Added for You - Create a Connection with Retail Store Displays
Are you working with the same level of client you were a year ago? How about the same type of client as two years ago? If the answer is "yes" then it's time to look at moving "up-market."Moving up-market means you either offer more comprehensive (read, more expensive) services to your existing clients or you up-shift to a higher end clientele.Why? Because the people you work with are a lot like a fish tank...and you're the fish. The bigger the tank, the bigger the fish. For you to build a bigger, higher income business means you need a bigger tank.Here are two key u

During my many years of lecturing university business school students on entrepreneurial topics I have been pleased, and surprised, at the relatively large numbers willing to take the plunge and pursue new business opportunities. The surprise is that modern students are willing to forego a corporate job right out of school; a job that for so many has been a pre-occupation (and the dream of tuition strapped parents). Choosing a major course of study, a syllabus and internships in many cases are structured solely to enhance and magnify qualifications deemed necessary to excite future corporate
The window displays are likely your only chance at capturing the attention of a passing customer that was otherwise not planning on visiting your store. This may seem second nature at first - but it really works! Below is a real life example from this past weekend.
I was in the local mall, shopping for birthday presents for my son. Normally I avoide malls like the plague - however this time I was forced into one as I had a specific demand from my son to fulfill. He wanted the new Lego Star Wars II video game that just came out this week. I had no idea how immensely popular this game was. After trips to all of the local big box retailers - with no luck as they were all sold out and the next order wasn't due in until it was too late - I was faced with a dilemma. Either try to explain to a nine year old on his birthday that the stores were sold out of the one thing he wanted more than anything, but that he would get it soon...or go to the mall in a last ditch effort to find the treasure. Picturing the crestfallen look on my son's face as I tried to explain the absence of the desired gift, it was an easy choice. To the mall I went.
I was a man with a mission - get in, grab the goods, and get out as quickly as possible, with a minimum amount of time expenditure. After all, it was Saturday and there was college football to watch! I found the video game at a small specialty gaming store in the mall. They had a handful of them left. Jubilant, I left the store and began the racewalk to the mall entrance.

Just when I thought frequency marketing plans had peaked, I was hustled for 2 more, in one day.Concluding a purchase at the local garden supply store, the cheery clerk asked if I wanted one of their cards.“You can earn a twenty dollar certificate!”I thought she meant right away, instantly, as a thank-you for signing-up, a benefit that I could use for seeds or lawn topper.“All you have to do is acquire 100 points,” she continued breathlessly, “And let’s see, your $26 purchase today qualifies for, uh, one point.”One measly point?Are you telling me I ha

You are excited, it's a new business day! You glance at your business plan on the pin board in front of you. A shiver of excitement races up your spine as you think of your business potential. Just 8 hours a day on this plan will mean a better life for you and your family, all within 2 years. Then the phone rings…It's a customer! They are enquiring about that widget they bought from you yesterday.Will it do x and y?So you explain that it will do x and y. And because you are focused on providing the ultimate customer service, you talk them through the steps on the phone. A
As I sped by a men's store, I noticed a very handsome, hip, and sleek brown suede leather jacket in the window. I kept walking, but found myself thinking about how cool that leather jacket looked. About twenty steps later I could not take it any more. I stopped dead in my tracks and began to argue with myself about whether or not I should go back. I couldn't stand it - just one more quick look - then on to football. I turned around and went back to the window where I saw the leather jacket. I admired how nice it looked on the mannequin, and at this point noticed not only the jacket but the sharp sweater underneath the jacket, and the polo underneath the sweater. I noticed how nicely the browns and yellows and reds in the store display went together - a perfect combination of fall colors to adorn the upwardly mobile and hip professional man.
At this point I actually became cognizant of what was happening - I realized the store display was working its psychological magic on me - yet nonetheless I fully appreciated the message this store display was sending to me, and the look that it was projecting. I wanted that look. I wanted to look like that. So I entered the store - which I never would have done otherwise (I was there for a children's video game, remember?) - just to try the jacket on.
Of course the jacket fit wonderfully and looked great in the mirror. Okay, Mr. Salesman, I'll take the jacket. A steal at $119.00.
