“When I hear somebody sigh, “Life is hard”, I am always tempted to ask, “Compared to what?” Sydney J. Harris Inspirational Quotes

I don’t know if you’ve stopped to think about this, but how do people best respond to a message?  Let me show you.

Beware of False Evidence Appearing Real

The other day, I went into the chicken coop to gather eggs. I still have some fake eggs in there from when the hens were babies learning where they should deposit their precious gold-filled jewels. Even though the hens know exactly where to lay eggs, some of them evidently like to feel as if they’re really accomplishing something, because they have moved a number of the fakes into the nests.

The plastic eggs are quite realistic. They’re a little rough, so they don’t seem like plastic. They’re light brown, just like most of the eggs from my brown-laying ladies, and they’re about the size you’d expect any egg to be. But they’re hollow and insubstantial in heft.

So when I approached the nest in the hay bail, the hen whom I call Brrr because of the growly noise she makes told me she had her fortune beneath her and she did not want to give it up. She’s actually a sweet hen but makes a lot of noise when you go for her stash. Laughing, I lifted Brrr off her hoard and discovered she did indeed have a whole pile of eggs.

If you look at them, they all appear to be real. And when a hen has been sitting over them, they’re all toasty warm. So they all feel the same at first touch.

So in order to take only the nourishing eggs home, I have to handle each egg a little to sort the real from the fake. As I went through this sorting exercise, I thought how much it reminded me of doing business online.

See, there are a lot of gurus who appear to have nourishing information. They package it in a way that makes it appear valuable. It’s the right kind of stuff, and it seems appealing. It looks like exactly what you need

As a matter of fact,some people hoard all this information as if it is all a treasure beyond measure, just as Brrr does. It is only when you take the time to study the items that you realize some are heavy, nourishing and true, while others are hollow and misleading.

I know I’ve run into a number of fake eggs in my entrepreneurial journey. I even used to work with one of them. Perhaps you’ve encountered some misleading information along the way as well.

So whenever you encounter someone who appears to have valuable resources that will nourish and strengthen you, be sure to interact with that egg to discern whether or not it’s true!

What you’ve just experienced is an example of storytelling for business in which I used an everyday occurrence…well, for ME it’s an everyday occurrence…and used it to show you an important teaching  in an unusual and memorable way.

Perhaps you’ll remember the story of the plastic eggs next time you encounter what appears at first glance to be nutritious, healthy resources. And I’m sure that like me, you’ll pick up a fake once or twice and only realize when it’s in your hand how useless it truly is.

Where does storytelling come in to your business? Everywhere! You will tell stories in blog posts, articles, teleseminars, webinars, live events, inside your book, inside your product, in coaching calls, in consultations, in emails…everywhere!

Storytelling for business belongs in all your communications, including articles.

One of the world’s most well-known article marketers, whose own articles can be found on top websites like About.com, Home Business Magazine, Site Pro News, MarketingProfs,MediaPost and thousand more invited me to be a guest expert in his new article writing live-by-phone workshop event starting this week.

I am really excited, because article marketing expert Eric Gruber has grown his whole business around articles, and his approach to article marketing is heart-centered and relationship building. I’ve personally met him at some live events and am truly impressed. He makes writing good articles easy.

I’m so impressed with his system that I am promoting it from inside the pages of The Instant VIP book, which teaches experts how to write a book that prospers your business.

I am excited to join his 7-night event where I will show you step-by-step how to…

Design your story — and use it within your articles

Now, discover how to write articles the right way so you can…

· Articulate the seemingly un-nameable, intuitive work

that is understandable and compelling.

consistently, without losing your true voice.

you know what you write isn’t boring, or mushy.

you even asking.

to buy into your ideas. Using my article writing
system, you can have the power to motivate, influence
and persuade your prospects to agree to practically

psychological triggers that gets readers to take
instant action as soon as they done reading your
article.

everything you write.

price resistance among potential clients and customers
just by writing thought leadership articles.

and prospects and become known as the celebrity expert
in your market

system that he lays right out in front of you, step-by-step

define economic stimulus for yourself.

And there’s good news, because I’ll show you
a profitable and truly exciting way to
define economic stimulus not only for you
and your business, but also for your clients!

Adding an income stream from Joint Ventures
to your consulting business is a proven
business model that has been described as…

‘The most comprehensive and results-producing

that you already have, you will literally
increase your own income in HUGE ways!

making money out of thin air. Because you are!

Let’s just say you help your client bring in an
EXTRA $100,000 in sales. Its money the client
never would have had if you hadn’t been in the
picture.

How likely would the client be to pay you 20%
of that $100,000 – in other words, $20,000 –
in return for your help in putting $80,000
in the client’s hands?

Pretty likely, right? I mean, the client still
gets to keep $80,000 that they would never have
it wasn’t for your efforts.

So of course, the client’s going to GLADLY give
you $20,000!

o why aren’t you setting up deals left and
right even today?

Probably for the same reason that I didn’t dive
into arranging joint ventures…because I had no
clue how to find the partners and do the deals.

That’s all changed for me now, and one of my clients,
Glen, said to me, “You’re amazing! I never
would have thought of the things you’re
doing for me!”

I’m really excited about the joint ventures I’ve
been arranging for clients. Joint Venture facilitation
is a form of magic. Amazing connections happen,
deals are made, and all parties and the
people we serve WIN in a big way.
