1. The Lifestyle of your choice…
In a job, you have to turn up at 9 (usually earlier) and can only leave at 5 (or later). In your own business, you set the schedule. Successful business coaches can arrange their work to suit them. You can work 3 days a week and take holidays when you want. It’s all up to you…
2. The rewards are yours to keep…
In a job, you usually get paid a fixed amount every year no matter how well you do. In a business it’s different, you get paid exactly what you deserve, because you earnt it…
3. The freedom of being an entrepreneur…
In a job, you have to fit your life around your work. Being a business owner is very different. You choose everything. Your Clients, your office and you hours are up to you. You are in control…

Are you participating in an EXPO? Here are some important and vital tips to make the most of your investment…it’s a heafty activity any way so learn this up…
1. Don’t:
Pass up the chance to visit other industry events before you exhibit for the first time. Make note of what exhibitors worked for you and what turned you off. What did you find to be effective? Can you incorporate those items into your own exhibit?
2. Do:
Make a list of goals and objectives for the show. This list should be very specific. Do you want to generate $X in new sales, start a certain number of new business relationships, or spread the word about a new service offering you’re introducing to the market?
3. Don’t:
Get sidetracked by what everyone else is doing – or by what people tell you ‘have’ to do at a tradeshow. You’re at the show to reinforce your expert identity and achieve your goals and objectives. Anything else is off-target.
5. Do:
Be open to creative and new ways of presenting your services. Tradeshow attendees see hundreds of exhibits in the course of one day. You need to be unique and engaging for your display to be memorable.
6. Don’t:
Be afraid to be enthusiastic about your services. If you’re genuinely jazzed up about what you do, attendees will sense that. Enthusiasm is contagious — and more importantly, it sells!
7. Do:
Learn the 80/20 rule and take it to heart. The best exhibitors are those who listen 80% of the time and talk 20%. Focusing on attendees’ wants and needs is a surefire route to success.
8. Don’t:
“Throw Up” on attendees. This very common practice occurs when nervous exhibitors can’t stop talking, and keep up a constant barrage of facts, figures, and sales spiel. Attendees are quickly turned off by this, and your chance to form a profitable new business relationship walks away.
9. Do:
Remember you’re on display. What you’re selling at a tradeshow is, primarily, first impressions. Be professional, well-dressed, and mannerly at all times. You never know who’s watching.
10. Don’t:
Eat, drink, or chat on your cell phone on the show floor. When you need refreshment or a break, leave your exhibit booth. Remember, the eyes of the public are on you at all times, so you’ll want to conduct yourself well.
11. Do:
Be realistic. Tradeshows are long events. You’re on the floor for anywhere from ten to twelve hours at a go, often several days in a row. This is a lot for any one person to do on their own, and most Nichepreneuers are solo operations. Ask for help. Recruit friends to work the show with you. If nothing else, they can spell you while you grab a quick bite to eat.
12. Don’t:
Forget! If you have friends help you at the tradeshow, it behooves you to provide them with some training. Make sure they understand what your services are, how you’re different from your peers, and what the marketing message is. Also, have a plan in place to cover what they should do when they run into a question they don’t know the answer to.
13. Do:
Ask qualifying questions. You want to know who you’re talking to, who they work for, and in what capacity. This will help you determine if the attendee is a prospective customer or not.
14. Don’t:
Be afraid to encourage people to move along if they’re not interested in your services. Some of the people who attend tradeshows are ‘tire-kickers’ — they like to discuss everything, but buy nothing. You don’t want to waste your time with them.
15. Do:
Take notes. Take time before the show to create a lead-card system, in which you’ll record pertinent information to facilitate post-show follow-up.
16. Don’t:
Depend on your memory — no matter how good you are, a few words scrawled on the back of a business card won’t be enough after the show’s over and you’ve met with literally hundreds of people.
17. Do:
Be polite and nice to everyone. The junior executive today can be a senior executive tomorrow.
18. Don’t:
Forget to read the Exhibitor’s Service manual. This is the thick packet of materials you received when you registered for the show. Inside, you’ll find everything you need to know about exhibiting at that particular show — and discover important deadlines for ordering services. Don’t miss those deadlines or you’ll pay more for everything!
19. Do:
Reach out to the media. Have a press kit available in the media room. Be open to interviews — reporters and freelancers often walk the floor looking for stories. If you have something truly newsworthy to announce, schedule a press conference at the show.
20. Don’t:
Forget to advertise your tradeshow participation. Make sure your target audience knows they can see you at the show, where you’ll be, and what they can expect when they visit you.
21. Do:
Follow Up! The most important part of any tradeshow takes place after you leave the building. You see that big pile of leads you’ve gathered? Send them all thank you notes for coming to see you — and follow up with them the most promising prospects quickly. You’ll be glad you did.
22. Don’t:
Hesitate to include hands-on, interactive demonstrations into your exhibit whenever possible. People love to participate. They love to try new things. Most of all, they love to have fun. If you can integrate fun into your exhibit, you’ll have more attendees than you know what to do with.
23. Do:
Use giveaway items that enhance your expert identity. You want items that your attendees will use regularly and reinforce their impression of you as the expert.
24. Don’t:
Get caught up in trendy giveaway items pushed by promotional salespeople. You want to stand out from the crowd, not merge with it.
25. Do:
Give your tradeshow participation a fair chance to work. Results may not be immediate. Rome wasn’t built in a day. But the business relationships you start at tradeshows today can steadily blossom into profitable partnerships tomorrow.

“Every business owner who signs-up for the complimentary coaching session WILL find new ways of increasing profits, getting control of their time and/or creating a business that can operate independently of the owner.

Almost every professional on the face of this earth needs to continuously update their skills…whether you’re a doctor, architect, lawyer, web developer or business owner, you should constantly be learning new skills and refining them.
So, why would your sales team be any different? Selling is a skill, a skill that can be learnt or acquired. For the most part, a person who is taught how to sell and the ‘science’ behind the buyer’s mentality, will achieve a better sales record than a person who acquires the skills of selling and adopts a hit and miss approach to the sales technique.
“225% increase in forward orders in just 7 months! Our company has worked with Graeme for the last seven months, during which time our forward orders have increased by 225%. Now, after just two months into the new year, our forward orders are already almost 70% of last year’s total, and we are revising our estimates upwards…again.”

Success is different for all of us… how we measure it, the strategies and actions we have to take to achieve it; it’s all different. Often we have a GREAT PLAN, but we never quite get to complete it. Usually when that happens, we revisit the PLAN when in fact we should be revisiting the barriers that prevented us from taking the actions we should have to successfully EXECUTE the plan.
The team from ActionCOACH invite you to join them on 19 September, 2009 to create your own personal 90 Day Plan:
ActionCOACH is pleased to invite you to this workshop, designed to help you and your business grow
Special guest on this great day is Jason Barrell. Jason played rugby in the NPC and Super 12 before a freak accident on the field resulted in a broken neck and 6 months in traction. When recovered, he joined the Police Force but a brain tumour was discovered, which lead to 9 hours of surgery and required him to re-learn everything, from walking to feeding himself. This inspiring speaker will tell you a story that is unforgettable and a story that will get you focused on what you need to do in your life and business to get the best out of it!
Remember to register early for this unique 90 Day Planning Workshop.
Please note that seats are strictly limited!
