Are your sales where you want them to be?
Will you be one of the few who achieves
sales or business success or one of the
many who have failed to change? Are you
tired of being told you are like everyone
else?
Then you may find my first book on sales
of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea
of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales
available at Amazon or at www.processspecialist.com/r
ed-jacket.htm. This book is a
reflection of my no-nonsense approach to
improving sales to overall business
results.
If you are truly committed to making
sustainable changes, then I can help you
secure a positive return on your
investment because I focus on executable
solutions not telling you the problems you
already know you have. From training to
corporate (group) coaching to executive
one on one coaching, my approach is to
assess, create awareness, build a goal
driven action plan and then execute.
The bottom line question is "Not do you or
your employees know it, but do you or they
want to do it?"

10 Deadly Home Party Plans Business
Mistakes
The Little Black Book Of Home Party Plans
Success Secrets
I was once a struggling home based
business owner, in the direct sales home
party industry. When I started I had zero
skills - no sales skills, no marketing
skills, no confidence, no direction, no
warm market, a shoestring budget that I
wasted instantaneously. I had no clue,
neither did my uplines.
I did what most other people do, jump from
company to company only to have the same
results! One day I took a long hard look
at the facts. The companies kept changing,
I kept experiencing failure and I blamed
everyone except me. It wasn't the
company, it wasn't the compensation plan
and people didn't suck. It was me!
I realized what most home party
consultants and direct sales
representatives do not realize; direct
selling is the business of marketing!
Regrettably, many of us who pursue this
industry have no idea how to market or
promote our home based business.
I quickly learned implement a system and

Free 3 minute video will show you how to
start an internet business with unlimited
earning potential. Visit me today at NetworkFi
sher.com if you want to learn more.
My name is David Beairsto and for
over 25 years I worked in the
telecommunications industry as a
technician. What once started out as a
well paying job slowly devolved into a job
that wasn't able to support my growing
family.
While searching for a
new job I turned my attention to online
business opportunities. It was my hope to
generate extra income to supplement the
paycheck that wasn't providing enough to
live on.
It was during this
process that I discovered a web page very
similar to the one you are now reading. My
goal that day was to acquire needed
information to promote and market my
online business endeavors. I ended up
finding not only what I was looking for,
but what every entrepreneur needs.
The system I found was a
comprehensive marketing program that would
allow anyone to market anything either
online or offline successfully. It went
far beyond answering my current marketing
questions. It literally solved the problem
of how I was going to provide for my
family like never before.
There
are no words to describe the emotion I
felt when realizing that the control over
my financial future was now in my hands.
Suffice to say I have never felt as
capable to fulfill my role as father and
husband as I do today.
This
opportunity doesn't simply involve
financial security for my family. My
business success also means the success of
other people, other families. While I help
others to succeed, my business thrives.
I look forward to delivering
the hope of a rewarding future to as many
people as I can.

Developing leaders to transform teams
major is my specialty. I began my career
as a family therapist and transferred this
skill to the workplace when I realized
that we bring the behaviors we learned in
our original organization, the family,
into our present work organization. The
key to leadership is understanding how
individuals form a system and how that
system impacts the bottom line. I have
worked globally and find that the core of
relationships is much the same whether in
California, China,or Chili. My book "Don't
Bring It to Work: Breaking the Family
Patterns that Limit Success" (Jossey Bass,

Six years old sounds a peculiar time to
start to legal career, but that's the
first memory I have of going to my Dad's
law firm located in the heart of legal
London. So, with law running in the
family, the natural choice at University
was a law degree. I also had a keen
interest in Sports Law and obtained a Post
Graduate Certificate in the subject from
Kings College London.
I came to New Zealand for a year, but like
a lot of people I quite liked the place,
and I'm still here practising law as a
self employed barrister and running three
businesses: Approachable Lawyer,
Sportscounsel and The Sports Risk
Management Group (the last two even allow
me to combine my passion for law with my
passion for sport).
So in my 11 or so years of practice I have
read numerous cases, helped many clients
out of the mire and set up a number of
businesses. That means not only am I a
lawyer with an expertise in employment and
sport, but I am also a businessman. This
gives me a good insight into a number of
problems my clients face. I also like to
pride myself on my approachability - But

where others don't. I make connections
that others haven't yet. I help people to
see them, and know how to best take
advantage of them.
My overarching talent is "bottom lining"
complex ideas, in a way that is
understandable and accessible to a variety
of audiences, internal and external to a
company. After all, if you have the
greatest idea/product/service ever, and
your employees or customers don't see the
relevance to them, it doesn't really
matter, does it?

Success in the 21st Century
Direct Marketing is the oldest form of
advertising around and has been making
money and selling products from the
beginning of time. In the beginning we had
the panhandler who sold snake oil and
elixirs as he traveled around in a covered
wagon or on horse back. The big
corporations took Direct Marketing new
heights with MLM (Multi Level Marketing)
but was tarnished with few ethical
guidelines to go by. As Network Marketing
made its entrance more ethical guidelines
were in place and the industry grew once
again. Then Internet marketing opened the
flood gates to millions of people starting
their on business and grabbing a piece of
the pie. The New term for this productive
advertising technique has been dubbed
Internetwork Marketing and is reaching new
heights. Learn the ins and outs of network

As a former Executive

have extensive experience in

the challenges faced
by sales professionals

market.
Having had

understand the stresses and
strains experienced by Sales
Executives and Managers.
I have total empathy with
Sales Executives striving to achieve
targets, Sales Managers struggling to
deliver consistent performance and Chief
Executives frustrated by
lacklustre growth.
I believe that the new paradigm of
managing is not telling or directing
employees, but guiding and enabling
answers from individuals.
Managers who wish to free
themselves from the time consuming aspect
of day-to-day management of process and
performance can adopt a
coaching style to help
their people to access their own
inner resources, to increase their
confidence and achieve their tasks
and targets.

Hello my name is Karen Parsons and I am
President and Founder of Successful
Solutions Life Coaching.
We are providers of Personal and Business
Transformation solutions; we teach our
Clients how to awaken to their Infinite
Potential for Greatness in Life and
Business!
Successful Solutions Life Coaching was
formed because of a deep concern I have.
Stress, unhappiness and lack of meaning in
the workplace has become an epidemic!
Organizations are paying a very high price
for this epidemic!
Statistics Canada tells us that
work-related stress directly affects
current and long-term productivity of
workers in terms of reduced work
activities, disability days, absenteeism
and turnover!
It is estimated that the replacement cost
of an entry-level employee is 30% of their
annual salary up to 400% of the annual
salary for a high-level employee!
Progressive companies know that providing
their employees with solutions for
reducing stress and finding meaning in
their work is no longer just a luxurious
option, but a necessity if they want to
improve Productivity and increase Employee
Retention!

James Gracey (Sales Expert) - Click Here To Read James's Articles
I started my selling career as a sales
assistant in my fathers' toy shop at the
age of 15. It was there that I was first
exposed to the relationship between
emotion, buying and selling. In my 25 year
sales career it has always struck me as
strange that the profession of selling had
no best practice process that governed
selling activity. All other professions
have disciplines and codes of conduct that
qualify individuals to practice that
profession. The daily activities of
salespeople though, tend to be
unstructured and opportunistic. In the
1990’s I started researching the
relationship between professional sales
activity and the emotional interaction
between buyer and seller. I then applied
the IT process control experience I have.
The result is a framework (PPSS
methodology) that brings together:
> A sales process (industry and product
agnostic) that manages the progress of
sales opportunities.
> Mapped to the process – Professional
sales behavior and activities.
> Models that will align selling skills of
the corporate sales force to business
process and corporate strategy.
I have also developed workshops and
training courses: Refer to www.open
