Marketing Lesson: Value Perceived is Money Received

Oct 122009

Several years ago I got a telephone call from a guy who thought he would appraise the value of a CD I was selling for $39.95. He thought he would affix a value of $10.00 and I would jump at the chance to make something as opposed to losing the sale. He quickly discovered he was wrong. He also discovered an extremely valuable marketing lesson that he gladly paid much more for. And he was thrilled to do it!

Watch this video to see what happened…

How can you apply this to your marketing plan?

Britt Phillips I think everone was effected in some way by the craziness of 2008. The mortage crisis, gas crisis, and the bank issues etc. The economy rapidly went south. Every business owner felt the impact of it in some way. People lost their savings, their homes, their jobs and more. I expect many will still be trying to dig their way out of their 2008 losses at the end of 2009. On top of all the stuff we all had to put upo with in 2008 I lost my mother. It was especially tough.

Like most I put together my resolutions list which included among other things, making up for 2008 and being comitted to making 2009 my very best year to date. However here’s where my resolutions list and most everyone elses differs. Or I should say here’s what I’m doing as it relates to my list. We all know the two biggest resolutions on most lists are to lose weight and make more money. Intentions are great but without action and follow through, the list might as well never been written. So let’s take a look at how I’m doing with my resolution to make more money.

I decided to commit to generating some significant money in the early stages of 2009 so it would not only motivate me and jump start my year, it would also set the tone for the entire year in terms of personal short and long term goals. I’ve been one of the all time top income earners in a particualar business opportunity for several years. This program is a direct sales program. This means my income isn’t determined by how long I’ve been in the program or any complicated compensation plan which requires the planets to allign and many other people jumping through all sorts of hoops to have success. In other words I earn based on my personal efforts. I like it much better this way because I know I am dedicated and motivated. I do not want my ability to earn money dependant on anyone else because who knows how driven or serious another person ever truly is?

The Secret That Will Guarantee Your Complete Success In Everything You Do

Sep 012008

Ever wonder why some people always seem to have their life together? You know the ones I’m speaking of. They have a well groomed lawn. Their house is always immaculate. They drive a nice car. They have a loving family. And if you aren’t careful all that sugar and sweetness can give you a cavity! Or maybe it will inspire you to emulate their success.

In order to have success in every area of your life, you must make a decision to let go of fear and embrace focus. Now I realize some will say yeah Britt you’re a millionaire already and you can simply throw money at anything that comes up and make it all well and good again. Yeah that sounds great in theory but it’s not at all practical. Being wealthy doesn’t instantly fix all your problems in life.

So before I tell you how to truly become successful, first allow me to help you define the word so you have a better understanding of what it actually is. If you have a million dollars in the bank and yet your relationships with your family and friends are horrible and lacking love, energy, and substance, do you honestly think you are successful? No matter what you may think, the answer is NO! All you are in the example is a very unhappy person who also happens to have a million dollars. Success is measured by most clueless people’s stereotypical definition purely by a monetary sum. This back-wards thinking clearly demonstrates how far away from real true success subscribers of this incorrect thought process really are. Success is not one dimensional. Success is a process of personal evolution. How one evolves by the decisions they make for themselves and those around them always becomes the determining factor in life. And it is not the balance of your bank account.

Ask a large number of people who have tried and failed in any sales related position and you’ll most likely hear things like… “I’m not cut out for sales.”… “There are too many objections.”… “No one has the money”… etc. However the fact is sales like anything else simply needs to be learned. The process must be studied. And here lies the problem. Most are lazy and do not want to take the time to discover how the sales process actually works and thusly how to be really good at it.

Let’s look at the excuses.

Top 8 Mistakes New Coastal Vacations Reps Make And How It Guarantees Failure

No Responses »

Aug 302008

Here are the eight most common mistakes the average Coastal Vacations rep makes and why they will never make any money in the Coastal Vacations program.

1) Listening to someone who can’t really help you.

There are lots of people in the Coastal Vacations program. Unfortunately not all of them are having consistent, measurable success they can easily demonstrate to you. You always want to make sure whomever you are interviewing for a mentor can clearly show you he or she is making serious money and having the kind of success you are looking for. Taking their word for it is useless and does nothing to prove anything to you. Seek out someone who has it together and can demonstrate such.

2) Thinking a “Call Center” is going to do all the work for you!

It’s not even logical that someone is going to send you a check for doing nothing and yet unfortunately some fall for this call center hype only to discover pretty quickly there is no substitute for learning the proper way to work the Coastal Vacations business. The call center model does nothing but give false hope to those who fall for it and at best breed laziness in whomever falls for it. You will never build a team of serious people and be able to generate long-term success in Coastal Vacations by wasting your time with any call center.
