4 Steps to Higher Profits This Year

By Charlie Cook   |   January 20, 2009

I just got off the phone with one of my clients, Carlos from Chile.

Here’s what he said: “Charlie I followed your suggestions for writing and sending out my newsletter to generate new business. I couldn’t believe what happened next. We got 25 responses and set up 11 prospect meetings in 2 days since the email went out. I couldn’t believe it.”

The first step to increasing your profits in the next 12 months is to find out how to:

* Attract more prospects,
* Clarify the value of your products and services,
* Gain your prospects’ confidence,
* Motivate your prospects to buy more and buy today.

As Carlos discovered, it’s not that hard to position yourself for windfall profits in your business. The key is knowing what works and taking action. Carlos had been thinking of sending out a newsletter for over a year but didn’t know what to say in it that would make his prospects open it, read it and contact him.

Like Carlos did you can easily discover the answer and within weeks be eating your competition’s lunch. Enjoy.

To make it easier for you, I’ve created the lowest cost way to access the strategies you need to maximize your profits in less time this year. I’m in the process of putting together a Mastermind VIP group to show you exactly what works and how to do it.

Already some of you emailed to find out more. When Jessica told me how many email requests we’d received – I couldn’t believe it.

This shows me you really are serious about beating the gloomy sounding economy this year.

I was thinking that maybe 30-40 people might be interested but I was wrong!

So far over 274 people have contacted me asking to get on the VIP list for an Insider’s Marketing Mastermind program. All this within mere days of just mentioning the idea. And the requests for more info just keep coming.

I’m still working out the details but given your enthusiasm and interest I’m committed to making this work for those of you.

Given the numbers of people who are interested, it looks like we’re looking at an application process. While I could just go ahead and set up multiple groups to cover the demand, I made a decision to only open up one this quarter, to make sure the people that make it in get what they need.

But after reviewing some of your requests it seems pretty obvious you’d be interested. So if you want me to get this thing off the drawing board – here’s what I want you to do.

If you’re really serious about being part of an elite Mastermind group with private access to me and you haven’t done so yet,

But that’s not all. If you head over to this page you’ll get more valuable information to help you today >>

The #1 Small Business Marketing Tip for Outrageous Profits

By Charlie Cook   |   January 5, 2009

How can I generate more leads, more sales and make more money?

That’s the one marketing tip I hear struggling entrepreneurs and small business owners asking for. Do you know the answer?

The answer is simple. Give your prospects a chance to test out your expertise, your products and your services. This is the fastest way to demonstrate the value you offer and to develop the trust you need from a prospect to make a sale.

Say you’re in the market for a new car (lucky you, in this economic climate!). You walk into a car showroom – in my case it’d be the Audi dealer’s – and what do you want to do before you make any decision to buy?

You want to take at least one car out for a test drive, see how it handles, check out the leather seats to see how comfortable they are and even test the GPS, and the other bells and whistles.

Now imagine that when you walked into the showroom, the sales associate told you you couldn’t touch the car, get in it or take it for a test drive; all you could do was look at it.

What would you do? You’d leave and go find a dealer that had their head screwed on right. It’s hard to imagine a salesperson that wouldn’t let you test out a product or service.

Yet that’s what most business owners do: they try to sell their products and services without giving prospects a free test.

Too often business owners worry so much about their profits they they lose sight of the face that profits come when their prospects experience the benefits of their product or service. Big mistake!

In fact, the more you give away to prospects the more money you’ll make in return.

Now I’m not talking about giving away your products. I’m talking about giving your prospects a taste of your knowledge or your services so they can get to know you and trust you.

For example, you’re getting this newsletter because I gave you a free ebook. And it wasn’t something I just threw together; it represents some of my best ideas. This simple giving strategy has prompted over 40,000 people to add their names to my mailing list.

You may use an initial free offer simply to build your database of prospects like I do, but at some point you’re going to want to prompt your prospects to buy. What kind of offer will motivate people to buy?

Again, give away something for free or for practically free:

* Oreck successfully sold one of it’s vacuums by offering it free for the first 30 days along witha $130 iron as a gift.

* Time magazine’s online offer is: “Subscribe to TIME! Plus, get 6 months more for 1 cent!”

* Cingular offers “Free Camera Phones” when you sign up for a 2 year agreement. Other phone services “give away” free minutes when you sign up.

* Send people a check. AT&T mailed out 200 million checks to former customers and 10 million became clients again. By cashing the check, prospects agreed to sign on with AT&T.

* A local Stamford, Connecticut investment adviser gave away a free workshop and grew their assets by $20 million.

* Google gives away its top quality search services in order to attract viewers for the unobtrusive ad space they sell.

* Charles Schwab gives away access to its select list of mutual funds.

* As a skier, this is one of my favorite offers; Andes Tower, a small ski area in Kensington, Minnesota, started a free after-school program three evenings a week that included transportation to the hill, equipment and lift tickets for 4th, 5th, and 6th graders. In other words, they gave away everything and then some. The benefit? Their ski shop immediately sold out of every piece of junior equipment (for 7th-12th
graders).

The long term benefit is that they’re grooming a generation of kids who love skiing. They’ll be back with their parents to buy more gear as they grow. And who knows? Down the road they may be back with children of their own.

Want to supercharge your small business marketing and your profits?

The more you give away in terms of perceived value, the more money you’ll make.

Give something away that your prospects need. Give away ideas your prospects can use and help them understand when and how to use your products and services. It’s the best-kept secret to success.

This year I gave away more free ebooks than every before. The result? 2008 has been my most
successful ever.

Give to Get! That’s the core marketing tip. Put it into practice and you’ll see your profits soar, too.

What is your Give to Get strategy?

How To Use Post Cards To Get Phone Calls & Referrals

By Jeffrey Dobkin   |   January 5, 2009

I don’t have a lot of space so I’ll get right to the point: A personal letter is the best marketing tool for personal communication to your personal clients, even when sent to all 100,000 of them. referral marketingWhat? You don’t have 100,000 clients. Me neither. Sigh…

In a letter you have time and space to sell sell sell. You can explain benefits, features; show facts and figures. A consultative sell?

No problem in a letter: you can explain what you’re selling, why you’re selling it, then why your customers absolutely need it because it will be so good for them and best for their family, just initial here and here and send back, and we’ll take care of the rest. Read More »



A Most Unusual & Odd Request from Charlie

By Charlie Cook   |   December 17, 2008

What’s one of the biggest challenges in small business marketing?

It’s getting your prospect’s attention. If they don’t know you exist, much less know how you can help them, you’re going to have a tough time closing sales and making more money.

How do you get your prospects’ attention when they’re overwhelmed by advertising messages and have conditioned themselves to tune them out?

Use INTERRUPTION marketing!

Break into your prospects’ train of thought. Get them to switch from whatever they were working on or pondering to thinking about how much you could help them. Interruption Marketing is the conversation starter.

What is interruption marketing?

It’s the headline, the bold graphic, the creative layout, the audio, etc you use to grab your prospects’ attention so you can have a conversation with them.

“A Most Unusual & Odd request from Charlie”

In order to get you to open this post, I used a headline to pique your curiosity. If you want your prospects and clients to open your emails, you need to do the same. Use a subject line that makes them stop what they are doing and open your email.

Want to see another example of Interruption Marketing?
See this >>

The Purpose
The purpose of interruption marketing is to distract your prospect from what they were thinking and then to capitalize on the opportunity by telling them what to do next. And you’ve only got a second to move them from a second of attention to having a conversation, even if its a virtual one, similar to what you and I are doing now.

What’s the risk of using Interruption Marketing?
You can easily go too far and turn off some of your prospects.

What’s the even greater risk of not using Interruption Marketing?
No one pays attention to your marketing and you go out of business.

Before you use Interruption Marketing, understand the difference between giving your prospects’ a choice and just plain annoying them. One leads to a possible sale, the other to a lost customer.

You want your interruption to leave your prospect feeling positive about your products and services. Sales calls during dinner and the online ads that jump up and cover your emails are not positive experiences.

Want to know what one of the best ways to get peoples’ attention is?

Ask a QUESTION.

At the top of the homepage for MarketingForSuccess there’s a pertinent question in large, bold type at the top of the page. Why? Because when people read a question, their natural inclination is to stop what they are doing and try and answer it.

Isn’t that what you do?

But… I can hear my wife saying it and maybe you’re thinking it, too, “Isn’t interruption marketing ugly, often garish and hard sell?”

You’re right! A lot of interruption marketing is done in poor taste and doesn’t work. But when it’s done well, it’s original, clever and it keeps your attention.

If your marketing is plain vanilla, no one will ever read it. If it’s garish or simply badly done, it won’t be taken seriously. Depending on your target market, smack dab in the middle is where the money is.

What’s my Most Unusual & Odd Request?
Take a look at this page and tell me now what you think >>
I bet you can’t look at the image at the top of the page without stopping to watch the dancing image. It gets your attention. Is it too much or on target?

My wife thinks it’s totally inane and annoying. A graphic designer, she hates animated kitschy things like this. And while I wouldn’t call it great art nor would I use this approach on every sales page, it’s been a huge sales success.

What do you think >>

If you already saw this page and joined my Monthly Marketing Mentoring Program, you’ll be having a great Christmas. You’ll be opening up my gift box with the huge bonus I sent you. And each month you’ll be hearing from the most successful marketers and sales people in the country, including people like Denny Hutch.

Denny is a veteran of direct marketing and can explain to you better than almost anyone exactly how to use interruption marketing to increase your sales and profits.

You haven’t joined YET?

I’ve only set aside 35 new member bundles for this holiday snow special. , Each is worth over $1,024, and I’m giving them away for just $39.95.

You need to take action right away>>

4 More Low-Cost Marketing Tactics To Maximize Small Business Sales!

By Charlie Cook   |   December 3, 2008

Just one month left and we’re in the midst of the holiday shopping season. Are you on track to make your revenue goals? Should you just sit back and wait for 2009 so you can get a fresh start?

Regardless of how you did the rest of the year, whether you’re on track to make 2008 your best year ever or you’re sales stagnated, don’t quit yet. December can still be your best month.

The days are counting down, with less than 30 left in the year. NOW is the perfect time to apply these last-minute holiday marketing strategies to end the year on a high note.

Time is running out… don’t procrastinate, take action today!

You’ve got just a few weeks left to achieve your small business marketing goals for this year, don’t let them slide by and wish later you’d done something to maximize your profits.

Apply these 4 low-cost and no-cost small business marketing strategies TODAY!

Strategy #1: “Target Your Sales Copy to What’s On People’s Minds”

Most people are thinking about giving and wondering two things:

* What would make a great gift for my son or daughter,
* What would make a great gift for my spouse,
* What would make a great gift for my father or mother in-law.

… and they’re wondering

* What should I put on my own holiday list,
* What gift should I give myself this year, Yes, a lot of people, while out buying gifts for others, buy gifts for themselves too!

You get the idea. Don’t assume people know what they want to buy. I’m often at a total loss myself as to what to buy for my 22 year-old son. So whether you sell to businesses or direct to consumers, help them out with your sales copy by targeting the questions that are on your customers’ minds at this time of year.

Strategy #2: “Use the End of The Year To Up-Sell & Cross-Sell Clients”

December 31st marks the end of 2008 and while it’s just a day on the calendar, it has a strong emotional effect on your prospect’s and clients. People see it as a clear ending and Jan 1st as a new beginning.

At the end of December people tend to reflect a little bit on their past performance and on their aspirations for the coming year. This is the perfect time to tap into their psyche and get clients to review their needs, what worked and didn’t work, and what they’d like to do better next year.

Whether you sell consulting services, or flat screen TVS, the end of the year is an ideal time to cross-sell and up-sell your products and services.

Strategy #3: “Strengthen Your Relationships with Prospects and Clients”

Your primary small business competitive advantage is the number and strength of your relationships with prospects and clients. Use this time to show your appreciation to them. How?

* Tell them. Thank them for their business and loyalty. Gifts are nice but ultimately it’s the thought that counts. Make sure to let them know you value their business and enjoy working with them.

Unless you’re the only source for a product or service clients can always find someone else to buy from. The best way to prevent this is to maintain a strong relationship and this starts with saying thank you.

* Send your most valued clients a gift, but not just any gift. For years I had an investment advisor who each Christmas sent me something from Tiffany’s that cost hundreds of dollars.  As you may know by now, I’m not a Tiffany’s kind of guy and ended up returning almost every one of these to the store.

The key is to give something that your client would appreciate. It’s hard to lose with food. In my case I would have been much more impressed if my investment advisor had sent me something that was 25% as less expensive like a lift ticket or ski lesson at my favorite ski resort.

Strategy #4: “Offer Special Deals For A Limited Time Only”

The end of the year is fast approaching and everyone likes a deal. The problem is we all tend to procrastinate. What’s the solution?

You have the products and services prospects want. Now all you need to do is motivate them to buy.

Combine special offers with limited time availability. If you have a website you can put a countdown timer on your offer sales page to increase the sense of urgency.

Just use the links below to find code you can easily add to your web pages and include your countdown clock. There are tons out there. Here are three.

http://www.christmasbuzz.com/countdown/
(the site I grabbed my Santa countdown from)

http://www.countdownclockcodes.com/christmas-countdown-clocks/

http://www.7is7.com/otto/countdclock.html

That’s it!

Four easy, no-cost ways to increase your end-of-the-year sales and beat, or at least get closer, to your goals for the year.

And don’t forget the countdown clock is ticking for YOU too. If you’re at all interested in getting into the Monthly Marketing Mentoring Program for 20% off the first month, you can… if you take action today!

Go ahead and “play Santa” and buy yourself access to this wealth-building program, but act fast if you want in. There are were only 15 holiday specials left last time I looked. And whether these sell out or not, this offer ends on December 20th.

35 Profit Building Giveaways

By Charlie Cook   |   December 1, 2008

This has been a tough year for many small business owners, but I’m feeling great. Why? There are 3 reasons. I’ve had my best year ever, with sales growing each month right through November. Second, my clients are experiencing similar results. Last but not least, it’s snowing in Vermont.

Now, don’t get me wrong. I love my work and work comes first, but skiing is my second passion. The mountain where I ski has already gotten 35 inches of snow. I’m stoked and feeling generous.

So generous that I’ve decided to help you put your marketing and your profits on track with my Monthly Marketing Mentoring Program. To get you started, I’m going to give away 35 new member bundles at 20% off.

That’s one new member bundle for each inch of snow that has fallen so far this ski season at Sugarbush in Vermont, where I’ll be found carving turns any day now.

I’ve only set aside 35 new member bundles, each worth over $1,024, for this holiday snow special and I’m giving them away for just $39.95. But to get one, you need to take action right away.>>

3 Steps To Attracting Buyers In This Economy

By Charlie Cook   |   November 20, 2008

What’s happened to your sales this past year? Are sales increasing or are you struggling to find buyers?

The temperatures have turned cold here in New England, and there have already been two snowfalls in the mountains. In Vermont, where I ski, the bears have hunkered down for the winter.

Does it look like your buyers are hibernating, too?
Are you thinking of pulling back on your marketing because of it?

Your answer to the first question may be “Yes”, but your answer to the second should be “No.” While your prospects may be more reluctant to make a purchase, there are still plenty of buyers out there. Cutting back on your marketing is a surefire way to lose even more sales and money.

Want to make money this year instead?

Take these three steps to keep your business on track and make next year your most profitable:

1. Stay Confident
The biggest mistake you can make is to lose confidence in your products and your services. Start to doubt your unique competitive advantage and your ability to improve your marketing, and you’ve lost the race before the start. Like a bear smells fear, your customers will notice your hesitancy and they’ll buy from a competitor who appears confident of success. They’ll steer clear of you and you’ll lose even more business.

Unless you compete directly with huge corporations on the scale of a Microsoft, there are plenty of people buying. What you need to do is attract more of them.

Ready to find out how to attract more clients? Start here >>

2. Focus On Your Core Strengths
Obviously, we’re doing business in a very different economic climate than we were a few years or even a few months ago. The marketing strategies that may have helped you stay afloat in the past could easily sink your business this year.

To succeed in this economy, your small business needs to be more focused and specialized. Companies like Circuit City that sold a bit of everything are closing their doors, but I see this happening to small businesses as well. Small companies that try to provide too many products or services are struggling. And for good reason; prospects can’t figure out what they excel at.

On the other hand, businesses that target a specific service or product are holding their own. I’m hearing that business is holding steady and, in some cases, growing from a whole host of people including: voice and data technology providers, and even from some real estate developers. Online, many niche services and products are growing too, including online bookkeeping, online virtual assistants and niche information products.

Discover how to grow your business this year >>

One of my clients is an organization that has been in business for two years providing innovative treatment to people with alcohol problems. Using the website strategies I showed them, they had their best week ever last week. This is a surprise since I’d think the economic news would be driving people to drink instead of to a cure.

Over a decade ago management guru Tom Peters advised business leaders to “stick to your knitting.” Finding the thing you do best and sticking to it is still one of the keys to success. For example, while many banks are struggling because they took big risks with subprime mortgages, the First National Bank in Orwell, Vermont is thriving. They stuck to what they knew well, only providing loans to people who they were confident could pay them back. The result? They maintained a positive cash flow and now more customers are flocking to their doors. This year loans are up 22.6% and deposits up 7%.

Even in the abysmal real estate market there are success stories. Everest Development in Denver offered 135 luxury condos for sale at prices ranging from $500,000 to $2 million and sold 90% of the properties earlier this year. Of course location and amenities were key, but these people knew their market.

You, too, can succeed by focusing on your strengths. Discover how >>

3. Find Out How To Attract More Buyers
At the risk of being redundant, I’m going to say it once more. There are plenty of buyers out there. All you need to do is attract a few more.

The first step to increasing your profits in the next 12 months is to find out how to:

• Attract more prospects
• Clarify the value of your products and services.
• Gain prospects’ confidence.
• Motivate prospects to buy, and buy today.

To make it easier, I’ve created the lowest cost way to access the strategies you need to maximize your profits in less time this year. I’ve put together a monthly mentoring program to show you exactly what works and how to do it.

Interested in making more money this year? Find out how to do it >>

On average, most small businesses will see their profits decline this year. Your business doesn’t have to be one of them.

You’re more ambitious than the average business owner and smart enough to look for ways to take advantage of the situation. Small businesses with the best marketing win every time; be a winner in this economy by finding out what works.

Stay confident, focus on what you do best and find out the fastest ways to attract prospects and convert them to buyers, and you’ll maximize your profits this year.
