Jump start your business today.

1. Keep Adding Something New

Every time you add something new to your business you create an opportunity to get more sales. For example, something as simple as adding new information on your web site creates another selling opportunity when prospects and customers visit your site to see the new information.

2. Become a Valuable Resource

Look for ways you can be a resource for your prospects and customers. Supply them with free information. Help them do things faster, easier, less expensively. You get another opportunity to sell something every time they come back to you for help.

3. Separate Yourself from Your Competition

Find or create a reason for customers to do business with you instead of with someone else offering the same or similar products. For example, do you provide faster results, easier procedures, personal attention or a better guarantee?

4. Promote the End Result

Your customers don’t really want your product or service. They want the benefit produced by using it. For example, car buyers want convenient transportation with a certain image. Dental patients want healthy and good-looking teeth without suffering any pain. Make sure your web pages, sales letters and other sales messages are promoting the end result your customers want.

5. Anticipate Change

Change is the biggest challenge to your business success. The days are gone when a business could constantly grow by simply repeating what it did successfully in the past …or even recently. Expect change and prepare for it. Don’t wait until your income declines to take action.
