Added for You - Why One-Sheets are Must-Have Marketing Tools
Today I'd like to talk about the skill set required to start a business.

I have sat through many lectures, seminars, classes, and presentations on change. They are often different from one another and frequently present different theories on the need for change, the "x" steps to successful change, and how to overcome the obstacles to change. No matter how dynamic the instructor was, or how easy it was to follow the logic of the presentation, by the time I arrived back at my d
These questions become your opening to convey how you assist people and why you're the one experienced to do so. That's exactly what a marketing one-sheet does, too.
To convey that you're a must-have expert, your one-sheet needs to be written and designed effectively.
Answers Key Questions
Your one-sheet, in effect, succinctly answers these seven questions that decision makers would ask you in person at a first meeting:
1. How would you describe your area of expertise?
2. Whom do you work with and give presentations to?
3. What are the benefits of hiring you
-- for the leaders of the organization?
-- for the participants in the ranks?
-- for organizational progress?
4. What have you done that makes you an expert?
5. Which groups have you worked with before?
6. What did participants think of your contribution?
7. How can you be reached for more information?

Are you uncomfortable with delivering disciplinary action, even involving employees you know deserve it? You're not alone. Disciplinary action is one of the least favored tasks a supervisor must occasionally perform.Disciplining employees is so dreaded by so many supervisors that many look the other way when trouble develops, perhaps in the hope that the matter will correct itself. But most of the

Identify and fix the right root causes.Complicated problems have multiple root causes, probably more than you can handle all at once. The trick is to address the important causes first. Don’t waste time or money on causes that are either insignificant in impact or only peripheral causes of the problem you’re trying to fix.Root cause identification. Use an appropriate root caus

Even if you have all of these elements in place, what turns it into a stronger must-have piece that represents you? In a word: Personality.
For example my client, Doug Butler, is a speaker whose message is "Cowboy Wisdom." I've built his one-sheet around the western cowboy theme. This is all part of his brand. His one-sheet features cowboy graphics with lots of showmanship. I've included a color photo of him in action with a lasso and a portrait shot of him wearing a cowboy hat with his guitar. Other graphics include these cowboy symbols: a horse, a badge, a cowboy figure wearing a hat, bandana, and chaps-even a spurred cowboy boot. Its overall look reflects the personality that participants want from him, achieving that appeal through these special graphic effects.
Put Your Benefits in the Headlines
On Doug's one-sheet I have this headline: "Cowboy wisdom into the 21st century." Be sure to make your headlines bold and compelling.
