Relationship Marketing Secrets Ignore Rejection And Keep Moving Forward
- 0 Comments
Nobody likes rejection or criticism.
It absolutely terrifies most people and that’s why many of them will never get anywhere in business or in life. No matter what you do you run the risk of being criticized or rejected by other people.
Every single time you create an article, newsletter, eCourse or report you put yourself in a position for someone to criticize you. That one fact alone stops most people in their tracks before they can even start because everybody (on some level) wants to be accepted.
Not everyone is going to like what you put out there so you need to come to terms with that right now and understand that you’re not alone. Even the gurus get a little nervous when they release something to the masses. You just have to be willing to push through that fear.
You’ll soon start to realize (as I did) that the majority of people will appreciate your efforts and look to encourage you on to bigger and better things. Forget the losers who have nothing better to do than to tear someone else down so they can feel taller.
Success comes to those who plan for it and are bold enough to go after it no matter who stands in their way. Plan for success then boldly move forward with your plan no matter what.
I’m not the greatest writer in the world but at the same time, I don’t ask anyone for permission to write and be successful at it.
Don’t ask for permission to succeed and don’t worry about how people will react to your work. As long as you take the time to make sure you do your best, you have reason to be proud of yourself.
Everyone had to start somewhere and the people who would criticize you the harshest only want to keep you down so you don’t ever develop the skills needed to compete with them. Ignore them and keep moving forward towards your goals.
Never let anyone take your accomplishments (big or
small) away from you. Just keep moving forward.
The Power Of Perception Is A Powerful Tool. It’s Your Responsibility To Use It Wisely
You’ve probably heard the saying… “You never get a second chance to make a good first impression” and it’s very true.
The first contact you have with someone is sometimes your only chance to get them to see you as you want to be seen so it’s critically important that you put some thought into that first contact.
What people believe is true is the truth as far as they’re concerned. That being the case, your job is to influence (right from the start) what people think the truth is.
Some of the people I’ve shared this view with say it’s unethical to try and make people believe something that isn’t necessarily true and I agree because that’s not what I’m asking you to do.
I’m asking you to actually have honest intentions with people and take measured steps to make them see those intentions where they would normally assume something bad. Never let people assume something about you. Let them know what you want them to know upfront so it’s easier for them to let their guard down around you.
Just think about it.
How many promotional emails have you gotten this week about some new product? How many of those publishers routinely send you helpful information without trying to make a sales pitch?
Not many.
Whenever you see who some emails are from you automatically know it’s a sales pitch and your guard goes up. You aren’t likely to buy from that person when this happens.
That’s why I stress the need to send your readers more than a flood of affiliate links. That’s a big key to getting more people to buy from you right there. If you write a report about doing something specific and get people excited about it, they’ll want to buy a product that helps them do what you just got them excited about doing.
Anything you can do to distance yourself from competitors like that can only help you make more money. Your readers expect you to be like everyone else. Don’t be.
You have no excuse for continuing to do what you’ve always done and getting yourself lumped into a pile with the rest of your competitors. You know better. You know what steps to take. All that’s left is for you to make a decision right now to take action on them.
To your success!
