Corporate bullies in their ivory towers

When the Corporate Bullies Cry Foul

When the big corporate bullies cry foul over something you’re doing or selling, you and I, the little guy, don’t stand a chance.  Have you had this experience?  (Tell us about it in the comment section!)

I found this out several times during my years of selling on eBay.
Overall, selling on eBay was a pretty good experience, although I don’t do much of it any more. Their support staff was pretty good to me. They always went as far as they sometimes dared to help me.

But then there’s Amazon…

Amazon wasn’t nearly as helpful. Their service was so bad that I stopped selling on that platform. It wasn’t that their staff wasn’t nice. They were very nice, including the ones in China where their software error routed me for months, as they tried their best to understand and be understood. (They understand English much better than I understand Chinese, but that’s not saying much…)
What I found as a seller is that, first of all, it’s really difficult to sell anything if you’re not using a big platform with lots of traffic. Secondly, even the largest platforms like eBay cower before the really big multinationals (like the guys who sell the really, really popular and expensive smartphone, who are the biggest corporate bullies of all).

Autoresponders Automate Advertising

Autoresponders Automate Advertising. Okay… but what are they and how do I use them?

Autoresponders automate advertising.  Were you aware of that?  That is a fact that could make a huge difference to your online business, while freeing up a lot of time you may have been spending doing what they do.

What is an autoresponder?  The simple definition is:  An autoresponder is a tool that automatically sends out email messages according to the parameters programmed into it.

Don’t be afraid

If the description sounds a little technical, fear not. Unless you’re a die-hard techie with lots of time, you’ll use an autoresponder system that’s already set up. The simplest one you’ll ever use is the one that comes with your email program.

While you can use it to send ads to everyone who emails you (which is a terrible idea), it would normally be used to acknowledge receipt of a message when you’re not there to read or answer it (commonly called a Vacation Response).

All you do is type in the message you want to be sent out, save it, and you’re done. Once you turn it on, it sends out your message to anyone who sends an email to you at that address.Read More »Autoresponders Automate Advertising

Customer support can be pretty maddening when you need help, especially if you have a “situation” going.  Has this ever happened to you?

Here’s my experience. This is actually very typical when dealing with customer support with many companies.  

Today… I finally got a Customer Support Manager. Have you ever had a tough time trying to get help from the support people?  Yep.  From many companies, you’ve probably noticed it can be a bit frustrating.  Or maybe a lot frustrating.  Are you feeling it?

Be patient! Here’s exactly how it works. I can tell you this from many years of experience dealing with customer support for MY customers. Plus, I’ve also been seated in the Customer Support chair. I understand what they go through, too.  Have you worked in this position?  It can be pretty thankless!

Customer Support is a crazy busy job. I Read More »Customer support – you Can get 1st Class Help with patience!

Ask for the Referral

Ask for the referral, your #1 Source of New Business Success

Ask for the referral when you make the sale!

Ask for the referral every time you make a sale.  There is no better way to find your next client.  Referrals are what salesmen call “hot prospects.”  That’s because, unlike so-called “cold calling,” you have an “in” with a referral.  It’s almost like being introduced at a meeting or party…

Ask for the Referral to Make More Money

Let’s face it.  No matter what anybody tells you, selling can easily be hard work, whether you’re doing affiliate marketing on the internet, or network marketing, or selling woven cedar baskets by the side of the road.

You need to get your product or service in front of people who are looking for your product or service or who you can convince they need your product or service and are willing to pay money to get it.Read More »Ask for the referral, your #1 Source of New Business Success
