In your marketing and verbal communications, are you speaking to your industry or to your ideal target market? Too many companies get caught up in speaking their own industry jargon, and then wonder why their prospects look at them like a deer with headlights in their eyes or their websites are viewed at a nano-click and then the prospect if off to other cyber places. To engage your ideal customers is to speak to them on their terms, in a way that says you "get them" like no one else and that you can solve their problems, ease their pain, meet their need, and give them what they want better than anyone else. To reach your market, communicate to them not only to separate you from the pack, but also says you understand what they really need and seek. Learn more about speaking to your market in Secrets # 13 (Masters of Mindshare), #17 (Informing Customers), and #26 (Virtual Receptionist) in my book, 50 Marketing Secrets.

PROFIT MINING WORKSHOP AT CVCC ON AUGUST 23RD: I will be presenting the Small Business Challenges course titled, "Profit Mining - Improving the Profitability in Your Company" in conjunction with the Catawba Valley Community College Small Business Center in Hickory on Thursday, August 23rd from 9 a.m. - noon in the CVCC East Campus building, Room #975. This workshop is not just about number crunching, but about uncovering and discovering hidden profits and cash flow in your business in areas that, chances are, you have not considered. You will learn the three areas to profit-size for better strategic decision making, the four areas of income that most business owners do not properly allocate which directly affect a fifth income area and the three resources not used effectively in conjunction with money to make it stretch further in a business. Best of all, the last hour of the workshop will allow you to put what you have learned immediately into action in your business as I guide you through profit sizing and MORE!
