What Makes You Special?

Do you ever think of how unique you are compared to your competitors? And do you think about how special your brand, product, or service is?

When it comes to marketing your business or yourself you need to ponder about some of the following items:
– What is your uniqueness?
– What benefits do you offer?
– What makes you stand out from your competitors?
– What challenge is there in the market and can you provide a solution?

These are just a few questions to ask yourself to get started. Let me know what you think. I would like to read your comments.

Reach Out to the Old Fashioned Ways of Communication

Reach Out to the Old Fashioned Ways of Communication

I was sitting here the other night and thought to myself how almost every one of us is hooked on the digital media and online world: emails and texts and chats, facebook, etc.

Nevertheless, wouldn’t it be nice to receive sometimes a card or letter in the mail? What about just picking up the phone and talk to a person, instead of spending a lot of time writing an email, texting or typing an online message?

Occasionally, I still like to practice the old fashioned ways of communication: I like to pick up the phone and talk to people. In my opinion, talking on the phone minimizes a lot of miss-communication, and eliminates the time to think: “How am I going to say this in a message, so they understand where I am coming from?”. Sounds familiar? Well, let me share a couple of thoughts with you: one of my goals is to pick up the phone more often during the week and talk to a client or friend to congratulate them, or share good news or to just check in. And what about writing a card to a client or friend saying thanks or congratulate them? I believe that it is much more

Well, let me share a couple of thoughts with you:
– One of my goals is to pick up the phone more often during the week and talk to a client or friend to congratulate them, or share good news or to just check in.
– I implemented a once a month teleseminar where clients and prospects can call in and ask questions about online marketing.
– And what about writing a card to a client, prospect or friend saying thanks or congratulate them? I am making it a goal to write at least 1-2 cards a month to my contacts. I mostly use SendOutCards or sometimes I just hand-write a card and send it that way.

I believe that a card or hearing your voice is much more personal than receiving an email, text or an online message; what do you think?
I know we are all busy, but I just want to keep the old fashioned ways of communication alive and minimize the digital habits.
Let me know your opinion.
