    Set the Rules to Win the Game of Business
    To win any game, you must know the rules. Then, you must play by those rules all while improving your skill-set and performance within those boundaries. This is true for every game – sports or otherwise -- we play. In fact, rules are in effect even if we don’t know them – and the consequences can be swift and harsh if we break them.Not so true in the “game” of business.Business is the only game in life where YOU can set the

    The 9 Golden Rules to Successful Sales
    1. Put yourself in your client’s shoes Understanding as much about your clients perspective is vital in developing rapport. Growing a strong & positive relationship where you focus on your clients needs, problems, challenges & desires will ultimately lead to the successful matching of your products or services…and for the best possible motives...THE WELFARE OF YOUR CLIENT. Be sure to use ‘YOU’ language – this is where you talk about
    David Thorp, Head of Insights at the Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM) noted,

    "Marketers should be at the forefront of this change as the key communicators of the brand and organisational values. In the future, marketing will be as much about changing attitudes and behaviours as it is about increasing market share".

    And, of course, there is a conflict in sustainability, which I’ll talk about in a minute. First let’s look at how sustainability is being pushed by our industry.

    The GreenAwards

    The 2006 GreenAwards celebrated and rewarded marketing that communicates sustainability through one of these categories:

    • Press advertisement
    • TV advertisement
    • Radio advertisement
    • Outdoor advertisement
    • Online advertisement
    • Direct mail B2C and B2B
    • PR
    • Packaging design
    They do have more award categories but it’s clear that, other than for packaging design, the award categories are rewarding the message and the way the message is presented, rather than encouraging marketers themselves to use more sustainable ways of communicating their message.

    The Direct Marketing Association (DMA) The Direct Marketing Association (DMA) has thoughtfully produced an ebook called "Producer Responsibility for Direct Mail and Promotions" and is available for download from their web site.

    In addition the DMA has formed a relationship with PlanetArk.org, co-founded by tennis player Pat Cash and partnered with Reuters. PlanetArk is aimed at increasing the world’s environmental awareness and activity. The relationship with the DMA is to reduce the direct mail sent to landfill in the UK.

    Millionaire Mind - Win the Lottery - Luck OR Law of Attraction?
    It is time to stop being so serious and have some fun with the universal Law of Attraction, also known as the Law of Belief.In simple words, this Law states that "you get exactly what you believe", "it is done unto you as you believe", "be it done unto you according to your faith", "your deeply held beliefs are materializing your reality"."you materialize on all planes the subconscious beliefs held in your subconscious mind".ll in the UK.

    The Conflict In Sustainability In The Daily Mail in August 2006 an article explained about a postman called Roger Annies who popped a leaflet through his residents letterboxes explaining how they could sign-up with the mailing preference service to avoid "junk mail."

    Unfortunately, whilst at least 70 of his customers sent in a request to stop direct mail, his bosses in The Royal Mail were not impressed and suspended him.

    The Royal Mail, and any other postal service, has a vested interest in delivering as much mail as their infrastructure can handle. Otherwise they’re not maximising their revenues.

    And this example really highlights the ambiguity of sustainability within marketing.

    On the one hand institutions, such as the DMA, are able to suggest grand targets for improving sustainability in marketing. In this case direct mail. And on the other hand companies that are earning revenue from unwanted mail have a profit motive in allowing the status quo to remain.

    A book that has been recommended on this subject is Sustainable Marketing: Managerial-ecological Issues.

    I will discuss marketing and business areas where sustainability is a problem and what you can do about it in later articles.
