As many of you know I am NOT a technically inclined and have no
idea how to build a website.

Since I am writing this on Sunday I have no way of contacting
my webmaster to build a page for this!

BUT- That isn;t stopping me.
Too many times we don’t do things because of SELF-IMPOSED
limitations – when there is an easy work around or the ability
to find someone WHO CAN do it.

Instead- most of us just accept the fact that we can’t do it
when in reality you could !!!

HUH?

The election isn’t until November 6th but stay with me because this article will give you some good advice you can use in your own business- TODAY!

This morning – as I do every morning I rolled up to the 7-11 around the corner for my house.  That’s where I get my coffee- read the days newspapers. As I walked in I saw some new decals on the floor. A blue one and a red one. A donkey and an elephant.
STRANGE?
It didn’t dawn on me at first that they were talking about Democrats and Republicans. But as I grabbed my cup to fill it up I noticed a blue cup that said OBAMA and a red cup that said ROMNEY.

Now I don’t want to start any political debates here- ( although there were less red cups than blue ones) but rather- I want to tell you HOW SMART this is.

7-11 is now using the upcoming election to make more money for their business- and so should you!

I get to the how in a minute but the one thing we all know is that the Democrats and Republicans have 2 very different visions. They both seem to be leaning to the extremes of their parties. But that brings out passion. This election will decide the future of our country for many generations.

BUT LET’S GET BACK TO MY POINT!

So 7-11 is now asking you to come in and cast your vote with your wallet.  SMART!!!!
But they are NOT done yet. I’ll bet you that as the election draws closer they will announce
their winner!!! EVEN SMARTER
They will be getting NATIONAL radio – tv- newspaper coverage of their strictly “for profit” poll.
I’ll bet you they will get MILLIONS in additional sales.
AND
TENS OF MILLIONS in Free Pr!

Now the question is what you can do to copy this idea in your business????

Oh- and by the way- Halloween is around the corner too.

How about a promotion that says.
IT SCARES ME TO THINK YOU WOULD MISS THIS??
OR
DON’T BE SCARED YOU CAN ________WITH OUR __________
Of course use graphics for halloween !!! and if mailing it put in an orange envelope.

Enjoy,

Brian

REMEMBER- leave your HONEST feedback below

For those of you who have been subscribers for a while
you know that I am a big fan of having buyers sold on using me
BEFORE they even meet me.

See it’s all about setting up systems that do the work for you
instead of you doing the hard work yourself. Imagine if you could
pick up the phone and have the person on the other end ready to
purchase what you are offering.

AND YOU HAVEN’T EVEN SPOKEN WITH THEM YET.

How do you get them to hear your sales message without you ever
speaking to them?

The secret is creating a REPORT that provides value but is basically
your entire sales presentation.

It provides them with the answers to their questions and tells
them why they should use you.

Here’s an example from our new show

http://www.mybusinessinsider.com

the report is at so you don’t have to optin if you don’t want to
but you SHOULD listen to the past shows- great content

http://www.mybusinessinsider.com/9costlymistakes.pdf

Here’s a copy from my mobile marketing solutions business Trackable
Response.
http://www.trackableresponse.com

To see the report without opting in go to
http://trackableresponse.com/Automotive/thank-you/

Now the BIG SECRET here is to tell them the WHAT but not the HOW
YOU provide the how when they call.

There are lots and lots of little known secrets here as well but
the big takeaway for you is to know that this report – or a webinar
does the heavy lifting as opposed to you being on the phone and
repeating the same conversation over and over again trying to
convince your prospect to use you instead of your compeittion.

PPPS—– ANOTHER HUGE SECRET–

It may seem strange that I am asking you to complete a survey instead of just sending you to a sales
page to order right?

WELL HERE’S A BONUS LESSON!

All too often I meet with business and practice owners who convince themselves they have a product or service
that will “Sell like hotcakes”  Bet you’ve done the same! They go invest alot of money and energy only to be
disappointed-

HERE’S A RECIPE FOR SUCCESS- DON”T BE FOOLED BY HOW SIMPLE IT IS OK?

step 1. Find out what your customers want
step 2- let them know you can provide
step 3- provide it

Don’t you just hate fighting it out with your competition?
Don’t you hate hearing ”So and So is much cheaper than you?”

How about the marketing that doesn’t seem to be working?

I’m not asking to irritate you. Heaven knows I had the same issues.

Here’s what I decided to know.

WARNING- It’s going to sound strange at first but stay
with me ok?

I decided to do 3 important things.

1. Stop competing and become a specialist
2. Raise my prices and act like a specialist
3. Let everyone know about it so they would chase me and
price would be irrelevant.

Now before you go saying ”Gee I can’t do that” let me tell you that
you can do this for ANY business or service.

Last week I put this into practice again and I would love to
hear your thoughts on it.

We started the Business Insiders Show here in Baltimore and Sunday
was our first show

www.mybusinessinsider.com

the listen to a past show button is on the top menu

I know it’s asking a lot to ask you to listen in

BUT

1. I would personally appreciate your comments!
you can leave them at http://www.profitandwealth.com/radioshow
or if you are reading this on the blog itself just leave them below.

2. We covered some great topics - and some items you can put into
use today to grow your own profits right away.

Thanks in Advance,
Brian Sacks

PS- The show is 29 minutes long- but jam packed with great info
www.mybusinessinsider.com

The past shows button is in the top menu

PPS- Last week I offered to personally coach you on how to have
your own show and immediately be seen as the expert.
Our group is now full, in fact it filled up within 24 hours of me
announcing it.

I have helped almost 24 experts who have their own shows and are
doing very well in spite of this nasty economic climate

But if you want to get in on the next group send me an e-mail
brian@profitandwealth.com or call 410-420-2343

TIRED OF THE TOUGH COMPEITION?

Maybe you are just plain tired!

Stay with me here because will make sense soon.

If you are tired of the rat race- and price shoppers- tire kickers–

competing on price and not having enough business  there is a simple solution.

STOP COMPETING?

Yes- you read that correctly! STOP COMPETING!

HOW?

You do it by positioning yourself as the obvious go to expert

and one of the fastest ways to do that is with your own book

or radio show!

Taking my own advice I have co-founded BUSINESS INSIDERS RADIO
and our first show is this Sunday

Listen in at 105.7 at 7:30 am on Sundays

or if that’s too early you can catch the replay at

http://www.mybusinessinsider.com  a few days later

WOULD LOVE YOUR HONEST FEEDBACK ! Plus I’m sure you will

learn something useful in each show!

Brian

PS- If you would like some one on one help positoning yourself as the
OBVIOUS EXPERT AND GO TO PERSON send my office an e-mail at

brian@profitandwealth.com or call 410-20-2343
NOTE: I can only take on a limited number of new clients due to my time constraints and schedule

Brian Sacks and Howard Zeiden in studio

WHY?

It’s been a while since I have posted and over the past 90 days
I have NOT been posting as frequently,so I thought I owed you and explanation.

WHERE AM I – WHAT HAVE I BEEN DOING?

As I have written in previous posts I have been building my mobile marketing
company. But I have also been doing a few other things as well.

1. My show – Business Insiders will be starting on 105.7 fm CBS RADIO
on Sundays starting in late July.
If you are a professional or business that would benefit from this demographic
Shoot me an e-mail – brian@profitandwealth.com
we have 1 last slot for a sponsor
As we get closer I hope you’ll listen in and I will of course send you some reminders

Honestly- there is no better way to position yourself as the expert in a field
Than having your own radio show- appearing on tv- and having your own book.

IT ALL SOUNDS HARDER THAN IT IS
If you have been a subscriber for any time you realize I have done it all.
In several different niches.

It’s all about positioning yourself as the obvious expert so people are chasing you !!

( BURN THAT ONE INTO YOUR MEMORY)

— ( btw- if you want some private one on one coaching on that topic send an e-mail to my staff
brian@profitandwealth.com or call the office 410-420-2343)

LASTLY- I have become addicted to my IPAD – but one
of the coolest features is the newstand.
I am working hard on putting the PROFIT AND WEALTH magazine on the newstand
Will keep you posted — so you can grab a copy
The best part is that it can be totally interactive- You’lll see when I launch it!!

That’s it for now,

Brian

LOTS OF YOU ARE STRUGGLING
MANY DON’T SEE THE FORREST  PERIOD !

This all came about from 2 consultations I had last week.

Both of these members were smart.
Both had been very successful.
Both were now stuck- as if in quick sand ( mentally)

I was able to help both get going but it  gave me an idea
and I would love your opinion.

I would put together a site where you would get.

1. A  weekly motivational quote and how to implement it
2. A monthly call that would go over 1 important MINDSET/SUCCESS tactic
3. A  TO DO LIST and the highlights
4. A Q and A call so you can have my direct help where you are stuck.

Many are starting over after watching their industries and business fall
victim to this “NEW ECONOMY”

Hey- I ‘ve been thru it too

I just did some searching in my library and found over 300 CLASSICS
on mindset and success prinicples

IT DOESN’T MATTER WHO YOU ARE
IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT YOU DO
IT DOESN”T MATTER WHERE YOU ARE  STUCK

These classics have answers- that’s why I invested in them!!
Many are out of print and not available at any price
But each month you will get one of these classics

MORE IMPORTANTLY- I will show you how to apply the ideas
and be there to help answer your questions.

What do you think?

Brian
