Events: Creating a Buzz with Your Marketing
|
|
worddiva writes " by Andrea C. Carrero
To Mark Hughes, "buzz marketing" is more than just thinking outside of the box. It's thinking outside of the box and getting people to talk about it.
Hughes, CEO of Buzzmarketing.com, was the guest speaker at the March 10, 2005 Unit of 1 Breakfast Club meeting in Conshohocken, PA. Marketing, he said, needs to "follow more than a traditional path. It needs to be entertaining, fascinating and newsworthy.""

Events: Moving Through Resistance: Breakfast Club Meeting
|

worddiva writes "Moving Through Resistance
Tuesday, November 12, 8:00am to 10:30am
Eastern University - 1300 Eagle Road, Saint Davids, PA
Join us for the November Breakfast Club Meeting, where our speaker, Tricia Steege, will guide us through an interactive session on the topic "Moving Through Resistance."
Often times we want to run from resistance. However, frequently it provides valuable information that can be used to deliver better results for your client and yourself.
Through a highly facilitated discussion Tricia will assist us in developing our own "moving through resistance" plans. Come away from the session with the ability to use resistance in a positive way. Some of the topics include:
- Identifying what resistance is and when it occurs in the consulting cycle.
- Moving the client through their resistance and coming out on the positive side.
- Learning the skills to deal with resistance before it derails you.

Events: 9/10/02 Breakfast Club: Winning Business- Traps and Pitfalls as a Consultant
|

amichalek writes "Are you having trouble evaluating which business opportunities are real?
Do prospective clients call you in, ask you lots of questions, distance themselves, and then steal your ideas?
Are you so excited to tell a client what you can do for them that you spend two hours and tell them everything without charging them?
Are you working too hard and too long on opportunities that just "never quite get there?"
Does a potential piece of business suck up a lot of your resources for a month or two (or longer!), only to fizzle out because the client ultimately did not have a budget for it anyway, or the budget "went away?"
Do you seem to be working on an ever-changing set of requirements?
Is running after business costing you more than it's worth?
Learn how to be more savvy about who you pursue as a client, how you analyze a particular potential piece of business, and how to turn it into a contract in less time. Once inside an account, most consultants are also leaving business on the table, and don't even know it! Take advantage of some simple tips for exploring the full potential with a client.
Kristin Linder, theLINDERgroup has been advising clients on these problems for years - and she's a consultant herself. Kristin has spent most of her 20+ years career in the global hi-tech environment, working in sales, or consulting with high-tech consultants, sales and management. Hi-tech sales frequently are complex and require long sales cycles. She works with a variety of clients whose goals are all the same - understanding the client and their business in greater depth, turning that information into a contract - in less time and increasing long term client retention.

Press Release
T.C. ?Mac? McDonnell, ARM, CPCU, AIS to
be featured speaker at September meeting of MidAtlantic Consultants Network
Woodbury, NJ - August 19, 2002: Mac McDonnell will deliver the
kick-off session for the MidAtlantic Consultants Network on September 9th. The session will be held at Villanova
University, details below:
MEETING DATE:
Monday, Sept. 9th, 2002, 7:30: a.m. to 9:00 a.m.
LOCATION:
Villanova University's Bartley Hall (College of Commerce and Finance),
Room 1011 (amphitheatre)
SPEAKER:
T.C. "Mac" McDonnell, President
McDonnell Consulting
?
TOPIC:
Values that a Successful Business Must Deliver to Customers and the
Impact that Accidents/Losses Have on these Variables
SPONSOR:
James F. Mitchell, III, Babb, Inc.
There are many things
that can negatively affect an organization?s ability to deliver its product or
service. Disabling injuries to key
workers, a major fire or negative treatments in the press are just a few of them.
Mac believes that for an organization to achieve success, it must strike a
proper balance between all of the key demands on the organization. It is a fact that most organizational
improvements require change and in many cases this change is significant. Mac
has over 30 years experience in accident prevention and control and more than
20 years experience as a manager of change (both line and staff positions).
Time served concurrently. He plans to:
provide participants with greater insight into the internal cost of accidents,
propose a more comprehensive business objective and share the 4-step process to
changing behavior, which has been useful to him for many years."
