Are You Bugging Your Prospects? | BrightFire™ Women’s Business Network, LLC

Blog Post: Are You Bugging Your Prospects? - One of the things that really keeps women entrepreneurs from serving the clients they are meant to serve is the fear of bugging their prospects. I hear stories all of the time from women business owners about how they don't want to "annoy" people by doing things like sending out their newsletter, following up after a conversation, or even making an offer to do business. This leads to inconsistent marketing and an ineffective sales process.

Blog Post: Your Brand and Social Media Matters - For those of you who don't know, I have 3 children, all of whom have life-threatening food allergies. Managing food allergies over the last 8 1/2 years inspired me to launch a division of BrightFire called, Fantastically Free, to help children, families, and adults live safe, healthy, and happy lives despite food allergies.

Get Past “No” and Improve Your Sales | BrightFire™ Women’s Business...

Blog Post: Get Past "No" and Improve Your Sales - Most entrepreneurs that I have encountered tend to take a "no" response from prospects as a personal rejection. One key to increasing your sales and serving the people you are truly meant to serve is realizing that "no" is not a personal rejection of you. Often times, it's not even a rejection of your services; it's just the first response that comes to mind when prospects have a concern that needs to be addressed

Blog Post: Speak for Free to Boost Your Revenue - I consider speaking to be one of my "high-octane" marketing strategies. In fact, I recommend that all of my clients incorporate speaking into the marketing and sales process. While it's really cool to get paid a fee for speaking, often, you can boost your revenue even more with a free speaking gig. This is especially true if you get to collect leads, make an offer, or sell your books or products at the back of the room.

Blog Post: Are You Wrapped Up in Work? - Are you "wrapped up in your work?" Before you answer, I should explain that I'm not asking you whether or not you are a "workaholic." Instead, I'm asking if the work that you do creates an insulated barrier between you and your prospects. Do you spend a lot of time networking and talking to prospects but they don't seem to grasp exactly what you do and what you help people to achieve?
