Reclaiming Your Power In Business

Have you lost your power in business? No, I don’t mean “are you weak in business”…. Listening to Jenny Leather, a Melbourne born and bred Mother of 3, on the Stretch Your Mind And Body Talk today, I wondered how many of us have let go of our power, or put our power in the hands of others.

Jenny is a successful property investor who found that the old adage “It’s easy to make your first million, it’s not so easy to keep it” is true.

When Jenny and husband first experienced wealth generation, they handed the management of that money over to someone else. This was not necessarily the best thing to do – and Jenny shared that it was like handing over you power to someone else. Read more

I remember hearing once that you should be the ‘general of your army’ and not a soldier (I think it was Mark Hendricks from Internet Success Systems that said that).  What seems to happen though is that we try to be all the soldiers!

Now this has several effects – the main one being that we rarely get anything done WELL.  We’ll get things done – but we are typically so strung out that we just do whatever we can to finish the job.  The other thing that seems to happen is that we are tired and ill – a lot!

For those business people fortunate enough to have staff and contractors – trying to be the soliders instead of the general only annoys them – because we end up doing their job instead of ours. Read more

Once you’ve defined your target audience, you need to start talking to them.  This is possibly the one thing that really trips business people and affiliate marketers up – just where and how do you talk to your target audience and get them to visit your site?

The answer is quite simple really – but it does take dedication and time to achieve.

You need to interact in the places that your Target Audience is.  I’m going to talk in the sense of an online business for this article, but the principles are the same for an offline business as well.

Let’s look at speaking directly to a target audience who want to teach their bird to sing.  Think about where these people may be looking for the ‘answer to their question’.

In this article, I am going to discuss places where you can find your Target Audience and help them get to ‘Know You, Like You and Trust You’. Read more
