people who may be interested in your service. You use the longer version for your website. Make sure your site has an 800 number and or order page. This way you are making it as easy as possible for perspective clients which are the point you are trying to make. Share past experience where you have helped clients to overcome a particular challenge and how with your help they overcame it. Share other information that will be important to your client’s success. Some elect to do mini talks to local organizations. This is a good way to sell yourself. Make sure to collect any e-mail addresses that you get from a free report that you may have handed out past or present. Another helpful hint is to write a short e-book. It doesn’t have to be novel just make it just the way most people want it short and precise. Most people want to get to the information that they need and not go through a bunch of non related stories. A book coach can help you with this they can help you put your compelling chapters in order and organized it properly. This will make it more salable and possibly make your clients to want to read it cover to cover.
