3 Secrets Your Competitors Won’t Dare Share About How to Win, Woo and Win Over Your Ideal Customers
Some people keep secrets. Unless it’s an embarrassing or shameful secret like Tiger Woods had at the last of 2009, why wouldn’t we let some secrets be shared? There really aren’t any secrets at all, just some secrecy. With so many secrets touted in Internet marketing, here are the three more common ones for your consideration.
There are no secrets better kept than the secrets everybody guesses. George Bernard Shaw
Niche or target. Do you remember the game of musical chairs? One less chair than children, or maybe adults playing, are put in a circle. As soon as the music plays, everyone moves in a line around the chairs until the music stops. At that point, everyone sits down in a chair nearest them and the player who doesn’t have a seat is out. So is one more chair. When you know specifically who your target subscribers are, that chair you want to land near in musical chairs, it’s so much easier to attract them. Whether you have a blog, an ezine, or are on social media, because you speak a clear language to your audience, have an eye on the chair, and then you are more likely to have your message be heard by them. You meet their needs and they hear you. There’s no need to play musical chairs.
A real secret is something which only one person knows. Idries Shah
Establish JVs. There are many species of fireflies. When I was a kid we would catch the lightning bug variety which light up like a light bulb. Every evening they would blink their lights. If you didn’t catch them they would fly up toward the sky and be even more visible. Some of them blink in unison and can be seen much better as a group. Collaborative efforts are like this. They come in all forms from getting space in someone’s ezine with your article to putting a telesummit together. Working together has all sorts of economies of scale, leverage, so that each person’s light can shine brighter.
To know that one has a secret is to know half the secret itself. Henry Ward Beecher
Ask them. In marketing and sales you get to a point where you have to ask people to do something. Whether it’s an order now request, a blog post for someone to read or a link you want someone to follow, there is what is called a call to action. Instead of being frightened off to make your request, think of it as a request to a neighbor. You see a neighbor in a grocery store, you both say, “Let’s get together for lunch.” Then one of you makes this happen by picking up the telephone to make the date. Asking your subscribers what you want them to do is as simply, not always easy, as that.
“Secrets are things we give to others to keep for us.” Elbert Hubbard You now have three secrets but don’t keep them to yourself – use them and win over more people in your own business marketing. Get clear on your target niche. Start engaging in conversation with others who would be someone else or others your could leverage your talents with. Then in a neighborly fashion, go to the natural step of asking people what you want.
