Your energy signature

Tuesday, June 29th, 2010
Every piece of marketing material you create has an “energy signature”, which refers to the emotions (positive or negative) that piece creates in the mind of the recipient. For example, if your business card is professionally-designed, made of heavy card stock, is colorful, has your photo on it, and presents a professional image, that would be a positive energy signature. If it’s made of flimsy paper and looks like it was printed on a cheap inkjet printer, that doesn’t make for a good impression, and would be a pretty negative energy signature.This principle applies to your brochures, website, blog, email signatures, voice mail message, the words that you write and speak, the demeanor that you exhibit when you meet someone in person, EVERYTHING you present to a customer or prospect.

Review your marketing materials and ask yourself what kind of impression they make. That impression is your “signature” – make sure it looks and feels good before you sign it!

Is less better than more?

Saturday, June 26th, 2010
Fewer words is better than more words.

E. B. White wrote in “Elements of Style”: “Vigorous writing is concise. A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should contain no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts.”

This applies to any written work, whether a brochure, a white paper, an article, a blog post or website content.

Don’t use TMW (Too Many Words)!

What are you living for?

Friday, June 25th, 2010

Another question to ask is, why does my business live? Do you have the answers? Who does your life or your business benefit? Why is it that so many people spend so much time worrying about after life or after their business closes?

Well, the fact is, there is an end to everything so just accept that and decide to live in the moment. You are here now so love it, feel it, be it. Your  business is here now so simply make space and allow it to thrive. Stay in the moments of life without concern for what is way out in the future. Now is the time, this is the place, we are the people.

Be the Hero!

There are three parties involved with a website, and only one of them is important

Monday, June 21st, 2010
There are three parties involved with a website, and only one of them is important.

The parties are:

  • the site owner
  • the site developer
  • the user (the person who views your site)

The user is the only one who matters. The focal point of all discussions and decisions must be the user. The end result of everyone’s efforts must be to see that the user’s needs are served.

Your needs get met by meeting the needs of your users.
