DECEMBER 5, 2008
Topic: The Magic of Persuasion: Engage Your Prospect
Speaker: Sandi Philips
President of Sandi Philips Associates and author of The Magic of Persuasion and Influence Systems
The presentation focuses on selling skills for those who sell for a living and those who sell as part of their living. It is for the experienced and the reluctant. Sandi Philips will bring her wisdom, experience, and humor to this session.
"The Magic of Persuasion" finds its roots in the acronym "MAGIC." It is a process or system which helps you to be professional in your job. "M" stands for Make Friends, "A" stands for Ask Questions. Attend this session to learn the rest of the formula.
Participants will leave knowing how to stay out of their own way and drive the sale forward with bridges to gaining commitment, and behaviors to do and to avoid.
Note: There will not be a January meeting due to the holiday.

News You Can Use
DOMAIN DILIGENCE
Internet addresses use "domain names" that are registered annually and give the registrant unique use of that online name. Each domain name needs an administrative contact, technical contact, and billing contact, plus two Domain Name Servers.
Over seventy-five million .com domain names are currently registered, and new names are getting snapped up quickly. Whether you're ready to take your business online now, or anticipate doing so, this is the time to register your domain name. It's easy and inexpensive. And if the "dot.com" name you want is already taken, there are several good options for domain names that end in .net, .org (best for non-profits), .biz. or .us.
It's often a good idea to register multiple domain names and have them set up as "aliases" for your primary website. Benefits include preventing others from registering names that could compete with yours, improving search engine results by incorporating "key words" into your domain name(s), and setting up the additional names as pointers to particular pages on your site that users may wish to find.
