Marketing tip, agree or disagree?

A famous sales trainer used to teach that the only difference between a good sales person and a con artist is that the good sales person delivers what is promised. They both use persuasion.

Someone on Twitter (if it was you, feel free to defend yourself with a comment here and a link to your URL) just suggested it's a good idea to tease with social media, save the "good stuff" for your site.

Yes, this is a powerful technique. But there is a problem. If your social media post is in the slightest misleading or if there is a problem with the connection, you may be creating a new connection on a poor foundation.

Trust is the most important ingredient in marketing. Don't loose trust with the first click.

That's how I see it, what do you think?

Today, who wants to start?

Are you trying to reach people who want to start a new business? Recent survey says that's 70+% of today's high school seniors. If so, we should talk when you have a minute.

I have a lot of traffic right now, maybe there is something we could do to help each other.

This is what I'm sending to some of the people who "Like" our SBCC Facebook Page:

"Thanks for the Like, now I hope you'll Join! :-) Go back to the Page you Liked www.Facebook.com/Small.Business.Chamber, then 'Visit Group' and join. If you have any questions give me a call, ok? John (303)861-1447"

Coworking in Denver?

"The visible growth of Denver’s small-business and freelancer economy has attracted big names like WeWork (which now operates three coworking spaces in Denver), Regus (currently operating 24 locations in the Denver metro area), Level Office, Industrious, and many others. However, nothing speaks more to the booming success of Colorado’s creative powerhouse than the multitude of local coworking hubs that cater to a wide variety of industries and occupations.

Why does John Wren do this?

I do this (online and in small groups) because I believe I've been given a direct command (along with trillions of others over the last 2000+ years) to 1) love God; 2) love my neighbor as myself, and 3) love my enemy (since that is almost always my neighbor, at least that's how it seems to me.) Seems to me that I'm being called to use the Internet for those purposes.

I try to not inflict my opinions on others except when I'm all in on something, and then especially loving the people
