The 3 Keys to Ultimate Business Sucess (Key 2)

2. Relationships

Your biggest competitive advantage isn’t the quality of your products or services; it’s the number and strength of the relationships you have with prospects and clients. It’s the amount of confidence you command. So, where should your marketing be focused?

Focus 80-90% of your marketing efforts on relationship-building activities.

Typically, most marketing is aimed at getting the sale, not at building relationships or confidence. Big mistake! People need to first know you and trust you before they’ll buy from you. They need to be sure you’re the best company to buy from, and your product or service does what you say it does. Where confidence flows, money follows.

How do you gain someone’s confidence so he or she will buy from you? You help them get to know you through repeated contacts and demonstration of your expertise.

The Value of Self-Reflection

A Greek philosopher once said “An unexamined life is not worth living”.

Self reflection is the time we take out in our daily life to reflect on ourselves. We need to self reflect on our weaknesses, strengths, habits, our relationships and how we deal with other people in our lives.

Let’s look at some tools that can help us reflect on our knowledge and resources. Developing a habit of positive self reflection can improve your productivity and constructive actions.

It also improves your chances of being successful.

Transform Your Thinking
Your thinking can maximize your strengths and minimize your weaknesses. The art of self reflection is the innate ability to look inside your self and to act accordingly.

It is not self criticism.

It must be a positive activity bringing you closer to your true self and enhancing your natural characteristics. You can achieve any goal you set out to achieve if you reflect upon and rehearse it in your mind beforehand.

Positive reinforcement and visualization can aid your success.

Athletes use this technique where they visualize their chosen goal and reinforce this with disciplined training. Before you succeed in doing anything you should believe in it, to prepare for achieving it.
