Three Successful Strategies Work-At-Home-Moms Use To Keep Balance
Have you heard the expression, “If things aren’t right at home, they aren’t right anywhere?” This is so true! I’m a mother of six kids and we are organic dairy farmers. And if that’s not enough, I am a professional speaker and writer with my own company. When things weren’t right at home – kids fighting, house a mess, piles of laundry sitting around, and unplanned meals – everything suffered. If I worked on housework, meals, etc., I felt guilty because I wasn’t working on my business. If I spent time working on my business, then I felt guilty that our home was out of control.

Building a High Performance Sales Team
A great salesperson does not equal a great sales manager. It seems natural for the best performing salespeople to become promoted to positions of sales managers. However, many sales managers struggle in that role because they lack the knowledge, skills, and/or abilities to fully support their sales teams as they should. What made my former sales manager such a good one was that he knew how to MANAGE me. Focusing less on sales techniques and more on accountability, goal-setting, and time-management techniques.

Seminars… Teleseminars… Webinars… Summits: What the heck is the difference?
The real answer is nobody really knows. All these terms are used interchangeably for different types of events. This makes it very difficult for when you get invited to speak at one of these events because you really don’t know what you are getting in to, and more importantly, what you may potentially get out of the event. I believe, this should be the standard: Seminar: An event you physically attend and participate as a speaker or a participant. Typically the event will have multiple speakers over the course of one or more days.

***When to Hold Your Seminar: Which Day of the Week Is Best for Your Seminar?
One common question faced by new seminar promoters is determining what day of the week they should hold their event. Here are some points to consider as you make important scheduling decisions.

Easy Sources of Seminar Leads: 3 Leaks to Plug in Your Seminar Lead-Generation Process

How you capture and follow up with prospective seminar attendees is one area in which tiny changes can produce big results. Here are some questions you can ask to identify areas for improving your lead-generation process:

Adding Value to Your Seminar: Use Bonuses to Increase Value and Justify Higher Prices
Will prospective seminar attendees pay what you are asking to participate in your seminar? The answer depends on how they perceive your price. If they think it's too high -- in other words -- there is not enough value to justify the time and money they will spend traveling to and participating in your seminar, they will not sign up. But if they think that you are offering a fair value, if not a bargain, they will sign up. I recently met with producers of a one-day sales seminar that is priced at $1,295.

Advertising Your Seminar: 6 Rules to Remember When Advertising Your Seminars
When promoting a local seminar, newspapers seem like a logical choice for reaching your target audience. After all, newspaper readers are local. And they are interested enough in learning new information that they're willing to pay for and read a paper, right? But as many new seminar promoters quickly learn, promoting seminars via newspaper advertising isn't as easy as running an ad and filling the room. For starters, your ad has a lot of competition -- and not just other ads. Every story on the page as your ad, as well as every story in the paper, is competing for attention.

Following Up with Seminar Prospects: Boost Seminar Registrations
Convincing busy, budget-conscious people to invest their time and money to attend your seminar can be a challenge. That is why you should sit up and pay attention when a prospective attendee indicates even the tiniest bit of interest in your event. Seminar leads are golden. Yet many seminar promoters treat their leads casually. They will field phone calls and emails from prospects who have questions, yet they will not keep records about who has called in. They will deliver free preview seminars, but assume that prospects who leave without registering aren't interested.

Overcome Prospects' Procrastination to Increase Seminar Registrations:Increase Seminar Registrations with Deadlines
Experienced seminar promoters know that the number of registrations that come in each day generally increases as the seminar draws closer.

The reason for this trend, by and large, is prospects' procrastination. Like you, your prospective seminar attendees are busy.

Pounding the Pavement: When Promoting Seminars, Anything Goes
"What's the best way for me to promote my seminars?" This question easily makes the top five list of challenges I hear from newer seminar promoters, as well as those who aren't satisfied with how their events are performing. Their uncertainty is understandable. Because when you're doing your own marketing, growing a business and delivering the content, you want to make sure that every dime and every minute you invest into your promotions will pay off. The frustrating thing, of course, is that you can't guarantee that everything you do will be a winner. Some promotions fizzle.

A recent trip to the grocery store reminded me of a valuable Internet marketing tip I learned years ago. When I was headed out the door with my cartful of groceries, the greeter -- an elderly man who always welcomes me with a big smile and friendly "hello" -- flagged me down.

3 Tips to Build a Strong Foundation for Your Future Seminar Business
The seminar business is not one to enter on a whim -- at least, not if you want to minimize your risk. Between room rentals, equipment, and food and beverage minimums, the production costs can be tremendous. If you don't adequately fill the room, you can lose a lot of money very quickly. The marketing process also can be a challenge. Getting someone to say "yes" to spending time with you -- learning something much less -- is far more difficult than getting them to plop down their credit card in exchange for a low-cost book or a fun gadget.

They value it more than the others. I see that they do not manage their time. They live their lives. Today I resolve to make the most of my time.

Finding Strength and Trust in the Cycle of Change
In ordinary times, the natural flow of constant change in our lives is gradual and often barely noticed. Just like the subtle physical changes from 30 to 40, the move from one home to another, or one season to the next, you flow through the changes without giving them much attention. You can even trust in the transition to death if it comes to those around you from old age, as you expect it. You experience the loss, heal, and then go on with life. You know instinctively and from experience that the nature of life around you constantly moves and expresses in rhythms and cycles.

Be Respectable
Get people to respect you. That is a good advice. The Unreasonable Man thinks otherwise. Losers demand respect all the time. That is reasonable. And that is their biggest mistake. They think that they need people's respect to be successful, to be significant. The Unreasonable Man does not think so. Let me explain. You must not demand respect from your relatives. Respect is not automatic simply because you are the eldest of the family. Respect is not part of the human DNA.r

You Must Not Stop Until You Win
Most people cannot accept failure. They stop the first time they fall. It is important for me to know when to stop and change the course. But I do not think that one must stop after the first fall. You cannot stop until you win. You quit only when you know that what you are doing no longer supports your purpose in life. That is the only time. Failure is not a reason to quit.

Learn to Say “NO” and Mean It!
How can you respond confidently when someone makes a request you’d prefer not to accommodate? The question has just been posed. Pause.

Stop Tearing Your Hair Out Over Your In-Laws and Live Your Own Life
Having trouble getting on with your in-laws? You are not alone! The impossibility of living in any kind of peace with your partner's family has been a source of woe forever.

So they probably fall into another category - manipulative, interfering, critical, demanding. And they 'get to you’. All you want is a peaceful life with your partner, on your own terms!

Service
At the core of us is the desire to make a difference. To be in service to another is a noble choice, yet to be in one’s own sovereignty is always a first preference. Giving and empowering another makes us feel needed and happy as long as it isn’t to the detriment of our own well being and autonomy. Service is the act of giving, yet who is the recipient when you give to others? Giving and receiving may appear as separate exchanges, they are actually the same energy. In choosing truth, assess your current attitude. How do you treat people? Can you improve your interaction with them?

I have a personal and professional goal, which is to support each individual to familiarize and express the completed version of their highest vision of themselves. I believe that if we do our part to empower ourselves, assist others in need and continually strengthen the connection with our inner voice and spiritual principles, we will come closer to remembering who we are and why we are here. With this outline of higher awareness fully activated in our souls what precipitates from the hyper-dimensional state, is a new reality in full harmony with that blueprint.r

Networking Numskull: How NOT to be one!
Having been to many networking events I have found that a lot of people talk about networking but very few do it well. Many people fear going to an event and meeting total strangers. If they go, they introduce themselves and hand out their business cards and collect cards from others. Most of these cards are lost or tossed, by both parties! What they do not understand is that this is NOT networking, these are introductions.
