- No One Likes The Dark
By: martinchristovanzyl | - No one likes the dark
WHEN YOU ENTER A PITCH DARK ROOM the first thing you want to do is turn the light on. But wouldnt you rather have the room be well-lit when you enter? Of course you would.
When you leave your customers a message that says, Call me back, to them it feels like walking into a dark room. The same goes for letting somebody know there is phone for them, but not letting them know who it is. In effect, this means, be ready for anything!

Age old clichs, making unsubstantiated claims, a ... Tags: marketing, martin van zyl, advertising tips, predictable advertising, business success

- Listen Up. If You Want To Or Not!
By: martinchristovanzyl | - Listen Up. If you want to or NOT!

A nickel aint worth a dime anymore.
You can observe a lot by just watching.
My business is doing great, but my clients complain they hear my ads too much.
Ok that last one is not a famous saying but a true ... Tags: advertising tips, carbon copy pro, marketing advice, martin van zyl

- Listening To Jim
By: martinchristovanzyl | - Listening to Jim
JIM WAS AN OLD WAR VETERAN and liked his profanity.
How you can Listen
Born into a middle class family with too many children, Jim grew into a sour, salty old man.
When I was fourteen, Jim hired me to do some work at his steel yard. No self-respecting steelworker would be seen doing the work I was asked to. I was known as kid. Kid! Scrub the #&%@ washroom! Kid! Make sure the %* trucks are unloaded!

- Rules Of Encouragement
By: martinchristovanzyl | - Rules of Encouragement
WHEN I WAS THIRTEEN, I spent most Saturdays delivering a free news paper for a local press agency. It wasnt the most recognized edition; in fact it was pretty much the lowest grade paper out there.
Your Encouragement
My route consisted of the same old figure eight loop around the neighbourhood. But this loop did include one special house; number eighteen Carla Avenue.
This house was occupied by a kind older gentleman ... Tags: advertising tips, encouragement, marketing advice, martin van zyl, rules of encouragement
- Build Better Traffic
By: martinchristovanzyl | - Build Better Traffic
ID LIKE TO BUILD BETTER TRAFFIC. My favourite traffic builder involves three actors dressed up as policeman.
The first policeman stands on the street in front of your business directing all the oncoming cars into your parking lot. There the second cop points the cars into the parking spaces. The third cop stands at the front door and blows his whistle to direct people into your store.
When your store is fully packed, the three ... Tags: advertising tips, build better traffic, marketing advice, martin van zyl, success coach, build traffic

By: martinchristovanzyl | - Leave Something on the Table
JOHN AND JENNIFER ARE NEGOTIATING. Jennifer is pushing to suck every last drop out of the deal. She smiles and excuses herself by saying, I just wanted to make sure I dont leave anything on the table. You cant blame a girl for trying.
Yes, Jennifer, I can blame you. I can blame you for not allowing us both to win. I can blame you for never wanting to do business with you again. Thank you. I hope to never deal with you again an ... Tags: advertising tips, marketing advice, martin van zyl, negotiating, success coaching
- Highway To Advertising Hell
By: martinchristovanzyl | - Highway to Advertising Hell
So many of us always ask questions we already know the answers to. How can we feel better?
Your physician would say, Eat right and exercise.
Yet for every dollar spent in fitness centres, Americans spend nineteen dollars on cocaine. The reason? Two seconds after snorting cocaine, you feel like superman. Two weeks of diet and exercising and all you feel is sore and hungry.
Instant gratification is something we a ... Tags: success, martin van zyl, advertising tips, marketing advice, success coaching
