on your resume.You may be selling your team on your vision.You may be selling a message to the world that you're passionate about.You may be selling a product or service the world really needs.You might even be selling your parents on letting you stay up late, or your spouse on taking your family on a vacation.
 

Nothing ever gets accomplished until somebody sells something.

How You Serve When You Sell


Here are just a few ways you can serve other people when you sell:

1.    Put them first.

2.    Improve their lives.

3.    Be authentic.

4.    Create win-win situations.

What exactly is an outcome goal? And why is there only one of them?

An outcome goal is a numbers-based objective—like losing 10 pounds or making $1 million. It’s more specific than “losing weight” or “getting rich.”

I limit it to just one outcome goal because I want you to be singularly focused on the goal that has the most significant impact on your life. Think of the outcome goal as the bullseye on the target. If you hit the bullseye, it’s worth more than hitting the outside ring 10 times.

five pillars of success that take you from planning to measurable results. The fifth pillar is what the 1-2-3 Goal-Setting Formula really takes advantage of: the BIG deadline.

Deadlines turn the abstract into the concrete, spur us to action, keep us going through tough times, and move faster toward the finish line

And process goals? What are those, and why three of them?

We need to use process goals because there is a serious FLAW in only setting outcome goals.

Let me explain. A good friend of mine, Alwyn Cosgrove, taught me that we do not control our outcome goals. There are always external circumstances influencing the final outcome. We might lose nine pounds instead of 10, or we might make $900K instead of an extra million.

give people the solution to their problem, but not the step-by-step instructions for doing it. You're showing them they need your product to fully accomplish what they want to do.

Sell a Product by Selling the Why

If you sell a consumer product, the same logic applies. You want the content to teach them why they need your product and enhance their experience of using your product.

Sell Information Products with the What and Not the How

If you sell information products, people think this is where it gets really tricky to control what you give away and what you sell, but it doesn't have to. There are a couple of ways you can approach this.

Use Soft Endings


One of the best ways to do this is with a "soft ending" to your essays.

How To Prepare Content Super F.A.S.T.™


There are four basic ways that I use the concept of "recycling" content in my own business which I describe by using the acronym F.A.S.T.™…


F - FIND appropriate excerpts.

A - ADD to free materials.

S - SWIPE other people's content.

T - TRANSCRIBE your rants.
FIND appropriate excerpts


Do you have existing products related to your topic?  Feel free to excerpt portions of those products as essays.
2. ADD to free materials


The next option that I use is to "add to free materials".  


In other words -

You take existing content that you've previously made available for free and you contribute additional content to further explain and enhance it.

9.    Give more than you get. Karma does exist. If you are known as the WIIFM (what's in it for me) type, you need to work to change your image.

Getting to Know Your List

Accompanying your printout of list and media choices should be a data card. Data cards contain standardized information on all media and lists.

Purchase Channel: This tells you whether the list is direct-mail sold, email lead generation, or compiled (i.e., the names were culled from directories).

Average Unit of Sale (AUS): This is very important when selecting your list. If you are selling high-end riding lawn mowers that cost as much as $4,000 or more, you don't want a list of people who purchased only gardening gloves for $9.95.

Universe Size: This is simply how large the list is. A list's universe size is an important consideration in making roll-out decisions.

Not All Lists Are Created Equal


There are basically two kinds of lists that you can market to:

Hot Leads: People who have opted in to receive e-mails from you but have not yet made a purchase. They have taken the first step by saying they want information from you.

Buyers: People who have opted in and have purchased one product from you.

What Is Cause Marketing?


Cause marketing refers to a type of marketing that involves the cooperative efforts of a "for profit" business and a non-profit organization for mutual benefit.

Cause marketing differs from corporate giving (philanthropy), because the latter generally involves a specific donation that is tax deductible. Cause marketing, on the other hand, is a marketing relationship that's not necessarily based on a donation.

 

Answer the "Why" Before It's Asked


Like any good marketer (cause or not), TOMS answers the question "WHY SHOES?" before it's even asked.


TOMS lets its potential buyers know that wearing shoes protects against a disease called podoconiosis, a debilitating and disfiguring disease.



 

3 Keys for Business Growth

 



Like many great companies, TOMS grew out of a vision to make the world a better place. The company was able to create and implement this mission by combining traditional direct-response marketing with new media efforts.

1. Increase your number of customers.

2. Increase the number of purchases they make.

3. Increase the average amount they spend on each purchase.

Here’s where it starts:

Remember that Failure Doesn’t Mean the End

You don’t simply get up in the morning, run a 1,500-meter race, and win an Olympic goal.

Take Pride in the Little Things

The way you think about your achievements is indicative of how you see yourself. Prideful people boast about things that aren’t really worth boasting about.

Embrace Challenge

Life is full of challenges. Whether you’re trying to get up early on a Monday morning or learning a new skill or hobby, challenges are part of life.

Choose Your Words Carefully

The importance of how you speak to yourself and the people around can’t be stressed enough.

Remember That YOU Control You

At the end of the day, your attitudes, your beliefs, and your perceptions all depend on YOU.

Over time, I’ve built a phone sales process for my workshops that goes something like this:

Step #1 – “Hi! [Insert small talk].”

This is where you connect with your client based on something they mentioned in an email or on social media.

Step #2 – “Tell me more about your business.”

Collect vital information.

Step #3 – “Congratulations on launching a successful business! I’m wondering, though: What elements of running your business are still giving you pain? In what way are you still overwhelmed?”

Discover pain points you can solve.

Step #4 – “What would things look like in your business if you didn’t have to deal with these weaknesses?”

Encourage the client to see the concrete benefits to a solution.

Step #5 – “I think I have something that can help.”

A perfect-for-them solution is often too good to be true, but the manager/rep will often be open to hearing what you have in store.

Step #6 – “Great, let me tell you about the XXX we offer …”

Explain the benefits of your product or service and what you actually deliver. Create an enormous amount of value to justify the customer’s investment.

Still, the customer may balk …

2. ADD to free materials


The next option that I use is to "add to free materials".  


In other words -

You take existing content that you've previously made available for free and you contribute additional content to further explain and enhance it.

3. SWIPE other people's content


Why not ask for permission to "borrow" a portion of someone else's content in order to create your next article?

4. TRANSCRIBE your rants


And the final method I want to share is to "transcribe your rants".  That is, record yourself talking about a topic related to your site and then have it transcribed into the actual essay you'll be distributing.

The idea is fairly simple - The process of taking existing content and using it in another format or fashion.


A few quick examples include -
Recording mp3s of the content from an ebook and selling it as an audio product.


 Extracting content from an ebook to your inbox magazine articles.


 Converting the content of an ebook into a workshop or seminar presentation.

Natural Copywriting Is a Conversation


Pretend you're about to let a friend know about this great product, or service, or program you're about to write for and think about what you'd say to her.

Elements of Persuasive Copy


When writing copy, there are certain elements that are essential. And every one of them as a very specific job to do.
Headlines: This is pretty much an essential element of most copywriting and has the most important job of all.

Sub-headlines: So many writers don't use sub-heads and this is too bad. You see a subhead keeps the interest and curiosity flowing.
Bullet Point &amp; Numbered Lists: This too helps  break up small text but more importantly it helps move the reader down the page (closer to the sale).Testimonials: Testimonials are so important not only for credibility but also to make your reader feel like part of the community, part of the club.Benefits: Don't just talk about the product - talk about what the product will do for the reader. This includes things like: make more money, lose weight, be happier, etc.Product Details: Include items like the number of pages, format, warranty, pricing, etc. Include it all, and make sure the reader feels good about the "deal".

The process for writing your headline is completely different than the process for writing any other part of your sales letter.

 

Here's my easy five-step process that works!

#1 Write 100 Headlines, Then Choose One


Most world class copywriters write 50 to 100 headlines for any given sales letter they're tasked with writing. Only after completing all of these headlines do they choose the one they finally use.

#2 Use a Combination of Original and Swiped Concepts


If you want to write great copy, having a great swipe file is essential. Inside your swipe file should be dozens of potential ideas for attention catching headlines.

#3 Space Out the Writing


Write a few headlines in the beginning, when you're just starting the letter. Then write a few more as you're writing the body copy.

#4 Read Them Aloud


Read your favorite headlines aloud and see how they flow. Often you will identify misplaced words when you hear the headline out loud.

#5 Selecting the Final Headline


Once you've written out a wide range of headlines, let it sit for a few days. This will help sever any emotional preferences you may have attached from the writing process.

Make no mistake. Your ego is one of your greatest mental enemies in life.

Your Strengths

1) Your Persistence

You never give up.

The world has thrown everything at you: Heartbreak, chaos, tragedy, career and business setbacks, and daily obstacles. But you’ve never given up.

2. Your Generosity

My friend Yanik Silver once told me, “You cannot out-give the universe.” Well, if anyone’s tried, it’s you. Your heart shines through in good times and in bad. You’re always there for everyone.

Your Weaknesses

1. You Forget About You

You’ll do anything to take care of the people around you, but you forget to take care of you.

2. You Hold Back

People are out there “crying themselves to sleep” because they don’t have your help. You know it. You’ve heard them. And yet you’re still not being the leader that you can be for your team or your customers.

3. You Are Being a Pushover

You’ve done so much great work in your industry. People owe you. Yet you’re afraid to ask what you are worth. This is holding you back from enjoying the wealth and personal growth you deserve.

I call it "strategic clipping."


How it works is simple....


Whenever you come across an article in a magazine or newspaper that is relevant to one of your client's businesses -- or even his or her hobbies or personal life -- tear or clip it out of the publication ... and mail it to the client.

 

First, here's how I do it.


I don't deliberately research material to clip and send to clients.

Why is strategic clipping so effective? For 3 reasons:


First, the content is extremely targeted and relevant to the recipient.


Second, it has a personal touch -- especially the handwritten note -- and it shows people you are thinking of them.

Strategic clipping works online too!


When I get an e-newsletter in my inbox containing a relevant article, I immediately forward it to the appropriate person, also with a brief message

Making it happen requires a complete mindset change…


We are all running businesses, and it really doesn't matter how small. There are things we need to do to make that business work. There are expenses to pay and there is plenty of work to be done.

Hiring a graphic designer to make a logo or banner for you: This portrays a professional image that attracts more potential customers and saves you from the hours of learning and months and months of perfecting the art of graphic design.

Hiring a programmer to customize your shopping cart: You now have an easier and more streamlined shopping process that reduces cart abandonment…turning into more sales for you.

- Hiring a bookkeeper who gives you monthly reports: Now you can stay on top of your business and where it's going, instead of stressing out about those undocumented receipts from 6 months ago.

- Hiring a writer to write several pieces of content for you each month: Now you have lead generating materials to bring in more clients and you didn't even have to break a sweat.

This is a KEY distinction that far too many business owners fail to realize.

what you'll be promoting is a specific something… a combination of features, benefits, scarcity and guarantees, that are precisely matched to your target customer.

Those components make up a specific WIDGET … and how you write that out in words is your OFFER.


As you describe your offer in your sales material, you need to focus 90% on the outcome that the people listening to you will experience when they buy from you. 

Plan to sell from the very beginning - While in most cases you don't want to pounce on a person like a hungry lion the minute they open your letter, email or social media post,

Make them act now - Give your prospects a reason or reasons to act now!

Tracking and measure - If you don't track your marketing, how do you know what's working and what's not?

Individual results may and will vary - Be cautious of "best practices" or broad statements about what is working today.

Have adult conversations from the get-go. Establish who is responsible for what parts of the business. Make the partnership terms clear and concise, and be sure to write them down. A single page summary of responsibilities should do to start.

Speaking of writing, craft a strategy not only for success, but for failure. Put your goals and mission in clear, concise language.

There’s little sense in partnering with a great copywriter if you’re also a great copywriter. But if you can find a great partner with strengths in areas where you are weak, then the synergy (and potential success) is automatically greater.

“We both share the theory that you should hang around good people,” Munger said about his relationship with Buffett. “Always behave better every year than you behaved the previous year. Warren and I don’t agree on everything, and yet we’re respectful of one another.”

So how can businesses differentiate themselves?

 

By embracing a “pay it forward” business model and putting the needs of customers first.

 

Putting Others Before Self

 

Service leadership is the pillar of my business philosophy, and it was a foundational pillar in the life of Zig Ziglar. Ziglar famously said, “You can have everything you want in life if you will just help enough other people get what they want.”

 

3 Ways to Create a Pay-It-Forward Mindset

 

As Ziglar reassured me many years ago when I first listened to his cassettes, success should break in your favor if you help others get what they want. That is easy to say, but how can business leaders put this wisdom into practice? I recommend three steps to get you started:

1. Disrupt the Status Quo

2. Flip the Script

 

If a customer has a problem, address the issue ASAP with as few questions as possible. The most powerful form of advertising is word of mouth, and businesses that maintain a great reputation and reliable product are rewarded with customer loyalty.

3. Find the Pain Points

 

When a business offers a product or service that addresses your most pressing need, it is a win-win. Your problem has been solved, and the business has created a lifelong customer. Customers want to do business with companies that address their needs and solve their problems as opposed to a business solely focused on making a profit.

I believe we are spiritual beings living physical lives. To make the most of this life, we have to take care of, nurture, and most importantly listen to the clues that our spirit gives us. This happens mostly through gut intuition and feelings we have.

Taking the First Step Toward Positive Change


The first step is exactly where a lot of people get stuck. Even those with greater awareness and knowledge can struggle.

Use Momentum as Self Motivation to Change


Momentum is a force that makes it easier for someone who's successful to do what's right rather than what's wrong.

A body in motion will remain in motion, and a body at rest will remain at rest. So, what should we want to do? Get into motion!

While some high-performers eschew the idea of affirmation as a motivation—claiming it creates a false, fluffy reality—it has clear purpose as an impetus for growth.

1. Bookend your day with self-affirmations—one in the morning and one at night.

This is an ideal way to bracket the work you’ve done in a spirit of positivity and forward momentum.

2. Whenever you accomplish something positive in your day, write it down. 

At the end of the day or week, review the list to remind yourself of how often you do good deeds—for yourself and others.

3. Don’t forget that YOU are as important as your peers and family.

These affirmations aren’t just about what you accomplish to help and support other people.

4. Remember: Little things are the big things. 

We may think that a pat on the back or a smile during a co-worker’s stressful morning is of no consequence.

5. Profess; don’t confess.

For many, the temptation to sidestep into confessional thinking is strong. But the object of self-affirmation is not to counterbalance good deeds and heartfelt intention with guilt.

Focus on what you can do each day.

1.     “Where Do I Start?”

If you’ve already embarked on the long, arduous process of deciding the type of business you’re looking to get into (fashion, drop-shipping, kitchen goods, etc.), then congratulations! You’ve gone further than 90% of the entrepreneurial population.

2.     Marginal Benefits

While the entrepreneurial legends devoted every waking moment to their businesses, that isn’t always possible for us. You may have a family to support. A degree you’re still earning. Your business model could be slow in the initial stages and you may not have the financial cushion to take huge risks.

3.     The False Productivity Façade

This is a super common problem that affects e-commerce entrepreneurs especially. This is when you feel like you’re doing something useful… but the action really does nothing to further your business goals.

4.     Failure vs Momentum

It’s easy to stay motivated and productive when you finally see results. On the flip side, there’s nothing more discouraging than the massive amount of failure you first encounter when launching an e-commerce business.

1. Add an Opt-in Point to Your Navigation Bar


What's the first thing someone sees when they land on your homepage?


2. Inspire Action with Every Single Blog Post (Even the Old Ones)


If your business has maintained a blog for more than a year, you probably don't quite remember every post you've ever published.

3. Make a Last-Chance Lead Grab with Exit Popups


What's the one thing that could keep a random, anonymous site visitor from leaving your site (and staying random and anonymous forever)?

4. Save the Day with Your 404 Page


When someone reaches a 404 page on your site it might be your fault, it might be the visitor's fault, or it might be the fault of their cat who walked across the keyboard as they were typing in a URL.

5. Leave Something Great to Find in Your Footer


Earlier I mentioned the potential of adding an opt-in point to your site's navigation bar-people looking closely at it is likely in the early stages of familiarity with your business, which puts them in a sweet spot for joining your email list.

“Become a millionaire not for the million dollars, but for what it will make of you to achieve it.” — Jim Rohn

Interestingly, in our Western Culture, we falsely emphasize fixed traits and “personality” types. We believe very strongly in an unalterable “nature” which is uninfluenced and untouched by the environments in which we reside.

as you learn new things over time, your brain literally creates new connections and is reshaped. The brain you will have in a year from now will literally be a different brain than the one you have now. Especially if you consciously reshape how you see and live in the world.

You create an environment that facilitates your commitment because you know that as a person, you take on the form of your environment. The only agency you truly have is to choose the influences that shape you, both internally and externally.

Only Those Who Are Committed Succeed

Being ambitious isn’t honorable. Wanting more for your life is a common desire.

This “authentic” self is your worst enemy. It’s the excuse you have for not evolving. It’s your justification for not committing to something bigger and better. It’s the chain around your neck, stopping you from putting yourself into situations that will demand you become a better version of you.

Take Care of Your Finances

Fear of running out of money and not being able to provide for yourself or your family is one of the biggest reasons people stay at their current job. To conquer this fear, you need to save as much money as you can before making the jump.

Build Your Support Team

Being an entrepreneur is a lonely journey sometimes, especially if you’ve worked most of your adult life as an employee. You often don’t realize how many other entrepreneurs and friends are employees. It can be hard to relate.

Manage Your Time

Time management was one of the most difficult challenges I faced in my transition from employee to entrepreneur. I’ve found that the following techniques helped me get more control over my time:

Utilize your calendar.

Why  . . .


Because so often their ideas are great. Plus, they work hard!

But, they just don't know what they don't know. So instead of being widely successful, their business fails.

The Ten Deadly Mistakes Entrepreneurs Make That Destroy Their Profits, Morale and Reputation!

1) Do Not Have Clarity of Vision: If you do not understand why your business exists, then how can your customers, your team, vendor and joint venture partners?

 

2) Do Not Create Core Values for Their Company and Employees: You see your core values dictate how you do business every day.

 

3) Do Not Understand the Need for an Org Chart: An organizational chart not only adds structure and efficiencies to your business but it clarifies who an employee should go to solve a problem or present an idea.

 


4) Do Not Create Job Descriptions: Entrepreneurs tell me all the time that they need help.

 

5) Confusing a Passionate Idea for a Sellable Idea: When people ask for advice on what their business should be, I tell them two things:

 
Something you have experience inSomething you are passionate about
 

6) Do Not Pay Themselves: Must entrepreneurs do not factor their income into their financials and business plans.

That single habit is continuous, dedicated reading.

 

1 in 4 adults haven’t read a book in the last year

I decided long ago that watching television was not a worthy investment for me. I had big dreams and goals that needed to be reached. Spending time watching other people live their lives was far from enticing for me.

If we go back to the wisdom shared by Brian Tracy, it becomes easy to see why that same elite group of people enjoys approximately 96% of our global wealth.

It isn’t that the majority of the population are less fortunate, it’s that most people have a hard time disciplining their minds to develop good habits.

It is inexplicably easier to sit on a couch and get entertained by whatever drama the media world has cooked up on television. But how is that assisting you with tapping into the storehouse of potential power, intelligence, and wealth lying dormant in your mind?

How reading prepares you for the future

Aside from the fact that your brainpower, memory function, and mental sharpness will improve dramatically through this habit, think about the fact that our digital age has set into motion a way of life where things rapidly change.

Step 3:  Create an offer that is irresistible

Before you create your product online you first need to create an offer that is irresistible to your target market.

Step 6: Build your online assets for remarketing

In order for you to generate the most sales, you need to have a remarketing strategy in place that draws your audience back to your offers. 

Step 7: Automate the whole process

Don’t do more work than you have to!  The beauty of making money online is you can automate the whole process.  Set it up once and let the machine do the work for you.

As a fan of real crime stories and high-profile court cases, I've always enjoyed watching a good prosecutor in action.

 

If we boil down the essence of an effective message within a marketing funnel we'll find something very similar: an undeniable logical and emotional argument established by a string of assertions and claims each backed by a preponderance of proof.



In other words, laying out the message of your marketing funnel is very similar to what a prosecutor does when laying out the message of their case.

 

"What does the prospect need to believe

at the end of my marketing funnel to buy?" 

 

 

Answering this question is essential since the entire message of your marketing funnel is then going to be engineered to establish those beliefs in the mind of your prospect.

 

What are you going to say, claim, or assert

for each thing you want the prospect to believe?



For instance:



Using our prior Facebook Advertising example - maybe I need the prospect to believe that they'll have an easier time getting started with Facebook Advertising than any other paid traffic platform.

 

just like a prosecutor, be sure to prove beyond a shadow of doubt everything you want the prospect to believe.

 

 

Finally, once you're confident you've made your case, it's time to present your closing argument. In a marketing funnel this is when you present the offer and give the call to action.</googleplay:description><googleplay:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/f639356624fe1bbe5773de68f52a726b.jpg"/><googleplay:explicit>No</googleplay:explicit></item><item><title>The Ultimate Guide to Successful Goal Setting</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/user/succezzcoach/the-ultimate-guide-to-successful-goal-se_4</link><description><![CDATA[The Origins of Goal Setting <br /><br />Goal setting, done the right way, is a direct process for success, happiness, wealth, and freedom.

Goal setting, done the right way, is a direct process for success, happiness, wealth, and freedom. It has been for centuries, since the days of Milos in Ancient Greece, who used goal setting to gain more strength every day, to the days of conquistadors and kings searching for a route to the new world.

The greatest authors, scientists, and entrepreneurs from history all used goal setting to overcome perceived limitations and achieve faster results, making them legends.

“How much steel did your team make today?” he asked his day-shift foreman.

“Six heats,” the foreman replied.

Schwab took a piece of chalk and drew a giant “6” on the factory floor.

When the night-shift team arrived, they asked what the number represented. After hearing that it was the day shift’s daily production, the night shift team took it upon themselves to outdo that number.

What Exactly Is A Goal?

The dictionary defines a goal as:
The object of a person’s ambition or effort; an aim or desired result.The end toward which effort is directed
You’ve probably set goals for school (getting an “A” on a test), for your health (losing five pounds), or your wealth (getting a raise of $5,000 or saving $10,000 by the end of the year for a holiday vacation).

First, add a deadline. Second, add specificity. And third, be realistic. 

To overcome the temptation to sit around wishing your life away, George T. Doran outlined the importance of objectives, the difficulty of setting them, and how to do it easier. This strategy was published in the November 1981 issue of Management Review and was dubbed the S.M.A.R.T. approach to goal setting.

In every workplace.. social scene.. city… there are people who seem to have it all:

The popularity, the recognition, the prestige. Doors magically open for them in all kinds of life-changing ways.

But what if you could become more charismatic with the flip of a switch?

Let’s start with a peek into the life of Steve Jobs…

A man many call the the most charismatic of the 21st century.

Barely a month before the first iPhone was set to release in 2007, a frustrated Steve Jobs summoned his senior team.

Steve had been carrying around a prototype iPhone for a few weeks. With his team assembled, he pulled the prototype out of his pocket and pointed at the dozens of scratches on his plastic screen.

People would carry their phone in their pockets, he said. They’d have keys and other things in there. And those things would scratch the screen.

Steve wanted something more elegant than plastic. He wanted glass.

 

In that make-or-break moment, one of two things could have happened: 

Either the iPhone gets made with Gorilla Glass, or we’re all stuck walking around with super-scratched plastic smartphones.

Jobs wanted glass. Jobs knew he needed glass. And so, Jobs got glass. But how?

By turning on one of the 3 most important Charisma Traits: Certainty. 

When this CEO felt uncertain he couldn’t provide the glass needed, Jobs wasn’t fazed.

Imagine changing one thing and having SEVEN TIMES as many people follow your lead.

Know Your "Why"


Your mission statement should be a formal, short, written statement of your company's/organization's purpose. In a nutshell, it should answer the question "Why does my company exist?"


In Peter Drucker's book, The Five Most Important Questions You Will Ever Ask About Your Organization, Mr. Drucker writes "A mission cannot be impersonal; it has to have deep meaning, be something you believe in - something you know is right. A fundamental responsibility of leadership is to make sure that everybody knows the mission, understands it, lives it."

 

Google: Organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful.

Apple: Bringing the best personal computing experience to consumers around the world.

Facebook: Give the people the power to share and make the world more open and connected.

Adobe: To help people express, share, manage and collaborate on their ideas in imaginative and meaningful new ways.

Samsung: We will devote our human resources and technology to create superior products and service, thereby contributing to a better global society.

It is the most critical aspect of ANY business. It is the single most important thing you need to obtain and maintain in order to keep your doors open. In fact, it’s the very lifeblood of your organization.


Customers!


Making sure your customers are beyond satisfied with your products, services, and ongoing correspondence should be your number one priority!

 

10 Surefire Ways to Ensure Customer
Cool off: Never deal with a customer problem immediately after reading or listening to nasty correspondence. Listen: Let your customer tell you his/her issue without interruption
3. Apologize: If you are the person the customer is speaking to, always apologize and take responsibility.

4. Assess the situation: There is an old saying that goes like this: “When you assume, you make an ass out of you and me.” 

5. Communicate via phone: How many times have you received an email and thought, “Boy, was that rude!

6. Never dispute a refund: All of your products should come with a money-back guarantee.

7. Send a surprise follow-up gift: We all love getting surprise gifts in the mail.

8. Never ignore a complaint: So many entrepreneurs make the mistake of ignoring customer comments and complaints…

9. Meet with your team: I am not big on meetings for the sake of meetings

10. Survey your customers: Communicating with your customers – and asking them for their thoughts – shows that you really care about them.

Step 1, Identify the problem: You cannot solve a problem until you know exactly what that problem is.
Step 2, Assemble the pertinent facts: Professionals in every field know the importance of gathering specific data/facts

Step 3, Gather general knowledge: This has to do with the expertise you've developed in all aspects of your life - from events, people, marketing, technology, management, communications, selling, entrepreneurship, selling, parenting, the Internet and human psychology

Step 4, Look for combinations: Is there really such a thing as a completely new idea?  Many ideas are simply a new combination of existing elements.

Step 5, Sleep on it: Putting the problem aside for some time can help you renew your idea-producing powers just when you think your creative well has run dry

Step 6, Use a checklist: Checklists can be used to stimulate creative thinking and as a starting point for new ideas.

Step 7, Get feedback: Some entrepreneurs prefer to work alone, but feedback is critical.

Step 8, Team up: Many people think more creatively when working in groups, but they tend to include too many people.
Step 9, Give new ideas a chance: The creative process is a TWO stage process.

Step 10, Define success: Always set metrics. Define what is the least amount of sales you would accept for this product to be a success.

The Email That Could Change Your Life


The premise of the email was this:


The author researched the top 10 starters for the Eastern and Western All-Star basketball teams to find out how much money they made this year - which came to a whopping $224 million. Not bad for 10 players.

The Truth Behind All Epic Success Stories


But of course, it's not quite this simple. And when you think about it, pretty quickly you can see why.

What Does This Mean for You?


The truth is, success isn't a one-hit wonder; it's a slow burn. Seemingly "overnight successes" are generally people who have been grinding for years before they made it big - even if it seems like it came easy.

Your Next Steps


As I mentioned earlier, "the success you're capable of relies on a thirst for growth, and the motivation to constantly better yourself."

Secondly, you must constantly be learning and growing as a person.


And the best kind of learning comes from real life experience. I hope you agree.

Screeeeeech.

I can hear some of you hitting the brakes in your mind.

“Selling? I hate selling. I’m terrible at selling. And besides, selling is for sleazy, slicked-hair salesmen like Alec Baldwin in Glengarry Glen Ross.”

You show them the benefits. You give them a deadline. You mention the consequences for missing said deadline. Can you see that you are always selling, persuading, and convincing?

Here’s what I learned watching the master at work.

1) Pump-Up the Positive Past
Focus on the prospect’s positive results (acknowledge what they have already accomplished)Prove the concept (that your system works)Demonstrate your expertise (solve a problem for them, thus proving your system)
2) Gap-Up the Present Reality
Show them the gap between where they are and where they want to beShow them what’s wrong with what they are doing nowShow them they are good at X, but need help with Y… and that Y is the most important variable in their future success
3) Set-Up the Future (“Future Pace”)
Show them you know secrets that will change their life (solve another problem)Show them what their life will be like in the future once they’ve used your solutionShow social proof (sprinkle in case studies proving it will work for the prospect)

A recipe is only as good as the ingredients you use.

1. What You Do


Have you ever visited a website, browsed around, read their blog, and still walked away wondering what they do?

Tip: Make sure it’s concrete and easy to understand. Something like:
Provide training and coachingCreate inspirational and entertaining mediaSell shoes
2. The Problem You Solve


Even if you sell clothes or shoes, you solve a problem. Maybe your customers can’t get fit anywhere else. Maybe they can’t find styles that express their personality. Maybe they need outfits look great the moment you pull them out of the dryer or suitcase.

3. The End Result People Walk Away With


This is the real value you offer. After doing business with you, what do your customers get? You want to shape this into a promise that’s:

Relevant—growing out of the exact problems you solve

Specific—itemizing measurable benefits in a specified time frame

Unique—differentiating you from every other option available to your customers

4. Your Target Market


Who is your best customer? It needs to be a group of people who self-identify by the term you use. Ideally, there are magazines and blogs aimed at this group, and they have lots of subscribers and traffic.

5. Your Mission Statement


To be honest, a mission statement isn’t essential to your value proposition. But it does help.

Assuming money is everything. 


It's true: the best things in life are free. But the mortgage, groceries and Internet service aren't. We're hearing stories everywhere about how people are cutting back on non-essentials; but why did it take a financial crisis to do that?Assuming a change in your money situation won't affect the relationship.


This is the flip side of the first assumption. Remember: money doesn't CHANGE anything; it REVEALS everything.Assuming things will turn around by themselves.


Also known as the Ostrich Syndrome. We've all been there: believing that "someone out there" will fix our problems. As FDR said, "When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on."4. Assuming you and your partner look at money the same way.
5. Assuming things will be this way forever.


This is the "Why Bother?" Syndrome, the flip side of the Ostrich Syndrome. When you assume "why bother?", your actions will be half-hearted (or some other part of your anatomy), which will naturally lead to half-success, or less.

If you can show these people proof that others like them have purchased your product or service— and have enjoyed some wonderful benefits as a result of that purchase— you will greatly increase your chances of making a sale.

Before you set out to gather testimonials, make two lists:
Every claim, feature, benefit, and fact about what you are marketing that you want to substantiate.Every doubt, fear, or question that might exist in your prospective customer’s mind that you want to answer.
Now, collect testimonials that specifically substantiate your claims and eliminate your customer’s doubts.

Here’s the four-step method I use to collect testimonials from happy customers:

STEP ONE: Make up a short list of some of your best clients/customers. These are people who you know love your company, as well as your products or services.

STEP TWO: Send these people a very short questionnaire, along with a short cover letter.

STEP THREE: Make the client/customer feedback form simple to answer and easy to return. Enclose a prepaid envelope and format it on one page so it can be easily faxed back.

If you don't know exactly what you want, grab a notebook and pen and use the following prompts get clarity now.  Write whatever comes to mind and don't edit yourself.  The only way to do this "wrong" is to not do it at all.

 

 
Be brutally honest about what it takes.


Get real with yourself on how much time, money and effort anything you say yes to actually takes to get done. Why?
 

Step 3.   Create white space.


I don't know about you, but I find it near impossible to work when there's clutter around.

You don’t have to be outgoing, crazy communicative, and incredibly charismatic to achieve greatness in this life.

A leader’s strength comes from creativity and ideas; not from social skills. But when you’re afraid to come out of your protective shell, you’re missing out on an opportunity. Introverts can be great leaders if they leverage their strengths, and cultivate some of their flaws.

1. Acknowledge the Strength of Empathy

The force of empathy is strong with introverts. Extroverts may be the better speakers, however, introverts are great listeners.

2. Communicate One-On-One

Most introverts don’t like speaking in front of an audience, but they’re good at making connections with fewer people.

3. Don’t Throw Away Me-Time

An extrovert gets his strength from socializing. That’s why extrovert leaders are so appreciated in their organizations.

4. Lay Your Cards on the Table

Most teams are used to working with extrovert leaders. Your employees might be surprised by your quiet approach.

5. Use Technology

Do you prefer writing emails instead of face-to-face interactions? Then, technology is your best friend.

6. Fake It!

You don’t have to feel great when giving that presentation, but you do have to fake it.

7. Get Out of That Box

Your home is your comfort zone.

8. Rely on Your Reason

When you notice a conflict within your team, you won’t feel good about getting in the middle of the situation and confronting people’s opinions.

9. Practice Communication

Some introverts prefer written communication, while others choose to</googleplay:description><googleplay:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/f639356624fe1bbe5773de68f52a726b.jpg"/><googleplay:explicit>No</googleplay:explicit></item><item><title>Develop These 4 Habits, If You Want to Be More Productive</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/user/succezzcoach/develop-these-4-habits-if-you-want-to-be_4</link><description><![CDATA[How did we, as a culture, get so obsessed with being so productive at work?

1. Stop wasting time.

This one’s a no-brainer, but you’d be surprised how many ways there are to waste time. And some of them are done unconsciously. Do you ever find yourself working a full 8 hours, but by the end of the day you haven’t really accomplished anything? Maybe you took care of a few emails and made a couple phone calls, but what about the really important tasks? 

 

2. Do what you really love and be really good at it.

If you’re feeling stuck in work that doesn’t light your creative fire during the day, then it’s probably time to seriously think about what you’re doing and why you’re doing it. What would you rather be doing? What do you dream about doing? Who do you want to be in this lifetime?

 

 

3. Overcome procrastination.

Procrastination stems from the initial feeling of emotional overwhelm. And feeling overwhelmed with work stems from a false fear of something

STEP ONE: FIND &amp; LISTEN


Listen is a buzzword you hear thrown around a lot lately - but what does it actually mean?


Listening is about using social media marketing as a tool to research what people are saying about a topic, right now.

STEP TWO: CONNECT


Connecting is either directly following or sending a connection request to literally connect your profile with the profile of your target customers.

 

STEP THREE:  ORGANIZE


It's true, there is a lot of noise and garbage out there, and if you aren't organizing your connections in social media marketing, you'll quickly get swept into it, and social media marketing will become a time-management nightmare.


STEP FOUR: SHARE &amp; ENGAGE


When you've done the leg work to know who you are engaging with to and why you are engaging with them, the time you spend in social media marketing will be much more productive and useful.

STEP FIVE: INVITE


Let's recap a minute. You have:


-Found your target audience and listened to what they really want

-Connected with them and organized them accordingly

-Engaged with them - both by sharing about yourself and getting to know them

Sort of like how you might buy billboard space on the side of the highway or a TV advertisement spot in a local market

ACTUALLY, BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING...


First thing's first, you need to include a link to your product / service in your profile bio. And if your bio section is otherwise empty, add a short benefit-driven description as well.

#1 RESEARCH NICHE INFLUENCERS


You probably already know who your competitors. It doesn't hurt to give them a follow so you can keep up with what they're doing.

#2 RESEARCH HASHTAGS


You've probably already done this to some extent. Businesses love appending paragraphs of hashtags to the end of their post captions in hopes that they might increase the "exposure" of the post.


But I'd like to warn you that there is often a disconnect between the hashtags businesses use and the hashtags that their prospects identify with.

#3 ENGAGE WITH YOUR NICHE


So now that you have your new accounts to follow and a list of high-engagement hashtags, it's time to put yourself out there.

WHAT SORT OF RESULTS SHOULD YOU EXPECT?


You'll immediately see an uptick in the growth of your following. You'll also see an increase in website traffic from your Instagram account.

Exposure...

Because everyone tells you that you're supposed to…


While these aren't necessarily bad answers (except that last one), they each come with some pretty noticeable weaknesses:


Advertising can be a very expensive game to play.


The effects of branding and exposure are often difficult to quantify.

ATTRACT YOUR TRIBE


Why do business owners get so excited about social media? Because billions of people are using it.

HUNT THEM DOWN


You should not be using social media as a soapbox for your brand. Rather than broadcasts, think of your posts as conversation starters.

KEEP ATTRACTING YOUR TRIBE


Once you've got that Facebook like or Twitter follow it's time to sell some product/service, right?

KEEP SOLID ANALYTICS


I really only have two things to say about keeping stats and analytics...

 

DON'T DO IT ALL YOURSELF


Social media is probably the biggest time vampire available on earth right now (besides maybe certain binge-able Netflix shows).

Manifesting a Great Life

 
Self-Sabotage #1: Procrastination 


Putting off until tomorrow what you could do today is a sure-fire way to get misfortune in your career and cause unwanted stress in your personal relationships at home. We often procrastinate because we don't know something, are not interested in the task, or might be overwhelmed, afraid of success, failure, or change. 

Self-Sabotage #2: Overeating 


Everyone wants to be thin and nice looking. Everyone wants to be healthy and fit. So why are 68% of Americans overweight? 


Self-Sabotage #3: Spending Too Much Money 


We all have personal finance goals. They might be to have a home of your own, save for college for the kids, or bank enough money for an early retirement. However, if you spend your money carelessly, you will never be able to save towards these goals.

Or how many times have you told your own self to keep your chin up and that things would look better in due time?


I think we've all experienced and done this at some point.

It gets easier the higher the level you're at… now why do you think this is?

It's simple - it lies in what I like to call "power thinking".


And how is "power thinking" different from "positive thinking"?

It all comes down to this: if your subconscious "financial blueprint" is not "set" for success, nothing you learn, nothing you know, and nothing you do will make much of a difference.


After 14 years of struggle I finally changed my thinking - I went from positive thinking to power thinking - and the first thing I did was commit to my success and played the money game to win!

1. They Have A Sacred Morning Ritual

Highly successful people know that a productive day is built on the foundation of a strong morning.

2. They Identify Their Most Import Task (MIT), Based On Their Values And Goals

The millionaires I interviewed were crystal clear on their values and their life goals; they were clear on them long before they became wealthy

3. They Work On Their MIT Early In The Morning Without Interruptions

Highly successful people schedule one to two hours every morning to focus on their MIT.

4. They Eliminate Meetings (Or Keep Them As Short As Possible)

Mark Cuban’s advice to me was short and direct, “Never do meetings unless someone is writing a check.” Highly successful people know that meetings are inefficient time wasters, and time is our most valuable resource

They Schedule Email Processing Times

Highly successful people don’t “check” their email throughout the day; they don’t respond to every buzz of their smartphone to see what landed in their inbox.</googleplay:description><googleplay:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/f639356624fe1bbe5773de68f52a726b.jpg"/><googleplay:explicit>No</googleplay:explicit></item><item><title>Love Plus Logic Equals GREAT Marketing</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/user/succezzcoach/love-plus-logic-equals-great-marketing_4</link><description><![CDATA[the greatest marketers of all are those who love marketing, use logic to track and read results and who understand the value of testing and live it every day.<br /><br />Know Your ABT's<br /><br />If you ask any great marketer the number rule of marketing they will say ALWAYS BE TESTING!<br /><br />What Is Testing<br /><br /><br />In direct response marketing, testing is the process of two or more variations of a single variable offered to prospects simultaneously and coming to some conclusion based on responses.<br /><br />Generally testing will fall into four categories.

Know Your ABT's

If you ask any great marketer the number rule of marketing they will say ALWAYS BE TESTING!

What Is Testing


In direct response marketing, testing is the process of two or more variations of a single variable offered to prospects simultaneously and coming to some conclusion based on responses.

Generally testing will fall into four categories. You should be testing:


o   Copy

o   Product

o   Offer/Price

o   List/Media

Copy: The Message Behind Your Product


The best copy tests are:


o   Subject lines

o   Senders

o   Formats: Long copy vs. short copy or text vs. HTML

o   Leads (the first two to three pages of your copy)

o   Headlines

o   Background colors

o   Graphics

o   Closes (adding a P.S.)

o   And you can test entirely new packages

You hear about dreams dying, but I don't think that is true. I think dreams wither and go hide in a dusty corner of your heart. And that works for a time, because you are too busy to breathe, let alone think of pursuing your dreams and goals.

This is Your Life Too.


Guess what? You don't have to accept it.


But you do have to face it.

Something Shifted.


I had had enough. I wasn't willing to accept that this was my life any more. The pain of my circumstances was greater than the pain of doing something about it. This can feel like it suddenly appears, but the truth is, it has been building for a while. It was like that for me.

Do You Need a Personal Revolution?


If you identified with anything in this article, if you felt your dusty dreams stir, if you shook your head and thought you didn't want to accept your life as is anymore, then I have good news.

Here's what I've learned about teleworking in my time away, including some tech tips to make sure that your office of one keeps chugging along.

Make your own space. 

This is important. Without some separation, you can feel like you're always halfway between working and not, and that's a recipe for a bad work-from-home experience.

Set a schedule. 

Setting a basic schedule can be one of the best things you can do to keep a basic structure to your day. The wonderful world of time management apps has been my best friend in this regard. I use an app called 30/30 to roughly block out the day based on what has to get done. I like that app because it lets you schedule several tasks at once and has a timer - but also lets you be flexible with the blocks in your schedule so that you don't get too stressed out if you run over on a particular task.

Work like you're at the office. 

Try not to schedule doctors' appointments in the middle of the day, or agree to take a shopping trip with a friend in the middle of day. If you're worried about the appearance of slacking off just because you work from home, this will do you no favors.

But make sure you stop working. 

The flip side of making sure your nose is to the grindstone is ensuring that you aren't always holding it there. In the early days of working from home, I was so worried about seeming distant that I worked even more hours than I did at the office and put myself on the road to burnout.

Two Heads Are Better Than One


Basically, you want to identify two categories of competition: direct and indirect competitors.

Same Market - Different Product


While direct competitors are trying to reach the same market, an indirect competitor is somebody who is selling something different but targeting the same market. If you're targeting folks with back pain, an indirect competitor might be yoga lovers. They are selling something different to your same customers.

Collaboration Is Key


A great way to take advantage of both direct and indirect competitors is to invite them as expert panelists. If somebody sells something totally different than what you would ever think about selling, they can make a great advertiser. So someone could be a panelist, an advertiser, or both.

(This was long before the days of Kindle books and print-on-demand.)


And then the strangest thing happened…


People from around the world started to order my book…


From countries I'd never even heard of…


Then I started getting stories from people around the world about how my Permission to Succeed® System changed their lives and turned their businesses around…

The biggest money mistake I see people making is Not getting rid of your head trash around money.


What is your head trash around money?


It's that negative self-talk that tells you…

"I can't do it because…"

So here's what I'd like you to do now…


1. Write down 3 negative beliefs you have about money.


2.

But finding your purpose can be quite challenging since it can be an abstract and ambiguous phenomenon.

It is through this process that I learned that some of my top strengths are my focus, determination, and analytical nature.

Interests

This might seem like an obvious one, and certainly unique to every individual. But even identifying personal interests can be tricky.

What Benefits Others

Now that your top strengths and interests have been identified, you are already light years ahead of most people. Uniting just those two forces, whether as a profession or hobby, can ignite your happiness and success. But to truly find your calling and purpose in life, it is important to leverage those areas for the greater good.

Go Find Your Calling

We all want to wake up in the morning with a clear sense of purpose that guides and gives meaning to our lives.

Owning One's Strengths


A good leader is self-aware and knows their own strengths and weaknesses. They may learn at a young age that they have these characteristics, or they may develop over time.

Acknowledging One's Weaknesses


A good leader acknowledges that everyone as weaknesses and it is nothing to be ashamed of. They openly admit their weaknesses and reveal them to others as needed in order to get help with them.

Controlling Opportunities


A good leader takes educated risks. The education comes from experience.

You Gotta Have Faith


If you feel your talents and skills can be put to best use in a leadership role, you need to have faith in yourself to take on the challenges and responsibilities.

Great leaders are sometimes born, but more often they are made through the opportunities they create for themselves through self-awareness, effort and all they have to offer others.

But in fact, just a week later, one new high-end client changed everything.


Now not only was he no longer experiencing this feeling, but his entire outlook for the future changed.  Now, his situation wasn't radically different, but his perception of the future was.

 
#1 Notice that False Future Projection (FFS) is happening…


When things aren't going well or we are in a slump of sorts… we project the current feeling and the current situation into the future.

#2 Let Go of the Story


Once I detect that I am in False Future Projection, I know that any story of the future I create is going to be false.

#3 Feel the Feeling Fully


So as soon as I notice myself going into the story, I close my eyes, and I just feel what I am feeling.

#4 What's the First Step I Can Take to Change the Situation?


I am now experiencing so much more freedom from my current situation because my false projection of the future is loosened.  The next step I take is to bring myself back into the present with my actions.</googleplay:description><googleplay:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/f639356624fe1bbe5773de68f52a726b.jpg"/><googleplay:explicit>No</googleplay:explicit></item><item><title>Top 4 Ways to Stay in Business  Long Enough to Succeed</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/user/succezzcoach/top-4-ways-to-stay-in-business-long-enou_5</link><description><![CDATA[From what I've seen since talking to small business owners, most businesses fail for 2 simple reasons:<br />The business owners quit   The business owners sabotage their success and thus quit be default<br />So, what can you do to not only stay in the game, but also play full out in this game we call business?<br /><br /><br />Today I'd like to share that with you.<br /><br />1.

So, what can you do to not only stay in the game, but also play full out in this game we call business?


Today I'd like to share that with you.

1. Know the minimum amount you need to earn in order for you to be satisfied.


This is not a number that will make you ecstatic.  This is the minimal amount of money you need to live a simple and satisfying life.

2. Set clear expectations for your journey towards success.


You started your business because you wanted to help people.

3.  Everything takes longer than you think.


Businesses are like remodel projects - they take twice as long as projected and we have to invest double the money into it.

4. Stop focusing on the things that won't really get you to where you want to go.


We all want to get masterful at our craft.  After all, sharing our gifts with the world is what we started our businesses for in the first place.

"Option A" is to hire ghostwriters to write your e-books and other information products for you.

Option B" is to sell other people's info


"Option C" is to publish "public domain" information, something else I have done with some success.

I have used this method with success in my own online info marketing business. But it does have an inherent problem.

#1: Reprint and sell the work.

#2: Annotated, expanded, and illustrated editions.

#3: Compile.

#4: Crib.

if you want to get started in information marketing, but don't have the time, temperament, or talent to write a book or a course, find good instructional materials in the public domain.

The Uncertainty Barrier


The underlying belief here is "Success isn't guaranteed - so I will probably fail".


2. The Loneliness Barrier


This belief here is "I will have to do everything myself. It's me versus the world, and there's no real support".

3. The Self-Esteem Barrier


You may secretly hold this belief - "I'm not smart enough, tough enough, or rich enough to make it".
4. The Trust Barrier


The problem here comes from believing "You can't trust anyone these days".

How to Break Through

 
It's true that not all people are trustworthy, so take sensible steps to protect yourself with written agreements where possible. In addition, accept that at some point you're going to have to trust somebody. Build trust with others over time by consistently delivering on your promises, and acknowledging when they deliver on theirs.Have trust in yourself that you'll be able to deal with the disappointment when others don't keep their promises.

Hard work is NOT always an essential ingredient for financial, professional and personal success.

Here are 4 essential (and often overlooked) ingredients to success that are each as important - if not more important - as hard work:
Purpose


So you have clarity on WHAT your main goal in life is…


But are you aware of WHY you want to achieve it?Passion


It's in our programming to keep doing things that give us joy and fulfillment - and your personal and career goals should reflect this.
 
Self-Determination


Vince Lombardi once said, "The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will."

 
 
Confidence


When you have a clear vision of what you want, and complete confidence that you can achieve it, your mental blocks are easier to dissolve.
 

To Motivate Yourself to Success


Then once you get going, you need to keep up your level of motivation. I've noticed an alarming pattern among my students lately…

Your Lead Generation Website


Use your site as a lead generation tool in order to build your email marketing list. In this way, you can communicate with your list on regular basis, presenting your niche customers with information, products and services that will prove you know what you are talking about.


Work with Joint Venture Partners


Working with JVs gives you other opportunities to show yourself as a thought leader.

 

Syndicate Your Best Articles


You might even get some guest blogging opportunities in which you write articles for some of the top blogs in your niche to show what you know

Write a Book


One of the best ways to give yourself instant expertise is to write a book and publish it on Amazon. It doesn't have to be an encyclopedia of everything you know about your niche.

Offer High-Value Webinars


You can also offer high-value webinars to your community to share your expertise. Use the webinar to give them the "what" to solve a problem.

3. Cap the Number of Units You Sell


Another way to create urgency and boost your conversion rate is by limiting your offer to a set number of customers.

4. Show Why Your Offer is Unique


No matter what you're selling, you probably have competition.

5. Presell the Offer 


Instead of having your prospect's first exposure to your product being via a sales page, you should spend a few days or a week preselling the offer.

6.  Avoid Hype 


If you have a great product, then you don't need to exaggerate your claims to sell a boatload.

7. Don't Mislead Prospects 


In other words, be honest.

if you're offering a membership site, then don't hide the forced continuity.

Your next step is to write a 800-1,000 word article that's directly related to the product you're selling. You want to provide useful yet incomplete information, so that readers need to buy the product in order to fully solve their problems.

Step 3: Craft a Click-Worthy Byline

Next, you need to create a kick butt byline (AKA author's bio) that persuades readers to click on your affiliate link.

Step 4: Circulate the Article


Finally, your last step is to get your article in front of your target market and as many of them as possible.

Online media ads are everywhere.  They can be ads for "related content" you see at the end of an article you've read.  Or they can show up on the top lines of Google searches.  They can be in just about any spare space on a website.

Step 1: Start with the Right Mindset and Strategy


The first thing you have to get clear about is at the very foundation of success in the traffic buying business

Step 2: Add The Right Prospects


Once you're clear on your budget, the next thing you have to understand is who your prospect is.  Who is that specific person you're trying to connect with. Whose life are you trying to make better?  What are they dealing with?
Step 3: Mix in the Right Message


Once you know who you're talking to, you need to set up an ad campaign specifically for them.  One that will attract them like your kids to that pan of brownies!

When I get hired by a client to help fix their ad campaigns, I always check to make sure the steps of this recipe are in place.

4. Promotion


There are so many tactics you can use to promote your product or service. You can use:
text - websites, blogs, ads, news articles, print, old-school mail, sponsorshipsvideo - found on all sorts of websites: blogs, YouTube, social mediaother media - television, radio, podcasts

A fifth "P" that you want to include in your marketing is the Personal aspect of your story.


Even big companies have stories. Just look at the catalog for LL Bean which tells the story of Leon Leonwood Bean, way back to 1911. Old LL returned from a hunting trip with cold wet feet, which gave him the idea to create a more effective outdoor boot. And the rest is history

Whether or not you can make it onlineIf you'll ever be able to quit your regular job

 Why it's taking so long to start making decent money

 Whether or not that new thing a guru is promoting may be better than your idea

 Why anyone would buy anything from you when there's so much free online

 How far ahead of you others in your niche already are

 Whether you should forget the whole thing


 
The Right Mindset

Fear of Failure

The Key to Succeeding Online

Focus is the Key

Taking the Easy Road or the Loophole

They're buying a dream, or at least trying to.

Now if you really want to blame something, rather than blaming yourself, blame what I call the "Internet Marketing Mafia."


Now, I know this sounds like an old gangster movie, but there really is a group of guys who secretly meet behind closed doors to figure out some new trick to hack their way to big bucks.

The #1 Thing to Avoid to Have a Successful Online Business


Now, this might surprise you…but unless you avoid this one thing, you're in for some serious headaches, heartaches, and not making the money or having the impact you really want.

, AFOSs never finish what they start, because once they run into roadblocks or reversals (and they always do), they quit and give up and try to find the next shiny object put forth by the next IM dude.


Bottom line: AFOSs never experience the true financial success that they desire, and never have the impact and transformation they know they're capable of.

Would you just start slapping boards together and hope a house shows up?

 

Here are some tips to help you find the right mentor to reduce mistakes and grow your business…

1. Start with Your Big Dream.


What exactly do you want to accomplish?


2. Ask yourself: "Who can help me get it?"


I like to answer the question "Who?" before "How?"

 

3. Answer The 2 Mentorship Questions.


There are only 2 important questions when it comes to finding the right mentor:


1. Are they where you want to be?

2. Can they actually SHOW you how to get there?

 

4. Study their students' success stories.


Does the mentor have students who they've helped?

5. Make a decision and go for it.


Goethe wrote: "Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it."

There will always be lots of things going on - the world is full of distractions.

everyone who finds success in it aims to hit a minimum of seven main focus areas, which we call the Seven Pillars of Authority Marketing.

Branding &amp; Omnipresence

Building a brand isn’t just about your company’s brand, but your personal brand.

A commitment to creating a significant amount of high-quality content, written specifically for your target audience is the best way to craft a strong omnipresence

Getting your name and your company’s name mentioned in media is important because most people don’t believe what you say about yourself, but they will believe what others say about you.

Speaking

The best way to enforce your authority position and generate high-quality leads almost instantaneously is speaking.

Lead Generation

Marketing mastermind Dan Kennedy often talks about the difference between selling and prescribing.

Referral Marketing

If your best customers went to a cocktail party, would they brag about you to their friends? There are two types of referral marketing: client referrals and referrals from influencers

Events

The most successful businesses have tribes of customers. They create these tribes because they build relationships by engaging their clients to the highest level possible

Honesty

Whatever ethical plane you hold yourself to, when you are responsible for a team of people, its important to raise the bar even higher.

Delegate

Finessing your brand vision is essential to creating an organized and efficient business, but if you don’t learn to trust your team with that vision, you might never progress to the next stage. 

Communication

Knowing what you want accomplished may seem clear in your head, but if you try to explain it to someone else and are met with a blank expression, you know there is a problem.

Positive Attitude

You want to keep your team motivated towards the continued success of the company, and keep the energy levels up

Creativity

Some decisions will not always be so clear-cut. You may be forced at times to deviate from your set course and make an on the fly decision.

Intuition

When leading a team through uncharted waters, there is no roadmap on what to do

There are support groups and places to go to be with people experiencing the same issues

 

Family history heritage---past influence present---values change as times change---good communication is a learned skill--watch certain family shows or read romance novels father or mother know exactly what to say but that's not reality and you can say some hurtful things even if you don't mean it

 

Tell a little about family background—how behaviors passed from 1 generation to the next—product of the home you come from—if come from close knit family—will recreate that with spouse and children

 

Berne’s model is a three part ego-state model.   An ego state is

 
“A consistent pattern of feeling and experience directly related to a corresponding consistent pattern of behaviour”.
 

There are three ego states in Berne’s model:
Parent,Adult,Child. 
 

Ego states are ‘things’ not names. They are a set and related; thoughts, feelings and behaviours.

 

Communication between people can be from one ego state to a different one or from one ego state to the same ego state.

Yet many entrepreneurs do not take the time to really listen to their team. Many blame it on the widely growing virtual environment. There are more companies operating virtually now than ever before.<br /><br />Easy as 1, 2, 3!<br /><br /><br />Here are the questions you must ask everyday:<br /><br />1.  What did you do today, and what were the results?<br /><br />2.  What were the problems and challenges?<br /><br />3.  Do you have any questions for me?<br /><br /><br />While a boss is mostly concerned with outcomes, a leader feels responsible for the process of that outcome and the people who see it out. Check out some major points that distinguish a leader from a boss:<br /><br />1. Leaders lead rather than rule.<br /><br />2. Leaders listen and speak rather than command.<br /><br />3.

Easy as 1, 2, 3!


Here are the questions you must ask everyday:

1.  What did you do today, and what were the results?

2.  What were the problems and challenges?

3.  Do you have any questions for me?


While a boss is mostly concerned with outcomes, a leader feels responsible for the process of that outcome and the people who see it out. Check out some major points that distinguish a leader from a boss:

1. Leaders lead rather than rule.

2. Leaders listen and speak rather than command.

3. Leaders motivate rather than terrify.

4. Leaders teach and learn rather than expect and ignore.

5. Leaders take part rather than stay aside

6. Leaders reprimand rather than scold or shout.

7. Leaders establish equal relationships.

What they have is more Focus

There is something called the 10,000 hour rule. What that means is it takes 10 hours and hours to perfect your skill

How many of you have heard the story about how Bill Gates would sneak into the computer rooms and spend hours working on computers--- what he had was focus.

When you are passionate about something you spend hours doing it and perfect your skill.

Here is something to think about--- there is only 24 hours in a day--- how are you going to manage your time so that you become more focused on a project for you and perfect your skills is something that you are passionate about.

It’s a critical question and one you need to ponder carefully. And it’s not necessarily as easy to answer as you might think. Consider what Charles Revlon had to say about his: “In the factories we make perfume, but in the stores we sell hope.”

The business you are REALLY in is “MARKETING!”

When the perfume maker becomes a marketer of fragrance; the jewelry storeowner becomes a marketer of fine jewelry; the carpet cleaner becomes a marketer of carpet cleaning services; and the chiropractor a marketer of chiropractic care, etc., he or she takes a quantum leap up in income potential.

Being in those businesses (i.e., marketing those services) was.

This attitude or view or definition of who you are and what your business REALLY is has enormous impact on how you allocate your time and energy.

it is infinitely easier to delegate the doing than the marketing in just about every business, because there are plenty of good doers who are terrible marketers, who, because of that, can be hired for cheap.

In fact — by focusing MORE on becoming an accomplished Marketer of things and/or services, you massively increase your potential for wealth and success.

To make it much easier to get past the frogs to my ideal employees, I make sure I can clearly define three things whenever I'm looking to hire someone:

 
The kind of person I wantThe level of the position and, thus, the experience the person needsThe skill set required to do the job

1. A strong sense of urgency. A good employee is someone who understands that deadlines are made to be met and that speed is money.

2. A great work ethic. You want someone who shows up early and is ready to go, someone who is on time for meetings and appointments.

3. Intellect. Your ideal employee is someone with great ideas. Equally important is that the employee is not afraid to express those ideas.

Traditional publishing focuses you on the first strategy, or the Writer's Strategy. With this strategy, you focus on writing a good book and rely on making money from the sale of the book. Unfortunately, most authors make very little money that way.

 

The Marketer's Strategy


The second strategy is the Marketer's Strategy. With this strategy, you focus on developing your book to get a quality message out to your marketplace and to attract high caliber clients and income with relatively few copies of your book.

 

The Investor's Strategy


The third strategy is what I call the Investor's Strategy. This is the ultimate wealth building strategy and retirement funding solution. For many entrepreneurs and professionals of all kinds.  This strategy acknowledges the true wealth inside you, recognizing that what you know is probably worth a thousand times more than what you're currently doing with it.

Use the Market to Judge


First, I learned you can use the market as a judge - as a measuring stick - but if you are operating in an unsophisticated market - from a direct response point of view - one of the easiest ways to grow your business is to raise your prices.

How to Start Your Funnel


Second - and I get asked this question all the time - I do recommend, when possible, starting your funnel with a high-priced product instead of a low-priced product.

Your Product, "Light"


So after you start with the high-priced product, what do you do next?

from enhancing the quality of our relationships, to bolstering self-confidence, achieving greater work performance, and attaining an overall improvement in our quality of life.
Coaching is an effective approach to goal attainment and personal development

 The coaching experience helped clients be more effective by teaching them how to set concrete, measurable goals made up of specific and manageable steps instead of being overwhelmed by large tasks that seemed too daunting or overwhelming to undertake

 Using a collaborative effort to help the client identify and take action on creating change in his life seems to be effective based on the research results

 Asking challenging questions to encourage the client to discover new ways to approach problems is a key element of effective coaching
As a certified Law of Attraction coach, my work with clients is focused around supporting them in creating a state of alignment between the inner world of their thoughts, feelings and beliefs, and the external reality they want to call into being.

What do great leaders do differently?

And how can you become a great leader even if you’re an employee?

About 10 years ago, bestselling author Simon Sinek made a profound discovery that changed his entire view on the world and how he operates in it. His discovery was this:

"All the great inspiring leaders and organizations in the world, whether it’s Apple or Martin Luther King or the Wright brothers, they all think, act and communicate the exact same way.

Getting It Just Right

One of the best ways to put yourself head and shoulders above the competition even in a crowded niche is to link yourself with key companies and influencers.


This way you can offer new products and services, increase your authority in your niche, and earn more income all at the same time.  

Affiliate marketing is an excellent way to get to know the top people and companies in your industry.  There are a number of affiliate marketplaces that allow you to link up with top influencers, companies and products all in one location.


The main ones for digital products are Clickbank and JV Zoo.

 

Trust Is a Must


However, you MUST be sure that you believe in any product you offer to your community or sell in general.


You should buy the product and test it out. You have a responsibility to make sure it lives up to and surpasses the marketing promises. Even call customer support to make sure that if someone needs help once they buy the product, they will get it.

Look for the Obvious


One other useful way to find local partners is to offer an interesting workshop or talk at your local Chamber of Commerce.


They will do all the marketing and promotion for the talk. You just need to deliver a great presentation and continue to build your reputation.

What if they actually apply it and their business beats ours?" Janie asked when we finished a meeting with one of direct competitors.


The following is an easy 10-step formula to profit from your competitors.

1)  Inserts: Most of your competitors will have some sort of physical product they send to their customers.

2)  Have lunch: Take your competitor to lunch. Do not start the lunch off with bombarding that person for answer.

3)  Form an association: This is a great way to get together a few times a year and discuss the state of the industry you are in.

4)  Start a newsletter or magazine: By starting a newsletter and/or magazine

5)  Accountability partners: Use your competitors to keep you on track.

6)  Joint Venture: By promoting each other's products via email you are able to make money, get new customers and leads and obtain valuable R&amp;D.

7)  Become your competitors' customer: So many entrepreneurs make the mistake of asking for complimentary to subscriptions and products.

8)  Social Media: Be their PR agent on social media.

9)  Conferences: Invite them to speak at your next conference.

10)  Visit their office: By scheduling a trip to their office, you get to experience the culture.

 

If you constantly strive to give more than you get - you will come out the winner.

I would often see it laying off to the side of the road. Partially covered with dirt, it didn’t glisten or glow like the secrets I thought I wanted<br /><br /> <br /><br />The secret is this:<br /><br />The only way you get the life you want is to make small investments in your dreams, each and every day you are given to live.<br /><br />Your future is not determined by luck, by flashes of brilliance or even by “who you know.” It is determined by your willingness to make small investments consistently in the direction of your dreams.<br /><br />Some people call these “investments” habits.<br /><br />The odd part is that humans are already “hardwired” to go after what they want.

I would often see it laying off to the side of the road. Partially covered with dirt, it didn’t glisten or glow like the secrets I thought I wanted

 

The secret is this:

The only way you get the life you want is to make small investments in your dreams, each and every day you are given to live.

Your future is not determined by luck, by flashes of brilliance or even by “who you know.” It is determined by your willingness to make small investments consistently in the direction of your dreams.

Some people call these “investments” habits.

The odd part is that humans are already “hardwired” to go after what they want. So if knowing “what you want” is a challenge for you, it probably means one of two things is true:
You haven’t done the work to “reverse” the training you’ve received. So you aren’t in touch with what you want.What you say you want is not actually what you want.
Once you know what you want, then all that’s left is a simple decision:

Will you live habits that support your journey towards what you want or ones that obstruct it?

There’s far more power in these small habits than it appears.

If you truly want to become the best possible version of yourself, then do the thing that very few people are willing to do. That thing is to commit to small habits, daily.

Many people want to use the Law of Attraction to bring material items into their life. The Law of Attraction will works with your core beliefs. Thus, it works best when you focus on achieving harmony. When you have harmony, you will know what is truly important and can begin to manifest

 

Relax your mind.Meditate for 5 to 10 minutes.

Be sure about what you want and when you do decide don't doubt yourself.

Ask the Universe for it. Make your request. Send a picture of what you want to the Universe.

Write your wish down. Start with "I am so happy and grateful now that..." and finish the sentence (or paragraph) telling the Universe what it is that you want.

Feel it. Feel the way you will now after receiving your wish.

Show gratitude. Write down all the things the Universe has given you.

Trust the Universe. Imagine an alternate dimension that is almost exactly like the real world but whatever you truly desire comes true in an instant.

Am I saying you can’t go it alone? No. But the odds of success as a strict solopreneur who only deals with individuals are stacked against you.

 

Work Together

Don’t mistakenly assume that you have to figure out every piece of your business puzzle on your own. That’s a newbie mistake. You’re not going to be great at everything. But where you’re weak, someone else is strong. Work together. This benefits everyone.

Social Support in Business

It’s good to have friends you can turn to for help — not just for advice, but for doing some actual income-generating business together.

This is not the time to focus less on marketing … rather the opposite. The beauty of marketing in the 21st century is that many of the marketing channels available to you are cheap, easy and fast to execute.<br /><br /><br />The cost of entry has never been lower (and I am not just talking email marketing), there has never been more niche markets available and it has never been easier with today's technology to accurately measure the impact of your marketing efforts and make educated decisions about going forward to plan cohesive multi-channeled marketing campaigns.<br /><br /><br />Smart companies that continue to grow and prosper during hard economic times understand the value of multi-channel marketing:<br /><br /> <br /><br />Create strong customer relationships. Perhaps one of the greatest benefits of multi-channel marketing is that it provides great customer relationship building opportunities.<br /><br />Choose efforts that help you pick the low hanging fruit. Never forget to market most often and most strongly to those loyal customers who buy from you.<br /><br />Some forms of marketing don't cost you a dime. You can create online buzz about your product through social media.<br /><br />Want to drum up great PR? Get to know the media.

This is not the time to focus less on marketing … rather the opposite. The beauty of marketing in the 21st century is that many of the marketing channels available to you are cheap, easy and fast to execute.


The cost of entry has never been lower (and I am not just talking email marketing), there has never been more niche markets available and it has never been easier with today's technology to accurately measure the impact of your marketing efforts and make educated decisions about going forward to plan cohesive multi-channeled marketing campaigns.


Smart companies that continue to grow and prosper during hard economic times understand the value of multi-channel marketing:

 

Create strong customer relationships. Perhaps one of the greatest benefits of multi-channel marketing is that it provides great customer relationship building opportunities.

Choose efforts that help you pick the low hanging fruit. Never forget to market most often and most strongly to those loyal customers who buy from you.

Some forms of marketing don't cost you a dime. You can create online buzz about your product through social media.

Want to drum up great PR? Get to know the media. Of the many channels of marketing, public relations is one that every business should embrace.

Don't go it alone. Many small business balk at the idea of joint ventures.

If you see a company, perhaps one of your competitors advertising often and in multiple channels - chances are it is a healthy company. Study that company, is there something they are doing that you can implement.</googleplay:description><googleplay:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/f639356624fe1bbe5773de68f52a726b.jpg"/><googleplay:explicit>No</googleplay:explicit></item><item><title>4 Keys to a Profitable Partnership</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/user/succezzcoach/4-keys-to-a-profitable-partnership_3</link><description><![CDATA[There are four keys to our — and any —  successful JV:<br />Making the most of other people’s poorly used customersGreat reward for doing it (money, fame, etc.)Bringing something unique to the person with whom you are doing businessHaving the skill of deal making<br />Other people’s poorly used customers<br /><br />Bedros has a big list of over 50,000 personal trainers.

Other people’s poorly used customers

Bedros has a big list of over 50,000 personal trainers. I have two lists: one at Internet Independence, of 10,000 people, and another at ETR, of over 100,000 people. But neither of these audiences received the high-end, hands-on coaching they needed to build an online business. 

 

Show Your Potential Partner the Great Reward for Doing It (money, fame, etc.)

Will you bring them more sales and new customers? Can you show them how to maximize the value of the customers they currently have?

 

Bring Something Unique to the Partnership

If your potential partner can do everything that you can, they don’t need you (unless they are simply out of time or energy to take action on their ideas).

 

Make the Deal

This is where you must sell them on the venture. Prove the profits that are coming their way.</googleplay:description><googleplay:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/f639356624fe1bbe5773de68f52a726b.jpg"/><googleplay:explicit>No</googleplay:explicit></item><item><title>Two New Weapons for Your  Facebook Marketing Arsenal</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/user/succezzcoach/two-new-weapons-for-your-facebook-market_3</link><description><![CDATA[Advertising has always been an incredibly useful tool for businesses to generate leads.<br /><br /><br /> <br /><br />As the internet grows, traditional advertising faces problems like:<br />Phone books have become obsolete.Newspaper readership has gone down.

Learning


When was the last time you learned something new? I mean brand new. So many of us are consumed with our businesses and family that we stop the learning process. The lack of learning is so bad for our business, our families and our mental health.

 

Earning


We have all been there. Thinking that working like a dog will make us rich and happy.


Well, how's that working out for you?

 

Serving


Call this category whatever you want - serving, giving, volunteering; it does not matter as long as this is the selfless you.

Types of posts


There are a wide variety of posts you can use across different social media platforms. Here are some that Sarah recommends, specifically for Facebook and Twitter. Some of these can translate over to other platforms as well.

Facebook

 

Twitter:

 

Do You Have What It Takes to Go Viral?


The most commonly shared social media are either posts that offer practical and useful information and posts or tweets that arouse emotion (positive and negative).

Join the WarriorForum.com and list your services under the "Warriors for Hire" section.

4. Use Your Powers of Persuasion

5. Start a Membership Site 


Instead of creating a series of related products to sell, you can create a membership site that you update with content daily, weekly or monthly (depending on your niche).
6. IMag Your Way to Profits 


If you really enjoy writing, then creating an Inbox Magazine is for you. That's because some of the most popular imags are those where the owner write on a regular schedule - for sure weekly, but in some cases more.

7. Create a Profitable Autoresponder Course


Finally, you can make money by creating a multi-part e-course that's embedded with links to affiliate offers. Then you create a squeeze page to persuade people to join your e-course and start driving traffic to this page.

So whether you're using your content to pull in traffic or you're selling content to fill up your bank account with cash, your business depends on your ability to create a lot of great content.

 
Create a Good Outline 


If you start with a good outline, then you'll stay focused because you know exactly what you need to write about. And this focus will help you write more quickly.

 2) Use Speech-to-Text Technology

 

This as been a true life saver for so many of my private high-end clients that have great stories to tell and content to share, but just can't get started sometimes.

Get a good microphone. Your software will work better if your words sound clear as you say them into your microphone. If you prefer, you can get a headset microphone for convenience.Train the software. Yes, you will need to spend some time

training the software to recognize the way you speak (your

voice, accent, etc). So while this does take some time upfront, in the long run you'll save time once you've gone through all the training with the software.
3) Write Fast Without Editing

 

One reason that people often can't write very fast is because they stop and edit nearly every sentence as the go.


However, while editing is necessary, it's something you should do AFTER you've created the piece (not during the writing process).

The basic difference between a closed system and an open one is how it reacts to change. A closed system tries to remain static. It’s rigid and follows the same rules even though they are no longer appropriate. There is no flow of information, so people don’t share thoughts, interests, or dreams. Thus, no new ideas come into the system to keep it fresh and vibrant.

It’s like living in a house with all the windows and doors boarded up. It’s stifling inside. People can’t flourish — they can only exist because the family culture doesn’t support the natural changes that occur as kids grow older and mature into the people they are intended to be. 

Looking for Opportunities

In contrast, an open family system looks for opportunities to meet each new reality that comes along and to make changes to accommodate them. 

Healthy families dream together about what they want to create in the future. They talk about plans for individual family members and for the family as a whole. They strategize about how they will meet their goals and they look to the future with open arms.

1. People Are Celebrated

A few years ago, Sherri confided in me that her daughter had just told her she was a lesbian. It was difficult for her and her husband at first. They hadn’t been expecting that news.

2. Relationships Are Nurtured

In a healthy family system, relationships are strong. Open families welcome spouses into the nuclear family and make them feel valued and important. They know it is essential to incorporate new members into their culture and to give them time to assimilwhoate their ways.

Why is that?


Generating leads and converting them into lifelong raving fans which I call the "FREEDOM Formula."

Find


The F in FREEDOM, stands for finding the right customers and prospects.

 

 
Register


This refers to getting them to register to receive more information from you.

 

Engage


Now once you've gotten them to register, the first E in FREEDOM stands for engaging them in a conversation.

 

Enroll


Once you've established a relationship and have built some rapport, you then want to enroll them in your offer, so that's the second E - Enrolling them in your offer, your course, your training, your event or a consultation.

 

Deliver


Delivering an amazing experience primarily involves good communication so that they know what to expect, what they're going to get and when and how it will be delivered.
Offer More


If they have an amazing experience, and they get the results that you promised them, then they're going to be more likely to buy from you a second time, and a third time, etc.


Maintain


Finally, the M in FREEDOM stands for maintaining customers for life.

They have a carefully engineered process that build momentum over several months… and it ends with crowds lined up outside their stores, salivating over the next iWhatever.

Step 1: Turn Your Marketing into an Event

OK, the first mistake most people make is they don't actually plan their launch.

Step 2: Use a Prelaunch Sequence to Build Anticipation

Your prelaunch sequence is the secret sauce that builds anticipation… this is a series of free prelaunch content that you release over a period of seven to ten days.

Step 3: Leverage the Power of Conversation

Conversations are a lot more interesting than monologues.

Step 4: Tap into Joint Venture Partners

One of the fastest ways to turbocharge your business is to tap into the power of "other people's lists"…

Step 5: Opening and Closing Your Launch

Of course, the whole point of your launch is to make sales. Your prelaunch content leads into the "open cart"… which is when you open your shopping cart up for orders.

How did you feel? What did you do about it? Perhaps it made you feel angry, frustrated and upset and you kept it inside. Or perhaps you complained to Human Resources or some higher authority within your company. Or did you yell back, or walk away or even quit your job?


These may seem like the only options available to you and, if you're anything like most of the people I work with, you will have felt powerless and kept everything to yourself, resulting in feelings of stress, anxiety and frustration that lead to physical pain.

Step 1 - It's Really Not About You


The first step is to recognize that when someone yells at you or makes you feel bad, it's because their own insecurities are coming up.

Step 2 - Ask Yourself These Questions


The second step is to ask yourself some questions:

 
What it is that you need to learn about yourself from this situation?Why have you attracted this particular situation into your life?How is this person making you feel?What insecurities and fears has this person triggered in you?


Turning the focus away from the other person and their behavior in this way helps you to take your power back and stop feeling like a victim.

There are a lot of moving parts. There are many things that have to get done. Things have to get done in a certain order. And things never seem to go as planned.


But let's imagine that in spite of all those obstacles, you decide that you still want to do it.



The great part about building your business, however, is that when you follow what I call a "Leveraged Ascension Plan", you can actually live in your house as you build it.

For example, I teach my clients about the concept of Leverage, which means "using what you HAVE to get what you WANT."


You have the time you have.

You have the money you have.

You have the resources you have.

You have the knowledge you have.


But guess what? Someone knows how to fix your problem.


Find that someone who's helped other people solve the same problem you're facing. Seek them out and hire them or take a course from them.


The bottom line is, you don't have to work so hard on your business in order to have the house you really want.


After all your hard work, you don't have to end up with a house that's drafty.


Find a mentor, get a plan, and take inspired action!

You will find that it is much easier to make decisions about how to run your business, including whether an advertising campaign or your marketing methods are appropriate and truly representative of you and your organization.

Know Your "Why"

Your mission statement should be a formal, short, written statement of your company's/organization's purpose. In a nutshell, it should answer the question "Why does my company exist?"

Once you have your mission statement laid out, you can turn to it for help guiding your company's actions, laying out its primary goals, offering direction, and directing decision-making.


After your mission statement is finalized and written, post it a spot where everyone who walks into your office or visits your website can see it.

 

writing a mission statement is not enough. What matters is living it on a daily basis.


Use it as a tool to help you make decisions about your business - from which companies you partner with, to which products you design. to how you communicate with your clients.

Here are 7 ways to create raving fans that love you. (And I'll bet you'll wind up loving them too!)

1. Focus More On What You Can Give Than Get


Here's the deal. Since the economy took a tumble, our BS meters are dialed up to the highest frequency.  We instantly feel whether or not someone's a giver or taker.


2.  Get Over Wanting Everyone To Like You


When you try to get everyone to like, you inevitably water down your message, create standard (a.k.a boring) products and lose impact.

3.  Get Your Peeps On Your List


Having a legion of blog readers, Twitter followers or Facebook fans is truly awesome, but never underestimate the importance of getting your peeps on your mailing list.

4.  Create and Share Amazing Content Regularly


One of the simplest methods to create raving fans that freaking love you is to create and share cool and valuable content on a regular basis.

Regardless of the actual position you're filling or the skill set the employee needs to have, everyone you hire should have three important traits:

What Is Multi-Channel Marketing (MCM)?


Multi-channel marketing is simply offering customers more than one way to buy.


Question #1: Do you think an 80-year-old grandmother in Stanford, Connecticut, who has a passion for gardening buys through the same channel as a 21-year-old man who loves to surf in Venice Beach, California?


Question #2: Do you think they are both good prospects for, or have responded to, a multi-channel marketing campaign?


how important it is to market your products through multiple channels. Different people respond to advertising in different ways. And very often your customers or potential customers need to see offers more than once before they make the decision to buy.

More Channels = More Money


A study by the Direct Marketing Association [DMA] found that customers who buy from two channels rather than one are between 20 and 60 percent more valuable to a company over time. Customers who buy from three channels rather than one are 60 to 125 percent more valuable.

(Don’t make the mistake of thinking what I’m going to share with you is just about platform selling. It applies to virtually all types of sales situations.)

Step #1: Preconditioning through commitment

You’ve probably been subjected to a platform salesperson asking you the most insane questions to elicit a positive response. For example, he jumps on stage and says, “How many of you want to make a lot of money?!!!”

Step #2: Setting up desire.

I want to sell people what they want. It’s a heck of a lot easier than trying to convince them they need something. The cool thing is you can create desire in your prospects in very subtle ways.

Step #3: The “recall” close

When I got to the part of the bootcamp where I made the actual product offering, I use the “commitments” the audience made in step #1 and the desire for the product I created in “step 2″ to compel many of the audience members to invest.

Why Selling Just Your Services Is No Longer Enough


You'll often hear us discuss the importance of generating leads by offering a free Lead Magnet to build your email list of subscribers.

A free resource guide, checklist, video, or special report is a great first step in building your relationship with a potential customer.

Deliver Your Content Via A Membership Site

 

Your business will also benefit by how you deliver your digital products and leveraged programs to your customers.


It's not enough to simply bring buyers back from your shopping cart and hand them a file to download. Sometimes downloads don't work or aren't compatible with a customer's operating system.

The Connection Between Empowerment and Self-Esteem   


Without a belief in yourself, it is nearly impossible to accomplish your goals.

What Is Self-Esteem?  


Many people feel like they intuitively know what self-esteem is. They know when they have it and when they don't.

What Is Self-Empowerment?  


To be self-empowered means that you have the inner strength to do something that you believe to be in your best interests.

The Self-Empowerment Paradox    


What do you think of when you think about self-empowerment?

The Five Pillars of Self-Empowerment


Self-empowerment is a broader concept that encompasses all areas of a person's life, from the physical to the spiritual. Let's explore them now:   

1.    Physical Empowerment:

2.    Emotional and mental empowerment: 
3.    Professional Empowerment:

4.    Financial Empowerment:

These 7 steps are sure to get your creative juices flowing!

 

 

1.  Seek Variety


"Creativity involves breaking out of established patterns

in order to look at things in a different way."

2.  Pick up a pen (or whatever your tool is)


"You can't try to do things.  You simply must do things."

3.  Express (and accept) yourself!


"Another word for creativity is courage."

4. Get it all out


"Sometimes you've got to let everything go - purge yourself.

If you are unhappy with anything,

whatever is bringing you down, get rid of it.

Because you'll find that when you're free

your true creativity - your true self - comes out."

 

5. Use your body


"Emotion comes from motion."

 

6. Turn on the tunes


"Music and rhythm find their way into the secret place of the soul."

7. "If you have nothing to create, create yourself."


"Our imagination flies.

Still you ask - what does this have to do with your business?


Well, first understand that you're not alone. Lots of other people have their own businesses too. All shapes and sizes. Loads and loads of them.

 

If you look at the data that the Census provides - and I don't care if you're in the U.S., or not, this info applies - you'll see some startling info:

 
There are 22,491,080 Solopreneurs in the US.They average 70 hours a week working.


So what do they get from all that effort?


They average $45,687.79 in annual revenue…


90% make less than $100,000 per year.


Stunned? Shocked? Crying out loud? It's ok, I can totally relate.


Businesses that have between 1 and 20 employees (there are 5,217,507 of them in the US) average 180 hours of work done per week.


Yes, that's right - not much more than double the hours the Solopreneur puts in.


And the kicker?


These businesses average $457,205.35 in annual revenue.

Because business today requires more than one person - and more than that, the MORE people you can tap into, the better off you are.


Want proof?


The companies that have over 20 employees (2,179,121 of them) average a whopping over $13 million annually.


So the more people you can tap into on a cost effective basis, the better off your business is going to be.

When I heard her tell me this, I made a mental note of it but didn't know anything about the publishing industry. 


Learning direct response has been one of the most life changing things that has ever happen to me and I will always be grateful for Carol Scovotti's enthusiasm for direct marketing and being so willing to share her experience and knowledge with me.  


This led me on a 10 year quest of learning about the publishing industry, while I primarily ran my marketing business and my own retail stores.


I started following the success of many magazine publishers from all different niches and products.


1.    Books - even today, publishing a book leads to instant authority status on the topic and there are so many ways to monetize a book other than just selling the book.

2.    Magazines - are quite frankly one of the most lucrative business models.

3.    Paid Newsletters &amp; Membership Sites - are similar to magazines and scalable, they build a loyal following of customers that are interested in purchasing similar products that are related.

4.    Information Products - are ways to monetize and leverage what you know. They can be about business, hobbies, challenges that you have overcome in your life, or related to specific niches, like raising a family, gardening, training your dog, or even how to play a harmonica.  Almost everything you know can be leveraged into an information product to help people.

Digital distractions have also pulled me from reading and meditation in the last week. I think they plague all of us to varying extents.

Recognizing When it Happens

One of the insidious things about the distraction habit is we often don’t even realize it’s happening. It sneaks up on us, like old age, and before we know it we’re addicted and powerless.

See What’s Going On

Once you’re aware of the distractions and urges, you can start to examine the causes.

Taking Action

So you’re building an awareness, and you’ve examined your causes. If you haven’t yet, take a few minutes to walk around your office or house, or better yet get outside, and contemplate these things.

Considering What’s Important

What’s truly important to you? Social media? News? What everyone else is doing all the time? Games?

"What are they doing differently that makes them so rich?"

Some people might say that they were born with certain talents. This may be true, but that's really just one small piece of the puzzle.

In fact, decades of research on achievement suggests that successful people reach their goals not simply because of who they are, but more often because of what they do.

1.) Get Specific

2.) Act On Your Goals

3.) Know exactly how far you have left to go.

4.)Be a realistic optimist.

5.) Focus on growing, rather than being good.

6.) Have grit.

7.) Building your willpower muscle.

8.) Don't tempt fate.

9.) Focus on what you will do, not what you won't do.

Remember, successful people do things in a certain type of way.

By starting to do things in this certain way, success is guaranteed!

As a Law of Attraction coach who has been supporting people for well over a decade in manifesting their desires in all aspects of life, I have come to understand that our beliefs are what determine whether we take the path of action or the path of resignation.

Coaches Listen from Possibility


As a coach, it's my job to listen intently to my clients - not through the filter of their limiting beliefs, but rather from a space of unlimited possibility. Listening from possibility rather than limitation unfolds a quality of conversation that is vastly different than those we have in our everyday lives. Whereas friends and loved ones may unwittingly conspire with our disempowering point of view - or even add more fuel to the fire by sharing similar experiences from their own past - as coaches, we train ourselves to remain neutral by getting out of our own way.
Coaches Get Out of the Way


From that day on, the only "preparation" I do before each session is to connect with the broader, wiser, and more expanded part of myself, and to consciously invite it to come through me and provide whatever information is needed to create a shift in consciousness.

It's a question I'm asked at least once a week.

And, while I can't give you specifics, since each niche, market, product, service, etc., is different, I can tell you a simple way to think about the construction of your marketing funnel message.

As a fan of real crime stories and high-profile court cases, I've always enjoyed watching a good prosecutor in action.

 

 

Seeing how, from the beginning, they methodically lay-out a cogent and persuasive argument of guilt is just a beautiful thing. One block at a time, in logical order, with proof upon proof, building an undeniable case against the defendant. In the end leaving the jury with no other plausible position to take other than one of guilty.

 

 

If we boil down the essence of an effective message within a marketing funnel we'll find something very similar: an undeniable logical and emotional argument established by a string of assertions and claims each backed by a preponderance of proof.



In other words, laying out the message of your marketing funnel is very similar to what a prosecutor does when laying out the message of their case.

Other than those two methods, nothing works nearly as well.

Guest blogging is generally a big waste of time unless the website gets a LOT of traffic (thousands of views per day). It’s much better to use email marketing or paid advertising than to hope for a miracle from guest blogging.

John, great question. The top 5 things you need are:

1) A great offer

2) A great sales system

3) A great traffic source (could be affiliates, that’s easiest)

4) A great back-end set of products to continue to add value to customers

and get more profit to invest in building the front end

5) Eventually a great team to support you.

After sending my answer to John, I asked my business partner, Matt Smith, if I was missing anything.

Goals. Resolutions. Even the most cynical amongst us sets one or two in the back of our mind at this time of year. I don’t blame you. Each year I would sit down and create a laundry list of goals and milestones that I wanted to achieve in the upcoming fresh calendar year. I still do, although I narrow my goal setting down to just 4 big goals, one in each of Mark Ford’s top categories: Health, Wealth, Social Self, and Personal Enrichment.

I’ve written one myself that is available on Kindle for less than a dollar. There are countless books promising great inspiration and motivation to keep you going through the year. And some help. For business goals, I can’t recommend The Secrets of the Rockefeller Habits enough. If you’re serious about building a 7-figure business and a cohesive team, you need to read it. But there’s one book that has nothing to do with business or goal setting or motivation that you need to read. It is the foundation of my success because it reminds me, at all

Many famous people throughout history, from world leaders to prolific inventors, have used the power of visualization to stay motivated and focused on their goals.

"Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning."

Humans have some interesting ways of always getting the outcome they want, or that they "think" they want deep down on the inside.

What is a Big BANG?

The Big BANG (Bold, Ambitious, NobleGoal) combines boldness, ambition, and nobility to create a monumental goal that empowers extraordinary performance. A Big BANG is…

Bold—a Big BANG requires a fearless, daring, and courageous spirit, nerves of steel, and a massive dose of self-confidence.

Ambitious—a Big BANG requires a passionate ambition for achievement. That means setting goals that are as grand in scale as they are bold in formulation.

Noble Goal—a Big BANG inspires the human spirit and challenges uncommon performance. After all, when you strive to improve the lives of others, you have a purpose worth pursuing.

2)    In today’s market you don’t need a USP, but a UCP – Unique Connection Point

How do you connect with clients in a way that is different from competitors? .

3)    A BIG mistake people make is thinking untapped market is best place to go

But the fast track to success is picking busy markets where the action already is. Take a look at Nick Pineault’s recent success. You see, niche products that tap into bigger markets is where the money is. Find out what your user search behaviors are and reverse engineer offers to exploit this opportunity.

4)    Mindset

A lot of what drives us to take action is when our backs are against the wall.

Adding to that is Dave Kekich, says in Kekich Credo #21:

 

…with their Simple Success Formula…

Of course, you might need to start at an even more basic level than that, by asking yourself these questions:

Finances

Do you feel frustrated by the lack of control you have with your personal finances? You’re not alone, and if you seek advice, you’ll get the help you need. Here we will take a look at ways you can be back in charge of your financial life.

Savings Account

Try to eat in the restaurants that are frequented by the local people in order to eat economically when you visit foreign countries.

TIP! Purchasing bulk lean protein allows you to conserve valuable time and money. Buying in bulk is always cheaper when you are going to use everything you purchased.

 

Save money by not eating at restaurants or getting take out. Only eat at restaurants on special occasions. Buying the ingredients and putting meals together at home will save one money, as well as giving one an appreciation for the effort it takes to make good tasting meals

I used to ask the following:
Why am I so unlucky?Who can I blame?Why am I so stupid?How do I make sure I don’t look bad?Why is life so unfair?
I now realize that these aren’t useful questions. These questions caused me to focus on factors that were beyond my control. What’s more, they made me avoid taking responsibility for my choices and my life

I believe this is the key question that leads to success: What is one thing I can do right now to improve the situation?

I definitely don’t claim to be the most successful person, but I can say for certain that this question has enabled me to take plenty of productive action.

Allow me to analyze the individual words and phrases that make up the question, to explain why it’s so potent:

“… one thing…”

The question doesn’t ask you what 10 or 50 things you can do. That would be overwhelming. It asks you what one thing you can do, so you’ll feel more in control.

When you ask this question, you’ll no longer feel powerless. You’re turning your attention to what you can do, instead of what other people ought to do.

To this student, and to everyone else who feels this way, I’d say this: your plate is too full. You have too much going on.

The only answer, unless you want your health to decline (and that’s not good for anyone), is to start saying No. Here’s how you do it…  

You have to say No to at least a couple things on your list: say No to prayer group and the youth group, so that you can say Yes to school and the job.

We have this idea that we can be great at everything, and succeed at all that we try. But we are human, and we have limits, and we have to let go of this idea of doing everything and doing it well. You’re either going to do a couple things well, or do everything poorly.

Whenever you think of child development or raising a child it is up to to to understand just how much their behavior influences their children.

The Magic of The Platform

Look around at just about anyone with influence and you’ll most likely find, not too far away, a Platform of sorts that is powering that force.

Oprah had her TV show. Rush Limbaugh has the radio show. You can think of countless examples.

A Platform, very simply, is some sort of vehicle that distributes specific value to a specific group of people, consistently, over time. A Platform might be as simple as an email newsletter, or a podcast, or a print newsletter, or even a video series.

Now if the word “Platform” is new to you, don’t worry. I didn’t make up the concept. No one in this century (or the last few) did. It’s been around forever.

We want to be focused with laser-like precision on critical tasks and make the best, most efficient use of our time.

We want to be focused with laser-like precision on critical tasks and make the best, most efficient use of our time. Instead, we get distracted, we procrastinate, and we wind up getting too absorbed by unimportant aspects of a single project when we’d be better off turning our attention to other things.

Fortunately, there is a very simple strategy that has been proven to help us deal effectively with the distractions.

It’s called if-then planning, and it’s a really powerful way to help you achieve any goal. Well over 100 studies, on everything from diet and exercise to negotiation and time management, have shown that deciding in advance when and where you will take specific actions to reach your goal (e.g., “If it is 4pm, then I will return any phone calls I should return today”) can double or triple your chances for success. Making if-then plans to tackle your current projects, or reach your goals, is probably – without exaggerating – the most effective single thing you can do to ensure your success.

For example:

If I haven’t finished the grant application before lunch, then I will make it my top priority when I return.

If I am getting too distracted by colleagues, then I will stick to a 5 minute chat limit and head back to work.

If it is 2pm, then I will spend an hour reading and responding to important emails

But what if you want to improve? What if you want to form new habits? How would you go about it?

Turns out, there’s a helpful framework that can make it easier to stick to new habits so that you can improve your health, your work, and your life in general.

The 3 R’s of Habit Change

Every habit you have — good or bad — follows the same 3–step pattern.
Reminder (the trigger that initiates the behavior)Routine (the behavior itself; the action you take)Reward (the benefit you gain from doing the behavior)
 “The 3 R’s of Habit Change,” but I didn’t come up with this pattern on my own.  It’s been proven over and over again by behavioral psychology researchers.

How to Create Multiple Streams of Income – The Right Way

There are two ways to create multiple streams of income that make sense:
Same target market, multiple offerings.Same offering, multiple target markets.
Starbucks does have a number of multiple streams. In their stores, they sell coffee machines, mugs, chocolate covered coffee beans and lunch items. You can also purchase their coffee and bottled frappucino in grocery stores and I’m not sure if it’s nationwide yet, but Starbucks just launched a line of ice cream.

Any online business has set up multiple streams of income.  The second way to create multiple streams of income is to market the same product or service to multiple markets.

Ex. Zukul--mention all their different products and how how have access for 1 fee instead of multiple companies paying a fee to each and you can sell the products separately.

Instead of what you think you should want? Let’s imagine this (maybe you’ve felt this way before)….

When You Want What “They” Have

I met with a friend recently who said she went hiking after being inspired by my pictures….

And she was miserable

You know why?…..

Because she didn’t want to hike

She thought she did…but that’s not what she was after.

What Was She Really Chasing

When she saw pictures of me hiking – happy, tired, accomplished – she thought she wanted to hike.

The (Often Failed) Pursuit of Happiness

Some people like to watch movies, cook, dance, ride horses or paint.

You may or may not like any of these things

Are You Doing What Matters to You – Or “Floating” 

If you aren’t sure what to do with your life, if you are perhaps “floating” through each day, not sure what comes next, there are two things I want you to know:

First that’s more common than you think, I see it all the time

And second: that’s also a problem, because it often means you are throwing away weeks and months of your life, spinning your wheels for nothing in particular.

The Process to Find Your Subject of Mastery

 

Everybody has a different process, a different journey. Some people knew clearly what it was when they were young. I met a woman who interviewed me. She knew that she wanted to be a writer when she was a young girl and then she got into law and it was a dead end and she hated it. She finally figured it out, at the age of 31, that she had to go back to what she really loved.

The Next Step

 

If you’re 22 and about to enter the career world, it’s usually a matter of “I like this field, the sciences” or “I like sports” or whatever. A general category of things that you’re going to pursue. For me, it was writing. 

 
But What If You Are Older?

 

My father worked at the same company for 40 years. They were loyal to him, and he was loyal to them. It’s not that long ago that a world existed where people would work at one place and things were sort of taken care of.

#2:  Is your subject line compelling?

Don’t be clever, funny, cute, boorish, or use double meanings. Those just dont’ work.

#3:  Is your content interesting (and short)?

Make your content interesting by writing the message to one person the way you’d explain it in person… and you cared about it.

#4:  Is your message or offer clear?

We’ve covered short but I have to make clear a separate category.  Clarity trumps almost all other considerations in your email.  If you have to stand on your head to come up with a clear message or offer, do it.

#5 How are you using benefit statements?

I’m on hundreds of lists… and I hardly EVER see a benefit used.  Here’s how you tell if you are using a benefit.  Tell me your message.

6.  What is your you vs I count?--remember WIIFM

Once you write your email count how many times you use the words, “I, me, mine, our” vs “you, you’ll, your, you’re.”  You’ll soon find you talk about yourself too much.

7.  What is your call to action?

Every single email should have a call to action in it.

Look for new ways to make money. Think outside the box

Use any skills related to work or hobbies to generate profitable ideas. Freelance your services on the weekends. Create information products and sell them on the Internet. Plan parties. Don't limit yourself.

Even an extra income of $500 each month could go a long way to paying down debt or increasing your investments. We often hear about the importance of diversifying our investments, but diversifying our income streams is just as important, particularly in difficult economic times. Let me show you just how valuable even an extra $500 per month can be. Then I’ll list the factors to consider in deciding how to generate extra income, followed by 10 multiple income stream ideas.

Flexible: The ideal source of extra income will allow you to call the shots when it comes to your time. Particularly if you have a full time job, the last thing you want is being tied down to working a set number of hours each week at a second job.

Scalable: Look for income sources that have at least the possibility of generating substantial amounts of income.

Sustainable: The ideal extra income source will continue to generate cash even when you’re not working at it. The idea is to build something that can eventually function without you

“Turn your focus toward getting so good they can’t ignore you... Regardless of what you do for a living, approach your work like a true performer.” 

“If you want a great job, you need to build up valuable skills – which I call career capital – to offer in return.”

“Adopt the craftsmen mindset first and then the passion follows.”

“It is a lifetime accumulation of deliberate practice that again and again ends up explaining excellence.”

Of course you don't. No one WANTS that. But for many people, their actions -- and more importantly their attitude -- are leading them down a road of ruin that will ultimately lead them to that precise, final destination.<br /><br /><br />That road's name is "I Can't Boulevard" and it's full of millions upon millions of unsuccessful, complacent, and mediocrity-filled men and women.<br /><br />Yes, many of these people are also good hearted and well meaning, but unfortunately they're stuck in a big fat rut with their health, body, income, marriage, career, or relationships. And they are stuck because of their attitude, because of the phrase, “I can’t”.<br /><br /><br />I can't achieve a body like that. I don't have the genetics.<br /><br /><br />I can’t make a six figure salary. What skills do I have?<br /><br /><br />I can't fix my marriage.

That road's name is "I Can't Boulevard" and it's full of millions upon millions of unsuccessful, complacent, and mediocrity-filled men and women.

Yes, many of these people are also good hearted and well meaning, but unfortunately they're stuck in a big fat rut with their health, body, income, marriage, career, or relationships. And they are stuck because of their attitude, because of the phrase, “I can’t”.


I can't achieve a body like that. I don't have the genetics.


I can’t make a six figure salary. What skills do I have?


I can't fix my marriage. It's too far gone.


I can't be an entrepreneur. That's too risky.


I can't. I can't. I can't. Enough!


 

STOP focusing on all the reasons you "can't" and start taking steps toward the solution. Lead the way with a positive, problem-solving, "can do" attitude.


Can you do that?


I'll let you answer that one.

Whatever we think about, look for, and expect – to a much larger extent than many of us realize, this is what we will find.


By understanding and owning this concept, we can profoundly improve our effect on others, and find greater joy for ourselves in the process.

Finding the Good


This is one of the most profound acts of taking purposeful command of your perspective with others that you can engage in. It can allow you to enjoy them more, and for them to feel seen, and, in a way that is hard to describe, loved.


“I look for the best within people,” he said, “and I try to speak directly to that part of them. Even if they do not see it themselves, I look for it, and speak to it, and I don’t get thrown off by their negative beliefs about themselves.”

You can probably find examples of people who have done this with you: The teacher who saw an ability in you that you didn’t know was there; the coach who knew you could do it; a parent, a friend, a coworker, who believed in you in a way that helped you to believe in yourself.

It’s one more thing, and in some cases one more thing too many, to do on top of an already ambitious publication schedule, responding to comments and questions, and other marketing activity.

.1. Don’t waste time — yours or theirs

The main difference between social networking for business and social networking with your friends is that there is no time to waste. You are there to make connections and develop relationships that move you toward your business goals.

As social media expert and author Martha Giffen reminds us:

“Social media is all about engaging, but to be effective for your biz, it has to be treated as a marketing tool. And, it has to produce results. Otherwise, it’s just online chatting.” ~ Martha Giffen

2. Set goals for your business

You do have goals for your social media use, don’t you?

At the very least you should have some sort of goal around the number of meaningful connections you make each week. Setting measurable goals allows you to plan your social media time much more effectively.

.

So how do you build goodwill on a social media site?

For the majority of us, it is the desire for safety refuge, security - in short, the inclination is to play it safe and remain in our comfort zones.


, I’ll be sharing with you 10 reasons why challenges are so important if you want to unleash your greatness. It all begins with understanding the nature of a challenge and its impact on human performance

“That which does not kill us makes us stronger” – Friedrich Nietzsche

The human body serves as the perfect metaphor for understanding the importance of a challenge, for the simple reason that the body is built to adapt and respond to demands that are placed upon it. The stronger the demand, the stronger the response.

A Challenge Develops Mental Toughness


It’s actually pretty simple. You either rise to meet the mental demands and physical rigors of a challenge, or you succumb to them. And because victory begins in the mind, all challenges are initially won or lost between your ears.

A Challenge Inspires Courageous Acts


The conceptual opposite of courage is cowardice. We are therefore confronted with the reality that we either habitually practice courage, or we habitually practice cowardice. Courage is remarkable in that it takes on the form of every virtue at the testing point.
A Challenge Tests Your Limits


When you rise to meet a challenge, you will never be the same again. You either cope or crumble. You become better or bitter. You emerge stronger or weaker

But what really mattered most was the simple "Circle of Competence" that Buffet and Soros use to guide what they invest in.

All you have to do is ask yourself 3 questions.

1. What are you interested in?
2. What do you know now?
3. What would you like to know about and are willing to learn?

But, when I answer those questions about other business opportunities, I was quickly reminded of where I should invest my money (and time and energy).

1. What are you interested in? - Information publishing.

2. What do you know now? - Quite a bit.

3. What would you like to know about and are willing to learn? - I live for this stuff.

My passion for information publishing (online and offline) lined up with Buffet's obsession with stocks.

In fact, one of Buffet's 23 investment priorities is, "Live and breath investing 24 hours a day".

those considered gurus are perceived as the best in the business. So clients … more clients than they can handle … come to them, rather than these gurus having to pound the pavement to dig up business. And that’s an enviable position to be in.



When I analyzed the data, I found that all people who were top gurus, without exception, had one thing in common: They had written a book on their area of expertise that was published by a traditional publishing house.


This is how Tom Peters got started: Decades ago, he was an obscure management consultant – just one among a huge pack of many jockeying for business, attention, fame, and fortune.


Then he wrote a book on management -- In Search of Excellence -- for a major publishing house.


As the story goes, the publisher didn’t expect the book, a somewhat dry treatise on management philosophy, to sell more than a few thousand copies.

After I had money, I started thinking I needed to make more money – A LOT more. I started buying things I couldn't really afford. I felt people wouldn't like me if I didn't have these things.


I started lending money out to friends and family in the hopes of "helping" them. I thought people would like me if I "saved" them.


Once I started from scratch, I was able to begin the long process of reinventing myself.


I probably own nothing right now except some clothes and some books. And all my relationships, 100% of the people I talk with are only with people I choose to talk to.


If someone in my life tries to control me because of his own fears and angers, then he's out.
The Luck Equation


Luck equals Persistence plus Diversification.


1. Persistence is a sentence filled with failures punctuated by the occasional success.


2. Diversification means coming up with 1,000 ideas and implementing the 1% or 2% that seem reasonable.


Coming up with thousands of ideas means having the energy and creativity to brainstorm.


Energy equals Physical plus Emotional plus Mental plus Spiritual health.


All forms of health are a function of how much you control your own life divided by how much people control you.
