Member You - Motivate Your Market Force
If you're taking your company to a trade show in the near future, it's important to make sure that you've got your image right.

Do you want to double, or increase significantly you're income in mystery shopping? If yes, I'll be sharing to you an age old concept. Now you might have learned this already or you may consider this common sense. But is a concept that’s worth drilling on for more knowledge or for the sake of repetition, mind you “Repetition is the mother of all skills”.The concept I’m talking about is Time Management. From our early years we always hear the saying “Time is Money”. And it’s still true today, it might as well be etched in stone coz’ from where I stand It has no sign of beco

You have complete control. Unlike public relations efforts, you have final word in determining where, when and how often your message will appear, how it will look and what it will say. You can target your audience more readily (working mothers, new home purchasers, small truck owners) and aim at very specific geographic areas. You can be consistent through advertising that presents your company's image and sales message over time to build awareness and trust. Similar to McDonald's golden arches, a distinctive identity can eventually become clearl

Most companies are just not customer focused in their advertising and marketing.It’s almost always about themselves, how long they have been in the business, how many branches they have, how many awards they have won, how organized they are… They actually think that all these would make people into customers. The truth cannot be further from this.People really don’t care about hearing about you. You must make them see how you can benefit them. Remember WIIFM – What’s in it for me?You really need to sneak your way into your customers’ head and speak to their ne

CEO's. How do you communicate with your workforce? Do you limit it to managers? What about the staff at the bottom? They have information no one else has. Kenneth Hendricks, CEO of an American company gives this idea: "If you want to know really what is happening in most companies, you talk to the guy who sweeps the floor. Nine times out of 10, he knows more than the President. So I make it a point of knowing what my floor sweepers know even if it means sweeping the floor .
3. Business Mail
Who handles incoming mails for your company? Is it the corporate messenger? He collects all mails, sorts and distributes? Time to stop else you won't know when you sink. Besides, you can miss big business opportunities from a customer complaint or suggestion in a letter. Much depends on how your letters are handled. Handling mails can be a manager's job, no longer a messenger's job. Some CEOs insist on reading other mails besides those marked for their attention, or with their names. Treat all mails as if they are Letters to the Editor . Every magazine or newspaper worth its salt publishes such letters. Some even give financial rewards for the "star" letter of the week to encourage readers to write. CEOs, you can be the Editor of your incoming mails.
4. CEO Marketing
CEOs go out and sell. Do not limit your exposure only to your air conditioned offices. Go out and sell. When you do so, you power your corporate marketing and improve the bottom line. Do nott stay at head office holding endless management and board meetings. If that is your style, then watch out. It will soon reflect in
