Always glad to see you back! If we haven't connected yet on Twitter or Facebook - be sure and add me when you get a chance :) Make it a good one!

I’m one of the moderating “Success Coaches” over on the Facebook Group called-

The Empowered Entrepreneurs Movement

Hop on over and mastermind with the awesome quality of people we’re attracting - love to have ‘ya :)

Thought I’d share a reply I just made on our discussion boards over there - the original post was made by one of our Mastermind members - John Stewart - great guy (love his motorcycle trip pics!) and is totally on the Empowered / Attraction marketing path - you should go add him.

Here’s the part of his post that spoke to me … and below that, you’ll get a glimpse of how I like to leverage my personal attraction marketing efforts - if you want the same set up for yourself - just holler- k?

Appreciate you!

Andrea


Hi John -

You are SO clear on this stuff! You should post this to your blog so we can RT you - grins :)

This is the part of this that I think people have the most challenge with:

“Try using the new business model, become a trusted friend to your prospects be the one that delivers the solution to your prospects in a way that is better than anyone else. Be there to help, teach, train, and give real knowledge and value that will make their lives better.”

And I think the challenge comes for a couple of reasons - I know it’s been a learning curve for me anyway …

  1. people have to be genuine in their interest in others and WIIFM (what’s in it for me) has to be overridden  … ’cause the payoff comes later - and I mean BIG time (;-))
  2. there has to be an “ask for the sale” built into your marketing funnel (aka. the mastermind system in our case) so that it CAN be attraction marketing … without this piece of the puzzle in place everyone DOES go broke being ‘helpful’ (ask me how I know - lol)
  3. I think many people just don’t know what they know that would be useful/valuable to others. Everyone has value to offer someone else - we get that way just by living and breathing everyday — the skill to learn is to listen and to share freely of your own experiences - people just want to connect and feel appreciated and truly there is big $ in that and that you can be genuine in the process? That’s what makes this whole approach such a beautiful thing …

Good stuff!

Hey, I think I’ll go leverage this on my blog too (which is set up to to post to twitter and my notes/profile here too) - neat huh?

Andrea
