Sample Extract of An Executive Guide to Managing Dress Code at Work Place

Say, what would you do with over 30% affiliate commissions across all our services and products? What if some of these commissions are recurring? Would you be able to make money recommending our products and services to those in need of great content?

Let’s take an example and explain it for you:

Take a look at our Blogging Services. We charge a retainer of $250 per month. Now, if you were to recommend this successfully for your friends or others who might need to succeed online, you would get a minimum of 20% commission on it, each month.

$250 x 20% = $50

Since blogging is a long-term contract, you will be paid $50 as long as the clients stay with us.

Our affiliate program has just been launched. Stay tuned for more developments on this front. Also note that I have blogging services, ebook writing services, report writing services, copywriting, article writing services, ghost writing services and much more.

Just image the amount of money you can make per month, most of these projects pay recurring to you.

What are you going to do with all that money?

Success means so many things for so many people and it possibly evokes strong reactions from different quarters, depending on how you relate to each of those people you are talking to. While success can be exhilarating for some people, it could be a tantalizing tease for some others. If you are still depending on conventional, this-is-from-the-classic-self-help-books advice, it’s time you understood why it won’t work for you:

• Your success isn’t my success: People are strikingly different. What success might mean to one person might not carry the same meaning for the other. If money and wealth creation could motivate someone, love and fame could be the motivating factor for another. How then could standard success advice dispensed through a motivational tape, self-help book or a motivational seminar suit everyone?
• Success is a moving target: Let’s assume that you are 25 years old and you are an ambitious person; you would have a fair idea as to what you want to achieve now. However, as years pass by, your idea of success might change. One of the reasons that happens is because of too many options available to you. Why take one route when there are more to take? Why go just south when you could go almost anywhere and still do what you want to do?
• The equation to success has more than just “you” in it: If achieving success was about rendering your services based on your competence and skills alone, it wouldn’t have been that hard to achieve it. Unfortunately, it isn’t just about you. No success is possible with just you in it. Success of any kind has involvement of others to some degree or the other. It isn’t enough to have technical skills to do a job well anymore; you got to know how to make people work for you or with you well.
• The Journey of thousand miles starts with a step and then something else: The road to success isn’t like adding up two numbers; it isn’t even close to pushing buttons to get what you want. There’s more to become successful than just taking action and getting started – although it’s a very important factor there. You got to start and stick with it. Meanwhile, you got to brandish all sorts of skills to survive in the game.

There’s this thing about services – once it goes wrong or if the client is unhappy for some reason, there is just no way to undo that. No service can last tumultuous business demands if it isn’t up to customers’ expectations or if customers aren’t happy with the services. There is a raging need to spice your service quality up and it is a never-ending process. Here’s how you can go about it:

• Serve with passion: One thing common in most businesses today is complete lack of passion. Putting up businesses or starting a business just for the sake of it or rendering a service without an ounce of life in it is a sure-shot recipe for disaster. Too many service businesses are run without passion; they lack character and the brand name is just reduced to that – a name. Bring that passion in; serve with a purpose. See how things change then.
• Customer is still the king: If you run the business for yourself, you are bound to shoot yourself on your feet. Your business wouldn’t last without your customers and no matter how clichéd it might seem, customer is still the king. The more customer-centric your business is, the more profitable it is bound to be. Too many entrepreneurs do the mistake of starting their businesses thinking that their products and services are incredible, great and infallible. If your customer doesn’t want it, you won’t sell a thing.
• Use technology: When technology is brought in, businesses can’t help but look, feel and work smart. Most parts of your business can be automated or semi-automated. Technology can help you manage many areas of your business more efficiently, accurately and quickly. If you aren’t using technology to make your services better, you haven’t crawled out of the rock you were under.
• Learn best practices: One of the best ways to learn how to serve well and with passion is to learn how big and successful companies do it consistently. Look at Fedex and Starbucks – their service is consistent, fair, delightful and unique. You will never see another courier company doing as well as Fedex and the Starbucks experience – complete with the ambience, coffee and the Wi-fi – can rarely be  replicated elsewhere. Learning from observation and applying these best practices is an amazing way to get it right.
• Take a delight check and do what’s necessary: When was the last time you did a delight check? A delight check is a sort of survey you take with your customers. You ask them pointed questions and take their feedback with a pinch of salt. You just don’t take feedback, but you act on it and do whatever is necessary to bring the ‘delight factor’ into your services.
