Kim Schott writes: "I once asked the members of our program calls, how much time they were spending with prospects to close a sale. A few members, who were service providers, knew exactly how long it took them to convert a prospect into a paying client. While others, sadly, said they often spent 30 minutes with a prospect at a networking meeting, than an hour or two meeting face-to-face with THE SAME prospect (while giving advice), and than another 30 to 60 minutes over the phone (still giving advice) to THE SAME prospect. So, that is 30 minutes at a networking meeting, 1 or 2 hours face-to-face, and 1 more hour over the phone. 3 ½ hours giving advice to one prospect. No wonder they no longer needed your help. Not good."

Jody Gabourie writes: "As small business owners, we worry about contacting people too much - but no one tells us how much is too much! Many of us think that a follow-up strategy is to email or call someone a week or two after the initial contact and then maybe touch base occasionally over the next few months."

Mary McNeil writes: "There are two questions that I encounter regularly when it comes to the topic of using images on coaching websites. The first is: do I need to use pictures at all? And the second is: I don't really have to post a picture of myself up there, do I? So I'm going to give you my thoughts on both..."

David Nour writes: "Most of us cannot imagine going through the day without e-mailing or texting someone, 4CLO (for crying out loud). This begs the question, How mission critical is your social network? What critical piece of information instrumental to your personal and professional success would you need just in time, so that if the social link or connection were disrupted, it would cause irreparable damage?"

David Nour writes: "Building and nurturing business relationships must become the dye in the fabric, not the patch. Networking functions are patches; drive-by-greetings are patches; insincere getting and giving business cards are patches. Let me save you the time – the Yellow Pages serve the same purpose. Relationships should be the dye in the fabric. They should permeate through who you are and the culture of the team you’re building."

Tahmina Ghani writes: "Are you new to the home business idea? Have you seen network marketing models or Internet businesses promise you can make thousands per month. You may be thinking, yeah right; it's too good to be true. Or maybe you're thinking, yeah I tried that and all I did was waste money and alienate myself from both my warm and cold markets. There is a better way. Its not that these methods don't work, it's just that, like everything else, they too can become obsolete."

Kim Schott writes: "There are some self-employed professionals who spend a lot of time and money attending Expo's. They'll grab 5,000 business cards, get tri-color brochures printed, and network at every booth until their feet wear out. But, they still don't attract the exact target audience that will do anything and pay anything to work with them. You know this type of person, because they'll tell you that their doing all the "right marketing" and yet producing no real results at the Expo. (Hey, is this you I'm talking about?)"
