Premium Luxury Unique Business Cards

Business cards are very important marketing tools and any serious business should consider creating the most suitable ones for the business. When it comes to the cards, a professional look is what matters most. The best cards are those that are attractive enough to the eyes without necessarily being overly done especially with included text and graphics. But to make luxury premium business cards that are unique, you need to think beyond the name and logo to display. There are so many paper options and printing options you can think along to come up with the most professional and luxury business cards. Below are helpful tips that will make it possible for you to create unique, premium ones.

Tip 1 Choose the best paper stock

The quality usually will depend on the paper stock that you select. Some of the most suitable finishes include silk laminated, suede velvet laminates, gloss or matte laminated and you can also go for uncoated. Each of the paper options comes with pros and cons and it would be very important to consider them before making the final decision for the cards. You should also think about paper thickness in relation to the final card you want.

Tip 2 Consider embossing effect

One of the best ways of making your business cards stand out is by considering embossing for given texts and graphics. Embossing simply produces raised effect on selected areas of the card. A raised and recessed die is used to achieve this effect giving a pattern that is raised against the background. You can use such technique for your logo or business name.

Tip 3 Try out debossing

Instead of raising selected areas like it is the case by embossing, debossing forces paper material down the surface. This means that the debossed pattern or text will be recessed into paper surface giving a pleasant look in the end. It is an effect that best suits thicker paper stocks because of the deeper impressions it offers.

Tip 4 Color or paint card edges

Color edging is not something most people think about when creating business cards yet it is an effect that can make your cards stand out. You can match the edge colors to your brand colors or choose contrasting colors that do not steal the professionalism off the cards. You can create an interesting twist to your business cards by trying metallic colors like copper, silver and gold that have a luxurious feel to them or fluorescent colors that are exciting and fun.

Tip 5 Die cut your business cards

This is another very unique approach to premium business cards. Die cutting is the process where paper stock is cut to specific shapes with the help of a cutting die. Usually the paper will be placed on a flat surface with backing for support and then the desired die is pressed on to cut as desired. If you choose to die cut, ensure you choose shapes that look professionally unique.

Tip 6 - Try Foil stamping

This is probably the most popular finishing for luxury business cards. Foil stamping is application of metallic foil or pigment to paper before a heated die is stamped on making it stick to surface, leaving die design on the paper in elegant metallic finish. You can choose different colors for the stamping.

 

Crafting a Successful B2B Marketing Strategy

For many B2B marketers, the traditional marketing funnel that motivates prospects to self-identify and then move to a sales funnel, is ingrained in our minds. However, in the Age of the Customer, Forrester Research's phrase for a customer-driven marketing landscape, the funnel has evolved to reflect a new customer expectation requiring sales and marketing to work in tandem.

With this in mind, B2B marketers must evaluate how their current B2B marketing strategy is aligned with the psychology of their buyer journey. In other words, B2B marketers must know how to craft a marketing strategy based on the predominance of the customer.

So, we have outlined a series of steps to follow when crafting a customer-centric B2B marketing strategy. Ask yourself and your team, "have we checked the following boxes when crafting our B2B marketing strategy?"

IDENTIFY TARGET PERSONAS IN YOUR B2B MARKETING STRATEGY

Going through the exercise to develop personas based on market and customer research is fundamental to understanding not only who is your audience but how to engage them in the buyer journey. Incorporating marketing personas makes websites two to five times more effective and easier to use by targeted users. However, only 44% of B2B marketers use buyer personas. So, ensure your B2B marketing strategy includes persona-based experiences that moves buyers forward in their journey with your brand.

MAP A PERSONA-BASED CUSTOMER JOURNEY TO DRIVE YOUR B2B MARKETING STRATEGY

Building out your influencer and decision personas to understand your target audience is only part of the process of laying a customer-centric foundation for your strategy. Next is to map the touch points of your buyer journey through all buyer stages. In order to close the loop from awareness to revenue it's critical to know the touch points along the journey that are motivators and detractors in order to influence all parts of the customer experience. When developing your B2B marketing strategy answer the following, "How do I craft a strategy with the framework that aligns with your customer's journey to gain clarity and define priority?"

DEFINE AND MEASURE B2B MARKETING STRATEGY GOALS & METRICS

Perhaps a no-brainer for a data-driven B2B marketer is clearly-defined metrics for success. With a heightened emphasis on personalization and customer experience (CX), B2B marketing goals and metrics must be established to measure the success of the marketing efforts supporting a customer's progression through the buyer journey. Your B2B marketing strategy must outline how it will create direct contribution to revenue with a return and fuel high growth.
A recent case study example from one of our technology platform and services clients is Viewpointe, a leading private cloud managed services provider. Viewpointe was challenged with continuing to engage customers over the course of a 6+ month sales cycle. After clearly defining their B2B marketing goals, they aligned their content marketing plan with their persona-based customer journey. As a result, Viewpointe stayed engaged with their customers throughout the buyer journey and closed more deals. One way Viewpointe measured customer engagement lift was a 52% increase in persona aligned website content and 164% increase in blog content engagement from organic search referrals.

YOUR B2B MARKETING STRATEGY INCORPORATES ACTIONABLE INSIGHTS WITH SALES

Referring back to our earlier customer funnel illustration, the traditional hand-off from marketing to sales, with no feedback loop when a lead is "flipped over the fence to sales", causing misalignment between B2B marketing and sales teams. In fact, 25% of B2B marketers have no idea what is their customer conversion rate. In the Age of the Customer, your marketing strategy should outline how to rip out the proverbial fence and instead encourage inter-team collaboration. Ensuring this marketing and sales alignment is crucial to creating a consistent customer experience along a buyer's journey. Being intentional about sharing insights between teams is one way to encourage broad acceptance of a successful B2B marketing strategy execution.

YOUR NEXT STEP

With only 45% of B2B marketers confident that they have decent, if not high, levels of customer centricity, the time to is now to author your new B2B marketing strategy that elevates you above your competition.

At Overground, we partner with middle-market and Fortune 500 marketing leaders to ensure their successful customer-centric B2B marketing strategy not only shows direct contribution to revenue but also fuels high growth for their organization. Reach out to us today and take the next step. 

Innovating Your Business - The Power of the Brand

Remember back in the 1970's when generic grocery items were all the rage? The packaging was stark white with black lettering revealing the contents of the package. There's a reason generic products went away.
You never see a restaurant simply called "Restaurant" or a hotel just called "Hotel." Yet thousands of donut shop owners across the country have dug deep into their collective creativity... and the best they could come up with for the name of their shops was "DONUTS."

How about coming up with an actual name for a donut shop for starters? And preferably, a name that either suggests an excellent tasting donut or has some sort of local flair. Here's a quick list I came up with:

Killer Donuts - Best Darn Donut Shop - Guaranteed GREAT Donuts - Delightful Donuts - Ohio's Best Donuts

Yes, I know that the sign out front will cost a little more money than the plain vanilla DONUTS one, but remember, we're trying to take down Krispy Kreme! Spend a little extra dough on the sign. For sake of argument, let's call our Donut shop Ohio's Best Donuts. This way we can cater to not just high schools in the area.

Since our theme is Ohio, let's go ahead and decorate the place with some Ohio flair. Decorating advice should be taken from Starbucks, not from the local snow cone shop. Let's get some bright colors that make the place look lively, energetic, and fun. Built in bar-type seating around part of the perimeter of the store would be a nice touch. Make the tables and chairs a bit more substantial. Whatever tables and chairs Starbucks has, buy those. And while you're at it, buy the Starbucks CD collection and play it over built-into-the-ceiling speakers. I know it's just a donut shop, but it's not illegal to give the place some ambiance.
Next, let's hire a graphic designer to create a Ohio's Best Donuts logo and color scheme. This is important because we're going to use the logo and color scheme to actually start to brand our donut shop! Instead of using the generic white box to put the donuts in (or even worse, the generic white box with the word DONUTS and the address stamped on the front), let's instead get boxes printed with the name, logo, and slogan printed on them. Oh yes -- the slogan. How about "Not Just The Best Donuts On 3C Highway -- The Best Donuts In Ohio." Don't you like the not-so-subtle dig on the neighboring giant!?

Next up for branding -- signature donuts. Because we're a local shop, we have lots of flexibility to do whatever we want. For starters, how about a donut that's roughly TWICE as big as normal donuts. Add to that red, white, and blue glaze (or sprinkles) on them in the pattern of the Ohio flag? We could call it the "Ohio Giant" and sell them by the half dozen instead of the dozen because they're so freaking big. Now there's a donut people would go out of their way to buy -- and remember.

Now create signature donuts for each of the local high schools. How about a 'Mighty Comet' in white and green... and a orange and black 'Loveland Tigers donut? They could come in "Ohio Giant" size, regular size, and minis. People would go insane to buy these. School spirit and all that!

Then we could produce special occasion donuts -- Valentine's Day, Thanksgiving, St. Patrick's Day, you name it. Has anyone ever looked into making donuts in the shape of letters? How about this strategy... each day of the month they could create a donut with the letter that corresponds to that day of the month (A=1, B=2, etc.) and anyone who can prove their name starts with that letter can come in for a free letter donut that day only. It's worth a try. And don't tell me it's impossible to make a donut shaped like a letter.

So how much would all this branding cost? Certainly a bit more for the sign and furnishings. The logo wouldn't be too much. And signature donuts? Come on -- they don't cost anything extra. They're still just donuts! But now we have an identity that people would be interested in. People would remember these donuts -- and this donut shop. But we're just getting started.

 

Increase New Patient Bookings From the Front Desk

How many bookings do you get out of 10 new patient calls? If it's not a high number, chances are these 3 things are keeping you from extra new patients every month, costing you time and money
Chances are, during the month, you've had several calls to your office from prospective new patients that didn't book.

Why is that?

It could be one of these 3 reasons, and when fixed, can lead to extra new patients every month without spending any extra money on marketing.

1. Office staff get too busy and new patients fall through the cracks

Day to day operations of your office are important but if a new patient calls your office and is put on hold for 4 minutes, rushed off the phone, not greeted warmly, well, they aren't going to book. And if they book, they might cancel, having found a more warm office.

2. No training on how to handle new patient calls properly
Since they don't have any training, every time they answer the phone, they are winging it.

Is the staff controlling the call? Are they answering the person's question but not booking them?

Are they being warm and friendly?

Are they establishing a rapport with potential clients?

Is there long awkward pauses?

Are the patients being rushed off the phone?

Does it sound like the staff member is annoyed that someone is interrupting their work?

Are the staff offering up to standard customer service?

Does the office have an established check-in or check-out procedure?

The front desk manager needs to be extra trained to ensure that they know what the expectations are as well as making sure that new patient leads are being handled the best way possible.

Each dental employees should be trained on how to greet and treat patients that are inside the office. They need to be able to efficiently handle patients that have been waiting for a while and how to address any unhappy clients (if there are any).

3. Don't care

Well, if your staff doesn't care about your office, why should your patients?

First step is admitting that this might be happening to you. Next step is fixing it!

One way to get your staff on board and meet their target or weekly or monthly goals is to offer incentives. When you offer incentives, employees are motivated to work towards their goals. It should also be changed up every so often to keep their attention locked in!

Why Bad Emails Will Hurt Your MLM?

Have you ever received an email from a company and it was just horrible? Did it make you think "what did I do to deserve this?" Do you know you could be sending out emails like this one? Your bad emails could be killing your MLM marketing strategy and business. Email marketing is not easy, it's a difficult process and there are many different areas that will affect the health and effectiveness of your emails.

What is a bad email? A bad email is one that ends up in the spam folder, a loss of a subscriber, overly promotional, too much of nothing, no purpose or goal, bad design, unsegmented and many other factors. So you could technically kill a list of 2000 subscribers in one month, but in a year's time you will lose 23% naturally, even if you do everything OK.

Check the Health of Your MLM Lists

According to Hubspot "Marketing databases decay around 23% a year, every year." This is a natural decay process. Your design, goal, personalization options and many other factors contribute to the health of your email lists. One of the biggest issues is the lack of segmentation based on the prospects cycle. Are they looking for a solution? Maybe they are researching a problem? Maybe they are part of the team, and they want content that helps them get started quickly. There is so much to email marketing, to explain a tenth of it, a book would need to be written.

Bad MLM Email Marketing Design

In email marketing, especially for new MLM people, a bad design will destroy a business. The design process includes the graphic, text, goal, call to action layouts. It's the user experience that you have to create that is the most important. Many times, the first design may not work, so you may feel like your constantly failing. By working on each of the areas carefully, you can build a powerful connection and relation for your audience. This is one of the biggest problems that marketers face across multiply industries, the other is segmentation. Segmentation will be for another day.

Email work up from ground zero

Before you even dare launch your first email, take a look at the individual email from your prospective shoes. Does it make sense? Does it crowd you out, offer a delicious offer or is it bland and full of content with no clear direction? Your MLM campaign didn't start out with promotional stuff, so your email shouldn't either. Education and the right blend of everything else will help you succeed.

Go and get a certificate in marketing, if you think it will help. Become a life learner and you will find tremendous benefits from it.

Experiment, redesign, explore and get Creative in your MLM Business

In order to have a strong business, you will have to experiment with marketing, redesign your website for best user experience, explore other options and get creative. It sounds like a brain dead serious of steps, but many people skip the need for this process in order to be successful.

You can adjust the process to your needs. Find something that works for you and keep developing new ideas and never stop serving. Don't leave out tips if you know they can help. It can be tempting to leave something out, but it doesn't work that way anymore. Open up your eyes and explore forums to generate new ideas and marketable content. Someone somewhere is always asking a question in order to solve a problem their having. Be the hunter and not the prey. Leadership is not an option, its required to run a good business.

Why Do I Choose Home Business?

When I was a little kid, my childhood was filled with fears, uncertainty, disappointment and tears. She wanted to leave, but she couldn't because she doesn't have financial capability to feed her three young children. I saw her hopelessness and what it meant by not having the freedom of choice.

So when I grew up, I made a promise to myself, that regardless of whether or not I have a happy marriage, I must have the financial independence so I can have my freedom of choice. As I saw my dad and his success running his own business, I know that I must have my own business too. There is an old saying that employment keeps people poor, and I believe that.

No matter how big is our paycheck, it would always be living from paycheck to paycheck.

I crave to set my own hours, my own pay.

I want to approve my own leave, create my own future.

One day, my friend shared with me about her part-time home business. I rejected her because I thought its a selling business. But I was interested with the product. As I was desperately aging, I decided to follow her advise to renovate myself inside out. And I'm very grateful that because of her sharing, I got back my health, my confidence and my compliments.

The program works so well that everybody said I look younger and younger. As I was thrilled with the effectiveness of the products, I started to realize there is a huge potential out there, especially now that we have the smart phone and social media.

So I've decided to do the home business for some key reasons:

• * I like the fact that my home business would allow me to generate recurring income to pay recurring bills.
• * This business would allow me to work hard for 3 - 10 years and retire at full pay.
• One quote resonates with me deeply, it said "It's amazing how people think 4 years is a long time to succeed in business but think it's alright to stay broke at a job for 40 years."
• * Once the business is established, I would be able to spend more time with my family and live life in my own terms.
• * It is a business that I can pass down to my beloved son.

I know that even if I climbed to the top of the corporate ladder, I wouldn't be able to pass down my seat to my children. At most, I can give them my name plate as memory for helping other people build their dream.
As I fell in love with the business values and culture, I know for sure that when I succeed in my home business, I would have grown to be a better person because in order to succeed in this business, I must be willing to help people get what they want and help them change their life for the better.

My faith in the home business keep growing as witness true stories of people who succeeded in their home business. I saw them having the freedom to live life in their own terms, they work because they choose to work and not because they have to work.

I saw them being able to spend more time with their family and live a fulfilling life. As they grow into a 'bigger' individual with unlimited resources, they are able to impact thousands of life by helping others unleash their greatness to live their dream. And I've seen how they are changing the world and fighting poverty. I want to be just like them.

I am grateful that I found my life purpose. And if you can see what I see, perhaps we can create something special together.

With Love,

Rainy

In Authenticity and Courage

I believe that there is a better way to live, and if you are searching for clarity and courage despite all fears and uncertainty, follow me in my journey from the ordinary to the extraordinary.
Cheers,

Rainy

Why You Should Be Cautious About Fast MLM Success?

Is there such a thing as too much MLM success? Yes, if you're experiencing unusually amounts of activity in a positive fashion. This could mean you hit a vein of success and such veins are temporary. It feels good to have such success, but in the long run will this boost last. It may not last as long as you hope. The joy and fun is great to have, but wouldn't you want it to last during your whole career? Short term gains can help, but you may want to figure out why you're doing so good now, so you can hopefully duplicate to other campaigns.

Slow down before you Crash and Burn... 

Slow down before your business crashes and burns from the success. MLM success varies in strength and length. It is important to collect a profit and build up the empire. However, if you're too concentrated on collecting profits and sending out membership kits, your ethics and practices are questionable. It's about the people, and how you can serve them. It's not necessary about the profits, but it will come if you focus on other elements first.

It can be difficult to slow down MLM success, especially if you hit a hotspot that goes viral. However, it can mean that you may have to rethink your marketing efforts. You don't want super freezing cold spells, where nothing seems to work and life's stresses come into play. While its hot, you can refocus on generating ideas for other campaigns to help you get back on an even track. Many people would rather have instant success that burns for a short while, than a life time of success that pays off better.

What to do if Unexpected Gains Are More than Normal?

Sometimes in MLM success, you could see unexpected gains in one particular area. If you have been in the business and have a year of back data, and you see a spike in sales. You can then determine if the event is ordinary or unusual for the month from last year. If you find out that the event is usually high for the particular month, you can scale back the product or offer some to see if it's a fluke or not. If it's a fluke, you may need to revamp the offer or product page in which you're offering the deal. You don't want problems if it's a triggered assault by malware or human actions.

Why Do Leaders Have Trouble With MLM Solutions?

Some leaders that come from other industries have trouble working with and creating MLM solutions. It's natural to be unsure of how to create a plan to help others achieve results. But as a leader, the power to answer questions and solve problems has become mandatory. We must be able to craft solutions that are marketable and relevant to the needs of the prospects that we are marketing too. It is challenging to figure out how to proceed in the first couple of weeks in an MLM company. The biggest difference between solutions is how you market it and tie it into the particular business. The MLM industry is a people focused industry, just like the automotive.

Dealing with Common Leadership Problems with MLM Solutions

New leaders will struggle with defining their MLM solutions, unless they know what makes them different from everyone else. The self-value that one has may be replicated elsewhere, but it doesn't mean it can be focused on a narrow margin. How would a rookie leader deal with recruiting, retention and marketing problems that they have or others have? Education is important, but experience will refine their education into powerful skills that will either help them succeed or fail.

Not all MLM solutions will require a top level education or skill set. The important factor is to recognize the problem in the first place. When you recognize the problem, you research into possible solutions and experiment. This can help build experience and develop troubleshooting skills that will make life easier. The biggest issues that a new leader will face is dealing with problems from their down lines, recruiting and marketing. Much of this can be solved with experimentation and education.

Refining Leadership MLM Solutions for Rising Stars

Once you have gained experience in a given area, you can turn the experiences into MLM solutions for others to learn from. You don't have to stick with one format, many people use videos to record and share them with their prospects. If you're a good writer, you can blog your solutions or turn them into premium content offers. It's important to keep learning and to share them. Never be afraid to admit that you were wrong and update your solutions accordingly to help your team and leads. This will build transparency and increase your trust factor by two fold. Without trust in a relationship, there is no business and that means no working capital to increase your business.

How to Combine MLM Solutions and Leadership in One Package

Leadership skills can be offered as an MLM solutions package in your business. You can train upcoming team members to be effective leaders from your experience and knowledge. You can also put together bigger packages with help from others to ensure success. This program can help you combine one area of training with another in order to reduce some time spent learning. Power packs of information are useful tools to deploy in the field for busy individuals with limited time frames to learn skills they need to survive. As tech improves the productivity and entertainment factors in our lives, we need to consider streaming educational content that delivers value and skills.

Why Build Tomorrow's Leaders with One Package?

Tomorrow MLM leaders will need a time advantage over other industries. This includes value and skills wrapped up in one package so it's easier to stay organized and focused. Your MLM solutions may be scattered across the board, but it doesn't mean that you can't group one or two at a time in a uniform manner. This means short courses that covers all possible areas in a zip folder that your team can download. This will save space and allow you to do other things with the space. Many hosting providers have limits on space and download bandwidth. In essence, you need to make every byte count.

By bundling common and relevant material together for new leaders, they can learn and acquire the knowledge faster. As premium MLM solutions you can market them accordingly and acquire new leads. The amount time spent learning can be decreased and your team's up time could be increased as much as 25%.
Training others to think and to forge ahead without fear

Imagine training others to forge ahead and get their businesses started without fear or hesitation. The realm of reduced training and support is possible, if you consider bundling your MLM solutions in training packages. If you cover a subject matter in great detail, your team will be able to turn knowledge into skill 50% faster. However, if you skip or withhold information, you are only asking for problems then. The whole point is to educate, train and reduce time spent training others in every area. Each package should go from novice to expert and you may have to learn more about an area before developing the package itself. Have fun and experiment with the package idea. You can use a variety of content types to spread out the material. Don't be afraid to experiment with your prospects.

Meet Daniel My New Little Executive Assistant!

I had no idea what I was getting myself into when I had to unexpectedly quit my full-time job in May of this year. In a way I knew the time was going to come because I was missing out on my son growing up and I wanted to be the one home loving, teaching, and taking care of him, but I wasn't planning on having to do it so quickly. I guess babies grow up faster than we hope. It didn't take me long to realize I had a very huge problem... His name is Daniel.

Of course, I love him more than anything in this world and he was the very reason I quit my job. Unfortunately, I didn't have any idea... how I was going to work at home and take care of him at the same time. To be totally honest I still haven't got a clue, but I came across an article the other day that talked about a mom that made her 16 month old daughter her executive assistant.

I know totally unheard of... Right?

My thoughts exactly, but I am now a stay at home mom that wants to work help and help support our family any way I possibly can. I've decided to try to make Daniel my executive assistant. I know from hours of research that everyone has their own ideas about setting up a workspace at home and that when you have children they say that you should have a separate place for your child!

I couldn't agree more, but I don't have a spare bedroom or den to use for an office in my home. We live in a small 1970's something single wide. With that being said, the only choice I have to set up my little office space is a little 5 foot corner against the back wall of my living room. Of course, Daniel has his own bedroom where he could go and play, but that never happens. Remember, me telling you he's needy, spoiled, and wild. I wasn't joking!

That's crazy! Read on...

Daniel's a Little Man Trapped In a Big Man's Body!

Alright. You're asking, if I encouraged him to play in the same room while I was working? No of course not. However, one of the ways children learn while growing up, is by imitating actions of people who are around them. Which is you! Have you ever just stopped what you were doing and just watched how your child plays on a daily basis? I have and was totally surprised to see what Daniel did while not under my direct supervision. He's a little man trapped in a big man's body!

Alright, so I'm over exaggerating a little... but he is his dad's son and "works" throughout the day. I was really amazed to see how much he really does imitate his dad's actions. With this being said, I am going to take my new found knowledge and use it to my advantage. Hopefully it'll work because I haven't had much luck with anything else and I'm not getting as much as I'd like to accomplished. I am going to make him his own work area next to mine.

The Executive Assistant Will Be In Shortly!

I am going to make Daniel his own little office next to my office. In hopes that he'll enjoy and love working with me everyday. It'll be just for him. Donald and I will get him his own little table or desk whichever one we can find with a chair and set it up right next to mine. Then we'll get him his own little cell phone, some coloring books and crayons, and a work bench with some toy tools. We already have a TV and DVD player so he can watch cartoons.

Hopefully, he will love having his own little space where he'll be able to watch me, play alongside of me while I work, and we can both get things done. Right now, he wants my undivided attention and doesn't want me to do anything, but pay attention to him and him only. I'm not sure what else I can possibly do to make him feel more secure and assure him that I'm not going anywhere, that I can play with him, pay attention to him, and still work.

My New Little Executive Assistant

I am not sure if this will work for either of us yet, but at this point I have nothing to lose. I'm thinking that I can give him a couple little things that he can do throughout the day that will help teach him such as hammer a nail in his work bench or complete a puzzle. As he gets older I can start adding other things that will help him learn while we are in our little office working.

With that being said, Meet Daniel My New Little Executive Assistant!

Why All Good MLM Leaders Network?

MLM leaders need to realize that cross industry networking is a good idea. Not for money making purposes, but to help brainstorm and share ideas on how to recruit and retain personnel. Some things are better left out the financial gain element within, it doesn't limit the ability to collaborate on projects. Good MLM leaders will touch into two different industries, but only if it falls under the MLM industry. Extraordinary leaders cast of the umbrella and link up with others in various industries. The exchange of information and experience is useful for one's own purpose within their own career.

You can find the power to reach out to leaders in other industries that doesn't fall under the MLM. Even if you connect with others within the MLM umbrella, its fine. You can help one other with ideas and other areas. The point is to make connections that may be useful for specialized resources that you create for your business. The power of networking is not just becoming friends with someone new, but to include them in relevant areas in your marketing.

Building Up Team Spirit by encouraging Cross Industry Networking

You can build up your team by encouraging your team to network. If you're looking to create strong MLM leaders, this is very important. They will need their own resources and networks for their business. Cross industrial networks are powerful connections that are beneficial for both parties involved. Your team morale may see a big boost after they connect with other likeminded people. This is very useful especially if they are having problems connecting with prospects on a personal level. An open mind is one that never starves. It feeds on new experiences to help process other triggers that happen.

Having a strong team spirit is great for MLM leaders that are looking to increase value to their business. A healthy team can focus on goals and move forward easier than one that is struggling with team issues. It's not easy managing a diverse team, but with a core operating procedure that prevents discrimination is one that must take place before moving onward.

Having nice stuff is good, but if doesn't help you live a life that is a bit more comfortable, then it's not worth seeking. Some stuff like office equipment may not directly pay off, but it can help in the long run. Balancing out your wants and needs is important to have a better life. Never have a lifestyle that you cannot support continuously. If you have to go in debt for it, then you may need to change your lifestyle.

 

How to Deal With Network Marketing Failure?

Let's face the truth and nothing but the truth, you may have been misled by recruiters in the MLM industry. They may have told you some white lies about the business, they may not have told you that some people will actually completely fail at the business. How do you deal with the fact that failure can happen to anyone without regard to status or talent? How would you respond if you woke up tomorrow to find out that your business is completely dead in the water? Would you scream and throw things? Would you praise heaven and be grateful? There is no magical system that will make you prosperous, all the books out there on how to make you successful are a lie.

You will have Network Marketing Failures

At some point in your network marketing career, you will make mistakes and have your marketing campaign completely go bonkers in the wrong direction. It's OK to have failure, but many times people can't handle the stress involved with the failure. Even knowing they've put all of their heart into creating a paper pretty campaign. People are creating an internet society where no one reads much anymore and its only them to blame for it. Some people are exception to the rule, if your content is good enough and well formatted for anti-skimming. You can make your readers stay with you.

If you wake up tomorrow to find out that your business is failing completely, what would you do? Network marketing costs money to run, it's not cheap. Especially with everyone out there thinks their stuff is more important than other peoples. There is more junk online than you would find in a land fill. Everyday someone has to give up on their business because they can't hack it. They can't get the business they need. They are missing the key. Are you missing the key?

How to cope like a rock star with Network Marketing

If you're at the point of closing the doors forever, do realize that network marketing is difficult. Just like any online service business, you're selling an idea and it's not physical in anyway. Many people can't cope with complete failure, knowing they have lost their investment and will never ever again see it. Just like any business, it takes work and a critical mind to look and find problem spots before they get worse. If website traffic is one issue, you can look at different ways to help increase your traffic flow. This doesn't mean kiss butt routes like influence marketing. Find the problem and then do the research for a solution and then apply fix.

Starting a Home-Based Jewelry Business

If you are creative, love to craft and make things, then this home-based business might just be what you need to earn some money while at home. It is a type of job that you can let your creative juices flow and make things that people want to wear. When making your jewelry do not stick with just one piece such as necklaces. Many ladies want jewelry pieces that go together like a necklace and earrings. You also need to make sure that you include all ages, including children because they love to look beautiful too. Market your home based business online on a website you have designed or go to craft shows.

The best craft shows to attend are the ones near a holiday, especially Christmas. Most craft shows are one day, on weekends, and usually start in September or October. Check with your local Chamber of Commerce, your local newspaper, or online for craft shows in your area. When you go to a craft show have someone go with you so you can browse the other venders and network to find other craft shows. One thing you should do before going to craft shows is to have business cards made so people can take one in case they want to order later. If they do purchase something at your booth make sure that you include a business card in with their purchase. If you are selling necklaces purchase several of displays so you can hang a necklace on the display to give the potential customer an idea of what it looks like. If you have a customer looking at a particular piece encourage them to try it on and have a nice hand mirror so they can see what it looks like on them.

When pricing your creations do not price too high or too low. You should figure how much the material costs and then double it, adding a few dollars to that price for your time making it. Get small price tags that you can tie onto your pieces. This is important to remember because many people do not like to ask how much something is. They would rather see it on the price tag. On your website you should also make sure that the price is listed with the jewelry piece. To increase your profits go online to find wholesale jewelry supplies to order your supplies in bulk. Since this is a business you will also need to apply for a sales tax exemption certificate from your local state office. Having a home based business creating jewelry is not only fun but profitable.

Starting A Home Business

More people especially women have chosen to leave the world of employment and 9-5 working life in favor of starting their own business. There are lots of reasons for this including the financial aspect, but this isn't the only reason work from home businesses have risen so dramatically.

Data shows that people starting their own business has risen around 42% since 2010. There are a number of reasons why it's now become easier and less stressful to leave the world of 9-5 employment. The main reason seems to be flexibility and being able to have time at home with the children and have a career. Mom's especially don't want to leave their children for long periods of time and their past employment doesn't always allow them to adapt and become more flexible.

The other motivation is being able to arrange a good work schedule around your family. When you work from home there is so much more flexibility around arranging times to work. The opportunities that arise when Moms are at home on maternity leave also present some of the great business ideas that have emerged, many women discover gaps in the market which allows them to start thinking and planning their business from home. The other huge motivation is child care, often child care can be a real struggle with many women finding they are just working to pay child care bills and when you add this to the stress of being away from home and family for long periods of time, it just doesn't add up.

Many women often find that when they do return to paid employment after starting a family, they have to do so with less hours in order to be able to manage the demands of a family and a job/career. This means that they earn less money and often aren't mentally challenged like they once were, this can lead to them no longer enjoying their job/career and spending the days longing to start their own business from home but sadly many women don't take the first steps to starting their own business because they are afraid it may fail or they are worried about finances.

There is more help available now than there once was and the internet has made it very easy to promote and stay in touch with others in the same field. More women are thinking seriously about starting their own business and even if they are not ready to take the first steps, they are researching and connecting with others which is allowing them to go forward and plan making their dream a reality. Starting a business from home can be scary and I don't think anyone finds themselves in a position where (they have it all) all of the time but the flexibility and the access the internet provides mean we are all one step closer to realizing our dreams and taking that first step. We all want to have the flexibility to spend time and care for our children but we don't want to give up on our dreams at the same time and many people especially women are finding ways to do both.

Marcetme is an online resource for people who have their own business, want to start their own business or want business ideas. Marcetme allows users to connect to to others.

 

How to Start a Home Based Perfume Business

Here is some helpful information to get you started, and you can find a lot more on the internet.
Perfumes must have an aromatic component which could be natural, such as a flower extract, extracts from various plant materials, or essential oils. Or it could be synthetic, as found in most of the more affordable perfumes on sale today.

Perfume fragrances need not be made from scratch. If you would like to start a home based perfume business, it is far easier to buy a fragrance from a perfumery supply company. There is a very wide variety available.

This fragrance base must be diluted to make it more usable. Undiluted, it will be difficult to apply, far too strong and may even irritate the skin. Therefore the fragrance must be diluted with an appropriate solvent. Dilution ratios of 10%- 20% fragrance (90%-80% solvent) are normally used. To make an oil based perfume, the perfume has to be diluted with an oil which has no fragrance of it's own. This is usually Jojoba oil. Oil based perfumes are not normally sprayed. They are dabbed or rolled on.

In most common types of perfume, the fragrance is diluted with a solvent which is mostly ethyl alcohol. This makes the perfume very easy to spray using an atomizer pump and the alcohol evaporates on the skin, leaving the fragrance behind. If you are starting a business, this solvent can be purchased from the perfumery supply company where you bought the fragrance. The solvent will normally have a few other ingredients apart from the alcohol to make it work better. After you have mixed the fragrance with the alcohol solvent, you must leave it for at least 48 hours or more before bottling. If there is a sediment, it can be strained in a coffee filter.

If you want to sell your perfume successfully, the packaging and appearance of the perfume bottles are just as important as the fragrance. Take your time choosing the bottles and designing the labelling. The quality of the atomizer pump is critical, in order that the user should not experience any difficulty. Most first time perfume packers use screw cap atomizers, but quickly find that some of the bottles leak, then they graduate to crimp pumps. Bottles and atomizer crimp pumps are available from many suppliers and can also be imported quite cheaply, although one should be careful of the quality. Stick to the FEA 15 mm neck finish for a start. It looks neat and is the most common size. The next difficulty is to find an affordable crimper which will produce a high quality crimp finish and seal the bottle properly.
