Facebook vs Twitter-- what's your preference?

updates@sbcommunity.bankofamerica.com — Mon, 12 Apr 2010 11:21:04 GMT

I prefer Facebook because you can make sense of the noise and there's an ad platform for rich targeting. Also, Facebook has 100 times the traffic of twitter, so if you have to choose, it's easy. How about you?

Special needs daycare!!???

updates@sbcommunity.bankofamerica.com — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 18:23:32 GMT

Hello everyone! I am wanting to open a daycare in my surrounding area. I am a mother to a special needs child and the number one issue I have come incountered with is finding proper daycare/after school hours for my son. The daycares in my area either do not take children with disabilites or they are not properly equiped (wheelchair ramps) etc. I have talked to many parents with children with disabilites and this has always been an issue with them as well . This is my dream and one of the many reasons God gave my son to me. The problem I have right now is, where and how do I start? I have tons of ideas, but I just don't know any resources and how to start it all. Any tips would be great!!! ~Just a single mom with a dream~

The "Big 5" Breakthroughs In Business Life

Any home business owner, entrepreneur or sales professional can
multiply their income by at least 10x almost overnight and own more
autonomy, independence and security than ever before by understanding
five critical components about their business. This article exposes
"The Big 5" breakthroughs in business life you must understand in the
21st Century...

"Big 5" Breakthrough # 1:

"Who Is Your Business For?"

Do you know? Believe it or not, most don't.

Being real specific and targeted about who your customer or
prospect is opens up huge doors and allows you to become a specialist
in your area. Most businesses try to be all things to all people.

Case in point: A 'general' store makes no money but a store that
sells a very special, unique type of cake with organic ingredients
imported from a special farm in Iowa is sought after and has almost no
competition.

Get it? It specializes.

Example: Holiday Inn

Holiday Inn is dying a slow death. They do not know who their
customers are anymore. They don't target anyone. One minute you see a
commercial targeting business travelers, the next, a $69 dollar a night
special package targeting families going to Disney World.

Ritz Carlton on the other hand knows exactly who their customers
are. It is the affluent market. And they can ask whatever price they
want, whenever they want. And they can get it. Period.

They get it because they know who their business is for and exactly
what their customers want. As a result, they can then deliver, every
time.

If you don't know EXACTLY who your business is for, how on earth can you deliver your solution to them?

"Big 5" Breakthrough # 2:*

"What Is Your Business?"

Most business owners and entrepreneurs define their business too
narrowly. They focus only their products and services. The BIG income
leap comes when you focus on solutions, aspirations, and experiences.

Example: Starbucks

Starbucks does not sell coffee. Nope. Not in the coffee business.
You read that right. They are in the "Third Place Business." And
they'll even admit it.

1st place = Home

2nd place = Work

3rd place = Starbucks

It's a place people go for socialization, escape, to get work done,
atmosphere, productivity, etc. Its an experience. Oh, and by the way,
they sell coffee.

Get it? Heck, even I work at Starbucks a day or 2 a week for an
atmosphere change with no distractions. As a matter of fact, I'm
writing this article at Starbucks right now. Double espresso please!

When you know what your business is you can then, and only then,
increase the value of every customer you get. This is where the BIG
income leaps come in.

"Big 5" Breakthrough # 3:

"Positioning For Power"

Sounds dangerous, huh?

This is the bridge between # 1 and # 2. When you know your who and you know your what you can position your business for power and eventually market share.

Example: Subway

Subway changed from the fast food, sandwich business to the weight
loss business. Did you notice? Just ask Jared. They don't sell just
sandwiches. They sell weight loss.

A new who and a new what is 'positioning.' Subway repositioned
itself. They focused on the psychology of the customer not their
'stuff' and they revolutionized their entire business.

"Big 5" Breakthrough # 4:

"Where Is Your Business?"

You no longer have boundaries in your business except the ones you
create. Boundaries no longer apply and if you're only doing business in
your local area you are leaving a small fortune on the table.

Example: 1(800) Flowers.

You realize you can get flowers anywhere in town right? You pass by
a dozen options a day. So why do people insist on going online to buy
from 1(800) Flowers?

Because 1(800) Flowers has properly positioned itself with no
boundaries and a great marketing strategy allowing us all to believe
that this is a much better, more convenient option. They know where
their business is. Its everywhere. And its positioned for power.

Big 5 Breakthrough # 5:*

"Price Elasticity"

People think people buy things based on price. Dead wrong. Seriously.

Did you know in a recent poll that 75% of people polled did not
even place price in their top 5 reasons as to why they didn't buy?
Fascinating to me.

Often times it is your attitude about price that gets projected
onto the customer. As a matter of fact, 20% of people will buy a
premium price (higher price) option, IF you offer it to them. It has a
higher perceived value.

Business is about finding a who, who is not restricted by price.

In order to do that, you need to actually know who your business is
for (# 1), what your business is (# 2). Then it can be positioned for
power (# 3), and it will have no boundaries (# 4).

Then, and only then, you can find the who, who is not restricted by price (# 5)

Think about this. Read The "Big 5" Breakthroughs again and again.
Print it out. It will give you a great deal of clarity for your
business and allow you to be razor sharp in your marketing efforts so
that you too can...

Multiply your income by at least 10x almost overnight and own more autonomy, independence and security than ever before.

After all, isn't that the point of owning your own home business?

Crumbs or a loaf of Bread?

updates@sbcommunity.bankofamerica.com — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 06:49:46 GMT

I am sure you have got over 100 emails over the last week telling
you how "great" someone's product or teaching is when it comes to
Network Marketing.

How many of these 100...have the tools and skills to help you
success to your next level? Whether you are a beginner or Super
Advanced.

Now, let me ask you how many of these give you what you need for
FREE? Have you ever heard of anyone giving everything for FREE?

Probably not... People are trying to make a living out here on the net.

So, let me ask you...what is there "true" motive to get you to come
in and sing up for their free introductory material? That's
simple...building that list.

Now let me ask you...do you like being just a number? Or do you
really want to build a relationship and a friendship that will
last forever?

I have been around for a little while, following the bread crumbs
all over the internet. I have learn and picked up some things along the
way, but what do I have to show for it?

Well, until the last 3 months of my life....NOTHING! Just a lot of
little crumbs in my pocket that I could never figure out what they all
meant.

Now, there is very experienced people way above my head in this
network that I have GREAT respect for. This is not a bash on them at
all. But, if you are new, or have been in the networking business for
less than 3 years, and you are truly tired of following breads
crumbs...I have a little secret for you....

Let's become friends and I will share as much information with you for FREE that you will ever need.

See, I am not going to sell my product to you. I want to get to know you for you.

I want to hear what you did this weekend, if you have a family, what
your goals for life are, and what you goals for the next 30-90 days
are.

So, what does your crystal ball say when you look inside of it?

How would you like for me to show you more about my crystal ball? http://www.helping1on1.net/

If you want to follow the "Guru's" that are dropping bread crumbs,
then I wish you the best. But, I know it better to eat a sandwich with
2 slices of bread and not bread crumbs.

I look forward in sharing the meat you need to make your sandwich taste better with that loaf of bread that I have for you.

True Leverage vs. Implied Leverage

updates@sbcommunity.bankofamerica.com — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 06:51:23 GMT

If you are like me (and the thousands of other individuals in the
network marketing industry) and have struggled I feel your pain. But
my struggles stem from inherantly being a little lazy. All of us are
in some sense or we wouldn't be part of an opportunity.

Here is where my troubles have been in the past. I have been a part
of a few different companies (like many of you out there) and the
problem is that it has take me some time to learn the difference
between true leverage of your time and money vs. implied leverage of
your time and money.

The difference:

+*True Leverage - You can someone up with a service that
someone is already using and already gladly pays their bills month in
and month out without them ever having to come back to you to purchase
again*+

+*Implied Leverage - You have a product or service that
you continually have to go back and ask people to re-order on an
on-going basis, and the leverage comes in where you can expand with
other distributors to 'lighten the load' on how much product you
personally have to sell each month. However, you still have to go back
and constantly sell your products.*+

Difference: Time, frustration, money

Time - If you have to constantly worry each month or every couple of
months on who you are going to get your sales from each month to meet
your minimum requirements why don't you just go get a sales job. If
you are like me look for an opportunity that allows you help someone
with a service they are already using - however it allows you to make
true residuals month-to-month without actually asking that customer to
purchase again.

Frustration - when it comes down to it people really do not care
where they get their products from unless they are a wellness freak or
they really-really love you. Other than that you could have the magic
pill from Thailand that will stop cancer and people will still be going
through chemo and cancer treatment.

Money - when you don't have to go back to the same customers over
and over again to ask them if they are going to purchase you can spend
more time on aquiring new customers. This is where the law of
exponensial expansion really kicks into high gear when not only you are
doing this - but your team is as well.

I hope you enjoyed and this gives you a little insight of where you will make your next move.
