Do You Deserve My Attention?

Today I carved four hours out to study all there is about “Product Launches”.  FOUR hours!  I closed down email, turned off the phone and cleaned up my desk. 
AND YET…

My mind, not used to focusing for four long hours on ONE thing, went crazy! 1000’s of to-do-items popped into my head as I was trying to focus.  The temptation to open my email back up, to quickly check my facebook page, to twitter just for a second about what I had learned, to check if I had phone messages.  AHHHH, I felt so distracted (thank goodness I have the subject of product launches and resisted but still, ohhhh, the temptations…).

Now, what does that have to do with you?  Well, your messages, your emails, your promotions, your websites enter my life during the times that I don’t even TRY to block out distractions.  No, your attempts to communicate with me come when I am actually trying to get those 1000’s of things off my to-do list.
What does that mean to you?  

It means that you not only have your competition to worry about but my attention!

My very short, stretched and maxed-out ATTENTION.  

No wonder, it is harder and harder to emerge from obscurity, to be noticed for your great gifts, for your amazing work, for your great offers…but there is a solution.

Actually, it’s series of solutions that need to be tied together to make the impact you so desire.

1. You need to amplify your entrepreneurial spirit.  Start thinking bigger, start thinking leader.  Start thinking movement.

2. You need to create an electrifying brand.  Your value proposition needs to be supported by powerful values.

3. You have to have irresistible products and services that really (really) work…and you have to customize them to meet your different clients’ needs and budgets

4. You have to create momentum.  The slow selling of your products and service doesn’t work any more.  You need to catapult your name and offer into orbit so that others will take the time to see and hear you.  Not once but many times!

Once you do that, you will in effect deserve my attention and believe me, you’ll have it!  Because you just made it easier for me to focus, to find a solution, to hear you and to learn from you.

Please, please, please, for the sake of the world, follow those 4 steps, do whatever it takes to learn them and then you get to do what you came to do, heal, help and make the planet a more beautiful place for all of us!

One way to get my attention is to leave your comments below. Share your gifts right now.  Make us stop and listen!

P.S. I just finished a report on exactly those 4 steps, I am having it formatted right now and it will be available in a couple days.
