postheadericon Self Education in the Internet Marketing and Top Tier Direct Sales Industry

In this day and age, the demand for skilled leaders is so great, one wonders what they should do or where they should go to aquire the skill sets necessary to be of any use to their prospects.

You can’t just get on a train and start conducting it. For every skilled trade, what is required of you is more than just theory. You have to start getting your hands dirty because without the field experience, you are nothing but a no-mind with a bunch of levers and buttons. What’s even scarier is that you also have the power over other people’s lives who put their faith in you and your skills.

This is the same with internet marketing. People put their faith in you when they sign up for a service you are providing or even with a product you endorse. They believe they will get what they want and they are taking your hand with the expectation that you will take them where they want to go.

This is why there are apprentices (student) and journeymen (teacher). Without the people around who know what they are doing, the apprentices will stay in the dark about their profession.

Have you ever encountered someone in their job who seemed unsure or under practiced? You can spot these people a mile away, and they seem to crack even more at the added pressure of knowing that you can sense this about them. They need people who have patience, not who are going to rush them along to get through the material without stopping to ask them if they understand what they are learning…

How do you expect anyone to get by in the world of internet marketing or top tier direct sales without a little help from the finest in their industry? The apprentices will eventually try to pass the class without being taught exactly how to do it and then will just end up with an imaginary piece of paper that entitles them to nothing. Apprentices and new internet marketers both need some guidance.

I am currently studying 3 books to help me in my personal journey in becoming a great copywriter. They are as follows: The Ultimate Sales Letter by Dan Kennedy, Hypnotic Writing: How to Seduce and Persuade Customers with Only Your Words by Joe Vitale, and The Adweek Copywriting Handbook by Joseph Sugarman.

There is also another book I have read by Andy Andrews. It is called The Traveller’s Gift-Seven Descisions to Personal Success. It is a fun read and if you know anything about the history of people like Ann Frank, King Solomon, Christopher Columbus and George Washington, you will enjoy it also!

Here is a quote from Charles W. Chesnutt that I like: Impossibilities are merely things which we have not yet learned.

So again I ask you, what have you learned today that makes you more valuable to your potential prospects?

postheadericon Success Factors of Business Intelligence Implementation

Business Intelligence (BI) refers to skills, processes, technologies, applications and practices used to support decision making. Thus a BI system can be called a decision support system.Although there could be many factors that could affect the implementation process of a BI system, a research shows the following are the critical success factors for a business intelligence implementation:

1. Focus on business processes and requirements. Often companies get tied up in the technical capabilities and ignore how you want your business operations to run and what your key business requirements are. Once you have this defined, you can engage in a more effective BI system.

2. Focus on achieving a healthy ROI (Return on Investment). This requires developing a high-level business case, establishing key performance measures, setting baselines and targets for those measures, and tracking performance after go-live.

3. Strong project management and resource commitment. Ensure you have a strong project manager to support and participate in the project.

4. Commitment from company executives. Besides support from a CIO or Director, support from the CEO and top management is also needed.

5. Take time to plan up front. Ensure things are done right at the beginning of the project rather than spending time to fix the problems later on.

6. Ensure adequate training and change management. Help people to understand and effectively use the BI system.

Obviously many other companies rely on role play. However, those specialist companies know this isn’t the case and often the reverse effect tends to happen making people close up and feel awkward. Training programmes cover all bases, from dealing with customer complaints to helping each other and build strong working relationships.
