Being Thankful Long After the Leftovers Are Gone

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and enjoyed time with their family and friends. I had the opportunity to catch up on some reading and came across an article that was written in the WSJ that talked about being thankful long after the turkey leftovers are gone. Well, that got me thinking about what I can do to help you give back to your clients. So, with today being Cyber Monday I want to introduce you to an online gift giving program I am a distributor for.

Welcome to Ribbon! Ribbon will make your giving back and saying thanks to your clients easy. It is also, great for finding a gift for those that are difficult to buy for.

All you have to do is:

Choose one of the amazing Ribbon Gift Collections, by going to www.ordermygift.com and seeing all that is to offer. You can base it on price, occasion, interest, etc.
Make your purchase through me by e-mailing (dave@davemcgarry.com) me your order.
Then give the Gift Collection to your recipient to redeem for their perfect gift.

And, it’s a breeze for your recipient to redeem.

They just:

1. Enter their Gift Card redemption number at OrderMyGift.com.

2. Select their perfect gift online.

3. Nothing more! In less than two weeks, their gift arrives free

of charge – right on their doorstep

Price list is attached since www.ordermygift.com doesn’t show prices. Which is great since your recipient will not see how much you spent. The Variety Card is great for teachers, co-workers, or for those you just don’t know what to get. It has a variety of different gifts to choose from such as an I-Pod dock, workout equipment, etc. It’s only $30 and you can buy five for the price of four.

Give the Gift of Ribbon and your appreciate and thanks will be shown to your clients. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you!

A Turkey Sized Marketing and Sales Tip for You

Happy Thanksgiving Eve to everyone! Today I want to bring you a quick video blog that has a turkey sized marketing and sales tip to help your business. Be safe in your travels and we will see you on the flip side.

Coach Dave

Have Fun this Thanksgiving

I know many of you are traveling already this week to spend time with family and friends, so I thought this week’s guest post would involve something a little different and lighter in terms of content. Let me introduce you to Sean Stephenson. I was sent this video from Ryan Lee and it really made my day. I hope you enjoy and be sure to bookmark it and play it when you need a little pick me up.

Are you remarkable

Let me ask you a question, “If you were driving down the road and saw a cow, would you stop?” No, you have seen thousands of cows before, but “what if you were continuing to drive down the road and saw a purple cow, would you stop?” Maybe, or at least slow down and see what the heck is that. What I am getting at here today, on another edition of Open Blog Friday, is the idea of being remarkable! Yesterday, someone whom I follow on Facebook shared this video by Seth Godin and I remembered hearing him back at IHRSA several years ago talking about this idea. I have posted the video for you below but want to talk briefly today about how being remarkable can make a difference in your life and business.

The video takes place back in 2003 but is still completely relevant. Probably, even more so today! Why? Well, for one, the club market has become saturated and consumers have way too many choices. And secondly, consumers have a ton of choices and want to be inspired by something new and different. This is why you need to differentiate your product and service. Otherwise, if consumers don’t see a difference they will have no other choice but to make it about price. Now, if we leave it up to being all about price, we are destined to fall as an industry. Here is where being remarkable comes into play!

All right, I have posted the video below and want you to watch it. Now, as you are watching it, begin to think of ways you can become remarkable? Think of ways you can stand out from the herd and be something that people want to belong to. If we all put a little more effort into being remarkable this world we be a better place!

If you have examples of how you or your club is being remarkable please share below with your comments!

Make it a great weekend!
Coach Dave!
