Why Are You Telling Me This?

We get letters. So far, and it’s only been a few weeks that my book has been out, the letters have been pretty nice. No one, yet, has told me they took my advice and bankrupted their company, disinherited their kids, or run off with the circus. But it’s only Thursday. There’s still time.

How Good is Your Goodwill?

Business is all about profit, and sales training can help create that profit. But sometimes profit opportunities are built in the long-term rather than the short-term (despite shareholders' and others' strong desire for immediacy).

Death of Print by RSS

The death of newspaper is being hastened by RSS, "Really Simple Syndication". It's a very popular way to search the internet for interesting websites and get an automatic feed of all of the new stories/topics that you want to read about. It prioritizes the immense and, quite frankly, overwhelming amount of information and retrieves it for you. Instead of scouring websites for endless, (sometimes boring) hours, all topics you identify are instantly fed to you. Most news sites, and blogs syndicate their content/information as an RSS feed.

Twitter, Twellowhood, and Monitter

Melissa Riley — Thu, 18 Dec 2008 12:48:21 -0500

I stumbled upon another interesting tool last night via a posting from a fellow realtor on Trulia: Twellowhood. It gives you the ability to do a geographic search of people using Twitter.com. While it has taken me some time to see the value of Twitter to my business, with use of Twellowhood, it might begin to serve some purpose in zeroing in on local news or networking opportunities.

Lead Nurture as a Better Way to Sell

TJ McCue — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 21:50:39 -0500

So often, i hear from entrepreneurs and business owners about their online lead generation efforts, pay-per-click, and other methods to generate new sales.

It is pretty common to hear about thousands of dollars being spent to build a list, but then never thinking about how to manage that list of prospects for the long term. I believe the answer resides in thinking about others buy cycles, processes and professional needs.

Complex Economic Climates Require Back-to-Basics Selling Skills

Skip Anderson — Wed, 12 Nov 2008 10:16:18 -0500

With the world becoming frantic about what to do about the current economic crisis (understandably), companies and individuals are searching for every possible means of increasing revenue and cutting costs. Many are in survival mode.

It makes sense to look for opportunities for market diversification, broadening of product offerings and new alliances and partnerships, but while you're exploring those options, don't forget to look at what's right in front of you: improving the selling skills of your salespeople. In my opinion, it's back-to-basics time.

Photrade: Sharing, Selling and Protecting Your Photographs

Saabira Chaudhuri — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 17:25:07 -0400

Sharing photographs is now easier than ever before. Gone are the days when you held your breath while images attached to the email you were mass mailing to friends and family. The last five years have given rise to a plethora of photo sharing sites like Flickr, Photobucket and Picasa.

Social networking sites have jumped on the bandwagon too -- Pownce was created around the very premise that sharing media should be easy, while Facebook, Twitpic and others are also popular places for people to share photos.

Selling into the Competitive Maelstrom

Mark Walker — Tue, 17 Jun 2008 19:05:11 -0400

Little doubt exists in the mind of most business people that
the days in which we live are perhaps the most turbulent of any in recent
memory. Truth is, any time there is a
downturn in the amount of business activity available in any given market,
competition increases as suppliers of goods and services vie for a greater slice
of a shrinking pie. Growing your
business in a time of general economic growth is not rocket science; in some
respects one need only be sensitive to the needs of the market in terms of
