Wednesday Words
To Go Where Your VisionPoints, a few inspiration points for you and your business.
You’ve got to look for a gap, where competitors in a market have grown lazy and lost contact with the readers or the viewers.
—Rupert Murdoch
Staying above the fray, media-mogul-style. The harder you think about this one the more you’ll say, Yeah. I know just how we can do that. Make contact where others have forgotten how. You know the market’s there, waiting, underserved.
Grow and be well,
Kelly Erickson

That’s good. That’s such a useful point that you’ve made. In only a few sentences you’ve got me thinking and looking around for these areas. Thanks Kelly!

That’s always the trick, isn’t it. That’s how you win in business, in war, in love perhaps
Look for the gap. There is always another angle, too. If you can’t see it from here, step two feet to the left, and stand on your toes.

Brett,
Is that where I go wrong in love? LOL.
There’s always another angle. That’s a great point. I suspect it has a bit to do with why I can always come up with another post for MCE, too!
Until later,
Kelly

Kelly,
Of course! Though some might think I was trying to be silly when I said “look for the gap” with respect to love (dirty minds!), there’s always a different way to meet someone who you fancy. To get their attention, etc.
(Or spread rumours about their current S.O. until they dump that person, then move in heh heh)

Taking this advice to heart, going in search of a new way to meet the person I fancy…
I never know what I’ll get myself into here on Wednesdays.
Later,
Kelly

I recently got a very clear message on this about forums – how my habit of answering people’s posts on my new Accountability Clinic forum like I do with comments fills a gap that almost every other forum I’ve seen out there.

Alex,
That’s tough to do—stay in touch as you grow—but in a business like yours it must be such a relief to people to see that you are *really* on their side, listening to them. Having looked around recently and noticed a lot of coldness in what should be a very personal field, I do believe that can generate a lot of loyalty for you.
Until later,
Kelly
