Coaching - with a listening-style

Even after 22 years of running my own business; I still believe people operating their businesses know more about what they want to accomplish than I do. Over time I have developed a style where I try and ask good questions and lead the listener to a possibility of conclusions. People love options. Next, together we try and quantify which option makes the most sense at this particular time in the life of the business. Sounds simple - but it works!

Internet Business Strategies

Our strategies succeed because we help our clients profile their ideal prospects, we locate where they congregate on the Internet and then build targeted strageies to draw those visitors to our client"s web site. Your plan would not be any different if you were planning on spending the day fishing.

Marketing Plans that Bring Results

Are you stuffing your marketing dollars down a black hole? I admit I have. Developing this simple, seven-sentence marketing plan will help sharpen your focus, add clarity to your vision, makes perfect sense, and will save you tons of money. You will be off and running an hour after it is down on paper - yes I said paper - that is an important step that cannot be left out.

• What is the marketing goal?
• What benefits will you deliver?
• Who is your target market?
• What is your marketing niche?
• What marketing vehicles will you use?
• What is your business edge?
• How much will you spend?

Of course you will need to also develop milestones and metrics to track your success.

Credit where credit is due: I picked up this plan from the Guerilla Marketing gang; it changed the way I do marketing; gave my vision clarity and increased my results many times over.

Web Designs / Re-Designs

There is nothing wrong with brother-in-laws designing your web site as long as they are in the business. Web sites need to look professional not amateurish, the navigation intuitive not confusing, the page layout inviting not imposing, the message compelling not rambling, the call-to-action up front not hidden.
