    YouTube: Playground For Exhibitionists
    C’mon, don’t tell me you’ve never pretended to be one of those. It’s really safe to come out of the closet now. Even my friend’s boss has publicly declared it. You know you’re a YouTube addict and so is everybody else. Everybody with a broadband connection that is. What’d you think I was referring to? YouTube, the video-sharing site that everybody just can’t seem to get enough of is a true web phenomenon. A phenomenon phenomenal enough to be snapped up by Google for a cool
    mpanies. So what are you doing, every other week, no matter what, to let these companies know who you are?

    There's no one you can't get to as long as you constantly market to them, especially after they say they're not interested. People will not only begin to respect your perseverance, they will actually begin to feel obligated.

    This doesn't happen right away, but even the most hard-bitten and cynical executive or prospect begins to respect you when you refuse to give up. The publication I mentioned earlier went on to double sales two more years in a row. Th

    5 Print Ad Essentials!
    Writing an effective print ad, particularly a classified advertisement, requires that you remember five essential points. Failure to implement these points correctly can cost you much in the way of time lost and a sale missed.You've just cleaned out the attic and straightened up the garage. You've identified items you no longer need, but they certainly have a cash value to them. You could really use the money, but you don't want to post the information on eBay. What t
    Completely grasp the power of the Best Buyer Concept and you will double your sales within the next twelve months. The concept is easy to understand, yet powerful: There's always a smaller number of ideal buyers, compared to all the possible buyers, so ideal buyers are cheaper to market to and yet bring greater rewards.

    A magazine used this strategy to double sales in 15 months flat. Here's what they did:

    They took a database of 2200 advertisers and sent promo-pieces to them each month. After learning this strategy, they did an analysis and found that 167 of those 2200 advertisers bought 95% of the advertising in their competitor's magazine.

    This concept is called "The Dream 100 Sell," a concept where you go after your "Dream" prospects with a vengeance. This magazine sent the 167 (best buyers) a letter every two weeks and called them four times per month.

    Since these were the biggest buyers, the first four months of intensive marketing and selling brought no actual reward. In the fifth month, only ONE of these Dream clients bought advertising in the magazine.

    In the sixth month, 28 of the 167 largest advertisers in the country came into the magazine all at once. And since these are the biggest advertisers, they don't take quarter pages and fractional ads, they take full pages and full color spreads. These 28 advertisers alone, were enough to double the sales over the previous year. The magazine went from number 15 in the industry to number one in just over a year.

    Lesson learned: Market to your best buyers

    Now you're probably thinking to yourself, who are my best buyers? If you sell to the business-to-consumer market, chances are, your best buyers live in the best neighborhoods.If you are a dentist, accountant, chiropractor, R.E. Broker, financial advisor, restaurant, or even a MLM professional you should consistently go after the folks who live in the best neighborhoods.

    They are the wealthiest buyers who have the money and the greatest sphere of influence. If you send them an offer every single month without fail, within a year, you'll have a great reputation among the very wealthy.

    If you sell to the business-to-business market, it's usually fairly clear that your best buyers are the biggest companies. So what are you doing, every other week, no matter what, to let these companies know who you are?

    Don't Blame The Economy For Poor Sales Performance
    If your company’s not hitting its revenue targets and underselling its competition, it’s really easy for senior managers and executives to blame the economy. The fact is though, that the economy is very robust right now, and despite high energy prices, it’s pretty clear that the economy is going to stay on a strong track. So unless your market is in a slump, the chances are that your company needs to take a hard look at sales from the perspective of its strategy, process, a

    What Do You Do When You Get a Big Purchase Order and Can't Fill it?
    When you get a purchase order and don't have the money to get the inventory or parts to fill the order, what do you do? You factor your receivables, right?

    The Weaker Sex Can Pack A Mean Business Punch Too!
    Judging from the title itself, you’re probably expecting a men-bashing article about the kind of injustice that men cause women and about how women should learn how to hold their can of pepper spray in hand (facing the right direction, of course, unless the women plan to blind themselves) the moment they catch a whiff of a MAN.Well….er, no. Not really.I am here to explain and give some good examples of why and how women can do what they want to do in business a

The publication I mentioned earlier went on to double sales two more years in a row. They consistently marketed to the best buyers and much more aggressively than they did to the rest of the buyers.

    A company selling to manufacturer's used this strategy to target the 100 biggest manufacturers in the country. For the first three months no one responded to any of the calling or phoning.

    But after three months executives started saying: "I just have to meet you. I've never had anyone continue to call me so many times after I said no." Within 6 months they had gotten in to see 54% of those they targeted.

    The secret is to NEVER give up.

    Just keep going after those companies again and again. Or if you sell to consumers, commit to sending a promotional piece every single month to those wealthy neighborhoods. Eventually, all the wealthy people in your area will know exactly who you are.

    Now the question is: Who are your DREAM prospects and how committed are you to getting them as clients?
