Marketing Mistake #13
You think like an order-taker, not a marketer
by Mike Marchev
========================================================
Here is the fastest way to go out of business:
Wait for the phone to ring and then answer it.
Here is the surest way to maintain a growing business:
Make it your mission to make your phone ring.
“Making things happen” is an old saying that simply will not go out of vogue.
You want mail? Send more mail.
You want more calls? Make more calls.
You want more e-mails? Send more e-mails.
You want more action? Create more action.
After trying, I can’t make it any harder than that.
NOTE: Let me help you put the fun back into your business. Send me an email. mike@mikemarchev.com Ask about the benefits of joining my Inner Circle. Your success will not come by accident.
