Become a master negotiator in 4 easy steps. Really.
Negotiation is important and happens in different formats. Face to face, over the phone, to a group and on a website.
You need to become a master negotiator to become really successful in business and have a lot of fun while you sell.
The negotiation process has 4 stages. Believe me this stages happen all the time no matter how you are selling- talking to people or the copy of a website.
1. Find the broken windows.- Find (or if you are writing- assume)the real problems going in the mind of your prospect. It might not be what they think it is.
2. Join the Tango. After you know the problems, you know there is drama involved and you join the tango or the conversation going in their minds. This will create a connection with your prospects.
3. Incorporate mystery and rituals. You need to leave some unanswered questions and show your structure. This keeps the mind hooked to you.
4. Extract the wow. Just like in infomercials there needs to be a wow moment. Here you show the possibilities.
5. Tie the know. Here is where the deal gets done, you create a partnership with your prospect. If you do all of the above right, you don’t need to ask for the sale, but if the prospect doesn’t propose, it is up to you my dear to do so.

Cool business ideas with continuity income
There’s no shortage of efforts bringing more sustainable and transparent food alternatives to consumers. Now, New York-based Farm to Baby NYC is specifically targeting parents with a subscription-based service offering organic baby food.
To begin using the service, parents based in New York can log onto the Farm to Baby NYC website and order a range of seasonal produce – from hubbard squash to parsnips and spinach – sourced from farms in the local area. Customers can sign up for either Half Membership, which offers four 10-ounce pots per week for USD 55, or Full Membership, which includes eight 10-ounce pots per week for USD 99. The glass pots are collected by Farm to Baby NYC for re-use. The service currently uses Gorzynski Ornery Farm and W. Rogowski Farm in New York and Phillips Farms in New Jersey, ensuring a low carbon footprint and supporting these local businesses.
We’ve covered numerous subscription-based services on Springwise in the past, but by adding some (still) made here appeal to the model, Farm to Baby NYC have also boosted their green-credentials. An idea ripe for exporting to other parts of the world?

Marketing to female boomers
Read this research the other day and found it very interesting:
Boomer women when asked what they like to get as a gift:
one third would like a charitable donation in their name.
20% the newest electronic device
18% jewelry or clothing
12% books
24% other- like cooking stuff
0% WINE, FLOWERS OR FRUITS
Even though boomer women like wine, flowers or fruits they don’t want to be seen as “the older women that get fruit baskets”
Guys out there, don’t say you were not advised.
