Let's jump right in.
If you’re a 3: LinkedIn.ARTArticleReach Out and Touch Prospects With an Interactive Marketing CampaignThe New Year is here and with it comes hope and optimism for new business, new partnerships, increased profits and overall business success. Some people may ask, is it possible to be so optimistic when the global economy is still in recovery and companies remain in survival mode.
My answer to that is yes it is possible. More importantly it's time for companies to shift gears from a business that is just surviving to one that is thriving. There is business out there to be had by all, but first both B2B and B2C clients and customers need to know you exist. It all starts with strategy.ARTArticleRetargeting Marketing: The Good, The Bad And The UglyGetting new traffic to your site is one thing, but creating customers out of that traffic is an entirely new chal-lenge. In fact, only about 2% of traffic that visit a website will actually become a customer or take some sort of action (conversion). The goal of retargeting is to take advantage of these visitors and attempt to entice that re-maining 98% into becoming a customer at a later point.ARTArticleRight attention attracts right results to entrepreneursIf you want to create different and better results for yourself and your team, at work and/or home, consider going a step further in your self-development and expanding your inner self. If you continue managing your time, finances, people and stress, and additionally, focus your attention and actions on what matters in your life, professionally and personally, you will begin to manifest more of what is on your wish or dream list. This is called “stretching” your current state of being. Why is this important? - Because there are only 24 hours in a day and 365 days in a year: limited time.ARTArticleSales Management I / III – A Better Way to Motivate Sales PeopleSales managers are the key to a company’s selling success.

A very wise sales guru once told me, “If a sales person is unruly, not conforming to policy, etc., but really selling well, keep him (or her) and deal with it.” Whatever this bad apple is doing is working and you want to keep him going. The point: Don’t mess with what’s working well.ARTArticleSales, JV Partners and Wet, Sloppy KissesWhen I was a little girl and my parents had some visitors, I would sometimes go and hide in the closet. Doing this, I could avoid their overwhelming displays of affection – ranging from wet, sloppy kisses to smothering, inescapable hugs. So, why am I being self-revealing here? – To show you that this is not what it appears to be: fear of intimacy. Deep down, it’s about being in control versus not being in control.ARTArticleShould You Add Videos to Your Business Blog?A picture, the old saw relates, is worth a thousand words.

But now, video is everywhere and is easily accessible to the most inexperienced and novice user of the camera.ARTArticleShould You Buy a Car With No Money Down?Every day we see and hear advertisements from car dealerships. Some are very cliche with all the hype and over the top salespeople, while others are more subdued and try to appeal to a consumer’s logical side. In any case, their goal is to draw potential buyers into the dealership any way they can.ARTArticleSimple Solutions for Health ChallengesDear friend, how many times have you gone to sleep at night, swearing you'll go to the gym in the morning or you’re going for a swim and then changing your mind just eight hours later because when you get up, you don't feel like exercising?ARTArticleSmall-business growth: Transformation is requiredGrowth is the lifeblood of entrepreneurship and business success.

There are all those clothes, some of them you wear and some you haven’t worn since the year 2000. This is a bit like the beliefs that you hold. You have been gathering them up along the way and holding many of them to you much longer than the time that they serve you.ARTArticleStuck in the "entrepreneurial lows?" 3 Truths to Help You Navigate Through ItWe all talk about the entrepreneurial journey -- how when you embark, the highs will be some of the best highs of your life … but there will be some lows too.

When I was in direct sales, I became one of the top leaders on our North American team, I think because I was 100 percent committed to, and diligent in achieving my daily goal: to conduct 50 cold calls per week day. As a result of my dedication and success, I was recognized by my team leader and even the #3 income earner within this international company, specifically for having strong phone communication skills. During calls, I would do most of the listening, not most of the talking, as you may have expected me to say.ARTArticleSupersede small talk... only if you want that dream jobIf you are not big on small talk, then why not learn the art of “big talk”, to land your dream job or career, or magnetize more ideal clients?

Therefore, there are tons of opinions about if one should have it and if so, what variety should be purchased.

We exchanged cards and promised to be in touch when we returned home.
When I got home I turned over all those business cards to my team member as usual to enter into our database for follow up. It was about a month later when I realized this potential vendor had not contacted me or followed up with me.ARTArticleThe Dreaded QuestionDo any of these exchanges sound familiar, fellow creative?
Them: “So…what do you do?”
You: “I’m an Executive Assistant.” (leaves out that you’re a certified life coach & kicks ass at it & won’t be an Executive Assistant for much longer)

Stories are how we relate to and understand one another and there are so many great ones out there. They stand the test of time, passed on from person to person, generation to generation. They are made into books, poems, plays, movies, TV shows, urban legends, cave paintings... you get the idea.
