Affirmation For Manifestation
April 18, 2010
There are many who will claim that affirmation does not work but I will dare to challenge the opinions of the sceptics . Just because an affirmation does not immediately manifest does not mean it is futile. One must first understand why and how affirmation works before one casts doubts on it credence.
For those who are new to the subject, let me clearly state that affirmatons are set of definite positive statements you repeat silently and frequently to yourself about things you want to see manifest in your life. I recently produced a set of affirmation statements for a client that needed support to become more positive about herself and her business which I will share with you to give you an insight into what affirmation statements are and how they should be put together. Affirmation statements should always be in the positive and in the present tense. Moreover, it should be believable so that the subconscious mind can accept the statements and go to work on it.
Examples of affirmation statements
I am now creating a successful business doing what I love to do.
I am now taking steps to learn all the skills I need to run a profitable and successful business
I am now creating sales income of xxxxxxxxxxxx per month and my business is growing steadily each month.
I am now creating a profitable business as my expenses are well below my income
I now think and act positively consistently at home, in my business and with my external relationships
I believe in my self and I am confident that the universe supports me in all my affairs
I am supported by the universe and I am one with the universal intelligence that creates all things abundantly around me and through me.
I have faith that what so ever I do will succeed. I simply ask the universe, believe that what I have asked is on it way to me and accept all good things that come to me speedily.
I am directed and guided by the universe and I have complete faith in the universe.
I love, value and respect my family and they love, value and respect me too.
I love, value and respect my customers and they love, value and respect me too.
I am paid well for the services I provide my customers and I serve my customers with passion and love
I am now taking steps to become financially astute and I now begin to make wise decisions about money matters
Nothing but the best comes into my life because I am the best at what I do and I am respected in my sector.
I am harmonious, perfect, wise, whole, complete and intelligent. I make wise and intelligent decisions.
I am at peace with myself, my family and the rest of the world and I am living a healthy and blissful life.
I now let go of all past negativity and fully embrace positive thinking and the best the universe has to offer me.
Money is good, money is energy, money now comes freely into my life through my services and unexpected channels.
Affirmation works because, we are spiritual being and the “I” that speaks is spirit and is all creative and powerful. This “I” is one with the universal mind which is omnipotent, all knowing and intelligent and all powerful and creative. When this “I” says I am harmonious, it directs the mind (which is the tool within used in the creative process), to create the mental pictures of harmony which in turns attract the resources and events to create harmony in our surroundings. We may not understand how this work in detailed but persistence, patience, faith and continuous repetition of affirmation statements will soon manifest in physical form. The speed of manifestation will depend on how persistence the individual is backed by their faith and emotions surrounding that which is affirmed. So, if there is something you truly desire to change in your world, why not start affirming it.
To learn more about affirmations and how to use them to improve your business, check out chapter 6 of my book titled “My Business Is My Business”. This chapter covers information about the laws of the universe and it relationship to the power of the mind. You will learn that when a great teacher says that we will be accountable for every word spoken, the truth of his statement was not understood by many at the time (and even now) because only few people in the world understand the relationship between spirit, mind and physical manifestation.

Marketing Online and Offline- Get More Traffic To Your Website and Your Office
April 5, 2010
Marketing online requires you to understand what works and don’t work online. For a start, there are very few website designers with an understanding of online marketing. The mistake many entrepreneurs make is to delude themselves that they only need to spend a lot of money on the website design and away they go, customers will come flooding in. Is this what you think as well? I dare say you would have learnt the truth by now. Before you start falling in love with your website, please make sure you are clear about:
1. Who your market is and what they want as solution to their problems- check your business plan
2. Who your market is and what they want and need as solution to their problems- check your business plan
3. What benefit your services and products offer the target market in solving their problems- check your business plan
4. How does your target market search for the answers to their problems on search engines such as Google and Yahoo – in short what keyword phrases are they using to search for solutions and this must be provable not what you think they are using. There are tools you can use to find this very quickly.
Armed with these answers, your next task is to ensure your website is set up with the relevant key word phrases in your domain (e.g. pet-sitters-help.co.uk for a pet-sitting business) and sales letters. You also need to ensure that you take steps to promote your website to relevant directories with a high page ranking using SEO service provides that offer services in directory submission, article submission, social bookmarks, social media, link exchange and video directory submission. All of these various submissions have their dos and don’ts and it is important you understand how to do this yourself without breaking your bank accounts and/or get one of our SEO experts of BSS Online Marketing to assist you achieve your goals without breaking your bank accounts.
Now, here is the deal, never use a SEO service provider who is not recommended by a third party. Remember, the quickest way to go out of business is to run out of money. If you spend all your capital on marketing that don’t generate positive returns for you, I am sure you know what will be the outcome to your business.
A great business is one with great products and services that are well supported by an effective marketing system. If you truly want your business to grow the two areas you must never undermine is ideas generation and development, as well as marketing and sales. Get yourself educated in these areas and you will be good to go.
Marketing as you know need not be reduced to online marketing. It should be both online and offline. The rules governing effective online marketing is only partly explained here as we are only looking at strategies for traffic generation and sales conversion. However, you must also be aware that driving traffic to your site does not necessarily mean you will generate sales. Sales are a function of:
1. The products and services on offer and how well they are presented online to address the needs and wants of your market – specifically offering them benefits that are deemed valuable.
2. The prices of your services and products compared to competitors- and this includes shipping costs and other costs incurred by the prospects.
3. The professionalism and accessibility of your services and products. In short, can the prospects reach someone in your customer services department or reception easily on the phone or by e-mail? It is for this reason we partner with a number of organisations to offer you virtual office and phone services at competitive prices.
4. How confident and trustworthy your business appears to the prospects and much more. Using a PO Box as a business address is a No, No. Asking for payment online by Western Union and refusing to take payment by credit card or PayPal is a sure recipe for lose the trust of your prospects and customers.
So when you are looking at traffic generation and sales conversion, don’t forget to review all other aspects of the marketing equation.
