Comments(0) Ever wonder what B2B customers really want from you?
Here’s a list I got from Howard Stevens, the head of the HR Chally Group, a company that’s surveyed thousands of B2B buyers over the past decade.
It’s real food for thought:
Be personally accountable. Don’t pass the buck somebody else in your […]

Posted February 28, 2008 Comments(0) It has been a while since I have had a chance to update this blog - along with Dean Hunt I have been working on some new projects which we will be announcing quite soon. Visit BuzzProfits.com for updates.
Looking at the blog and my misc ramblings it struck me that I have never gave credit or praise to a man who has influenced me more than most in this current incarnation - a gentleman called Stuart Wilde.
I first came across Stuart in 1990 - when I read his book “The Trick To Money is Having Some” - perhaps the best book ever written about MONEY ENERGY and how to attract it into your life. It was also a time in my life when I had huge financial challenges following the “failure” of a business I had started.
Since then I have met with Stuart a number of times, been on workshops etc. I will be honest, sometimes, I don’t have a clue what Stuart is on about - and occasionally I go of wandering on my own (in the metaphysical sense) - but for whatever reason, I always come back to Stuart.
Stuart Wilde is definitely not everyone’s “cup of tea” - but for me, his wisdom and inspiration have at times been life changing.
Thank you Stuart
I found the video below on YouTube - the quality is not that great, but hopefully it gives you a flavor of Stuart Wilde.
In this video, Stuart talks about how so many of us only CONSUME and do not serve humanity.
Now if it was just about any other “New Age Type Guru” in the world - you might expect the next line to be about how we should all serve - but one of the things I really like about Stuart Wilde is how he is also cool about us enjoying ourselves and consuming - so he just goes on to say it is so much better to BOTH Serve and Consume.
I am very comfortable with that - and indeed now, as I get a little bit older I see my role increasingly as someone who Serves.
I hope you enjoy the video - Stuart’s website is at StuartWilde.com

I believe that the unfailing popularity of such concepts reveals a profound truth about B2B […]

Posted February 27, 2008 Comments(0) There are a few really profound truths about selling. Some are proverbial, like “the customer is always right.” Others are experiential, like “it’s easier to sell to somebody who like you.” But there are also some deep truths about selling that aren’t so well known, and I think I just discovered one […]

Posted February 27, 2008 Comments(0) If you are among those seeking to begin blogging for profit you are not alone. It doesn’t take all that much special know-how to succeed in the blogging for profit. You simply have to be willing to consistently put out the effort to learn, understand, and apply blogging technology to your pursuit.
If it were any easier, most people would be blogging for profit. However, most of those who attempt to blog for profit fail because they do not do their due diligence in planning out their blogs and they abandon their blogs when they do not see instant results to their blogging efforts. This usually stems from people having unrealistic expectations about how easy blogging for profit should be. Basically, blogging for profit comes down to whether or not you really want it. Do you have what it takes to make a high-quality blogging plan and stick to it when readership is low?
The fact is, blogging for profit is contingent on establishing a large, consistent readership base. Advertisers are not going to pay you money if you are not sending them customers. So your blog has to have something to offer the readers that is motivating enough for them to visit your blog. Being different is not longer all that is necessary to make a blog successful. There are so many “different” blogs out there that “different” has become the “same old thing” to jaded blog readers. Blogging for profit is about effective marketing.
Many fail at blogging for profit because they do not take a balanced approach to blogging and marketing. Many spend too much time marketing a blog and not enough time adding interesting posts to the blog. Others, spend far too much time in their own little blog posting worlds to take note of whether anyone is reading their blogs. Both blogging regularly and following a marketing plan are necessary for most new blogs to become profitable. Concentrate on balancing the two aspects of your blog. If you can learn how to both make interesting blog posts on a regular basis and follow a marketing plan for pulling in new blog readers, you will be on your way toward blogging for profit.
All along your path you need to keep in mind that even with a well-written blog and a solid marketing plan, it takes time to build subscription based businesses. You may not think of blogging for profit as a subscription based business, but in a sense it is. Your readers have to be inspired to invest their time into visiting your blog regularly in order for you to succeed. Until you have a large readership base taking the time to read your blog regularly, you have to be persistent. Don’t let slow times stop you from following your blogging for profit plan.
Everybody can blog but not every blogger makes money! If you are serious about wanting to make money blogging, then make sure you pick up the essential guide at http://www.blogforprofits.info and find out how you can get set up your blog correctly and start blogging for profits from the very first day.
