Trigger Button Marketing
Sometimes, experiencing bleak sales is a matter of failing to find your prospective customers’ trigger buttons.By trigger buttons, we mean anything that the customer would find of peculiar value. It may be the quality of the product, the promptness of the delivery, the added perks in the offer, the after-sales service involved, or any combination of these factors. There is no doubt that discovering, a

In the old days of networking (and unfortunately, believe it or not, still in most Australian networking organisations) people were taught networking practices that were appalling rude. It’s no wonder that networking is so hated, particularly in Australia, that organisations like BNI have to force their members to attend meetings by threatening to “open their category” if they are absent too often.
And yet networking, done properly, is possibly the number 1 most effective marketing or business building activity one could engage in. So why hasn’t it been done properly? What are the mistakes that people are making that has turned networking into such an unpleasant, unfulfilling and plain awful experience?
Do These Look Familiar?

*** When a complete stranger says “and what do you do?” you respond with a 15-second elevator pitch.
*** “Working the room”.
*** Trying to “make an impression”.
*** Seeking opportunities to capitalise on potential relationships, including looking for sales opportunities amongst fellow members and/or guests.
*** Thinking it was all a waste of time if you didn’t make an appointment for a sales presentation.
*** The following day, sending marketing material to everyone you met.

What Do I See, It's A Giant Advertising Balloon
They say that the bigger, the better.

Change Management, HP, Identity Theft Issues, Political Correctness and the Future of Corporations
Apparently we are seeing a little bit more change management at HP, as the CEO Dunn resigns amid FBI investigation over the use of unauthorized spying on phone records. Why are they getting rid of the CEO who had nothing to do with it at all? Well, it seems in an interview Dunn, had answered that; YES, she would resign if the board asked her too. Of course the politically correct liberal board of directors was

What’s the Alternative?
The far better, more effective, more enjoyable alternative turns out to be very simple. Just remember that networking is about finding business soulmates. You absolutely should not be looking for business at your networking group’s meetings. You’re looking for business people with whom you have things in common, with whom you can build solid, authentic relationships.
You won’t form those relationships at the meetings themselves. Those meetings are opportunities for members to introduce guests to each other, to grow the membership, to perhaps take tentative steps toward building relationships, and to consolidate great existing relationships within the context of the community. The real relationship building takes place in the one-to-one more casual meetings in between: the coffees, drinks, lunches, dinners, or sports matches that give people opportunity to get to know each other at a much deeper level.
It is out of these relationships that advocacies, alliances, mentorship, and pipelines of red hot referrals flow. Those things are the natural product of a relationship build on solid foundations. And you can’t fake it! If you try to fake it you will smell!
I have a golden rule of effective networking that I hope is shared by many others. Very simply it’s this: “If it’d be rude around the dining table at home, then it’s rude when you’re networking.
