Get Rid of the Weakest Link in Your Business

    You know what? I’m picking up some great tips from a few of the emails I’m getting lately. Yes, I get a ton of email to my general inbox and it can take time to sort the weed from the blooms but there are some people’s emails that never get deleted on my first glance through the inbox, even if I have no time. Sean Mize is one of them. He is just downright sensible. Non-pitchy. Take today’s example of an email. This is the guts of it apart from a brief intro and outro. What is the weakest link in… Read More »Get Rid of the Weakest Link in Your Business

    How Much Do You Believe In What You’re Doing?

      I received an interesting email just recently. Sure, it was a promotional email with an affiliate link to a product. But the content of the email was a bit different to the usual “my friend has this great offer you’re gonna love” type of spruiking emails that get thrown about. The email has some interesting and thought-provoking content and it’s provided here for you: Dan Kennedy here. I was taught the level or strength of your beliefs shows in your results. Another way to say it is that outcomes reflect beliefs, and the most important beliefs are, I think as… Read More »How Much Do You Believe In What You’re Doing?

      Contests and Giveaways – Tip

        I have not ever offered a contest or competition or giveaway for people to attend one of my live programs. Nor had Danny from Firepole Marketing. Now he has for his upcoming program. I noticed how he did it and it was pretty normal. Email the offer and explanation to his list. Have a landing page for people to enter. Have a basic question to meet entry requirements. But then I was impressed with what he did next. Once you enter you’re given the opportunity to increase the number of entries you get by inviting others to enter. Clever. Greed… Read More »Contests and Giveaways – Tip

        Checked Out Your Stats Lately?

          I know it’s something I don’t pay enough attention to – my numbers. I have SlimStat set up on my blog and occasionally tap into it to see whether my blog is trending up and what posts are more effective. I have Google Webmaster which I rarely visit yet I should because it provides a terrific set of data to analyse what’s happening on your blog and where it can be improved. Online sites that give you a quick analysis of your blog are also useful. One I looked at today gave me a Keyword Analysis of my site. The… Read More »Checked Out Your Stats Lately?

            Autoresponders are one of those time-saving inventions. Automating the emailing of clients and prospects has meant one can batch-create a series of messages and schedule them to be sent out at a pre-determined time sequence.  Few businesses today do not use them, even if it’s only to send a monthly newsletter. There are lots of benefits to using an Autoresponder and here are a few – check if you are taking full advantage. Maintain a client database.

            Goals: Are Obstacles Stopping You?

              I’ve taught goal setting and achieving for years. I’ve had a lot of success with my course participants having accomplished many targets they set themselves. But you know the story about plumbers’ taps? Yep. I’m not as good at setting and achieving my goals as I would like to be. Actually, that’s not true. I set goals. Lots of them. I know my targets. What I am challenged with is keeping on to achieve those goals. It reminds me of a Henry Ford quote.   A lot of solopreneurs have this challenge. There are so many daily obstacles to reaching… Read More »Goals: Are Obstacles Stopping You?
