Business Growth Strategy: How Do You Use Pareto Analysis To Focus Efforts On Your Clients' Benefits?
This week I am working with a client who is drowning in success. He has been working on his business for two years (following four years work in his business). His sales are taking off and his team is rushed off their feet, stressed and heading for burnout.So my task is to coach the team to perform better, to survive and ultimately to thrive on their success.What is the 80/20 rule?I explained to the team that commonly 80% of results are produced by 20% of causes. Applied to sales revenue, this idea gives you plenty of levers with which to control and manage your situation:Observation 1: 80% sales come from 20% customers. Printing out the cumulative sales ledger by value enabled us to identify the important customers. We will fo

The word is out that social bookmarking is the thing, that special flavor of the month (or year or decade?), but only by taking it in small steps have I been able to figure out some of its ins and outs.

The long and short of social booking is, it is a way to save your Favorites folder (or portions thereof) online. This means no matter where in the world you happen to be, as long as you've got a connection to the internet, you just log into your social bookmarking account and voila! at your fingertips are all of the important urls you might find yourself needing - but without access to - since your computer is sitting home and you're not.

Now that is a good idea! Saves uploading a bunch of urls to your domain, or remembering to send them to your Aunt Sally before you visit, on the off chance you'll need to remember that special something while you're away.

(By the by, it's also a quick way to actually use your home computer. I don't know about you, but my Favorites folder is virtually useless at this point.)

But, there's even more to social bookmarking then easy access. You can also share this information with others. Your friends, family, co-workers, subscribers, whoever, can easily see what you've been uncovering on the web and decide, at that point, if it's something so useful and/or interesting that they, too, would like to access it easily through their own social bookmarking account.

The logical step from there (since I'm assuming that you are reading this because you, too, are interested in new ways to market on the net) is to find a way to tie bookmarking to your service and/or website.

If this is all new to you, too, head here: http://del.icio.us/ This is a very popular social bookmarking service.

You'll see numerous urls listed on their main page, and since we're just getting the hang of this (assuming you don't already have an account and are way ahead of my learning curve level), let's practice :)

Beside each of these web page entries are the faint words "save this."

Put your mouse over the "save this" and click. If you have an existing del.icio.us account, it will take you to the log in page for your account (for you smart ones!). If you don't have an account yet, you'll be given the opportunity to create one now.

After creating your account and logging in, you'll see an area on your screen where the url you've chosen to bookmark is awaiting your description and/or notes and/or tags.

The Top 10 E-Commerce Ways to Follow up with Clients - Part 2
Did you know that 80% of all sales are made after the 5th contact? The biggest mistake we make is not following up with our clients regularly. We not only lose the chance to offer other services and products, we lose the chance for satisfied clients' referrals. Building your practice needs consistent bi-monthly follow-ups. If you think this takes too much time, follow my lead and delegate some of it where you will spend only 6-8 hours a week. Remember, only marketing and promotion builds income and business, the rest are expenses. Part one of this article is available at www.bookcoaching.com/freearticles/article-129.shtml.

Printed Customized Labels In Montreal Canada; What You Need to Know And What You Should Ask For
Look around today, labels are everywhere. With tighter regulatory rules, better labeling is becoming compulsory. Labels should provide the end user with useful information to them. A great label can also make your company or product stand out. Walk down any isle in a grocery store or pharmacy, and you can see many brands for every product. How does the consumer choose? One way is the packaging. A sharp, professionally designed label can increase the chances that your product will be the one selected. Study after study shows that the packaging can increase the likelihood of selection from 20 to 65% among undecided shoppers.Do your labels save you time, effort, and money? Do they make your company look good and help you sell more? Do they adhere well, look beautiful, and last as long you need them? Or do they just stic

Charismatic Communication - Discovering and Building a Mutual Space with Your Audience - Part Two
Inclusion and consensus-building are vital in gaining attributions of charisma and developing followers. Followers in the workplace are people who subscribe to your vision; who will invest energy, patience, trust, emotion and dedication in you and your goals. Emotional attachment to your vision and supporting values is essential if you want people to work as a team towards the missions you establish.Charisma and influence are the result of quid pro quo's. In discovering the values and needs of your stakeholders, your part of the bargain is to do unto them as they would be done unto. You do unto "them" by establishing congruence between their needs and aspirations and your mission; by finding ways to share high-order values; by respecting individual differences you encounter, and linking beliefs and interests with you

Selling A Domain Name: How Much is It Worth?
Shakespeare's Juliet may have said “That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet”, but it's a good bet that Juliet hadn't ever tried to pick a good domain name for her website. It's an even better bet that she didn't try to place a value on the name when the time came to sell it, something more and more people are facing today. Whether you are selling your domain because you have closed up a website or you have decided to try your hand at the domain buying and selling game, you'll need to know how much that domain name is worth.There are stories of people who have found the perfect domain name and sold it for enough money to retire on. There are people who buy domain names that are slight misspellings of some famous, trademarked domain, in the hopes of getting traffic through typos whi

Now that you're on the road to social bookmarking comes the fun part... telling others what you're doing.

If you have a website, you can easily add (assuming you do your own webmastering or know the rudiments of copying and pasting) a "save this page" to any and all of your important webpages within your site. Use the "help" link, then read "For Publishers" under the Feeds and Tools section. That's where you'll find the code.

In addition, you'll want to share you're newly found method of communication with others. Get your family, friends, subscribers, mailing list involved in bookmarking your small chunk (del.icio.us listing) of the social bookmarking web.

Then, make use of it! Don't just load it up with junk. If you're a writer and find interesting writer's resources add them to your account. If you're a news junkie and track particular newsworthy items, post those!

As you get more and more familiar with social bookmarking, you'll understand the importance of "tagging" your information correctly. According to del.icio.us, your page goes on the front page (I've yet to see any of mine though) and also is filed away under sub-indexing using those all-important tags.

=============================

A LAYMAN'S EXPLANATION OF TAGS:

If you're just bookmarking stuff online for yourself, no worries, but tags are critical to your marketing social bookmarking success.

Tags are sort of like mini meta desciptions. Tags cannot be inserted into a regular html page (don't bother trying to put them on your website, they won't do anything but take up space).

Tags are basically equal to metas and content. However, tags are used in blogs and rss feeds. They are the trigger words for online feeds to categorize (more or less) what it is you're writing about and posting. Obviously tying your words to popular tags will be very important.

http://del.icio.us/tag/ is a huge list of popular and not so popular currently used tags. My advice would be to be sure you've got the Google toolbar installed. As you click on some tags, check the page ranking (little green bar) on your Google toolbar. That will help you see how popular (or not) that particular "tag" is... and remember you don't have to "follow the crowd." You can choose tags "not so popular." Then, when others pick up on those tags, you're already ahead of the game :)

In the future, give your tags some very serious thought! Your tags will brand your own posted entries.
