1. Add a no-fee interactive game to your web site. You could
hire someone to create it. You want to make the game related
to the theme of your web site. In the case of our web site
-- the Abundance Center -- the theme, abundance, could be a
game on how to find abundance.

2. Everyone is training their employees to be good team
members and have lost sight that each of them are
individuals as well. The team will not work well unless
each individual is doing his or her job and then come
together. Not the reverse as so many trainers are trying to
sell you on.

Make sure each of your sales team members have individual
training as well, so that they can do their job well. It
reduces the time it takes for them to work as a team.

3. Make people feel like it is their idea to buy, they will
be less hesitant. Use language like, "You're making a smart
decision for buying our product" in your ads, in direct mail
material, in phone conversations -- everywhere.

4. Promote yourself, your products, and increase your
visibility by writing Internet articles, magazine articles,
ebooks, white papers, special reports, and booklets. You
also want to endorse products written by others when you
believe in a product or service.

In fact, an unknown freelance writer client of mine started
three years ago of writing book reviews on www.amazon.com.
She read a book, wrote the review, posted it, along with her
signature line. Her goal was to complete several a week.
Because of the bulk, she checked out most of the books from
the library. She created a following and began receiving
invitations to speak to groups all over the United States.

Send in regular feedback to your local papers. Speak up
whether it's positive or negative. Keep it clean, honest,
and not nasty or mean and it will most likely be printed in
the paper.

5. Show your prospects a group of testimonials from users of
your product. Divide them into groups for a particular
product or service speciality. They are easier to read and
increase credibility.

I was reading a brochure the other day that had five
testimonials listed and none of them had anything to do with
the service he was offering in the brochure. Most people
that are not interested will not notice but the prospects
that are will.

6. Maximize your advertising budget, in fact, I recommend
stop advertising unless it is paying for itself or better.
Most advertisers say you need to advertise 6 times before
seeing feedback. That is bull-malarkey.

If you are going to advertise at all, you need to make an
impact immediately otherwise your ad is not good enough. Go
ahead, shock readers. They actually like it and you need to
do it if you are going to stand out in today
