Price isn’t everything. We’ve all made that mistake of buying something because of the price only to find it falls apart within a few days. There are plenty of deals out there to be made but you shouldn’t select suppliers on their price alone. Ask your network. Attend trade shows.

You know, the one where I said that getting clients wasn’t about price ?

Many are not shelved in the self-help section, but each will open up new roads into your wide-open future.

Do you attend networking conferences a few times a year? You have to pay for airline tickets, hotels, food, entrance fees and more – it is all a business expense. Are you really considering all the costs of running, and growing a business, as expenses? Consider this as you periodically adjust your pricing.

With an activity that you must initiate, it’s easy to let other tasks come first: responding to incoming calls and mail, getting the invoices out, going to networking events, and oh yes, doing the client work you get paid for.

As a speaker you have a number of things to juggle -- proposals, marketing collateral, networking conversations, presentation material, contracts, travel, etc.    Unless you have business processes in place, you may find your business growing "out of control."

How many social networks do you belong to?  Now, take a look at your business card, brochures or other social media profiles.    The other day I was in a meeting and saw a card that had the back covered with 2 different QR codes and the front had a few different urls. .

.  In simple terms, a CRM tool if used correctly, can help you manage all of the communication you have with your prospects, clients/customers, people you network with, service providers and more.    For example, say you met someone at a networking meeting a year ago and had a conversation with that person.

You can get great deals, compare items and even get great prices, all in one site. One place that I’ve found to be a great area to research items on is eBay (which I am sure you have heard of). There are penny deals all the time, where auctions start off at just one cent.

I teach classes to entrepreneurs and budding entrepreneurs, showing them how to take existing materials and turn them into entertaining videos & podcasts for sharing on social networks.

Doesn’t have an office and most of the time doesn’t have business cards either (the new dial tone being twitter , of course). But that’s a really small price to be paid once you get in the flow.
