What's New: Business Master Class 2007

Hello again and welcome to all of our new members after Fitpro in the UK and FILEX in Sydney. While you’re reading this month’s e-news I’m holidaying with my wife in LA, New York, Dublin and London. The joys of technology hey – setting up info to send out before you go on holidays.

To help you take more well deserved holidays and earn more money we’ve got another Business Master Class starting in Sydney on Friday 25 May. The business tip this month is on the 7 deadly sins of email. As your business grows and you get busier and busier – email can really take over and choke your productivity. I run a number of email management courses for corporate clients and find super productive people use email to boost productivity; not drag it down. How do you go? How many of the sins do you break? Have a great month.

Business Tip: The 7 Deadly Sins of Email

Remember the days when we actually posted a letter via “snail mail”? Those days are long gone and speed of communication is the new king. Sitting in the court of this new kingdom is email. It has revolutionised communication, making it simpler and faster for businesses to communicate.

IT market researcher Radicatti predicts daily emails sent and received will hit 331 billion worldwide by 2009. Such huge volumes mean that email consumes more and more of the average employee’s working day, with devastating implications for workplace productivity. Recent research by Emphasis reveals that senior staff in some of the UK’s Big Four Firms spend an average of £10,000 per person (A$25,000) annually on paying people to read and write emails.

Most of us have developed bad “email etiquette” because of the sheer convenience of the medium and the fact that we haven’t taken time out to think about how we can control, rather than be controlled by this tool

6 Figure Interview: Joe Bonington, Joe Bonington Ltd

Joe Bonington works at Fitness First and he is one of Sydney’s best known fitness trainers.

Q: How have you applied the PT Plus process to your business?

Move through the stages and learn from your mistakes. I was jumping ahead of myself and had not got the infrastucture or financial support network in place. Andrew’s income ladder helped me see what I hadn’t put in place further down the ladder which was crippling my move up the ladder. Once these issues were addressed progress has been swift.

The other process I have applied is to not discount!! I stopped offering discounted packages all the time and added value to what I already had plus learnt how to bundle packages and programs together.

And lastly ‘Spin the Medium’, I am currently developing different ways to deliver my products to a greater market.

Put simply you’re mad to not do this program!”
