  • Marketing Is A TV Drama  By : Robert Middleton
    How can you know what your clients really want? Look at TV!

    In any given week in the U.S., people watch 393 million hours of the 27 top rated shows. And the shows t...

  • Create Marketing Magic With The Right Color  By : Siriol Jameson
    Colors have a hypnotic effect on people. Many people feel drawn to azure blue, for instance.

    The odd thing about blue is that it can make you feel trusting. It is subtle. You are probably not aware of it. Other colors work in the same way. Shades of colors also have a subtle effect on your mood. Bars are often decorated in dark shades of red, grey or blue in order to soothe customers into staying.

    Split testing is what marketing is all about; right? Wrong! There is a much better way to get the answer to 95% of the kinds of questions you might consider split testing. Let’s step through it.

  • Outbound Stickiness  By : John Boulter
    Back in the late 1990s, “stickiness” was the big term; how to get web visitors to return to your site – hopefully, again and again. Today, the strategy has evolved into “Outbound Stickiness” – going out and pulling that visitor back in.

    Going back in time, there were many sticky techniques including the hosting of tools, calculators, forums/bulletin boards, and of course – my favorite – “favorites”.

    “Favorites” pre-dated good search engine results. Back then, you as a s...
  • Lowest Price – Enjoy Fast Profits  By : Sharon Albright
    Lowest price of any product is the price that is set at the minimum without undergoing any loss by either the businessmen or the customers. Before you fix the lowest prices, you should research on factors like what to sell, how to sell and whom to sell.

  • Exhibits Q&A: The Advantages And Disadvantages Of Different Types Of Exhibits And Displays  By : Ellen Hambey
    * What are the advantages and disadvantages of pop-up exhibits?

    Pop-up displays are fairly lightweight and compact. They can be folded into one or two cases. These displays are also easy to set up.

    Pop-up displays offer little in the way of flexibility, however. Because the frame must be fully opened to be stable, users cannot adjust the frame to fit smaller or larger spaces.

  • 5 Ways To Beef Up Sales...Immediately  By : Paul Lemberg
    Last week, one of my clients—we'll call him Rick—had a demo scheduled with a prospect. The standard "show up and throw up" they typically did early in the sales cycle.

    Trying to shorten the sales cycle, I asked naively, "Why does the customer want to buy? What are they trying to accomplish?" Rick couldn't tell me. I asked if he thought the salespeople knew. He said no. I gave him an assignment: he had to find out "Why," "Why now," and "What's it worth." Otherwise no demo.

  • Sales—Using The Law Of Expectancy  By : Patrick Porter
    Studies in persuasion technology show that what you expect tends to be realized. I call this the Law of Expectation, which is also one of the tenants of sales.

    As a sales professional, your expectations influence reality. I recently came across a movie called, "What the Bleep Do We Know?" It explains how our thoughts and intentions shape our reality. If you haven’t seen the movie, I urge you to do so. (You can go to http://www.whatthebleep.com/ to learn more.)

    Testimonials are a great way to build consumer confidence in your product. Hearing from other people who have purchased the product and are satisfied with the results goes a long way toward making sales.

The blurbs are great for interspersing with the text of your autoresponder messages; longer testimonials are excellent for posting on your web site.

    Internet Marketing—It Takes Time.

    It is probably safe to say that the most important, least expensive marketing tool you possess when it comes to Internet marketing on a budget is your time—the time you spend and the time you wait.

  • Which Is Better: Repeat Business Or New Customers? - Part 2 Of 2  By : Paul Lemberg
    Recently we asked which was more important: new customer growth or repeat business?

    The answer depends on your business goals. If you want fast-paced quantum growth, you should concentrate energy on adding new customers. But if your goals are more incremental - if you envision continual year over year growth in the 10 to 20 percent range - booking repeat customer revenue is far easier than adding new customers.

  • Which Is Better: Repeat Business Or New Customers? - Part 1 Of 2  By : Paul Lemberg
    Every management authority on the circuit says that loyal customers and their repeat purchases are the cornerstone of your long-term successful business. The reason is obvious: it is less costly to get your existing customers to buy more than it is to find new ones.

  • Higher Prices Lead To Higher Profits - Part 1 Of 2  By : Paul Lemberg
    I know at first glance this sounds obvious, but it may be worth it for you to think about your prices. At least just for a moment.

    How did you decide on your current pricing? Did you conduct market research to understand what prospects would pay? Or did you compare yourself to your competitors and base your price on that? Or was it a crapshoot, and random shot in the dark?

    These are the ways most people do it, and they are all wrong. Because the price you set for your p...

    Even if the decision to buy appears to rest elsewhere, women frequently have a major influence on whether or not the sale is made. It’s easy to consider the car industry as predominantly male-driven. The majority of salespersons, journalists and mechanics are male, and published statistics of new car sales are weighted toward men.

    If you sell or do something weird, or something that entails an awful lot of "information training" for potential customers, something that is very "niche" and little known to the general public, or something simply new that hasn't had time to penetrate to the major markets as yet, you can sometimes feel that marketing is a real uphill battle.
