The
Key to Retaining Clients
Michael
Beck,
Founder The
Insurance Coach
Have you experienced this scenario? You sell someone the
policy they need, but after a short time, they leave you.
It's one of the most frustrating things in our business.
In fact, rather than being a client, they've really become
a customer.
How
to Turn New Clients Into Loyal, Referring Fans in 90 Days
Robert Cobb
We've all heard the old adage "You never
get a second chance to make a good first
impression." The first few months after you
bring in a new client is the most crucial time in the
relationship. This is when you show new clients who you
are, how you value them, and what they can expect from
you.
Leaders
Behaving Badly
Dr. Linda J. Burrs
As a personal and professional coach, so much of what
I have been hearing about lately has to do with leaders
behaving badly. It seems time to address this issue from
the perspective of millions of employees who continue
to suffer injustices by these bad behaving leaders. It

overall is going dim in many instances. Perhaps it is
time to give voice to the many who work for leaders behaving
badly.

pretty well.
Building
A Better YOU & Marketing YOU!
Stan Hustad
(Sixth in a series of articles on personal growth
and performance improvement)
There is a simple story that I often tell in my
Coaching Experience Workshops. Three ducks are sitting
on a log. Two decide to jump in the lake. How many are
left on the log? Don't be, as most are, perplexed by the
simplicity and the seeming stupidity of the question.
It is a trick question.
The
Eight-Step Process To Better Asking
Mark Victor Hansen
In one of my earlier articles, "How To Ask
For Anything You Want," you learned that the world
responds to those who ask. When you begin to ask for what
you need and want, you've taken control of your life,
and are proactively steering its direction. Many wonderful
and great things come to you as a result.
