Everyday you must make time to do some (brace yourself) cold calling. Yes cold calling. If you don’t tell people what you are up to how do you expect them to know? Cold calling is a struggle for lots of people. Here are a few pointers to get the ball rolling to appointment setting success.

April 1, 2009 | Ask for the Sale
It seems that many of you have some reservations when it comes to marketing your Cash Machine and asking for the money. You’re not alone. Sales and marketing will be a huge part of getting your idea off the ground. If the idea of giving a sales presentation is daunting to you, there are a few things you can do to make it easier on yourself.

First and foremost — relax. Your attitude and demeanor is the first thing your potential client will notice. So stay calm and assuring. You’re the expert. Know your product or service like the back of your hand.

March 25, 2009 | Who Can Help You Get There?
At the close of last week’s article I stressed the importance of having to step out of your comfort zone and try new things. I’m sure there were plenty of shudders when I mentioned having to get out there and market yourself and your Cash Machine. It’s true that at first you may have to wear many hats to get things started on the road to success but this doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t be thinking about and shaping your Wealth Team.

March 19, 2009 | What Do You Want?
Last week we talked about the two kinds of people;

1.) The Creators, Generators, Expanders
2.) The Restrictors, Dieters

I hope it got you thinking about what kind of person you are. Lot’s of people see themselves as a Creator, Generator, Expander but continually fall back into the Restrictor Dieter pattern.

So what can you do to make sure you don’t fall into defeating patterns?

February 12, 2009 | Make Real Estate Your Cash Machine
Considering the turmoil in the market, you may be tempted to back off, or stay away from investing in real estate.

That’s understandable.

Even some seasoned real estate investors have made that choice. Interest rates are up, housing sales are down, many properties are still overvalued - you name it, there’s a lot of doom and gloom in the news out there.

January 22, 2009 | A Call To Action
Today, we as American’s witnessed yet another profound historical event. It was a day that signifies growth, change, ingenuity, and unity.

Regardless of your political preferences these are qualities that are at the core of every entrepreneur. All politics aside I was moved like every other American, by the words of a charismatic man, President Obama. As I listened to his first address as President I couldn’t help but find similarities of true entrepreneurialism.

January 7, 2009 | 2009 is the Year of the Cash Machine™
The New Year is upon us! You know what that means… prediction time!

I don’t put much weight in predictions since, as we’ve all been seeing from previous years, things are unpredictable. New variations of new situations arise on an almost constant plane. And as much as I try to steer clear of predictions one trend is dead on…

December 4, 2008 | Rewrite your story
In times of economic uncertainty people tend to reexamine their relationship with money.

Those that are avid wealth builders make the necessary adjustments and keep treading water. For those caught in a “make spend” cycle these can be very scary times splashing about without a life preserver.
