Applied Quantum Physics in Business – Part One hing. Therefore, the job
of your product and advertisement vehicle is to move your prospect
to buy. You have to stir enough emotions, not only to cause desire,
but the rationalization that provides an excuse based on logic.Now that’s quite a title for a story about business! What the heck has Quantum Physics to do with the day-to-day challenges of a business? The goals in business are obvious: Having an attractive product or service appealing to a large number of customers at an optimum price allowing an optimum profit! And of course the business must grow, because if you don’t grow you just die, right? That is one of the most basic Marketing rules…standing still means dying or in other words going out of business. So what you need is a vision, a strategy how to get there and an action plan to make your strategy work.What if I can explain to you that there is much more to it, that Quantum Physics indeed plays a crucial role in your business?First of all whatever you do the “Human Dimension” comes into the play. And the human beings being it your employees, your customers or clients, or yourself and your family are deciding in the end how successful your business will become! There is an interaction between you and all these people contributing to your business and this interaction takes place mostly in the subconscious realm.Having that “said” I want to direct your attention now to Energy. Look at the universe: There are clusters of galaxies, then galaxies, then solar-systems, planets, matter, molecules, atoms, sub-atomic particles…and then there is energy…nothing else but energy. Now take a look at yourself: there is your body, your organs, cells, molecules, atoms, sub-atomic particles…and then there is energy…nothing else Even after a prospect makes a commitment to buy your book, etc. they may think they have acted logically. None of your customers will ever Admit that emotions had anything to do with their purchase. What you must always be aware of however, is that logic probably had little to do with the buyer's decision. That is because human actions are often caused by instincts and compulsions that most buyers are unaware of. As you write your material for publication in any form, or as you develop an ad or other sales package, always think in terms of how a particular benefit will stir a reader's emotions and desires. Try to understand how your product might be perceived by readers by focusing on your own feelings. ADVERTISING IS VITAL TO THE SUCCESS OF YOUR SELF-PUBLISHING VENTURE The success of your advertising will ultimately depend on the salability of your book, manual, report, newsletter, etc. Good advertising will make a good book sell better, but it cannot transform a poor book into being successful. Advertising is vital to any business venture because: 1) it allows a business to deliver their message repeatedly and reinforce it in the minds of targeted consumers. 2) It allows a business to reach hundreds of thousands of potential cu A Sense of Humor in the Workplace ... Is it Me? Or, was that not funny? You can make a lot of money by writing and self-publishing your own
material, if you are willing to write books, manuals, reports or
newsletters that millions of people across the United States, and
throughout the world for that matter, desperately want to buy. Today, more than ever before, is the age of information.When I was first initiated into Corporate America, I had a sense of humor that went unmatched by any mortal soul. I was quick-witted, smart, sharp, and knew every gag and joke available to humanity. Most of it, I learned in college. But, college never really did teach the fact that having a sense of humor in the workplace is different than 'jocularity.' After a few brushes with career-chaos, I realized that the definition of 'corporate humor' deals with how one handles oneself and not how one can elicit laughter.--- Where did this come from? ---One of my friends came to Las Vegas last week to visit and relax a bit. He and I went out and checked out some of the local bands. During the course of the evening, he brought up some issues about his current job situation. After some introductory words, we discussed the issue that he seems to get blamed for some of the stupidest things, that he never did, and no one takes him seriously anymore. Then, he cracked some joke about it and we carried on.Not being taken seriously by your peers is actually a common problem with people who do have a sense of humor. But, funny has no place in the workplace and can easily wreak havoc on an otherwise blossoming career.--- So, no more laughter? ---Of course, laughter is necessary in life. But, in a professional setting, it becomes a different type of laughter. One situation you will encounter as you move through your career is the seriousness of professionalism. Of course, to some, this is not a problem Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, there continues to be an incredible demand for information throughout America and the world. There is an astronomical demand for information packed books, manuals, reports and newsletters of almost every imaginable kind. It's really much easier than you might have ever guessed to start filling your bank account with cash from information you possess. People crave information that appeals to their basic needs and will somehow educate or enlighten them. Simply by putting your own specialized information into books, manuals, reports or newsletters, you can start putting a hefty price on information you have no doubt been giving away. FIND YOUR MARKET-THEN WRITE YOUR MATERIAL Anyone who can communicate an idea to another person, should be able to get their same message across on a written page. If you are either an expert on some subject, or are interested enough to obtain the information for a project, you have what it takes to go from having an idea, to self-publishing your own material in whatever format it develops into. There are hundreds of publications filled with ads by people just like you, who discovered they could make a lot of money writing and publishing their work. Looking through opportunity magazines, or other publications that cover the field you are interested in, is a good place to start looking for ideas. Review all the advertisements in the magazines you have chosen to see what popular topics and subjects are being written about in books, manuals, reports and newsletters. Then ask yourself if you can come up with a better way, or have equally interesting information you can present from a different angle, or with a different twist that would be of interest to the readers in that market. If the answer is "yes," then you can enter that market and also make some incredible money! CASH IN ON YOUR OWN CREATIVITY AND EXPERTISE be creative in developing your material. Perhaps you are aware of some technique that allows people to accomplish their goals faster in a certain field. Maybe you can think of a better way to cash in on a current fad. The bottom line is that people are hungry for information and ideas, and you can become the writer or self-publisher of information people want to buy. People are eager to buy information that can help them improve their lives 1) Financially; 2) Physically; and 3) emotionally. If you can fill any of those needs with information that can be put onto a written page, there are millions of people waiting to hand over their cash to get it. KNOWING HOW TO PACKAGE YOUR INFORMATION CAN EARN YOU A FORTUNE! After you have written your material, you will have to decide on how you will package the information to make it salable. Depending on your market, some packaging will sell better than others. For example, you can print your information in a series of publications, print it in a book, manual, report or newsletter, put it on a cassette tapes or present it at seminars. You can focus on one area, or utilize much area. One thing is certain; people are paying billions of dollars to obtain well packaged information! There are books that sell for up to $100 and more, with manuals in a close second. There are reports that consist of 10-12 pages selling for up to $10 or more, while seminars can cost as much as $15,000 for a single weekend. It may sound incredible to the average person, but people are willing to pay top dollar for information. However, the "packaging" must be perceived as being worth the price you are asking. But before you decide on how to package your information, you must first consider who your primary audience is, and cater to those people in everything you do. FOCUS ON SUBJECT MATERIAL THAT IS SALABLE Information for your subject matter can be found in various places. For the best results, start with your field of expertise and turn it into a book, manual, report or newsletter. Focus on providing your targeted market with simple, understandable, and helpful information. It must overwhelmingly appeal to your customers' wants and desires... Never forget that this is the age of specialized information. People are completely willing to spend their money for tens of thousands of different forms of information, provided it is useful to them. Your job is to either find a need and fill it, or create the need and supply it. One of the best ways to get started is to sit down with some paper and write down every subject you have some degree of knowledge about. Your list of subject doesn't have to be in any particular order. Don't force it. When ideas for headings no longer come easy, stop and start up again at a later time. When you feel comfortable that you have covered most of the areas you know, start picking out the topics that interest you the most. Then you can start researching more material for your writing projects. FILL YOUR MATERIAL WITH SELF-INTEREST BENEFITS Many new writers fail to understand that if they expect any hope for business survival, let alone success, they must come to realize early on that a big part of their job is to arouse the emotions and desires of their customers. Your product, whether a boo, manual, report or newsletter, must be portrayed as being jam-packed with self-interest benefits. Millions of dollars in failed business ventures are wasted every year simply because entrepreneurs fail to understand that what customers want to hear is not necessarily what they have to say. You should never forget this valuable lesson. It can make you rich! YOUR MATERIAL MUST STIR EMOTIONS AND DESIRES Emotions are what move people to buy anything.

PART 1 from a South African Perspective information.
People are completely willing to spend their money for tens of
thousands of different forms of information, provided it is useful
to them. Your job is to either find a need and fill it, or create
the need and supply it. One of the best ways to get started is to
sit down with some paper and write down every subject you have some

feel comfortable that you have covered most of the areas you know,
start picking out the topics that interest you the most. Then you
can start researching more material for your writing projects.These days its extremely difficult to distinguish between ethical and unethical advertising, the line between is so fine that the interpretation of it is ultimately left up to the consumer to make the decision. The closer the advertising pitch is to controversial, funnily enough, the more consumers find it appealing, get suckered in and after its too late realise the consequences. Blatant trickery in advertising in my opinion constitutes fraud and these companies should have the whole book flung at them.Two of the biggest markets are woman and kids. The amount of money made from these two sectors runs into billions each year and companies know exactly how to tug on those purse strings. I don't believe that you could ever eradicate companies that sell products that are less than acceptable; e.g., alcohol and cigarette products. To put the whole blame on advertising companies alone would be an injustice to them. Why would companies resort to subtle advertising tactics to sell products to kids, their attempts to do this is just a waste of time and money when they know very well that to sell products to kids you just have to be straight forward. The subtle side of the deal is directed at the parents who open up the wallets and pay. Parents are the ones that need to be subtly deceived because most of the time they are ultimately the decision makers. Parents need to run their kids like a business, especially when it comes to their finances. Proper reports on how they spend ' family-comapany' money should be a priority.

BASIC ADVERTISING RULES Effective marketing is a vast field. It includes using marketing tools such as: direct mail; space and classified ads; signs; radio and TV commercials; business involvement, and more. In fact, the approaches you can take and the methods you use are only limited by your imagination and resources. There are basic rules however that do not change however. They are as follows: Rule No. 1-You must get a prospects ATTENTION. (Your headline is the most important part of an advertisement.) Rule No. 2-You must create reader INTEREST (Your ad should be built around an idea that offers value.) Rule No. 3-You must arouse the reader's DESIRE. (By focusing on all the benefits they will receive.) Rule No. 4-Your ad must move them to ACT. (Tell your readers exactly what it is you what them to do.) In order to avoid making careless advertising decisions that can cost you money, it is important that you understand and participate in your own strategies. That means getting involved and researching what strategy will produce sound advertising. It is essential that you have a plan before you take action on developing an advertising strategy. Your plan must be based on an objective analysis that resulted from your knowledge and it doesn't matter what your background is, you can learn to master the type of mail order advertising that is needed to launch a self-publishing business. Through research and careful planning you can become familiar with the writing skills you will need to create effective ads. Obtain all the information you can from the masters in the business. Read and study every book, manual, report, newsletter, sales letter, ad, article, and publication you can get your hands on that will help you in developing your own successful strategies and techniques. Then bring all of that knowledge together to obtain winning results. 10 MONEY-MAKING REASONS WHY SELF-PUBLISHING IS THE BEST CHOICE you become a "self-publisher" by taking your material (book, manual, report, newsletter, etc.) and by-pass all the middlemen. You by-pass the middlemen, by going directly to a printer and handling all the marketing and distribution of the product yourself. As a self-publisher you invest your talent, time and energy and money. The benefits you receive are complete control over your product and all the profits~ here are a condensed version of 10 good reasons why you should self-publish: 1) Self-publishing may be the only way to get published. With thousands upon thousands of manuscripts, etc. being sent to publishers continually you may not be able to get to anyone to even look at your idea. Self-publishing may be your only solution. 2) As a self-publisher you get to keep all of the profits from your sales. Why accept 45-6% in royalties from a publishing company when you can have it all! 3) You have absolute marketing and editing control when you self-publish. According to A Writer's Digest poll, 60% of the big publishing firms do the final editing; 23% select the final title; 20% will not even consult an author on the cover design, and 37% do not involve authors in promoting their own material. 4) Major publishers may receive up to several hundred manuscripts a week. Unless they have already published your work, the odds they will even look at your material aren't very high. 5) When you self-publish you are in control every step of the way.
