Virtual Business Ownership - - Marketing The Best You

When you think of the word “marketing”, most people automatically associate the term with a business, however, in this article it will be associated with you, the virtual business owner.

Now picture this, Zipgirl is attending a network gathering and someone walks up to her and says “Hi there, my name is ABC and I represent XYZ company” Zipgirl responds, pleased to meet you, my name is Zipgirl and I work from home. Well, ABC simply nodded and walked away. Would you have done the same as ABC? Did Zipgirl say enough to attract your attention or enough to make you want to stay and listen? I think we both agree in a resounding NO.

To often times when we are asked who we are and what we do, we short change ourselves by not marketing the best in ourselves. How can I do it better you ask? Below are some questions that will help you to identify your marketing strengths as well as your challenges:

- Can you describe your personality in just five words?
- Are you totally committed as well as passionate about what you do?
- Are you always optimistic about what you do in spite of the challenges you face?
- Are you happy doing what you do?
- What’s unique about your service or product?
- What type of energy do you release when you talk about your business? Do you leave people fascinated and wanting to learn more or bored and uninterested?
- When out promoting your business, what does your outward appearance say about you? Do you walk with your head down? Do stay cooped in the corner of the room or are you out in the crowd taking charge, meeting people with a smile, standing tall and bringing out the best in those you meet?

Next, I’ll share with you some tips on how to market the best in you:

- Always present a pleasant smile, whether on the telephone, in person, in email or even in a fax (SMILE)
- Do what you love (you’ll be more fulfilled)
- Dont try to be the jack-of-all-trades (you do everything and anything) rather, specialize (promote the one thing or area you do best)
- Be unique (original)
- Always be professional
- Always be yourself
- Always express a sense of passion in what it is you do
- Always explore ways to enhance yourself (personally, professionally, and/or spiritually)

As you can see, marketing the best you is more than just selling or promoting your business and it’s products or services. As a business owner, you are in most cases the business (when people meet you, they are immediately exposed to the quality of your service or product). In the virtual world however, people won’t necessarily meet you face-to-face but they too are exposed to the quality of your service or product. How? Through your website, telephone conversation, and/or via email responses.

In closing, remember this, first impressions are everlasting, so when given the opportunity always remember to market the best in You…

Now picture this, Zipgirl is attending a network gathering and someone walks up to her and says “Hi there, my name is ABC and I represent XYZ company” Zipgirl responds, pleased to meet you, my name is Zipgirl and I work from home. Well, ABC simply nodded and walked away. Would you have done the same as ABC? Did Zipgirl say enough to attract your attention or enough to make you want to stay and listen? I think we both agree in a resounding NO.

To often times when we are asked who we are and what we do, we short change ourselves by not marketing the best in ourselves. How can I do it better you ask? Below are some questions that will help you to identify your marketing strengths as well as your challenges:

- Can you describe your personality in just five words?
- Are you totally committed as well as passionate about what you do?
- Are you always optimistic about what you do in spite of the challenges you face?
- Are you happy doing what you do?
- What’s unique about your service or product?
- What type of energy do you release when you talk about your business? Do you leave people fascinated and wanting to learn more or bored and uninterested?
- When out promoting your business, what does your outward appearance say about you? Do you walk with your head down? Do stay cooped in the corner of the room or are you out in the crowd taking charge, meeting people with a smile, standing tall and bringing out the best in those you meet?

Next, I’ll share with you some tips on how to market the best in you:

- Always present a pleasant smile, whether on the telephone, in person, in email or even in a fax (SMILE)
- Do what you love (you’ll be more fulfilled)
- Dont try to be the jack-of-all-trades (you do everything and anything) rather, specialize (promote the one thing or area you do best)
- Be unique (original)
- Always be professional
- Always be yourself
- Always express a sense of passion in what it is you do
- Always explore ways to enhance yourself (personally, professionally, and/or spiritually)

As you can see, marketing the best you is more than just selling or promoting your business and it’s products or services. As a business owner, you are in most cases the business (when people meet you, they are immediately exposed to the quality of your service or product). In the virtual world however, people won’t necessarily meet you face-to-face but they too are exposed to the quality of your service or product. How? Through your website, telephone conversation, and/or via email responses.

In closing, remember this, first impressions are everlasting, so when given the opportunity always remember to market the best in You…

ABC’s of Real Estate Investing

We may all know what it takes to be successful in the real estate investing world and to build a low maintenance business that offers numerous passive income streams? but sometimes we need a little extra push in the right direction. I hope the ABC?s of Real Estate Investing gives you the push you need. Here?s a list of ?Action items? to help you in achieving your real estate investing goals!

A is for Apply what you learn

This is the fork in the road where either you choose success or failure. 98% of students spend tons of money investing in their education but never actually apply what they learn. Make sure you are a 2%er!

B is for Believe

The path to success starts with believing in yourself. If you don?t believe you can do something you won?t. Believe in yourself!

C is for Carefree

When things go wrong, do what you need to do to get them fixed, but don’t let your business problems leak into your personal life. Relax, everyone makes mistakes and things do occasionally go wrong in this world! Be a smart investor, but have a Carefree attitude!

D is for Diversify

Never rely on having one sole method or revenue stream! Things can change without notice and its always smart to diversify so that you have a backup!

E is for Education

Your education in this business is your foundation to success! I always say if you?re not growing, you?re dying. So continue to learn and grow! Your business will prosper because of it!

F is for Focus

Finish what you start. It?s easy to get distracted by the ?latest and greatest? program or method. Instead, choose and focus on one system and stick with it until you?re making a nice profit and then look at diversifying.

G is for Goals

Set them, review them and take pride in accomplishing them! Challenge yourself, but be realistic when setting your goals!

H is for Helpfulness

The golden rule is an oldie buy goodie! By helping others the favors will be returned. Share your experiences and be willing to listen to and learn from others. Helpfulness and sharing knowledge will speed up your success!

I is for Information

You cannot underestimate the power of solid and accurate information!

J is for Joint Ventures

You don’t always have to go it alone. Align yourself with others to do deals you may not be able to do on your own. Joint ventures allow you to draw on each others strengths and increase your power by working together. Joint ventures should be a win/win for all parties involved.

K is for K arma

Simply put? What comes around, goes around. If you always try to do good to others, it will indeed come back to you I some way, shape or fashion.

L is for L isten

Listen more than you talk. The learning process is never over. It is a continuous thing. You can learn a tremendous amount just by keeping your ears open sometimes!

M is for Make Offers

This is the key to your success and the lifeline of your business! You?ll never learn how to swim if you don?t jump into the water. Make offers. What an owner is asking for a property is not always what they are willing to accept.

N is for N etwork

Keep in contact with other real estate investors and people in the business. You?ll learn that many of these people will be a valuable resource to you at some point in the future. The real estate investing community is a very small one, believe it or not!

O is for Outsource

Learn to outsource or delegate tasks to others. You need to concentrate on the money-making activities and marketing of your business. Get others to take care of the other details. It will save your sanity and help you make more money quicker.

P is for Profits

Never give up. The profits you can generate in this business on one deal alone are worth every ounce of hard work! Wait until that first big paycheck-you will see what I mean!

Q is for Quit for the Day

Don’t work all day, every day. Set your hours you plan to work, stick to them and then quit for the day when the time comes. You’ll be more focused during the time you are working and you’ll enjoy your “off” time more too.

R is for Research

Do your homework! Research is critical to making sound financial decisions.

S is for Spend Money to Make

Money
It’s no lie, spending money to make money is much easier than trying to build a business on the cheap. Make wise investments in your business and the profits will come.

T is for Take Action!

I can?t say it enough-Just do it! There will never be a ?perfect? time or date to get started in this business! There is money to be made if you take action. You are missing out every day you put it off!

U is for Understand Your Markets

In order to succeed in any real estate market regardless of what phase of the economic cycle we are in, you must do your homework, due diligence and research. There is a reason all of the investors are spending their money and buying up properties as quick as they can in ?certain cites? at ?certain times?

V is for Value

Provide value to your customers. This doesn’t mean undercutting your competitors by offering the lowest price, because it’s tough to be profitable that way. Go the extra mile with customer service.

W is for Win Win Situation

This is one of the most valuable assets you have in your tool belt; knowing how to create win win situations in the deals that you do. If you can structure deals that make everyone money, you are not only making a profit, but setting the ground work for future deals.

X is for X-It Strategy

You want to make sure that your business can continue to run when you’re away… or that you could easily sell your business should you need to get out all together. The more organized and systematized your business is, the easier It is to do this. Plan your X ?it strategy now, so you’re ready when the time comes.

Y is for Yawn

If you’re tired and unproductive, walk away from the computer or phone for a bit. Adequate rest is important!

Z is for Zeal

Find something you love. Without enthusiasm, it can be tough to run a business and keep it going. Choose a niche in real estate that you love and will do with zeal!

To your success!
