Successful Sales - How To Turn No Into Yes!

I have been writing articles over at http://www.ezinearticles.com/

You can too! Each article will contain a link to your website or blog and can help you secure quality free traffic. It is the best starting point for developing your SEO approach! Here is an article I have just submitted. It is 400 words long and I have submitted it under the category Business - Sales Training. Get writing: you'll be surprised how much you know! Turn your words into cash and become a published author for free! Here's my new article:-

Your sales approach: is it really working for you? Or could you fine tune it a little?
Everything about sales starts with you. And in business first impressions really do count! So check your dress and your address before you begin! Do you give a polished impression or are you a rough diamond?
Before you start work for the day check your mental attitude: are you feeling positive? Bright? Or negative and dull? This will require long term work on your self belief and developing for yourself Positive Mental Attitude.
Do you feel confident in your self? In your presentation? In the products you promote?
A good product self promotes so if you are failing to secure the success you deserve then seriously consider the product: it could well be you need to source a better product range and a better company!
Are you addressing the buyers? Do you sound confident? Are you in charge? Do you know your product information? Do you use your product? A car salesman will achieve great results by driving the car he sells: he will radiate good humour, confidence, professional knowledge from a standpoint of personal experience.
Sales presentation is both an art and a science.
Do you address your buyers by name? Do you consciously create rapport before launching into sales talk? Are you interesting? Do you have a story to tell? Can you give examples of how this product has solved problems for other clients? Letters of recommendation? Photos? A success portfolio?
Most important of all, and most neglected: do you listen? Do you let your client have their say? Talk less about your product sales message and listen a good deal more to your client's point of view and time without number you will close the sale and secure repeat sales for your company.
So skyrocket your sales today by working on your PMA, your self confidence, your knowledge of and belief in the quality of your product, polish your presentation, greet your buyer by name, smile, create rapport, and above all, be a good listener.
The sales person who listens will succeed. Be a listener!
What problems does your client have? What solution can you provide? Be bright, awake, top of the morning and truly expect to receive the order. I would rather buy from a cheerful genuine person than get a discount with a bad attitude! How about you?

Nothing succeeds like success!

Ebay self sabotage with sky high store fees - how to improve your seasonal sales with canny marketing promotions

Have you checked lately how much your ebay store is costing you in monthly fees?

Well take a look! Rhubarbrockstar was costing more per month in ebay selling fees than we were actually selling so it's time for a move back to the basic auction format! Perhaps you too can save by closing your shop and focussing on auctioning instead! Check it out.

This season bidders are flocking to online auctions to buy Christmas essentials from cards to decorations. What can you source at wholesale which you could auction on eBay and sell bigtime?

Don't miss out on the lucrative marketing sales rush up to Christmas even in the so-called credit crunch! Christmas spending is never in recession, I mean, do you really want to tell your friends "sorry guys but I need to cut back my spending..." No! Everyone will be spending bigtime this season on gifts and tableware so get yourself a pen and paper and jot down cool ideas of what you could be selling to maximise your profit potential in November and December this year.

It's not all doom and gloom!

Indeed, throughout the rest of any year we have to continually step up the marketing resources to convince folk to buy, buy again, keep on buying and tell their friends, but running up to Christmas no-one needs persuading to spend money! Just throw yourself in front of the annual spending stampede by figuring out what people want at what price, source it, sell it!

How do you cut through the multitude of competition for your product? Simple: ADD VALUE! Be the best offer for the best price by throwing something in free! And let your customers know you value them! Contact folk who spent with you this time last year. Offer them a loyalty discount or bonus.

Christmas is the great time of giving so regarding your marketing promotions you need to be giving added value constantly and not least in your overall customer service. Get folk to return and recommend YOU! Offer a unique package. Be the best!

No matter what you sell, you can close more sales this fall by offering more per dollar or pound than your rivals: put the giving back into Christmas!

Season's Greetings! Louise aka Zowoco

New Internet Marketing Business Strategies at Zowoco

Back to the grind! Summer over and the long haul up to the end of 2008 kicking in!

How do you feel? Nice and relaxed and focussed after a good holiday break, or just bloody knackered and disorientated?

I'm staggering in here somewhere between the two, I think! Time to step up the eBaying strategies running up to Consumermas (25 Dec)!! Time to restructure my ebooks and offers here at Zowoco Marketing. Time to blog anew and get back into the social networking rat race! Time to look at some quality advertising and online promotion opportunities. Time to surf for new deals, learn new stuff...instead of which I shall probably just kick my boots off and settle down with a long piping hot coffee and read "Hard Times"!!

Beat the credit crunch this fall by diversifying your income sources. Trust no one and boot Luck out the window: rely on your self! No one is going to do you any favours in a recession. Step up your advertising for your businesses, ask yourself key questions: "who is gonna buy my gunk?" "where are they, who are they?" "what do they read?" and get in there!

Advertising is not some expensive opportunity for you to look good on cheap paper! It is the key means of contact between you and whoever is to buy the gunk you offer. So get it right! If something isn't working figure out why, withdraw that source, ask yourself what will work and get onto something new. See your offer from the average punter's viewpoint: why would anyone want that??!! Offer something irresistable, get the pricing right, deliver on time, add some extras, smile...it's all basic stuff!

I am currently making money offline with a variety of unambitious projects: delivering pizzas and takeaway food at the weekends for some easy cash-in-hand pocket money, teaching piano (which I'm rather damn good at), selling stuff out my loft (never seems to diminish!), and my new skill...tiling. I made a wonderful bodge of a bathroom this last week...plenty more bathrooms out there, I guess! When you consider every house has at least one bathroom and a kitchen and the odd floor, hey, that's a lot of tiling I can get to bodge up!

So I have to crack the code of where to advertise (who wants tiling done? What do they read?), then give a spot-on quote (difficult to predict correctly) which wins for me but appeals to the punter, then get the work done quickly and well, then - worst of all - actually collect the payment. And there you have it! Get all that in place and before you can say "Jolly Hockey Sticks" you should be getting work from recommendations from clients you've pleased in the past...easy, really? Now you try! It's a ruddy minefield.

But I'd rather keep hitting a brick wall running my own businesses than turn up at the right time in the right clothes with the right attitude for a "boss" figure. Coz that don't cut for me. And if you want to ride this marvellous "credit crunch recession 2008" then it ain't gonna cut for you either. Sure, you want to keep your current employment, well who doesn't (apart from me)? But get wise and start your own eBay biz, clear out your garage and loft, do some part time work, teach something you know to those who don't, start up a franchise opportunity, begin your own part time business even if all you can do is scrub, dogwalk or babysit, but just get the pennies rolling in and beat the so called credit crunch for yourself by adding to your income instead of overspending all the time (like we all do)!!

After all, you've only got yourself to blame!

Keep ya posted, Louise alias zowoco

PS: I've been offline so long this summer, eBay has busted me and I'm in hiding...hey, no telling!

Good Luck! :)

Zowoco Marketing Takes it Easy for Summer 2008 Business Promotion!

Summer's here so get the deck chairs out!

I seem to be taking longer and longer between blog posts...I am still hovering the 250 miles between Wales and Sussex, and try my best, my ebay shop inventory seems to be partly in one place and partly in the other, and never where I want it! Well, I have been offloading some household bits at a local Boot Sale which isn't quite as horrific as it seems, especially if you are up for springing out of bed at 5am on a Sunday morning! It is a good place to give away some of my business cards for my new Tiling business which I am calling A1 Tile 4 Style.

I am also clearing out attics and cupboards for more golden oldie bits to sell at auction, online, at bootsales and through classified ads. Good to get rid of some flotsam! During August I aim to get out and about daily from 9am to 3pm travelling around the South East of UK putting my new Tiling business cards around in Tile shops, DIY, local shop windows, pubs, wallpaper shops...

Do you have any ideas for inexpensive advertising, promotion and marketing?

If so, leave a comment here, thanks!

Zowoco Marketing likes to cheapskate regarding business expense!

I have had some business card fridge magnets printed up to give each client so they know where to find me again and as a talking point for their visitors! Fun novel idea, I thought. They weren't expensive at 17p each!!

Try http://www.vistaprint.co.uk/
I had 5000 cards printed for £50 and was able to customize my own trendy design! You'll love these options. Why not get some cards printed up to promote your website or blog offline? You won't find cheaper on the planet.

Ok, I'm off for some liquid refreshment before I travel across the country again tomorrow! Keep checking into http://www.zowocomarketing.com/
for all the best online and offline promotion ideas for yoyur businesses! Have a great August and be sure to get out away from the computer screen and sample the sun! Chus!

Start Today: Set Aside A Part Of All You Earn To Secure Wealth For Your Future!

Today I was lucky to get into work: the road down to the training unit was closed off ten minutes later due to a huge fire in a furniture warehouse just yards from the Tiling factory where I am learning my new recession-proof trade!

There were 20 tenders from the Kent fire brigrade and 100 firemen to cope with what looked like a nuclear fall out. Meanwhile the sun appeared and I completed a kitchen wall mosaic of which I am very proud! Shifting from twenty years of music and teaching to a construction trade is challenging to say the least, especially to my sense of time keeping. All in a good cause, however: the betterment of my bank balance!

Well, I am a very expensive lass. Give me ten hours and I can spend my way through any fortune, indeed, several in just the one day...

So I am attempting to secure myself an income that to some extent keeps pace. Every now and then I take a ten minute break in my tiling and read a snippet from my all-time favourite wealth wisdom book "The Richest Man in Babylon" by George S. Clason. Get a copy from Amazon, you'll benefit greatly from this timeless classic first published in the 1920's.

A Part Of All You Earn Is Yours To Keep

Is the basic theory behind this wisdom. When you spend all that you earn in any one month, or, in this age of easy credit, more than you earn, then you rob yourself of the foundation of your future wealth. The book teaches you, chapter by chapter, to set aside a percentage of your income to invest. Because by investing (paying yourself) you will create incomes for yourself whereby your money makes money, as opposed to drawing income solely from your work efforts month after month, year after year.

Even if you can only set aside a tiny amount monthly the magic starts in the simple fact that you have firstly decided to actively DO something about your financial future, not just talk about it, and secondly you are training yourself to rely on your own efforts, not Lady Luck, and therefore you will begin to become aware of opportunities as they arise where you can make your money make more money. Eventually the growth of this set aside capital, no matter how small a beginning will grow your wealth, your family estate.

You are tempted to scoff this simple concept but every fortune through the ages had to start from a tiny seed! So start yours today! You never have enough from your present salary to buy all you desire, therefore it cannot hurt you to set a little aside. No excuses! The real secret lies in the fact that you have made a vital change of heart: you set yourself responsible for your future, you choose to become wealthy, to do what it takes, you begin to believe in your own abilities and you quit procrastinating. A subtle change takes place in the way you value yourself and the value you place on not only your money, your income, but in what it takes you to earn that income: the effort you put in! You quit waiting and begin commanding.

You begin to command that your money WORK FOR YOU! Earning interest, growing. Building wealth for your future. You place great value on your own self reliance. You expect great things from your Life, and you buzz with the excitement of seeing the things you truly desire begin to evolve for you. In effect, you take command of YOURSELF! And who else should? So today, set aside a small part of your earnings and determine that come what may, you will NEVER spend this amount, or any other you set apart: this is the seed of the capital that will surely build your wealth. Expect great things, be prepared for them.

I am going to make a habit each week of buying one item from the local classified ad paper and reselling it at profit. A small beginning, but a good starting point, one calculated to effortlessly grow a little capital for me to invest. At first the money will go into a 90 day account to minimize the likelihood of my spending it, then into a six month National Savings Bond, then into other profitable investments I choose. This takes my money through a system that places it further from my spending!

In a short while I will have a new SAVING habit established, and from there I will begin an INVESTING habit. I see saving as setting aside from spending, and investing as growing the money you save by attracting the awesome power of compound interest. Anyway, go grab yourself a copy of the book. And read it many times over. Believe in yourself. Who else is going to?

Catch you later,

British Recession Believed To Be Just Three Months Away: Safeguard Your Income Now!

When a major recession appears imminent all is not doom and gloom for you as an individual, even if the big picture is unhealthy for your work environment. Smile on through!

In recession which industries continue to do well? Get your work efforts and your investments there! Not everyone goes down during recession so ally yourself with the winners. The construction and property renovation industry stands to boom in this forthcoming financial climate. Multi millionaire property developers continue to place large contracts for construction companies and labourers.

As individual homeowners come under pressure to keep up their mortgage repayments during the gloom of rising living costs, static wages, and mass redundancy, inevitably many will fall by the wayside and lose their house to repossession. This is good news for the developers who pick up these properties at incredible bargain prices at auction as the banks and building societies are desperate to offload this burden and captalize at least some gain from the repossessed properties.

Can you make good here? Invest shrewdly in property development opportunities. Relocate your job to the construction trade! Take out your savings and buy property at auction. As property prices drop you get more bang for your buck. Hold and rent out: the property sector always rises in time. Most ultra wealthy persons have made at least some of their fortune through property in one form or another. Don't overlook the commercial property market!

This is a great time, no matter what your circumstances, to learn all you can about property: location, purpose, building, development, tenanting, reselling. Determine that you too will build your wealth through property this next decade. See what is available abroad, especially in the new EU countries. Once your legal team steer you through the language minefield you will soon discover a world of opportunity awaits: property abroad is much cheaper than here in the UK. Houses sell for half the UK value in the US. What does France, Bulgaria, or the former USSR have to offer?

My tiling course is proving good fun: I am now in my second week of (hopefully) six. I have tiled bathroom walls, a shower, flooring. I have become familiar with grout and adhesive and shaping tiles to fit awkward spaces. Now I will study more complex areas such as tiling on an angle and mosaic work. I want to buy a property so I can have fun tiling the bath and shower rooms now! Although I believe residential buy-to-let is 100% pain. Commercial property is the ballgame to get involved in. Tiling is my passport to a trouble-free strong income to ride the recession wave and create a strong financial backdrop for myself for the future.

You can find out more about this at www.alpinetiling.co.uk

Chus! Keeping you posted on recession-proof income and investing,

PS do you know of any UK based funding for trade courses or small business start-up? Please leave contact details as a comment as I will find this really helpful, thanks a lot :)

Create Yourself A Recession-Proof Income For Financial Stability And Self Assurance

Hi again! It has been an age since I sat I last sat down and typed a blog post here.

I have now moved to a small seaside resort on the South coast of England called Bexhill-on-Sea. My laptop has completely crashed and will have to be sent back to the manufacturer this week! So I have stopped for an hour in an internet cafe.

The vulnerability to internet and computer technology to hacking, crashing, viruses and wear and tear makes me somewhat cynical regarding entrusting one's efforts entirely online at present! Nevertheless, with the present credit-crunch and forthcoming recession situation I am very keen to create myself a new income which is entirely recession proof.

So I considered for some time: what British industries are never prone to recession? I decided the safest industry is the construction industry. There are so many jobs from garden design to architectural technician, plumber to insulation fitter, bricklayer to glazier. I attended a construction trade fair, spoke to every exhibitor and found some really useful contacts. I built up a picture of the opportunities available from apprenticeships to intensive courses; employment to self-employment and setting up your own business.

It is always a major challenge in anyone's life to opt for a radical career change, and I am female, 36 years! Yet I was constantly assured by the people with whom I spoke that many women in their thirties are turning to the construction industry, even securing apprenticeships with major employers. Google search for job opportunities, training opportunities construction and see what you can find: this could be the break YOU need right now if your current income is not enough.

I am particularly keen on an option I have discovered which allows me to combine training for a new trade with earning an NVQ level 2 (a vital trade qualification) and gives me the option to continue my piano teaching in the evenings too! May I recommend you www.bconstructive.co.uk
as a great British training forum. You will find this a helpful starting point. It is never too late to start afresh or change track: one of my piano pupils began piano at age 85 and is still enjoying lessons six years later! :)

So if your internet income is not yet matching your expectations, do consider looking into a career change fr yourself and taking some of your spare time to enjoy blogging! Be flexible, be hopeful, never give up and allow yourself some time to fully consider all the best options for yourself in all you do.

Can I recommend you take a little time to browse my blog posts here and click on some of the opportunity banners down the left hand side here? It will be a week or two now before I can easily resume regular blogging but I passionately believe in the products and services I promote here which I think will really help you begin to create residue online income!

Meanwhile I am building myself new income in the three dimensional world too: there is always a danger one relies too heavily on the "instant magic" of the enticing world wide web and becomes detached from the greater opportunities that exist in the REAL world outside!

It seems to me that no matter how technologcally advanced mankind becomes, no matter how increasingly dependent on telecommunications and electronics, the timeless human industries are ever a rock solid foundation for wealth: construction, building and property are still "safe as houses"!!!

Good Luck in your endeavours, never give up, never allow yourself at a loss: no matter what transpires pick yourself up and get out and about and look around you and start asking people questions "How can I?" "How do you?" "Is this?"

I once read this, which has never left me: THE QUALITY OF YOUR LIFE IS IN DIRECT RELATION TO THE QUALITY OF THE QUESTIONS YOU ASK!

All the best this week!

Success Motivation Can Inspire You For Life!

Zowoco Marketing is all about Success Motivation!

You too can motivate yourself for Success in every area of your Life! There are sixty seconds in every minute: what good is it going to do YOU to be miserable or thinking negatively in any of those sixty seconds? Train yourself to think positively in every situation and accept nothing less than total Success Mentality from Yourself!

End knee-jerk reactions! Enjoy complete control over your temper. Have fantastic relationships! Enjoy the views of people you meet without forcing your personality upon them! Learn to listen constructively. No one else is YOU, no one is much like you and thank goodness for that, eh? Just accept that people are different: they are neither good nor bad, they are just different.

Start to think in a neutral stance about everything around you and all that happens to you. It probably wasn't anyone's fault: it just happened. Something has to happen. It did. You can cope! Go for a long walk to shrug it all off, or watch a favourite comedy, or dip into a warm foamy bath! Things just happen, people are themselves: stop taking everything so personally. Why should it all affect you? Just let it ride.

Just let it ride!

Once you can take onboard the "Just Let It Ride" philosophy you are ready to start thinking positively! Be optimistic. Good things can happen. Especially if you start looking out for them! See silver linings instead of clouds. See the parts of people's personalities that please you, that are in tune with your own, that you admire. Be cheerful. Sing a bit. Life's not so bad! It's not that bad. It's not as bad as you think it is. Even if it is all bad, determine that today is going to be a little brighter! Just a shade, say!

You can make your own luck by developing a pleasing personality. Accept other people for what they are. Smile with them. Avoid the people you really don't like, or don't get on with. Be good natured and good humoured. Maybe today is quite a nice day! Maybe the people around you quite like you! Maybe you can do a little good here and there? Help someone? Listen to someone's troubles? Empathize? Other people have clouds too!

So what is Success Motivation and how can it turn YOUR LIFE around?

Develop yourself a Purpose in Life! Aim to achieve that! Decide to be a little more tolerant today in your attitude towards the people around you. Laugh a little. Sing a little. Smile. Go out of your way for someone. Buy somebody a gift. Do something unusual. And go for a walk alone to think about your strengths and weaknesses, what you want to achieve this week, what you aim to achieve this month, maybe! Get to know yourself. Decide to be. Become. Whom? What?

I like to encourage a person to feel achieved about what they have done so far in Life. I like to encourage this person to move always towards the things they want, like, what makes them feel happy, what next they want to achieve for themselves. To gain ever greater goals outside the bog-standard of feeding, clothing and housing oneself. Do you like art? Music? Nature? Travel? Join a new society and learn something new. Meet new different people. Quit shooting your mouth off or feeling angry! Or if you can't, join your local political party!

Aim to enjoy a greater life than you have now: aim to be a greater person! Someone with Vision. Someone who sees! Someone who gets things done. Enjoy more. Set aside much more time daily for yourself and your interests. Be prepared to meet people who think differently to you! Accept them, they cannot be you! Only YOU can be you! Know thyself? Be yourself!

Determine to be the person you want to be, where you want to be, with whom you want to be, doing what you enjoy, as you like it! Why else? Sixty seconds filled with good feelings is a darn fine minute! And if you feel good, I guess you are thinking positively! Less cloud, more silver lining. Accept yourself. Accept others. Let it ride. Keep calm, balanced, serene. Eat strawberries! Drink mineral water. Be cool. The world keeps turning round no matter whether you rant and rave or just stay focussed!

Create a new business with great new ethics. Step where no one has gone before. Keep in credit. Be happy - grin! Go places. Throw out your wardrobe and start again. Make wine. Get a fantastic new car. Give to your favourite charity: donate the price of a holiday and feel good about it! Make a few extra people happy this week in little caring ways. Shout at a few less. Way to go! Invest more time in yourself and determine to slowly become the person you want to be.

Choose a new direction for your work. Be content with what you have done so far. Relax!

Get a grip! No owes you. You owe no one. Start out anew. Today is going to be different. Tomorrow is going to be different. You are going to take more time out to just plain enjoy yourself. Why not? What else were you planning? List the things you like, list all that you want to achieve some day and start out right away achieving some of these! Plan that holiday, buy the art supplies, the easel, learn to dance. Learn whatever, do whatever, go whatever, AND LET IT RIDE! Be motivated. You'll soon be successful too! Hey, you already are a Success! So grin a bit!

I say go on, try this! You say you cannot. I say, what is so good now in your Life you cannot change? Just grin a bit! You see, it not so bad! You have the power to change not only your Life but everyone around you. Think positively, see the silver linings, start to be really CREATIVE in every aspect of your Life, accept things, keep serene, go for it, be YOU!

Thanks for reading, all de best!

How To Boost Your Ebay Store Traffic Visitor Volume Massively!

Do you have an ebay shop or store? Selling well? Would you like to drive more people there yourself or just let ebay take control of your business and profits?

How can you promote your store yourself outside of ebay?

Here is the post I wrote today on my ebay blog. It opens a new train of thought for me! Have a read and then I will leave you to comment and add your own ideas!


Do you want more people visiting your ebay shop? More than the numbers you get from ebay searchers only?

It is time to take control of your ebay store business and focus on driving online visitors straight from Google search and Yahoo to your store, rather than to ebay itself!

A little extra time spent on this daily will soon pay off big dividends for your profits!

The way to do it is this: go to blogger or wordpress and begin your own blog. It could be about ebaying, how to keep 100% feedback or how to source cheaper goods at wholesale, it could be funny stories of selling or a forum where ebayers exchange views! The possibilities are endless, and ebaying is a very popular subject worldwide.

The other thing is to blog about the niche market interest your store specialises in. So for example, if you sell camping equipment you could blog about campimg, campsites, routes, hiking, camping equipment, again a big list of possibilities. Talk about the products you sell on ebay and feature a product of the week.

Lead people from your blog to your ebay store. If you can provide interesting useful information on your blog then people will be glad to come and see your store. Provide a link straight to your store front from each and every post on your blog.

I bought a redirection URL to help people find my ebay store easier: http://www.zowoco.com/
You could try this, too, and link the name into your blog name, so for instance I could have zowocoblog.com

The next thing is to take time each day to promote your blog and get traffic visitors to read it and then link to your store! I discuss this blog marketing approach in my online marketing blog called http://www.zowocomarketing.com/

Keep up-to-the-minute, look around, never be afraid to try anything new! You will find having a blog outside of ebay can really boost your ebay selling. Good Luck! :)

So, what do you think? Have you ever seen a blog that truth to tell, is devoted solely to promoting a blogger's ebay store items?

This is something that came to me today and I like the concept of creating a marketing blog to promote my ebay shop. I just need to find some products of international interest to stock in my ebay shop! Have a look for yourself at http://www.zowoco.com/

You can read the original blog post there, and may I recommend you read my About Me page on eBay? Thanks! I want you to consider this and see if you too can profit more easily in this way from ebay? Great marketing success online! Cheers,




Louise (aka Zowoco)

Perception Is Reality

I was never supposed to be a speaker, author and sales trainer. I was supposed to be a ballerina.

I grew up in Pittsburgh, PA. My mother has told me that when I was a small child I would constantly turn on the radio and dance. She said I had no sense of rhythm and so she enrolled me in ballet class. That was the beginning of a first career and a great passion.

As a child I danced with Pittsburgh Ballet Theater, always one of the child guests in Act I of Nutcracker. As I grew older, it was the corps de ballet, Snowflake and Waltz of the Flowers. I was even the Sugar Plum Fairy a few times!

At age17 I moved to New York City to dance, and like every artist in the City, needed a day job. At first I waited on tables. Then I found something more lucrative and more fun—telemarketing.

An ad in “Backstage,” the trade publication we would read to look for auditions, caught my attention. It was an ad for a telemarketing company. They would hire actors because actors can read scripts. (Hiring tip: If you are looking for a part time telemarketer—hire an actor.) The job was calling high-level executives and setting new business appointments. I got the job and was really good at it. Who knew? Ballet dancers don’t even talk.

Eventually the telemarketing company started to give me all the “hard leads,” the Presidents, the CEO’s, the people who “didn’t take cold calls.” I’d call them, up, get them on the line, have a great conversation and set up the meeting. It was fun and it was easy.

Years later when I started my training and coaching business I thought that all that was necessary was to show clients a system and help them write a good script and we would be finisheddone. Imagine my surprise upon discovering all of the human and psychological barriers people face when prospecting by telephone.

That sent me back to the basics to think about not only the system and scripts but also the thought process and mind set as well. I realized something fascinating.

At the time of that initial telemarketing job, I was 19, rather naive and inexperienced in the ways of the world. I lived in a small apartment with four other dancers. I made very little money. Yet, when I would pick up the telephone to call that CEO or President, believe it or not, I felt that I was superior. I may have been calling someone who made 100 times more money, someone who lived in a wonderful house or apartment, someone whom everyone would consider to be the epitome of success, yet I felt superior because I was an artist. My belief system at the time was simply that artists are superior in every respect. It never occurred to me that prospects would be anything but delighted to speak with me.

While my mind set and beliefs about the business and corporate world, my place in it and my “superiority” have changed drastically over the years, that belief system was what enabled me to successfully pick up the telephone and speak easily with high-level executives. Perception is reality. Although my life circumstances at the time were far from ideal I didn’t view it that way.

The thoughts and beliefs that you have about yourself directly impact your ability to perform and be successful. While it is not necessary to believe yourself to be superior, as once upon a time I did, it is imperative that you see yourself and your prospects as peers and equals. If you do not, it is time to change your thought patterns. Instead of thinking about how important your prospect is, think about all of the ways that your prospects and customers need you. Think about how you help. Think about the benefits that you bring. Start to see yourself as an equal with something of value to offer. Determine that your prospects will be happy to speak and work with you. Perception becomes reality.

I close with my all time favorite quote by Henry Ford who said:
“Either you think you can or you think you can’t and either way you’re right.”

Blog Marketing: a new niche?

Marketing aimed especially at bloggers who want to build a readership: will this become a specific niche of internet marketing?

Today I was reading an interesting and thought provoking post on a blog aimed at challenging the blogger who wants to grow their readership and make money.

http://www.blogtrepreneur.com/2008/02/26/influence-your-niche

Click on the link to read the post. It is entitled "How To Have An Influence On Your Niche"
and outlines ten ideas to build your blogging business experience, all of which you will find useful and thought-provoking. I will highlight the ten concepts here and let you go over and read the blog post yourself.

1. Focus on quality of content
2. Read and comment on other blogs
3. Write guest posts for other blogs
4. Participate in social media (such as stumbleupon.com)
5. Participate in forums
6. Write follow ups to posts from other bloggers
7. Launch a community aspect to your blog (eg a forum)
8. Hold a group writing project
9. Network with other bloggers in your niche through email
10. Advertise on other blogs in your niche.

I will refer back to this list in the future as I implement my zowoco online work at home based business online income blog here! Immediately, the two concepts I like best are "Write guest posts" - I can see a great future for blogging if we can all be more interactive, rather in the way ezine and newsletter authors do ad-swaps and write endorsement letters and articles for one another. Let's put the "social" into social media!

And I love the concept of buying ads space on other blogs in your niche. So basic. But had you thought of that? Do you know, this effective post on an amazing marketing blog called blogtrepreneur.com is by Adnan from the UK who is still in high school! Check it out and be sure to click on "comment" because there you can access other excellent posts you will find useful and enjoy! All the best!

zowoco marketing hits new traffic targets and discovers how YOU too can drive hundreds of visitors to your websites daily!

Have you wondered why there is such an enormous gap between websites that make a few bucks a month online and those that take in many thousands of dollars? Have you ever really pondered the difference between what one is doing that the other isn't? I mean, all other things being equal - a decent layout, good graphics, tight copy, etc...

What's the difference?

Let's look at it like this. Pretend your website is a 7-11 or Circle K convenience store on the main throughway in town. Maybe a couple hundred cars a day pass by you, and out of those, say, 50 stop. Now let's look at the competition. Their store is located on the freeway: Thousands of cars pass daily, and the result? Hundreds of customers visit and they buy.
You got it!

This seems like common sense but I'm gonna tell you right now, if you're not the store on the freeway with thousands of cars driving by daily, you need to hear this...
Time and time again I see Internet Marketers, even the experienced ones, making the same mistakes, over and over.
They design a killer product, put up a beautiful website, have some kick-ass copy written, buy a little PPC advertising, and then wait for the doors to blow off.
Can you guess what happens next?
That's right - crickets chirping in the darkness. Nothing.
The site's like a ghost town. You can almost see the tumble-weed rolling down the street.

The Difference is Traffic!
Traffic is Easy when You Know the Way...

*Would YOU like 10 thousand visitors every month to YOUR website?

*Just IMAGINE what sort of online business YOU could build with this amount of traffic volume!

*IMAGINE how busy YOUR website will be, what YOU can offer!

*YOU will feel so great when YOUR website is BUZZING! When YOUR business, YOUR opinions, YOUR ideas are at THE HUB of what is going on online!

*And it all begins with building the visitor volume YOU need for a great successful marketing business with enormous potential for high sales volume and gigantic profits!

BECAUSE WHAT ELSE WOULD YOU WANT FROM YOUR ONLINE VENTURE?

So I want to encourage YOU, follow me, start now, start today: I have just purchased this tremendous inexpensive program from one of internet marketing's greatest innovators! And together we will explode our traffic volume and therefore our sales profits SKYHIGH!

Let me introduce you to the marketer who will lead you where others only dream of!

And, of course, please feel free to leave a comment here on zowoco marketing (zowocomarketing.com) about your own success, or any questions you have about generating traffic, visitor volume, converting leads to sales, backend sales and joint ventures!

There you are, not the most recent, but a great theme! How to build traffic to your blog. This deals with more technical questions than I cover here at zowoco marketing.

I wanted a seller who would provide top service, have extremely competitive rates, and take paypal! I found http://www.namecheap.com/ I know everyone has a webhost to recommend but I really found these cheap, quick, easy, and very helpful prompt customer service. Read their forums to get help because someone will have had your problem before and it is all in there!

I have just redirected a domain I have owned for ten years (!) to my paydotcom affiliate link: I MUST recommend you breeze on over and check these out because they have so many top products for you to sell for FREE and lots of affiliate friendly banners and gadgets. You can gain a lot of commissions with paydotcom and you can even promote their products from a banner and possibly an article on an Adsense template website you may run.

First my redirect domain in action (I'm so fond of this domain, it's my golden-oldie!):-

There are so many forum subjects I am sure you will find some you can open threads in! The link is simply http://www.craigslist.org/

Well, I've been very busy researching these last three days and I have a ton of other tools for you but they can wait a day or two while I focus on building my Malls for you. I didn't go to the wedding after all. A real shame but I felt sick on Friday and Saturday so I got to and researched like crazy for you! As always! Never a day goes by but I've got my head stuck in a marketing ebook. I don't agree with these so-called "hands-off" auto-pilot sites. I mean, you may like them, but me, I LOVE this stuff!

My NEW All-Out Approach To Blog Promotion At zowoco!

Just a quickie!

I have been thinking about my long-term aims regarding what I do and what I promote, and particularly HOW I promote online, and have concluded that my ultimate strategy is to develop what I want to call "zowoco marketing"!!!

What is zowoco marketing? My own brand of marketing online!

Which is? Gradually through this blogsite I intend to research inexpensive and highly effective means to promote domains leading to affiliate promotions. High traffic volumes, to my mind, precedes all else online. If you have the 100% confidence that you can always build a huge traffic stream to any domain you set up online, how is that going to affect your business approach?

For me it means simply - at the domain gaining so many hits daily: provide an unbeatable offer your visitors will buy! A highly targeted traffic stream hits a domain you own and promote: what do they want? In any niche, the one thing they are certain to want is top quality information. So supply before they buy!

In fact, if you want to be 100% certain just exactly what your visitors want, well, you could just place a quick questionnaire thus: "Thankyou for visiting xyz site. Please help us to best help you: what do you require?" Give a multiple choice or ask "What exactly were you hoping to find on this xyz site?"

Does that sound crazy to you? But indeed it is the ultimate market research!

So I believe, you see, it matters not what your site offers, marketing on the internet is a numbers game, pure and simple. You can only ever interest, much less sell to, a percentage of your daily visitors. If that percentage is 1% then you will need more than 100 daily visitors to average one sale a day. I want more than one sale a day, I can tell you!

But I'm happy with 1% if I get 100,000 visitors to my domain daily. Because that is 1000 sales. If I clear only $20 per sale in profit, for whatever I sell, I make $20 x 1000 which is $20,000. Do you think I will be happy with $20,000 profit daily? Certainly, because I then know I have built myself a system which I can duplicate time and time again within different niches online. So the possibilities are endless!

The point about zowoco marketing is, I will be achieving all these results in the public eye, in other words, as I implement each new marketing tactic over the coming months, I will write about my progress here. And it is all FREE of charge for you! I will also be recommending products and services which I use to create these reults, and you can consider whether these might also work for you. You see, I truly believe there is room online for everyone to create residual wealth through building a successful business model.

So my aim is to introduce you to good online business models, and then to encourage you how to build these to become profitable. In other words, how to direct targeted traffic to your site once it is up and running. You can have a beautifully designed website or blog, but no hits means no sales which means no profits! And I pay my bills, buy new cars, and fill my wine cellar with PROFITS! So for me online business may be equated: huge traffic = sales = profits = success.

Huge traffic = sales = profits = success

I like to keep everything simple so I am now directing traffic here via

http://www.zowocomarketing.com/

Let's explode our traffic volumes and create a broad yet focussed new concept online: welcome to zowoco marketing!



Lots of goodies next post!

New Three Directional Approach To zowoco.blogspot.com

Back again, just can't keep away!

I've been doing rather different things today online. Every now and then a Yahoo message tells me something has sold in my eBay store (http://www.zowoco.com/) which is great because basically I only work one day a week at present while I am still in the middle of relocating, so my eBay income is paying for the marketing tools and knowhow I am purchasing. I will list some more things in my store, it's going well, in a small way!

I will do a really good blog about all the new tools I got today after the weekend: I'm going up to Oldham near Manchester for my cousin's wedding which will be a real break, I'm sure we'll have a lot of fun! It's a big drive from Sussex for the others but I will drive to Birmingham from Cardiff tomorrow anyway to teach my piano pupils so it's not far up north from there. A real North meets South affair! My cousin has 7 brothers and sisters and his bride has relatives down her arm!

Well, I have been thinking that to vary things here and keep it all relevant, fresh and interesting, I want to aim for a three directional approach to my posts. First, Business Solutions for building your income online. Second, Self Motivation. Third, I will have some posts content and keyword rich especially to pick up my search engine rankings! I will let you know how this works over the forthcoming weeks so you can try this approach, too. It is always crucial to build your traffic volume in lots of different ways.

So with that in mind I am going to post a completely different style of article I wrote today. Sometimes it is actually your personality and attitude that affects your business success, rather than your actual marketing strategies or business model itself. You can always be at work on your self discipline and self mastery! I am having 2 months off drinking alcohol, to prove to myself that I am not depend on it! This sort of self imposed fast can do wonders for your concentration, sense of Purpose and Direction, and leaves you with even more faith in your ability to carry a task to completion successfully. Here is the article:-

How You Can Improve Your Self Belief Until YOU Are Primed For Super Success - No Holds Barred!


You did it again! You bombed. Maybe you went to a job interview, maybe it was an evening out with the person of your dreams, maybe it was an online venture, or a stock market speculation. But it went wrong, even though you had your hopes pinned on this opportunity!

Where does the fine line between success and total failure really lie? Or is there a yawning chasm between the two? Can you turn failure on its heels and drag success from under the stock pile of your disappointment?

Well, I say, YES YOU CAN! And it really is a thin line indeed. Are you one of those people who feel elated one moment and then, later on in the day, feel totally distraught? Some bad news unsettles you perhaps? I am just like that! But I reason with my anxious inner nature and probe to find a deeper calm. See yourself as a winner and turn those heartaches to triumph for your self!

Ride above the mundane. Consider your priorities. In the job interview, did you concentrate on looking good, on coming across as upbeat, positive, eager, experienced? Were you focused on the impression you made? Suppose instead that you felt a deep inner conviction that it would be the firm's greatest good to hire you because...think about the strengths of this firm, their weaknesses. Are you the link? Do you want to be? What can you offer that will build more trade, stronger customer rapport, all round better business? Focus on how you will strengthen the business strategies of the firm for which you apply, and forget to trouble about your hair, your tie, your shoes. Have a deep inner conviction in your abilities. Know you can!

It is perfectly normal to be nervous at the interview, since only you know how you best face up to nerves. But if you know you have something to offer this company that gives you an edge over other applicants then stand confident and focus on the increased business you will bring about. Napoleon Hill gave some excellent advice when he said "act as if you own the company." This will help you to see the strengths and weaknesses of the company as though your were chairman, or a senior manager. Act it, become it.

I say this again: ACT IT, BECOME IT!

Think about it, what stands between you, the unconfident date, and you the successful lover? The way you act! So act just exactly as you believe the confident person would behave in the situation, and appear to have complete conviction that this is really YOU, this is how you are. You will begin to believe in yourself! And so will your partner.

As I see it, the startling difference about the confident person, who generally, in time, becomes the successful person, is this: the confident person has a deep inner conviction that they cannot fail. The person who hesitates, who fumbles, whose doubts nag at the mind and gnaw at the heart, that person is lost before they start. So from now on, try going with what you feel comfortable with. What you know in your heart you can do, well! It will make a world of difference: you don't need to be always pushing out the boat!

If you feel happy with one thing, do that. You'll find your level in time. But avoid the situations where you feel achingly nervous, because after a few of these experiences, that's how you see yourself. If you feel nervous, it is because you are out of your depth. Just dare a tiny step at a time, if you must dare at all; soon you will be a confident character whom others look up to. And interestingly, it is the quietly confident person who exudes "authority" is it not? So focus on your strengths, your likes, not your dislikes, do what you most enjoy and let Life pass you by for a while. Chances are, during this time of learning to accept yourself, there's someone watching you, weighing the balance: could you be the person to step up to middle management, or to lead this new project, or go on that course?

The opportunities come to you in the quiet reflective times in Life, you simply do not have to chase after new positions as if you were chasing butterflies! If you are good at a task, someone will notice, and reward you with a position of more responsibility. It is just like when you were a child. You may have said "I want to grow 4 inches tonight!" but chances are, you had to wait your time!

That is how Life goes, a quiet stream flowing relentlessly onward, sometimes placid, sometimes hitting the rapids and shooting forward with unbridled energy. You don't have to push yourself forward! Aim to build a reflective side to your character, let things take their course. It is a grand feeling to believe you won through, but in reality was there any need? I like to be quietly reflective, serene and unruffled by the day's events. Fate will move its charted course with no prompting from you!

Now, in no way do I suggest you should take on the attitude which says "Oh, what is the use?" That is despondency. Count on the parts of your character that never give way under pressure: that is the real you! If you have a hasty temper, worry not, you can improve the length of your patience with a little effort every day to forgive a little further than you have done in the past. Does it really matter? Or is it just your ego being bruised? Egos are like fingernails, they need constant filing! When your offended ego rears its ugly head, take no offence, but instead take a moment or two to work on your self. Walk away from the scene or apologize, even when it is clearly not your fault! I have always found this heals a rift and builds new bridges more effectively than any other reaction.

A person will find a deep respect for you when you own yourself in the wrong - after all, we all know how difficult that is! It is human nature to say hurriedly "It was not my fault! You were to blame!" Rather as Eve or Adam reacted in the Garden! We can cloak our raw personalities with grace, however and start anew! What harm does it you to back off? Turn the other cheek? It makes you stronger within, more confident in yourself, more aware of the emotional needs of others, much more likeable!

I find I can get along with near anyone if I can only find some common ground, if I climb inside their outlook and empathise with their point of view, even if it clashes with my own: after all, it is possible I may not always be right! I subtly try to command the others respect whilst at the same time building rapport with some conviction we may both hold in common. After all, surely you can't differ from that person in ALL respects? You must think alike on at least some level! Work on building your intuition and being very aware of how the other person is likely feeling in the situation - then you won't tread on so many toes as you stumble through Life.

And the day will fast arrive where you stumble no longer, but walk always calmly, serenely, confidently, for you have worked on the one thing Fate allows: your self! There is never room for two egos. Dispense with yours today! It does nothing for you and you have no need of it, and believe me, you won't miss your ego, but be glad without it! Who are you that you must always feel so important? Learn to laugh at yourself and you'll soon be very popular! And your new Life will begin: once you take the trouble to admit it could be your fault everything seems to go wrong, then suddenly everything goes right. And in a time of trouble you will have many supporters, and that quiet inner conviction you know yourself!

Life appears to be a great challenge but the truth lies nearer home: tempering your self is the challenge. Achieve that self mastery and you will lead all who are still blaming one another! There are many words of wisdom you will enjoy in the Book of Proverbs in the middle of the Bible. There 31 chapters, one for every day of the month! Who knows, perhaps the ancient people knew something of human nature? For these words have stood the test of Time! Begin today!

Technology and opinion may change from hour to hour but human nature remains the same: a wild unbroken horse to be bridled! Control first your inner nature and your reactions and you will control all that is possible in your Life. No longer will you find yourself in a nervous situation, for you will always be quietly confident in yourself. And things will improve, and move ahead for you, as sure as a child grows to become an adult. Believe in yourself: begin today!
