Attract the Business Relationships You Desire

Written by: Marcie Hunt

Article Overview: Do you seem to attract business with people who don’t have a clear vision of what they want, or who are negative in their approach? Some examples might be: We need sales, we’ve got to make our numbers this quarter. Or, the market right now is so bad, it’s really affecting our business. Or clients who say, “I’d love to, but I really can’t afford your services.” Let’s stop a minute. Are you attracting people and business that you want, or connecting with what you don’t want? Let’s see how you can enable situations, people and events that bring you the joy, success and the wealth that you deserve.

Attract the Business Relationships You Desire

First, let me relate a story that illustrates a lack of vision. A number of years ago, someone close to me was working for several months with a CEO whom he later discovered had an alcohol problem. This problem masked many others along the way.

One evening we had an intimate dinner with the CEO alone. I asked him the question, “John, what is the mission of your company, and what is your vision?” He seemed a little stunned, and never did answer the question. Instead, he talked about surviving, making it from day to day, and how hard it was to find additional funding for the company. He was focused on failure, with no plan or vision for his company.

I knew that anyone who worked from this space could only attract more survival situations, lack of wealth and difficulties in attracting funds.

Here is a simple definition of The Law of Attraction: Whatever you give your focused attention to, truly believe and feel deeply about will be attracted to you.

Let’s look at some keys that will help you to be on course with what you desire.

1. Ask yourself if you have any beliefs that are drawing situations or people to you that are negative in your business. For example, are you critical of others or do you judge yourself harshly? Then you will attract criticism from others.

Are you unclear about what you want? Then you will magnetize confused situations and sketchy results.

Have you experienced situations in the past where your success has been limited, or you find yourself stuck and unable to go higher? Be aware of this, and know that you are now free to choose and to create true success and joy. Nothing from your past can hinder you from moving toward your bliss-unless you allow it.

2. Clarify what you want. I’m not just talking about a new car or bigger house. I am talking about those deeper qualities such as freedom, prosperity in all areas of your life, love, happiness, creativity, adventure, cooperation with others and whatever qualities truly resonate with you.

Clarify what you love to do in your business. If you haven’t already done so-STOP. Take a deep breath, relax and close your eyes. Ask your heart what it wants. Forget about how much money you “need” or the bills you have to pay, or pressure from family or your boss. What do you want now? How do you see your life years from now? Do you want to work four days a week and travel around the world? Open up the doors and allow yourself to dream and to live the dream!

3. During this quiet time, set intentions to work with people who have a similar vision as you, who are highly successful working from the heart, and who have an appreciation for everyone and everything around them. Feel the joy, enthusiasm and inspiration as you envision your reality as if it has already happened. The Universe does not make a distinction between reality and what you imagine to be your reality. It’s all about energy. Dream it, feel it, focus on what you desire.

4. Take inspired action. If you have been used to taking action even though you aren’t seeing the results you want, allow the Universe to attract the situations you have intended. Notice little things that come your way, and don’t disregard them- as they are often steps along your path to greater success and happiness. Follow your intuition first. Then take inspired action. Forget motivated or forced action-choose to be inspired.


5. Allow good things to come in. This is the trickiest aspect. Most of us like control. Yet, we don’t always have all of the pieces to the puzzle. And we can only control ourselves-not others. Be in the moment, enjoy the process and TRUST that good things are coming your way.

When we use the Law of Attraction and ALLOW our intentions to be realized we are applying Faith and Trust.

You may find yourself back- tracking and becoming frustrated because nothing shows up tomorrow or a week from now. Or you might say, “I’ve been waiting and nothing is showing up.” You are probably closer than you realize, however you have just pressed the “pause” button. Guess what? Through the Law of Attraction, nothing will show up.

The good news is you can realign yourself and choose better feelings- such as hope, belief, expectation and reigniting joy when you can. Once you are aligned and in the flow again, you are in the positive attractor mode.

Last October, my husband and I put two tons of Cabernet grapes into barrels in Napa, where we now have our dream home. We knew that two years would pass before we start selling the actual wine.

We immediately created a vision board, or vision map, intending joy and prosperity in sharing and selling our wonderful wine! Just last weekend we invited a couple who are involved in business with an associate of Tom’s. We had never met them previously.

Tom barbequed hamburgers, and later we took a walk in the vineyard and talked about the whole process of grape growing and wine making. After tasting our neighbor’s wine, which is very similar to our current juice, Rick said, “Put me first on your list. I want at least two cases of your Cabernet!”

Start with the easy attractions. Attract your parking spot, or one new client this month. As you receive results, your trust and confidence will build. As you continue to practice these steps, you will be applying the Law of Attraction and receiving more of what you truly desire-at the deepest and most satisfying level.

Re: Success - I study success intently, and would like to share: Here's two excellent and nearly identical success-formulas from a couple of the world's masters. FIRST FORMULA: 1. Passionate Desire 2. Clear, Definite Purpose 3. Committed Decision 4. Take Action In Faith (Bonus Secret Sauce: 5. Repeat Consistently) I made a video about this, but am not allowed to link it yet. Google "Ryze Success Steps" for it. Oh, and this is Napoleon Hill's (Master Of Success Laws)'s Formula. SECOND FORMULA: 1. Passionate Desire 2. Understand It Is Already Done (Faith) 3. Relax & Allow It To Unfold (Go about your life calmly) This one is courtesy of Abraham-Hicks (inspiration for the movie The Secret). Hope that helps!
Advertisement that sales - Plan your marketing programme. It should include commitment to capital resources. If you run a small business, you aren't likely to have a generous enough advertising budget that will allow you to run costly branding or campaign ads. Every advertisement you run must convey to your prospect a solid offer and attractive reasons to act quickly, and result in increased sales and an enhanced image of your company. Good advertising always pays its own way through increased sales and profits, improved cost-effectiveness, reduced selling costs and shortened selling cycles. A useful formula that will help you increase the effectiveness of your advertising efforts is A-I-D-A, which stands for Attention, Interest, Desire and Action. When creating an advertisement, always remind yourself that it should: (1) capture your prospects' Attention, (2) arouse their Interest in your offer, (3) create their Desire for your product or service, and (4) provide a powerful spur to Action, that is, turn your prospect into buyers. Remember, bad advertising is an unproductive expense, and good advertising is an investment in future profits!
