Discover the Power of FAQ Templates to Capture More Online Sales

If you want to capture more online sales faster, better and with the least amount of human effort then I encourage you to develop FAQ templates.

What are FAQ templates? Well FAQ stands for Frequently Asked Questions. So FAQ Templates are templates that allow you to include frequently asked questions on your web sites, blogs, and other marketing communications.

Adding FAQ sections to your websites and other marketing communications are often your very best automated sales tools that consistently and repeatedly capture more sales by minimizing resistance.

Whatever your area of expertise, there are frequently asked questions by your prospects and even your members and customers. You discover these FAQs in at least 2 ways:

1. Pay attention to what your prospects and community is typically asking you, and

2. Ask them. Ask them what their questions are, what their biggest challenges are, what they struggle with the most.

Then provide both the questions and answers on your web sites and marketing messages and you have now answered new prospects questions before they have even asked them. This ups your perceived expert status and reduces sales resistance from the beginning.

Are You an Inventor Or Improver in Your Business?

“Never invent, always improve.”

This four-word sentence is indelibly etched in my mind right now. I also have that quote framed and hanging on the wall of my home office.

The marketing philosophy of choosing improvement over invention has generated millions of dollars for my info publishing business and my students’ businesses.

Although the idea of becoming an “Improver” is not as sexy as being known as an “Inventor,” it is improvement, not invention, that has generated billions for some of the most renowned Thought Leaders in history. Ironically, many of these folks have been inaccurately dubbed as “Inventors.”

Here’s one example: Nikola Tesla invented the modern alternating current electric power (AC) systems. Thomas Edison improved it. Telsa died broke. Edison died a millionaire.

Here’s another: Charles Haanel is the true “father of personal development” in my opinion. He invented The Master Key System, yet he died in obscurity acknowledged by only a few loyal followers. [Read more...]

The Seven Secrets of Action Management

Secret Number 1: Create Your Master To-Do List - Don’t write your list the day you want to do those things, write it the day before – sometimes a few days before. You want to write your master to-do list for the future. Why? Because it’s easier to come to a desk that’s clean and has a master to-do list that’s already been written sitting on it – that way, you can start your first prime-time hour by attacking that list and crossing things out. Isn’t that a lot easier than trying to invent things to do?

Secret Number 2: Block out your daily prime-time hours - A prime-time hour is anything you control 100% percent of and is going to generate revenue for you now or sometime in the future. Now, you can have just one prime-time hour a day or two a day, even four a day. Most people don’t have any.

Secret Number 3: During prime time, put pressure on yourself by using a timer - Put the timer where you can see it, right next to your computer screen. When that thing is counting down, is that putting pressure on you or what? When the beeper goes off, stop everything you’re doing. It’s incredibly important because you’ve got to give yourself a break.

Secret Number 4: Capture your big ideas digitally - Record three, four or maybe five thoughts that come into your head during the non-prime-time hours. And once they’re recorded, you don’t have to think about them anymore. You can purge them from your mind, freeing your brain to come up with more.

Secret Number 5: Offer one free consultation per week or per day - This is a free consult with a twist. The clients know that at the end of that consultation, if they want to continue to work with you, they are going to pay up at the end of the session.

Secret Number 6: Find a mutual coaching buddy - It’s great when you can give something to somebody, and they can give something back. Find a mutual coaching buddy.

Secret Number 7: Set your revenue quota every ninety days - First, figure out what you can make in a year, then divide that into weekly goals. Make sure it’s realistic. I like weekly goals because they’re easy to measure. Write down every week if you made it or not. Then, every 90 days, review how you did and adjust it – either up or down.
