Maximizing your Marketing in Just a Few Minutes
How often have you been asked "what do you do?" or "what does your business do?" Want to know how to make a memorable impression when you answer this question?
Yes - then perfect your "elevator pitch". This is so called because you should be able to describe what you business does in the few minutes that you spend in an elevator talking to your fellow travelers.
Here's the recipe for your elevator pitch:
• It should last about 3 sentences max! (don't want to bore people)
• It should explain what you or your company does
• There should be a small sales pitch in there!
• There should be a "hook" in there that begs for more questions.
Here's ours....
"I'm the Biz Guru, I own two companies, one in the USA and one in the UK. We specialize in business strategy consultancy, training and book writing."
Note the hook - I always get asked about the two companies and because I am a Brit - about the UK and my accent!
Try yours out with your friends. Hint if they fall asleep you need to revise it.

Kevin's Case Study #11 - A New Forum Category?
- Hi Everyone,
2009 is a new year and I'd like to create a new forum category to jazz things up! In the past, there's been some interest voiced about adding a "Social Media Marketing", "Online Marketing", "Internet Marketing" or "Online Promotion" category.
I'll implement [u:1g2tv6tf]ONE[/u:1g2tv6tf] of those new categories, but can someone first tell me what the difference would be between the existing "Marketing" section and one of those new options mentioned above?

I am noticing that many of the posts in the Sales/Marketing section deal with online marketing, SEM and and SEO and Affiliates. I was wondering if it might be a good idea to separate that section into two; 1) Online Sales and Marketing; 2) Traditional Sales and Marketing
