"I really enjoyed the interview session with Christian Mickelsen. I listened intently to what he had to say on the recordings (thanks for doing this, Robert)...so I tried it this week.

"I gave a free session to the CEO of a local advertising agency. He received so much value that he couldn't wait to get started. Here's the kicker, I took the next step and upped my fee to $1,500/hour (also due to Christian's advice in the recordings I've listened to). And he bought it!

"On the tail of that, I signed up 2 companies for strategic planning retreats at $10K per day (each)...I know...I'm getting cocky now!"

The Art and Science of Telephone Follow-up Calls
Robert Middleton interviews Denise Clancey

Are you avoiding making telephone follow-up calls?

The follow-up call is the pivotal action between marketing and selling. Marketing warms up the selling process, but the follow-up call is the key action that furthers the business relationship and often secures an appointment. If you are struggling to make these calls, it's like putting the brakes on your marketing.

Follow-up calls need to be a central part of your marketing plan. No matter what marketing activities you do, follow-up calls need to be part of the equation. This audio program is a detailed, hands-on tutorial on how to make follow-up calls with less struggle and better results.

In this Action Plan Audio Program you'll learn the secrets of attracting the Right Clients and avoiding the Wrong Clients. You'll learn a tested and proven system to distinguish prospects who will waste your time and energy from prospects who will be great to work with and earn you substantial rewards.

All clients are not made equal. Some clients are great to work with, produce great results (with your assistance), and make you good money. But many clients will waste your time, are frustrating to work with, produce marginal results and bring in scanty financial rewards.

How can you know which are which before they become clients?

Free Sessions that Sell Your Services.

What if you had a bullet-proof process to turn more prospects into paying clients? This is it.

Once you've improved your marketing skills, it's easier to get the attention and interest of prospects, however setting up appointments with qualified prospects and turning them into clients can still be quite a challenge.

In this audio program I interview Christian Mickelsen, an expert on teaching coaches, consultants and other service professionals how to set up those appointments almost effortlessly, and then turn those prospects into paying clients. He calls it the "Free Sessions That Sell Your Services System," and you'll learn how to apply it step-by-step in your business.

"Beyond the Audio Logo"
Robert Middleton interviews "Toot Your Own Horn" author Peggy Klaus.

The essence of marketing is communication - it's sharing the value of what you offer. Unfortunately most of us are terrible at talking about what we do. We don't know what to say or how to say it for maximum impact. In this audio program you'll learn how.

I learned out Peggy Klaus and her book, "Brag! Tooting Your Own Horn Without blowing It" through a client who gave it rave reviews. I picked it up and not only did I like the book and the powerful ideas it conveyed about how to speak about one's business, I started to rave about it as well. I assign it to everyone in my marketing groups and have them do exercises from the book.

What Peggy observed is that business people simply don't know how to talk about what they do in a way that makes a lasting impression or impact. Plainly put, people don't know how to brag. She makes a very clear distinction between bad bragging - that just annoys and bores people - and good bragging - where you effectively communicate the essence of what you do and the value you offer in a very appropriate and effective way. In this audio program Peggy shares all her secrets to effective bragging.

This program also contains three additional programs on the same subject, all for one low cost.

Nothing is more important in marketing than "filling the pipeline" with good qualified prospects. But most Independent Professionals are terrible at doing this. In this TeleClass you'll learn how.

Andrea is officially know at the "Queen of Networking" and is an extraordinarily successful marketer of her services. Andrea has written two books, the most recent being "Million Dollar Networking" and when she sent me a copy I knew I had to interview her for the "TeleClass Expert Series."

What we explore in depth is how to fill the marketing pipeline with a never-ending steam of qualified prospects, through what is best called "Relationship Marketing." This TeleClass is one of the most practical you'll ever listen to. It's full of dozens and dozens of specific ideas and strategies for attracting more clients

The Secrets of Value Pricing
Robert Middleton interviews the "Million Dollar Consultant," Alan Weiss

Want to make more money with your professional services? It's not just a matter of attracting more clients, it's knowing how to charge what you're worth.

Several years ago one of my clients recommended a book to me - "Million Dollar Consulting" by Alan Weiss. It was a book that completely changed the way I thought about charging for my services. Alan teaches that you need to charge not for your time, but by the solution you provide, the actual value that a client receives from you.

So many Independent Professionals undercharge for their services. What if you could get 50% more, 100% more, even 200% more for doing the same work you're doing now while actually increasing client satisfaction? It's not only possible, it's achievable sooner than you think.

"How to Make $10,000 (or more) per Month with TeleClasses"

TeleClasses - or classes and presentations by teleconference line - are not only a good way to promote your business, they are a great way to make money.

Creating Your "Ultimate Outcome"
With Robert Middleton

How to develop a powerful client-attracting message for your business

One of the most powerful marketing tools you can use in your business is an Ultimate Outcome. But virtually no one knows what it is, let alone utilizes it in their business.

One of our participants in the Marketing Action Groups created an Ultimate Outcome for one of their services and increased the price of that service from $10,000 to $150,000. Not only that, the service sold more easily and clients were much more satisfied.

An Ultimate Outcome is a specific promise that you will deliver to your clients (for your services in general or for a specific service you offer). An Ultimate Outcome is much more than a marketing message or catchy phrase. It's the essence of what your professional service delivers.

Speaking as a Client-Attracting Marketing Tool
Robert Middleton interviews Vicky Sullivan

Want to attract clients through speaking but not getting the results you'd like?

One of the best ways to promote your Independent Professional Services is through speaking. Talks and presentations have brought me hundreds of thousands in new business over the years. But I've noticed that most people don't know how to consistently attract new clients through speaking. For many, it's a mystery how to leverage the power of a talk to grow their business.

What if you had a reliable and repeatable system for using speaking as your most potent marketing tool? Imagine setting up talks with business and professional groups eager to hear your message. And picture not only giving a talk that provides real value, but turning several of those who attend into new clients.

How to Create a Referral Flood of New Business
Robert Middleton interviews
John Jantsch

Are you doing great work but still not getting enough referrals?

If you ask most Independent Businesses how they get most of their clients, universally the answer is, "From word-of-mouth." But when asked what they are doing specifically to get more word-of-mouth business, the answer goes something like, "Well I network a lot and I do the best work I can and hope people pass my name along."

This can actually work, but for most the referrals simply don't come fast enough. You have a feeling that there's more you could do to get your satisfied clients to send you more referrals and, if you only knew what it was, you would eagerly give it a try. This program outlines a seven-step program to generate a flood of referrals to your business.

How to Build a Powerful Business Network Online
Robert Middleton interviews Scott Allen

How do you identify and develop valuable business relationships online?

Face-to-face networking is great--as human beings we need that live interaction. But how many networking events have you attended that you walked away asking yourself if the chicken dinner, the speaker, and the small stack of business cards of questionable relevance were really worth the $30 and the drive time?

What if you could amplify your efforts tenfold or even a hundred-fold? Spending just a few hours a week on focused online networking, you could identify dozens of highly targeted contacts every week, plus increase your visibility and credibility with thousands, or even tens of thousands.
