Develop A USP

But – What is a USP?

If you don’t know the answer to this question, you’re business is in serious trouble! Again, an entire book can be written on this subject (many have been).

Your “USP” is your “Unique Selling Perspective”. In other words…Why is your business Unique? What does your business possess that separates it from the rest of your competition? Why should a customer buy from you instead of your competition? What do you offer your customers that your competition doesn’t?

Here’s a good example…. Amazingly enough, a once failing pizza shop used the power of a strong USP to turn their struggling business into an empire. They decided to become unique and capitalize on one specific aspect of their business that no one else had yet capitalized on. Once they did, their profits soared!

Who is this pizza shop? The Answer? A very well known – Internationally Recognised Name NOW but I can’t tell you in the article – (considered as advertising & forbidden.)

So, how did they turn their business around? With a simple, clever, slogan combined with a USP…. Delivered Hot And Fresh In 30 Minutes Or Less… OR IT’S FREE! The young owner of this Pizza Business didn’t capitalize on fresh ingredients, the ripest tomatoes, 5 different cheeses, or special offers…. Everyone else was already doing that! This “college student” realized where the need was and hammered home his simple message! What did folks want from a pizza place? They wanted their pizza FAST! This simple slogan and USP alone turned a once failing business into a MEGA MILLION DOLLAR FRANCHISE!

Don’t Sell Products… Sell Content – This may sound a bit strange… After all, you’re in business to make money, right? Absolutely! You want the sale…Right? Of course! But just as I touched on this same issue previously, the best way to sell a customer is by first gaining their trust and reassuring them that by making a purchase from you, it will be a decision they won’t regret. The only way to really do this effectively is by pre-selling. Yes, you want your website visitors to ultimately click the “Buy Now” button on your website, but you only want them to do so AFTER they’ve come to know your business and respect you as a business professional.

So why not put some articles or valuable content on your website that will interest readers in your niche’ market? For example…..

— Offer free downloads for visitors to read at their leisure.

— Get them to sign up for your newsletter so you can stay in touch.

— Place a web poll on your site to get visitors involved – make sure the questions relate to your site’s theme

— Put a feedback form on your website for readers to offer their suggestions

— Put a testimonials page up to show your visitors how much previous buyers enjoyed their shopping experience

— Offer a “Shopping Tips” or “Helpful Hints” page to give your visitors something of value for free

You may have stumbled upon Zrii around on the internet lately. It is a multi-level marketing company that originated in Utah in October 2007 so it is moderately new. Being an mlm company it runs through a network marketing business model, employing direct sales as a main tactic.

The product Zrii is marketed as a “super juice,” with owners of the company affirming that it will deliver “rejuvenation, health and vitality” into the lives of those who drink it. The juice was created after doctors conceptualized the power of mixing together seven fruits and herbs. It is pronounced as all natural, preservative-free and safe for everyone of all ages.

Its marketing plan says that it will provide both vitality and energy to those who drink it. The marketing plan claims that the daily recommended intake of this juice is between one and three ounces, and as expected, the company suggests that the average person drink three ounces a day. This would bring the cost to about $125, not including the shipping per month.

To add to the marketing plan, this juice has also been endorsed by the well-known Chopra Center for Well Being. Clearly the owners of the juice would like consumers to believe it is healthy. The company named the model that determines how much money people can make from selling the juice the “Prosperity Plan.”

It is a unilevel compensation plan with nine levels, meaning that you can have several people under you as your downline. When your downline completes a sale, you will get a small percentage of their profit. This compensation model requires three legs, and it is particularly difficult because the structure has to be very specific and just right in order to make a substantial income.

Such information conveys that this company is not the typical scam. You can make money from it, though obviously you must be good at sales to do so. There is a lot of competition right now in the world of “super juices,” making it that much more difficult to sell the product.

Even the company’s persistent efforts to market it as a health product, pointing out its benefits, it often gets lumped into the same category as other juices on the market. If you are up for the challenge of trying to market this product by using mlm tactics, you have some hard work ahead of you.

It can be done, but this product is not a ticket to fast money by any means. Just be prepared if you decide to do it.

It is vital that insurance salespeople have a steady stream of leads. Often, people dont even know about a particular type on insurance and it is up to a salesperson to explain it to them. The salespeople must have good leads in order to know who may be more open to purchasing certain types of insurance.

Insurance lead generation is done in a couple of ways. One common strategy is the use of a list service. A list compiling company generates the leads by gathering extensive information on people and then selling either the entire list or individual leads to the insurance salesperson. Insurance companies also offer free quotes in order to create awareness and interest in their services. Of course, advertising is another insurance lead generation technique.

List compiling services sell their lists to insurance companies. These lists often have pretty in depth information. For example, if someones address is located within a known flood area, the insurance salesperson could offer him or her flood insurance. The list services sell the leads in a number of ways. They sell the leads individually, sell the entire list once, or allow the insurance company to subscribe. When companies subscribe, they get a new list with fresh leads at certain time intervals.

Free quotes are a great form of insurance lead generation. People become interested in the prospect of saving money when the insurance company offers free appraisals and quotes. Often, the insurance company will offer their rates along with the rates of some of their competitors.

Advertisement is a major insurance lead generation technique. It seems that all media, including TV, radio, and print are flooded with ads for insurance companies. These ads create awareness and consumer interest in the company. These ads come in a variety of forms, from serious to comical.

Everyone needs some types of insurance. It is vital that insurance companies capitalize on the need that people have for insurance by capitalizing on leads. Insurance lead generation guarantees that the insurance salespeople have a steady stream of potential customers.
