You have probably heard the saying “Success leaves clues”. One of the ways I ‘play my business game’ is by keeping an eye out for tips and clues from the BIG GUYS. I am talking big companies with big budgets.
Watching the marketing of bigger businesses gives me short-cuts and tips on WHAT works and HOW to do things. I figure: hey these companies have had thousands to millions of marketing people-hours, highly-skilled marketing/sales brains and massive budgets to experiment and learn what works to get customers in the door. It …

I really appreciate the power of direct marketing. Wanted to share another example, so you can get your head around how easy it is, to improve your cashflow. I think of direct marketing as being a magic wand. When you wave it with a little enthusiasm and skill, it gets results.
A few days ago, this is the process I used:

Okay now for those of you that know me, you will know that I ONLY recommend the best products I test and use myself.

Coaching is a beautiful process. Especially sales coaching. You see, when my clients first start the Business-Builder coaching and mentoring process, typical Limiting Beliefs I hear clients say out loud include:
“There just don’t seem to be any clients”
“Most of my therapist or service professional friends are struggling too”
