    Phone sales vs Face-to-Face sales

    MARKETING 
    What I am really saying here is that the OP question is seriously flawed. The product, the price, the consumer, the lead qualification process, how do you demonstrate what it does, all have an affect on what is going to be the best sales technique.

    Phone sales vs Face-to-Face sales

    MARKETING 
    I would need to look at the whole process, but if you have called to schedule a meeting, then your phone call sale was the meeting, which may or may not close at a higher rate and regardless, you have added an extra step, (phone call to schedule + Meeting + Close vs. Phone call + close)...

    Automated Marketing - Mautic

    MARKETING 
    This does NOT have built in CRM, but can move leads into your CRM (some CRM packages), it does interface to Mail Chimp (and a few other email providers). Super easy to build forms that can be set to automatically email response with an attachment or link, it can build landing pages, then all...

    Automated Marketing - Mautic

    MARKETING 
    Over the weekend I installed the http://Mautic.org software (open source) on one of my sites to see how it rolls. I spent about 7 hours going from 0 to server installation, configuring and setup, adding emails, creating campaigns, designing 2 forms and replacing the old ones from my site and...

    Creating a content based website

    EXECUTION 
    Look, the mechanics of picking a host,setting up wordpress, and finding a template and installing it is no harder than the powerpoint or evernote presentation you had to do in high school. You are learning nothing from this experience. Your market, is more on Facebook and Twitter, so if you...

    Discussion on "Grow first, monetize later" philosophy

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Snapchat/Twitter/Facebook has a market that is virtually EVERYONE in the world with an Internet connection. So comparing that to any kind of niche is just not intelligent thinking. Throwing B2B into the mix really limits it as well, and then getting businesses to rely on a product with no...

    Creating a content based website

    EXECUTION 
    Nobody on this thread is advocating a shitty product. You should have a product that provides real value, by doing that, it gives you the ability to buy traffic and turn a profit much quicker than counting on your 100 unique visitors a month to generate you any cash flow. How does a few...

    Creating a Membership Site - Looking for Technical Info

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I will second that Wishlist Member is great. Amember.com is very good if you need to get outside of Wordpress, it is kind of like Drupal from the standpoint it can be a PITA, but it can also be AWESOME.

    Can't get my head around what to properly search for, but what I have found is not what I want.... Needs to be able to be: Self service entry of an offer by many businesses ( like a classified ad) Ability to sort out offers by Geo targeting (like Groupon) to consumer visitors Purchase on the...

    You said "anything"..... What is the best lead generation website/app/platform on the Internet for personal trainers? Do you pay for leads? If so how much? What is your average stick rate with a client? How many prospects only come to one appointment never to return?

    To Put Prices on a Website or Not - Service Business

    MARKETING 
    In your business you know that it takes a certain number of sessions per week to see any success and since you are looking for more long term clients I would give them a monthly budget range. Right off the top of my head: I am committed to helping you reach your goals, but commitment in...

    WTF??? You think that process of selling has gotten more complicated since 2001? This is clearly a situation of you don't know what you don't know. I have not given anyone the advice to give up. What I have been saying all along is do it smarter. There is no law of entry here, go on Elance...

    So ... who's in B2B?

    HOT! 
    It doesn't matter what you are selling, software, widgets, business processes, or office supplies, it is still selling to a business. Make sure you can demonstrate your value, a ROI of equipment or software should be less than 3 years.

    Learning to Program is STUPID! (or SMART?!)

    GOLD! HOT! 
    No, but when you head down a road that very knowledgeable people tell you is a dead end or vastly more difficult than you perceive it to be, don't be surprised when you hit a dead end. And don't make crap up and tell everyone that is an alternative.

    Learning to Program is STUPID! (or SMART?!)

    GOLD! HOT! 
    The speed of advancement is hard to grasp. If you go back 2-3 years in time, responsive frameworks were either very new or unheard of, big data, hadoop, and cloud based architectures didn't really exist. Go find a post that is 3 years old on designing for mobile devices and compare that to...
