Profits in Progress

On the air with Sherese Johnson

On Oct 10th we did an hour interview with entrepreneur and talk show host Sherese Johnson where we talked about: How to break through to a decision maker, even if you are virtually unknown! Ways to incorporate handwritten notes into your marketing plan. How staying in touch can alleviate stress for your clients, and much more. The show on Global Talk Radio titled Women of Business – Real Woman, Real Business and Real Solutions was a great experience and can be heard in four segments on www.profitsinprogress.com or in its entirety on Global Talk Radio’s www.globaltalkradio.com/shows/realwomen/.

Etiquette Essentials

In her book, Business Class: Etiquette Essentials for Success at Work, Jacqueline Whitmore talks about writing a thank you note stating, “It takes just a few moments to write a brief thank-you note and there is a thousand-to-one return when you take the time to express your gratitude. People remember a thank you long after they have forgotten what they did for you.”

Along with handwritten notes, here are some other tools Ms. Whitmore suggests will make you a successful businessperson:

• Speak more professionally with a lower tone and no filler words
• Find out what you can about someone before the meeting
• Build a friendship and the sale will follow
• Send a late thank-you note rather than no note at all

This month families get together to spend time giving thanks for all their gifts bestowed to them from above. However, with all that we’ve been given, there are many in children who need our help and prayers. This month of November is National Adoption Month and whether the child is from the US or abroad, all children need parents who love them and are grateful they are here.
