			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you been wondering how to market yourself?  How about how to market a business?<br />
I discovered there&#8217;s a way to help market yourself that many people seem to overlook.</p>
<p><a href="http://websitemakeoverworkshop.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/how-to-market-yourself.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1460 alignnone" title="how to market yourself" src="http://websitemakeoverworkshop.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/how-to-market-yourself.jpg" alt="how to market yourself" width="588" height="250" /></a></p>
<p>Just the other week I wrote the article titled &#8220;<a href="http://websitemakeoverworkshop.com/2009/10/can-customer-feedback-increase-your-sales/" target="_blank">Can Customer Feedback Increase Your Sales?</a>&#8220;  The<br />
article discusses how to use customer testimonials to help with your sales. But what can giving a<br />
testimonial do for you?</p>
<p>We all desire help with our marketing efforts and some portions of it requires an investment. Then<br />
there are ways that are cost effective. I learned that my giving genuine testimonials can help brand<br />
and market me with zero out of pocket expense.</p>
<p>The goal with marketing is to reach your target audience and/or market over and over again while<br />
receiving a high ROI (return on investment).  How can you achieve this goal without ever having to<br />
pay for it?</p>
<p>Well earlier this year I decided to give a testimonial on a program that&#8217;s offered by someone I&#8217;ve<br />
been learning from since 2005.  With my taking 10 to 15 minutes to share my true feelings about<br />
<a href="http://www.mrmibasictraining.com/" target="_blank">MRMI Basic Training</a>, they placed my photo on the front page.</p>
<p>This opportunity has allowed me to be contacted by someone whom I&#8217;ve admired because they saw<br />
me on this website.  Now, Stephen Pierce is an authority in what he does, so being on a website of<br />
someone who is really respected makes it great.</p>
<p>Just this past September I offered feedback to an article I read in the Entrepreneur Magazine on<br />
Russell Simmons.  Again, taking about 15 minutes to express what inspired me the most about the<br />
article has allowed my letter to the editor to be published in the November issue of Entrepreneur<br />
Magazine.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s really easy to get started with putting your name, brand, and face out there by providing testimonials.</p>
<p>Here are few steps:<br />
1. Recognize what products or services you’ve found of value.</p>
<p>2. Ask yourself: &#8220;Have I told everyone about it?&#8221; and “Have I shared my joy with the business?”</p>
<p>3. Sit down and write a brief email on what you like best about the product and/or service.</p>
<p>4. Most importantly be genuine.</p>
<p>Remember this, your company and name is behind this testimonial, so be sure to stand firm on it.  This<br />
is something you can implement right now.  Don&#8217;t you agree?</p>
