· A Resolution to Resolutions - By
Julie Hartman, Creative Guru
|
|
|
What is it about
January looming in the distance that causes us to feel
obligated to make resolutions? Are we really that broken
and mixed up that we need to pour all of our short-comings
into a laundry list of to-do items that will eventually
fall underneath the stove only to gather dust? How many
nights have you been unable to sleep, mid-October, with
thoughts of unresolved, unachieved resolutions running
through your mind like ghosts in the night?
A
resolution list, if it is going to be encouraging, is about 'being', not
'doing'. For example, "In 2004, I resolve to be more proactive, or
you fill in the blank ." We'll expand on this one at greater length
in next month's newsletter. But for now, I propose that we create a new
type of list to jump-start 2004. It is the new millennium, so why not be
brave and create an "I like this about myself and vow to add one new
item each month" list. How much more empowered do you feel when
thinking about that kind of a list versus resolutions. I would much prefer
to see a list of qualities I admire in myself hanging on my refrigerator
rather than a list reminding me to keep my toilets cleaner and be nicer
to my in-laws.

· Fundamentals of Networking- By
Carlton SooHoo, Chief Possibility Officer
|
|
|
Eat and drink before you go so that you are not caught with
food or drink in your mouth, or the dreaded food particles in your teeth.
Maximize your time available to network. If you do have food in your
mouth, avoid spitting it at your conversation partner. Be sensitive when
speaking with someone who is eating and don't make them talk while they
are chewing. Better yet, network with people who are not actively
chewing.
If
another person walks up, do not ignore them, but invite them into the
discussion. If the person you are talking to is boring, this is a great
way to create a group of three and prepare for excusing yourself.

· ENewsletters 101- Creating
ENewsletters That Don't Get Deleted
|
|
|
It's common lore
in the sales industry that you need to "touch your
prospects" at least SEVEN times before they buy from
you. Electronic newsletters are one of the most easy and
effective ways to get your message to your clients, prospects,
networking contacts, and partners, many times on a consistent
basis.
Previously,
"professional looking" newsletters required mastery of complex
software combined with graphic design talent. This is no longer the case
with Constant ContactTM's powerful web-based newsletter system. In this live
demonstration seminar, bring your list of company events and I'll show
you how to create a very professional looking newsletter in a matter of
minutes. This seminar includes a 30-minute business consultation to get
your newsletter on its way.
