You thought you heard the phone ring this morning but you aren’t sure. The ironic thing is that I was reading this article procrastinating a phone call I know I need to make… *sigh* Chris Mower´s last blog. Revise your grocery list. Add ribbon floss. Mint flavored. Call your dentist. Check your voice mail.

Throughout the months of phone calls, backtracking, moving forward, and backtracking again, there was a lot of confusion. Twitter,Facebook, your project manager, your to-do list app, Google Analytics, your bookkeeping software, or your email accounts? My phone plressed the return key and it submitted. A lot of hurt feelings.

You have many options: landline, cellular phone, texting, fax line (yeah, many people still fax), email, website contact form, Twitter direct message, LinkedIn message, Skype, and lots more. Yes, you have to manage your time and you can’t email all day, but don’t get so efficient that you become unreachable and aloof.

As if getting them on the phone is too expensive, like it used to be. Because even today (sigh), it is too expensive for me to get hundreds of people on the phone every day. Weird I’ve never heard of you Josh, how the hell did you manage to fly past my radar at 6’8 while carrying around your huge metal balls?

The people I’ve spoken to have managed to be successful in their business. And frankly, we ‘net-savvy people do talk about the virtual world and technology like we really can’t imagine how those businesspeople ever managed without it. The last time I needed the phone number, I looked online. “You want this?

People can hear confidence over the phone, through the Internet and even by watching you sit on the bus with a newspaper. That’s why you’re supposed to wear a tie and stand up even when you’re doing a phone interview. But if you are going to fake it until you make it, you may want to invest in some theater skills.

The next time you get an email that seems to be a thinly veiled jab – or even an outright insult – to you or your work, take a deep breath, wait a bit, and write back a quick email that asks if you can discuss this either via online chat or over the phone the next day. Be friendly. Act as though nothing is wrong.

Having said that, there are some mums who do manage to run a profitable business from home while looking after the kids. But when we do biz online we don’t have those clues, so just start typing or pick up the phone. A sign on the door stating the hours. A locked door after hours. We are all guilty of this to some degree.

Online is a massive place and so when you small chunk it to the niches you like, it’s more manageable (and more fun). Should passengers be allowed to use cell phones in flight? Reply FitJerks Fitness Blog ( @fitjerk ) November 20, 2009 at 6:36 am @Heather Yep, you’re right. Pat OF COURSE those are niches. That’s all.

They work on projects, they do their own customer service, their own customer management, their marketing and networking, their project scheduling, admin and bookkeeping. Turn off the phone while working and don’t answer every call. Let the answering machine pick up the phone and focus on getting that work out of the way.

I have found many clients – business owners and marketing managers alike – can be very sketchy on marketing fundamentals such as target markets, calls to action, uniqueness, offers, etc. BTW this is also a great way to capture the client’s tone and voice.) The interview allows me to probe deeper and clarify details on the spot.
