One of these preparations that people commonly consider is dining while doing negotiations. In many cultures, it is an expectation that you will conduct business dealings over a meal. But some people may wonder, particularly in the United States, where it is not necessarily a common practice to negotiate at a restaurant, if business negotiations are really more successful if they take place over a meal. Read on to learn how meals can actually help your business negotiations be more effective.

Great Bonding

In general, meals can be a great bonding experience. One of the most useful things about taking your negotiating meeting to a restaurant is that the business dealings will be taking place in a neutral location. This allows both parties to have even footing and not feel intimidation from one side or the other.

Think about it: if you are walking into another company’s boardroom and are surrounded by their executives, you won’t feel the confidence you’d feel on your own turf, and this could lead to you conceding to their demands if you don’t think you have good footing. This holds true for the other side as well. At a restaurant, both parties are on common ground and won’t feel an advantage or disadvantage over the other side, but food plays a more important role in this than the actual location does.

Better successful negotiations

Another thing to consider is that research actually shows that business dealings conducted over meals are more successful, and that eating is really the only collaborative activity that leads to better negotiations. Lakshmi Balachandra, a professor at Babson College, performed an experiment with 130 business students to see how negotiating over a meal would either help or hurt the outcome of the discussions for either party.

What she found was that the students who dined during their dealings were able to negotiate much higher profits than those who either did not dine or the teams that tried to engage in other team-building activities or tasks like solving a puzzle together. This research has excellent implications for the idea that eating together can help businesses engage in better transactions.

Balachandra’s research also showed that eating in general is the important component of the negotiations; going to a restaurant is not necessarily the best option. Groups in the study who didn’t eat out but instead just had food available in a conference room were able to negotiate profits and positive transactions just as well as those who went to restaurants. So even if you do have to host a negotiation at your office, provide food. This will still result in better cooperation than a plain old boardroom meeting.

It’s all because of biology

All of this is great news for people looking to enhance their business dealings, but what is the explanation behind it? Balachandra found that this phenomenon is essentially a biological one, with some social ties. When people eat, their glucose levels rise and this augments complex brain activities, engages self-control mechanisms, and regulates aggressive behaviors that could emerge without the presence of food.

Additionally, other studies have shown that when people participate in similar behaviors and unconsciously mimic each other’s movements, they are more likely to experience positive thoughts toward each other. This suggests that seeing people eating while you are also eating will subconsciously allow you to identify with them on a deeper level, and you’ll be more apt to respond positively to their suggestions. Negotiations will go much more smoothly if you and the other side are joining in similar actions.

Interestingly enough, eating together can have very positive results when it comes to taking on business negotiations. If you’re preparing to undergo some serious exchanges with another company, consider doing the negotiations in a restaurant, or hiring a caterer to bring food to your office if you’re hosting the other party. If you’re working with foreign clients, be sure to inform yourself about their particular cultural practices as well. Yes, negotiations can be difficult, but enjoying a great meal along with the conversation can lead to improved responses and better outcomes for both sides.

Can Business Negotiations Improve Over A Meal? is a post from: Lakeshore Branding

Successful small businesses all have the same secret: People notice them. When people notice a business, it means more customers and faster growth. Of course, this is common knowledge. Businesses are constantly trying to attract customers. Their marketing efforts compete with the marketing efforts of every other business, and the result is a mess so confusing that potential customers do not notice any business.

Making your business stand out in such an environment is tricky. It requires wit and the right strategies. Read on for four ways to get your small business noticed.

Social Media Marketing

Creating profiles on websites such as LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter is the first step to social media marketing. Not only is this option free of charge but it is also one of the best as it has a lot of audience. Adopting this marketing tool not only enhances your coverage but it also maximizes your advertising efforts. Creating a profile is quite useful in several ways. Like a normal website, they provide pictures, links, a business description and contact information. The advantage of a social media profile is that it is more visible to the friends of users who already like the business.

Use Twitter

Of the various social networking websites, Twitter is particularly valuable for businesses. A business can use Twitter to inform their customers of special deals and offers. If a deal is particularly enticing, the online followers of a business will use Twitter to inform all of their followers. A massive increase in publicity is the result. In addition, talking to customers regularly on Twitter makes them feel connected to a business and can lead them to favor that business over competitors.

This is one marketing strategy that has been adopted by many businesses, small and big alike. Having the means to know what your market thinks about your product is an invaluable tool. And giving your customers the option of being able to get in touch with you just makes your business all the more within reach, which is a big plus for you.

Hand Out Branded Merchandise

T-shirts and promo water bottles marked with a business’s logo are great marketing tools. A business can hand them out when customers make a purchase. There are two benefits: Customers make more purchases in order to receive the free merchandise, and when they drink from the custom bottles and cups or wear the branded t-shirts, others see the company name.

Promote With Other Businesses

This is an effective and cheap way to make customers notice your business. Typically, one business will agree to promote the products of another business in exchange for goods or services. The two businesses are often in related industries but are not competitors. For example, a coffee shop specializing in organic coffee could promote a nearby health food store in exchange for free health food.

Four Ways To Get Your Small Business Noticed is a post from: Lakeshore Branding

As we are nearing the end, don’t miss the chance to read more about these useful guest blog posting tips and apply them with your guest blogging endeavors.

Secret #25: Write a killer bio

The only claim to fame that you can expect out of most guest blog posts will come by way of your bio. This is your little bit of space to shine, so make it count. Of course, this can be somewhat difficult given the limited word counts and space provided for bios. But being able to come up with a solid call to action is vital to the success of any guest blog post. You should also make sure to link to content that is relevant to the post.

Secret #26:  “More” isn’t necessarily “better” when it comes to guest blog posts

As mentioned previously, quality is one of the most important factors in successful guest blog posting. Sure it is a good thing to add guest blog posts on a regular basis, since it will help you expand your brand and increase your exposure to potential readers. However, just because you can churn out several posts in a short amount of time doesn’t mean that you should. It is important to keep in mind that Google prioritizes natural growth when determining ranking. You should therefore take the time to build slowly, and work toward a natural progression for your blog in order to get the best results.

Secret #27: Articles are the best type of content

Articles are considered the most effective vehicles for attracting web traffic, whether they are written for your own site or for article marketing purposes. However, you should remember that your content will not be seen if no one knows it exists. Although the major search engines will probably crawl your site anyway, you still need to implement basic SEO techniques in order to increase traffic.

Secret #28:  Google still likes guest blog posts

Because of how strict Google is with guest blog posts and how closely they monitor guest blogging practices, it is easy to get the impression that Google doesn’t like guest blog posts and would rather have them disappear entirely. This isn’t entirely true as Google personnel have said repeatedly, although there are right and wrong ways to post on guest blogs. Good guest blog posts help people find the relevant content they are looking for. On the other hand, guest blog posts written for spamming purposes or as part of a black hat strategy are likely to be frowned upon by Google.

Secret #29:  Guest blog posts can be used on more than just blogs

When guest blog posting, it would be beneficial to think creatively and “outside the box”. I understand that the term is guest BLOG post, but you can always benefit from stepping out of your comfort zone. Why not try submitting an article for an email newsletter, or coming up with content for a Facebook post? As crazy as it may sound, you may also want to submit articles to a magazine. There is a big, wide world outside the fairly limited blogosphere, and there are always outlets for putting out quality content.

Secret #30:  It’s okay to get paid for a guest blog post

There is certainly nothing wrong with getting paid for high quality content, and it is no different in the world of the guest blog post. Getting paid–or not getting paid–will not have any significant effect on how your content will be perceived, either by Google, the host of the blog, or the blog’s readers. In fact, guest blog posting can open up a nice, new revenue stream for you once you become really good at it and have built up a nice portfolio.

Secret #31:  Look for guest blog posts that allow you to have links within the post

Far too often, people limit themselves to having a link only in the bio section of the post. This is admittedly standard practice, and it works well for the most part. However, don’t discount the possibility of posting a link right in the body of the article. This SEO technique is especially effective when tied in with a relevant keyword. As always however, it is important to keep structure, flow, and relevance in mind, and not post a link wherever you want just because you can.

Secret #32: Don’t plan on getting published right away

One thing that you will soon realize about guest blog posting is that most established bloggers are on what is called a “blog schedule” or “blog calendar”. This means that even if your post is accepted, it will probably be a couple of weeks before you see it online. Keep this in mind when planning your bio links and your own blog schedule. While you should be prepared for your blog to be published at a moment’s notice, it is seldom that a blog post will be published right away.

Keeping Up With the Changes 

Businesses don’t always have time to keep up with all of these changes that are happening. They may be aware of the changes because suddenly their web site is no longer getting the traffic that it needs. Sales may drop off or new customers may dwindle like a candle that has run out of wick. It can be really difficult for any single person or business to keep up with all of these changes. It’s not like there is a public notice posted that states your web site is no longer going to be ranking well. It just simply disappears over night. It is as if someone turned a switch and that constant flow of traffic dries up. This is the reality that exists in the Internet marketing world, but there are a very few chosen few who work tirelessly round the clock to understand these changes. These are the people who live and breathe search engine optimization like you and I breathe air. These are the people that you want on your side.

Locating the Right Team

Now that you know there is actually a team of people that can help you with your SEO, it is up to you to locate these people. There is only one place to look. You must look on the Internet. It only makes sense that in order to find a highly skilled group of people that knows the inner working of the Internet that you should start looking in their playing field.

Not just any old search engine optimization company will do. Most companies are still trying to figure out what happened when the mighty Google unleashed its tigers. You need to find a search engine marketing company that specializes in a campaign where you only pay for results. This way you are not guessing about any type of results. You only pay once your web site gets the results that were agreed upon. It really should not be any other way.

Put your thinking cap on for a second. When you sit down at your favourite restaurant and order tea and crumpets, what do you expect to get? You don’t expect a tuna sandwich unless you ordered it. You expect to get what you ordered. Why should the world of Internet marketing be any different? Well the simple fact is that it should not be any different at all.

What Does It Take To Land A Number One Position In The Search Results? is a post from: Lakeshore Branding

Sitemaps.org is the official website for the joint venture and includes much information about the new norm and syntax. Unfortunately, the site fails to describe how to submit a sitemap for different search engines. The configuration suggested on the site does not actually work for different search engines. Here are steps with instructions for how to make your sitemap and how to submit to different search engines.

Create your sitemap

Certain web hosting companies give utilities through their web control panel in order to generate your sitemap so that you could always check your provider. If you are not interested in this service or it is not available, then go to xml-sitemaps.com and type your site URL in the generator box. When the sitemap results arrive, copy and paste it into the notepad and save and upload to your site in the file name sitemap.xml. Some people may want to validate their XML sitemaps before uploading to the search engines and this is good, especially if you have made any manual changes. Go for the effective XML validator and place the URL of your sitemap and check it for the norm compliance.

How to submit sitemap to Google?

Google is the pioneer of XML plan for sitemaps and have also developed an outstanding portal for webmasters through which they can submit their sitemap. The URL is google.com/webmasters/. People first need to state Google all the site they own and then verify that you indeed possess them. You can achieve the verification by attaching a meta tag between the head tags on the site’s homepage. The tag’s syntax is;

<meta content=”unique code advised by google” name=”verify-v1″>.

Complete information and instructions on how to submit your sitemap will be explained in this site.

How to submit sitemaps for MSN?

MSN has not yet executed a formal interface for sitemap submission. You can check the situation by visiting its official blog and get updated information about all future announcements. Though the search engine has not yet executed a front interface, it has an authorized back door for submitting sitemaps to the search index and it is called as moreover.com. People need to use the given below syntax in their browser URL box;

[http://api.moreover.com/ping?u=http://yourdomain.com/yoursitemap.xml].

From February 2005, the backdoor of MSN, moreover.com is the official provider f RSS feeds to the myMSN portal. Solid evidence recommends that submission to moreover.com will lead to MSN spidering of your pages within 2-3 weeks. Remember, though MSN don’t support direct submission, it suggests on their blog that people add a reference to their sitemap into their robots.txt file. This would let MSN to crawl the sitemap file instead of crawling cgi-bin directory.

How to submit sitemaps for Yahoo

Yahoo complies with a similar approach to Google. There is a committed service for webmasters called Yahoo! Site Explorer and a process for verifying a person’s ownership of the site. You need to add a site and then choose the verification option. This will let you download a verification HTML file that you need to upload to the original directory of your web server. Then you can go back to Site Explorer and state Yahoo to begin verification process. This may take around 24 hours time frame and in that time, you can add your sitemap by pressing on the manage button and then adding the sitemap as a feed.

How to submit sitemaps for Ask

Compared to the aforementioned three search engines, Ask follow simple approach. You need to enter a ping URL accompanied by the complete URL of where your sitemap is placed. Click on return button and you will receive a reassuring message from Ask that they have got your submission.

How advantageous a sitemap submission is?

Sitemaps made for search engines are different to the kind of site map that you have on your website. The former kind of sitemaps is the simplified way for users to navigate your website. Sitemaps are XML document that effectively tells search engines the number of pages that your site contains and the place where they can be found. When you submit your site to search engines, you are only presenting the entire domain. This means, when search engines index your site they are less likely to analyze internal page and therefore, submitting a sitemap enhances the changes of internal page indexation in a quick manner. Thus, you can increase the chances of ranking higher.

Submission of sitemaps on search engines is free, easy to execute and very quick for anyone with less knowledge and experience. Remember, submitting a site map over and over again does not enhance your page rankings. Sometimes it can cause the opposite effect and can include spam. There are many companies misleading people with submission services. When your site is indexed by search engines, you need to execute on-site and off-site SEO to enhance rankings as well as to excel in the competition. You have keep in mind that re-submitting your site does not enhance your rankings. Many people talk about search engine submission services and generating site maps to search engines. Submitting sitemaps is more likely to get a website indexed more rapidly as well as create a positive impact on rankings.

Why You Should Redesign Your Website In 2013 is a post from: Lakeshore Branding

You can engage with old and new customers, reach out to potential customers. And grow your company like never before. Social media has opened up the world for all businesses, putting small business in league with the big guys.

Alternately, social media opens a business up to negative comments and bad publicity like never before. At one time negative comments came via word of mouth. People didn’t always put stock in what some people had to say about a business because they could gauge that person’s personality type face to face. Perhaps the person was just hard to please.

On the internet, knowing how people react to business in general can be iffy.

Due to how social media allows anyone to comment on a company’s timeline or account, you can have hundreds of comments on one person’s bad review. That one review can put your business in jeopardy. How can you survive negative social media attacks?

Watch Your Interactions

Be careful with how you handle such bad reviews.

Don’t go to every review and say ‘That’s not true!” and then try to discredit the person. The best effort with one customer making a bad review is to thank them for using your company and product, then offering to replace a bad product or give them a free service.

Do whatever you can to placate the person. How you handle the negativity is just as important as why the person was upset. People will view how you conduct the interaction. If you are not personally handling the negativity train your customer service reps to do so politely.

Don’t Ignore Negativity

While it may be tempting to ignore bad review, don’t.

You don’t need to comment on each one – have a policy where you delete reviews on your own pages that are nasty or personally attacking you, your employees, or other commenters.

Personal attacks should never be allowed to stay on a social page. Do not respond to such attacks in an offensive manner, if you do, you risk ruining your brand. Handle the negative comments politely and move on.

Hire Outside Help

Sometimes you can’t make the negativity disappear. If you aren’t providing a good product or service then admit it and work toward improving.

People on social media are much more forgiving when a company admits that is has faults, then works to change that. Keep your followers up to date on improvements. You may need to hire someone to help with this. There are reputation management companies that can help you with all of you social media issues. They’re much less expensive than trying to rebuild a brand after a huge problem.

Take your time and always be polite to followers.

Remember, even in social media the customer is always right. It’s easy to forget that when you’re on the wrong end of a negative Nelly, but don’t let negativity win out!

Link to your eBay store

This will help to push your items further up Google’s search results. It is true that some of your traffic comes from Google. People who are looking for very specific items are likely to find your items on eBay. Very few eBay stores and eBay items have links pointing to them, so it doesn’t take very many to get your item listed higher in Google‘s search results.

In addition, if your store has a renew feature that automatically starts the advert as soon as it expires, then you can keep the link pointed to the advert for a long time. This re-new feature is how people are able to have those little “sold” numbers next to their stock levels on the eBay advert description page. Adverts that have been running for years may show that they have sold hundreds of their product.

Review the things on your store

Do deep and in depth reviews of your products, but you need to remember that this is not an advert. This is a cold and frank look at your product, but with a bit of a positive twist to it. If it comes across as promotional, then nobody will read your review at all. You cannot do things such as review your intermediate model and say it is great, and then review your deluxe model and say it is great.

You are better off creating a structure to your reviews. This structure can involve statistics and should involve categories, such as a “feel test” or a “quality test” or section with comparisons with other items of a similar ilk. If you structure all of your reviews in the same manner, then it will be a lot easier for your viewers to read numerous and judge your products appropriately.

Promote your blog on social media to promote your eBay store

Integrate the social media into your blog so that you can promote your blog on social media. That way you will get more viewers that you can direct to your eBay store.

Tell people why they want the things on your blog

Your blog posts should not be promotional, but you can tell people why they want your products. Think of it as if you were their friend talking to them in a bar. In such a situation, you would not promote the item or service, but you may talk about it with some reverence. You may see it in more positive terms than in more negative terms. You may also be quite enthusiastic about it too, which is fine, just so long as you are enthusiastic like a consumer; and, not enthusiastic like a car salesperson.

Allow people to purchase on your blog

This is not as difficult as it seems. There is web coding that will allow you to set up purchases on your blog and have it wire though your eBay store. You will need to inform the user that he or she will need an eBay account in order to see the purchase through to conclusion. In a sense you are selling with eBay, but you removing the competition. If you were to send people to your store, then what is stopping them from looking at other people’s goods too? If they buy it within your blog, then the only items they see are the ones you are selling.

Offer to inform people of new items via your RSS feed

Your blog can have an RSS feed that will tell people when you have posted a new blog post. But, you can also tell people that you will keep them informed on new products if they sign up for your RSS feed. You can write full blog posts every time that you release a new product. The blog post will serve as way of informing people of a new product. You can also tell people via the RSS feed that your blog post is about a new item, which may entice people to have a look at that post in particular. Just make sure you include lots of pictures in that post particularly.

Focus on attracting your own buying niche

There is a certain segment of the online community who will shop on eBay if they are encouraged. You need to locate this niche (it is a big one) and then identify your market within it. You really need to get into the minds of these people and try to attract them with your blog. Do not overlook the obvious things, such as if, your clientele are over the age of fifty then there is good chance that they have a mortgage and it is unlikely that their kids are still babies.

Put calls to action at the end of each post

Consider just telling your viewers to follow the links. You may not have to be as subtle as convincing your viewers to go and buy from you. Just tell them that they should follow your link and buy something. You can use a bit more marketing tact if you like, but try being blunt one week and see if it works better for you.

Use it to stay in contact with your target audience

You can use the blog to engage your viewers and the comment section to gauge their reaction and to communicate with them. You can use your comment section as a sounding board and as a place to test a few marketing ideas and techniques, because you can see a quicker reaction as people reply to you.

How To Use A Blog To Promote Your E-Bay Store is a post from: Lakeshore Branding

1. Change the routine regularly

It’s often hard to accept change in one’s life, but sometimes a change within an office space may be the exact element of surprise needed to increase productivity levels. Employees may become too used to a specific way of working. And while they might provide adequate work, too much routine may reduce potential for innovation and increased efficiency. Step outside the box of routine and change up the office set up, take a break to casually discuss new ideas for projects openly without restraint, or just chat.

2. Engage in a reward and recognition system

All humans respond positively to a system that rewards achievement and offers recognition for various tasks, but such systems aren’t solely the domain of video games. The workplace, too, may benefit from programs designed to reward employees when they reach certain goals. Special incentives, monetary bonuses, and company-wide recognition are terrific ways to show that the company cares about its employees and their successes.

3. Offer Guidance but Don’t Micromanage

An employee without any guidance may falter or lose focus over time, while an employee who has someone looking over his shoulder all the time will feel that his employer has no trust or confidence in his abilities. Guidance remains fundamental to business success, but it should not stifle creativity. If you are the office manager, be sure that your influence doesn’t stifle workflow and creativity.

4. Consider a different and upgraded dress code

The way in which employees dress may have a direct impact on how they approach their work each day. Professional wardrobe choices like those at Reem clothing may offer a company a chance to define a positive company attitude. Cooperative and professional dress options increase feelings of collaboration between employees.

5. Reduce time spent in meetings

Nobody likes meetings whether they are a presenter or just an audience member and each hour of the week spent in a meeting is time lost on actual, productive activities. Meetings should be short and speeches shouldn’t be a part of any gathering outside of a monthly progress update.

Even the most technologically advanced and comfortable offices may experience reduced productivity if employees aren’t guided properly. Whether a workplace has many employees and multiple locations or whether it’s a small company with only a handful of employees, these five tips should increase productivity within the office.

5 Simple Changes Your Office Can Make For Improved Productivity is a post from: Lakeshore Branding

#5. Identify the core niche and target it.

The Internet is a massive market, and it is a huge mistake when a business simply markets a product in a general sense. At best, that approach is ineffective and inefficient, and at worst, it can foster a negative perception of the product. The better way is to identify the core niche for the product, and then spend all available marketing resources on promoting to that group.

#4. Make use of channels.

Once the business has identified the proper niche, it can get the most of it through a channel-based approach. A channel is a filter that marketing can apply to a niche the way that a programmer may apply a query to a database. The benefit to this is that the business can market based on a wide range of consumer characteristics, and the effort is even reducible to a granular level that works with individuals.

#3. Build the brand.

Do not allow a product or the company that sells it to be just an inanimate object. Loyalty and trust are relationship characteristics that require an emotional link. In order to achieve that emotional link, the business must build a brand that is easily identified, memorable and viewed in a positive light. If a consumer can connect with a brand, he or she can connect with the current and all future products.

#2. Develop relationships.

Creating an effective brand allows the possibility for a productive relationship, but those will not happen automatically. The business can foster them, however, by connecting with clients and potential clients through its website and through social networks, such as Facebook and Twitter. The best way for a business to build a relationship is to provide value beyond just the product it sells.

#1. Employ a feed management service.

Identifying niches, managing channels, building brands and developing relationships can be a complex assignment even for the smallest small business online. The best way to overcome that challenge is to use a feed manager, which will allow the business to manage product feeds, optimize marketing, analyze channels and so forth.

Conclusion

Effective marketing of a product online requires finding the right potential customers and putting the effort forth to convert them into sales.
