Some times meeting the right people, securing the right financing and getting the job done right is not about what you know; rather it’s about who you know, especially if you know Phil Jones, President & Founder of the Presidential Inner Circle.

Stop Selling and Sell More!
by: Helen Connors-Groom
Successful companies have a secret. Sometimes you sell more by not selling. Strategic Marketing is a sport. By aligning the resources you already have, you can create a “magnetic network” that really can help you to sell more by not selling.
Take for example the man who sells firewood, in Arizona no less. Definitely a niche market, right? So how did he sell more… well actually he did it by not selling. Instead, he formed Strategic Marketing Alliances with the local Pool Builders & Backyard Remodeling Companies. They, well they didn’t really sell the firewood either. Instead they used it as a “Value-Added” incentive with every project they sold that included a fire pit or beehive fireplace, they included a year’s worth of firewood. Not a bad idea, and one that turned out to be a great advertising tool, referral generator, not to mention a win/win for everyone involved; the firewood company, the pool builders, the backyard re-modelers and most importantly the customers.
Another good example of selling more by not selling was when we owned Gazinka’s Backyard, a company specializing in very large expensive wooden play systems. We actually trained our sales staff not to sell, rather to ask lots of questions and orchestrate lots of referrals.

There are only 8 days left until MPI’s Meet Different 2010, which is being held, this year, in Cancun, Mexico. The event has always seemed very “left brain” in many respects, promising attendees “… better designs, more efficient practices and return on investment that’s clear and measureable.”
This year, however, the association is shaking off the cobwebs with several sessions that look at the future of the industry. In particular, you may want to check out One+ Magazine writer and editor, Jason Hensel’s take on what the event planner job of the future might look like:
Hologram Specialist —In a few years, let’s say less than 10, there will be a need for hologram specialists, people to work with and on holograms for meetings and events. In fact, there are already patents pending and trials taking place (e.g., Microsoft and Masergy Communications).
Director of Senses —Sense management and how to use it to amplify meetings and ROI will continue to grow in popularity and use.
