Time Is More Than Money!
Time is more than money. Time, when used effectively, will guarantee that you will always have time for what is really important in your life. There are two critical areas to ensure that you turn your time into money and more available time for other important life areas.-Focus and concentrationThe ability to concentrate is one of the critical traits of good time managers. Concentration is the ability to give 100 percent focus on an action, a project, assignment, decision or activity. This does not mean that other priorities are totally set aside. The ability to multi-task (chew gum and walk at the same time) is often necessary. However, when you try to write a letter while on hold with a prospect I guarantee that one or both will suffer.Where or in what circumstances do you have difficulty concentrating?Here are a few keys:1. If you make lots of mistakes this could be sign you lack focus.2. If you do not spend adequate time planning you may suffer in execution later.3. We often pay the price of discipline or regret.4. Periodically ask yourself: does this decision, project or activity have my full attention?5. What is taking your eye off the ball on this activity?6. If you are o

How an Old Swimming Lesson will Keep You Afloat Instead of Sinking in Sales
I recently took my very first swimming lesson. You would think that a California native would have learned how to swim somewhere along the path of life. I guess the opportunity never came, until recently. I didn't know what to expect from my swim lesson. I was amazed at how much I didn't know about swimming. We started at the beginning. The first hurtle was to learn how to float. The instructor told us to relax and take a deep breath, arch our backs and we would float to the top. My first attempts were not successful. I felt like a rock in the water. It seemed to be a mind over matter issue.As I lay there in the water, I could hear my words echo the same thoughts we suggest in outside sales. We encourage new salespeople to relax when making sales calls. However, telling someone to do something is one thing, getting them to do it is quite another. As I looked around the pool it was interesting to watch the progress of the other students. Some found the floating exercise easy to accomplish. Others struggled with it as I did. However, we each gained more confidence in ourselves as we watched others begin to float. We must have been thinking, "If they can do it, I can do it too!"If We Tense Up, We Will SinkIt is critical for a sales

I still believe that, although its going to take several more years for it to happen than I thought it would initially.

Those were the days of free domain name registrations through Internic, or Network Solutions as they are called now, and anyone could register a domain name for free and have a website on that domain within minutes or hours and it was all free. I won't go into the story of how all of that changed but lets just say that Network Solutions figured out that there was money to be made from domain name registrations and thus now you have to pay for them.

Here's a Quick Way to Prevent Theft in the Workplace
According to s study conducted by the Ipsos-Reid Corp for Ernst & Young, the average employer spends about $1500 on office supplies due to loss from theft. The same report goes on to state the cost can even triple if upper-level management are the ones responsible for the theft. All in all those pads of papers, post-its©, and pens going home with employees cost the average business at least $19,000 per year.Though theft is hardly ever discussed in the workplace the latest ADP Pre-Employment Screening Report found:* 5% of all employees had a criminal past within the last seven years. With construction jobs seekers averaging a rate of 8% and those in health care related professions having a rate of 3%* More than 35% of all employees showed one or more violations and convictions for traffic related offenses.* About 46% of all employees had some type of financial judgment issued against them or pending.Not surprisingly, more than 80% of all business now performs comprehensive background checks on all potential employees, compared to less than half that number 10 years ago.Still not convinced that the cost of background checks is a wise investment for your company?

Internet Presence and Professional Networking and Their Relationship to the Complex Sales Process
Possessing a visible Internet presence and professional networking skills can be a big help in executing a complex sales process.Everything that is sold has a greater or lesser impact on a client's business. A client might need paperclips, but they aren't going out of business if they make the wrong decision in buying a couple of hundred cases. The same amount of money spent on a unified messaging system, or a web server, could potentially be devastating if the wrong buying decision is made. Obviously there are huge implications if a company makes the wrong decision associated with a $10 million dollar ERP system, or a mission critical piece of manufacturing capital equipment. This concept has basically been implicitly communicated over the years in the phrase "Nobody ever got fired for buying IBM."Typically, the more impact your offering potentially has on a client's business - good or bad, the more complex the sales process is going to be. Why? The more potential for impact a purchasing decision has on the client, the more people get involved in the decision process. More people involved in the decision means it takes longer for everyone in the decision process to evaluate the options and reach a decision consensus.At large (and even

The Key to Sales Growth? Understand the Buyer!
Businesses seeking to increase revenue growth should shift specific focus to the buying environment within each potential customer. Great sales professionals recognize there are a distinct set of phases that a buyer engages to buy with the end result of this “buying cycle” being the purchase of the product or service, or not.Unfortunately for all buyers, each selling organization and their individual sales professionals are unique and often require immense amounts of energy to build a relationship with. This keeps buyers guessing, which in turn keeps the sales organization guessing. It’s a constant game being played out across offices across the country.To help both sides, it may be prudent to go back to root cause of these ambiguity. The only common denominator across all sales organizations and all buying organizations is the dollar sign. Surprise! Buyers and sellers are concerned about the same thing! The buying organization wants more revenue through decreased revenue; the selling organization wants more revenue through sales. The bottom line-- we all want more revenue.The item that keeps most C-level executives up at night is how to engage in the global marketplace to increase revenue or reduce costs—that’s it.

Reviewers Love Money Making Programs
I don't know about you but it seems everytime I search for anything money related, there is at least 10 review sites about money that show up.Now, I'm someone who loves reading other people's opinons, but there are so many out there, especially about money and ways to make money that its hard to differentiate them all.The latest fad seems to be all of these money review sites related to internet marketing. You see names like Rich Jerk, Guru Slayer, and Internet Whizz Kid all the time and for each of these guys who make money there are 20 review sites that pop up to discuss their programs.The thing I love most about that is it give you the opportunity to read up on something before you jump in and spend your hard earned money.Who wouldn't love that?From what I've gathered, this is in large part to the fact pulling people in so that they read a review about a money making product and then are encouraged to purchase it since they have someone who has already bought it and loves it!This actually isn't a bad paradigm, however since there are so many review sites about money making that it takes time to see the legitimate sources from the scams. Plan on spending several hours if not dozens weaning out the scams from le

Anyway, I dabbled in setting up some websites and shopping carts, bebopped around on eBay with a few items I had to sell and actually made a little money here and there. Not much mind you but a little extra change every now and again. Along came a new concept in sales on the Internet back about 1994 or so called affiliate marketing. If you don't know what that is its basically advertising a product for sale that you don't own, or stock, for someone else that does for a cut, or percentage, of the sale.

It was so successful for companies that participated that Internet websites like Commission Junction began springing up to bring Internet average Joe's and companies together. Today there in excess of over 10,000 affiliate programs one can join and begin marketing products on the Internet.

Of course it had to happen, there came individuals out of the woodwork claiming they made millions off of affiliate marketing and was ready to divulge their secrets to all - for a price. This information came to you by varied means usually secret insider websites that you logged into or, as is most common today, an eBook about their secrets. Again another avenue for affiliate marketing sprang up for selling access to these secrets for the publishers. And you guessed it websites were created to bring these publishers and average Joes together to form alliances, or affiliate associations between themselves. The most popular for this type of affiliate referral websites today is ClickBank.
