This is a great topic O. My sense is if you are responding to e-mail communications at all hours of the night, it implies that you are working long hours, and are doing many things yourself. This will give the impression that you are a small organ...

Where do I get my Energy from??

In my business, I meet over 500 people a year. And when we get to know each other, I am often asked where do I pull my energy from. Owning a direct sales organization, I have to maintain a high level of positive energy which is pulled from a higher source. I also surround myself with great people who are at a "higher" level than I am, so I can get better in all areas of my life. I also read http://wp.me/pCHcq-T

Building a company involves improving your product, selling your produ… Continue

The "Im Not Really Selling you Something Technique"

This week was instructive because two different sellers attempted the “I’m not really selling you something technique”. One was successful and one was embarassing in his futility. The doorbell rings and I can see through the glass that there are two people on the front porch. Since we weren’t expecting anyone and no one in his right mind drops by our… Continue

How to leave a voice mail to get a return call.

Most business owners and sales people that leave VM’s in the B2B sector typically leave the same message. “Hi, my name is Joe Blow, from CoCoMo, and I would like to speak with you about what we do, and how we can make you alot of money using our products. BlAH, BLAH, BLAH.

What has worked for us is to leave a “value proposition” laced voice mail like this. “Hi, this is Joe Blow from CoCoMo, and I want to chat with you a few minutes about how we are helping a similar company in another market in… Continue
