A Strategy for Attracting Higher Paying ClientSome people have little difficulty attracting and
maintaining higher paying clients. Others can't get to
first base. Higher paying clients consume less time,
exchange energy instead of zapping yours, have higher
regards for your relationship, give more referrals, pay on
time, and this in turn allows you to make higher profits.When asked how I recommend raising client’s fees, I answer
honestly, "It’s very difficult." Why? Let me share this
story, one I'm sure you can relate to. You go to the store
to buy more of something you like but you

This last series continues under the name Heirs Of Acadia, but Janette Oke was no longer one of the authors and it isn't nearly as popular. It's the Janette Oke name that sells these books.
Mrs. Oke also wrote a series of 12 early readers for children called Go Ask AliceOne of fiction's finest marketing minds, The Cheshire Cat,
once told Alice in Wonderland something all business owners
and marketers should remember:"If you don't care where you are going, it doesn't make a
difference which path you take."For businesses bent upon success, it does matter which path
you take. A positioning statement helps you chart your path
to success because it lets all your audiences - internal and
external - know where your organization stands in the battle
for your consumers' minds.Positioning: What Is It?
Janette Oke is a Christian writer whose books about life, love, values and faith have a huge following among women today. Each of her Christian books for adults falls into one of six different series she wrote. These are:
- Women Of The West
- Love Comes Softly
- Canadian West Saga
- Season Of The Heart
- A Prairie Legacy
- Song Of Acadia (the books in this series were written with T. Davis Dunn)
While they show up at FOL and AAUW book sales, they are most often found at garage sales. They won't find them at every garage or yard sale you visit, but spend a morning on the yard sale circuit and you should come home with several of her book and not have paid more than $.50 for any of them.
You will find a lot of these on eBay but nearly all are sold as single titles and that's a big mistake. In order to make the cash register ring for you with her books you should buy them individually or in groups, hold them until you have a complete series, and then sell the series as one auction.
All information and pricing is for soft-cover editions which are by far the most common.
Here's a list of the books that make up each series:
Women Of The West Series (12 books)
- The Calling Of Emily Evans *
- Julia's Last Hope

- A Gown Of Spanish Lace *

* These six titles were re-written, with the same titles, for young girls (age 10 - 14) and published as the Janette Oke Classics For Girls Series. When buying these six titles be sure to check which series the book actually belongs to.

Mrs. Oke also wrote a series of 12 early readers for children called Work Smart, Not HardI remember getting hired as an executive before opening my own advertising company. I worked for this guy who at the time I thought was a terrible manager. The truth is he happened to be one of the smartest managers I had ever met.Here’s why….He had very little advertising sales ability, and couldn’t close a sale if his life depended on it. What he did have however was the knack to hire the right people to do the job for him. What most of the employees did not know was he had talked his way into becoming an equal owner for no money down.
