2. Star of the Week
*************************************************************

This week's Star of the Week is Mandy Pratt. In 2003 she decided to
hire Eric to coach her because it was either that or quit a career
she was determined to succeed in. She literally had 2 months of
line of credit to use, and if nothing changed She’d be begging for
money and looking for a new job. She was scared, but determined to change.
According to Mandy, "That was one of the best financial decisions I ever
made." Within 6 weeks of hiring Eric she went from average $2k/month in
commission sales to $12k/month. Not $2k to $4k, no $2k to $12k!!
This boosted her confidence and belief in herself that she still benefits
from today.

In 2005 she hired Eric again to help her figure out her long-term career
plan, at that time she was lost and confused about her career direction.
Eric had a unique ability to see her talent, as well as her sabotaging
patterns that were holding her back. Within another few short months of
coaching Eric helped her “plant my flag” in being a Success Coach,
Speaker, and Author.

Today she is still benefiting and reaping the returns of investing in
Eric’s coaching, She has written 2 books, has a full coaching cliental,
and speaks professionally. If she had not hired Eric to coach her, she
knew her life would not be what it is today, and that makes her cringe
to even imagine. Mandy says, "If you have the opportunity to work with Eric,
even if you are scared, just do it. He has a rare ability to quickly recognize
what EXACTLY you need to change to be successful, and the heart to help
you follow through and change it."

Online Marketing Secrets: How to Market your Business Online

vanessa_summersWhat steps are you taking to market your business online? Online marketing is essential to creating an endless stream of leads to fuel your sales. Eric Lofholm is a firm believer in the need to increase your presence on the web. Over the last few months, he has launched a new website, launched a portal web page, started 2 new blogs on sales training and sales script writing, and has developed a following on Twitter.

What can you do to increase your online marketing efforts?

Do you have a website with your products or services? Is the world beating a path to your door or have you merely added another set of fixed monthly costs that consume little profit you have left at the end of the month?

According to Online Marketing Expert Vanessa Summers, "If you are willing to innovate and adapt to the way business is done today, you will lead your industry."

Do you have a systematic process on how to market and run your business? Are you receiving the results you want?

You Need to Innovate and Adapt to the Way Business is Done Today!

If not, then you need to make a shift. The key to make a shift is to discover how to leverage your skills, business experience, and knowledge using your website, blog, e-mail, video, and social media.
