Today
was obviously NOT my day to get any computer
or
online work done. Between lightning storms,
pouring
rain, thunder and having to keep shutting
down my
computer and unplugging the cable line
and
taking my Mom to the dentist, it finally
cleared
up enough for me to attempt to do the
ezine
and WHAM! Power went out. Things are off
and on
right now so I am on to get this issue
out to
you and will probably spend the rest
of the
eveing doing - gag me - Domestic Goddess
stuff
that does not entail having anything
valueable
plugged in, lol. Lucky me!

latest news and tips, etc. are on my blog

Getting
Clients by PULLING Them to You
by
Jennifer Davey
In
order to PULL clients to your business you need
to
speak specifically to your target market and tell
them
how your service will work for them. In other
words,
let them know the results they will get.
One way
to tout the benefits of working with you is
to turn
your business features into business benefits.
Every
business offers features to clients.
Features
are nice, but they are more about you
and
your process than about your clients.
Offering
a feature such as a “one hour start up
consultation”
is great, but it doesn’t let the
potential
client envision how your business will
work
for them. Creating benefits from features
shows
clients what’s in it for them. When you let
your
clients know the BENEFITS of working with you,
it’s
easy to PULL them to you.
So how
do you create a benefit from a feature?
By
asking the question “Why would my client care?”
So
let’s walk though a few examples.
Feature
- one hour start up consultation
Question
- “Why would my clients care that I offer
a one
hour start up consultation?”
Benefit
/Answer - The one hour consultation gives
my
clients a jumpstart on getting clients.
Feature
- my clients receive recordings of each session
Question
- “Why would my clients care that I offer
a
recording of each session?”
Benefit
/Answer - clients can fully participate
in the
moment and review the important information
we will
discuss later, so they don’t miss anything.
Being
clear on the benefits of your features
and the
benefits of working with you will help
you
create compelling copy that motivates clients
to take
action and call you.

Protection
from the FLU
Dr.
Weil was right:
Astragalus
herb really helps fight the flu (influenza)
Here's
what the experts have to say about
astragalus
and influenza...
Astragalus
beats the flu
Clinical
Applications: Astragalus is antiviral, carminative,
antispasmodic,
and hepatic. It improves glucose tolerance
and
acts as a vasodilator. In China, astragalus has been
used as
an energy tonic for deficient spleen qi and yang
conditions.
It has been used to treat wasting and thirsting
conditions,
as well as diarrhea, fatigue, and prolapse of
the
uterus. Astragalus is used to control fluids in cases
of
excess sweating and to reduce fluid retention.
Fundamentals
of Naturopathic Endocrinology
by
Michael Friedman, ND
Other
Chinese doctors have found that astragalus offers
more
effective relief than the drug nifedipine (Procardia)
for
angina pain. More than 80 percent of angina patients
improved
on astragalus treatment without the dizziness,
giddiness,
heartburn, or headache that nifedipine can cause.
Animal
studies suggest that astragalus can help prevent
the
development of cholesterol plaques after an arterial
wall
has been damaged, which can keep the coronary
arteries
from becoming too narrow. Astragalus also
is
useful in the treatment of viral myocarditis,
a
flulike infection that affects the heart.
Prescription
for Herbal Healing:
An
Easy-to-Use A-Z Reference to Hundreds
of
Common Disorders and Their Herbal Remedies
by
Phyllis A. Balch, CNC
Also,
since flu vaccines are formulated based on viruses
that
have caused outbreaks in the past, they may or may
not be
effective in preventing flu caused by this year's
virus.
Astragalus helps to build the immune
system,
and
thus make you less vulnerable to the flu.
Take
250 to 500 milligrams in the morning three times a week
during
the flu season. Note: Do not take this herb if you
have a
fever. American ginseng helps to boost
the immune
system
and strengthen the body. Take 200 milligrams
one-half
hour before breakfast once or twice a week
during
the winter months.
Smart
Medicine for Healthier Living :
Practical
A-Z Reference to Natural and Conventional
Treatments
for Adults
by
Janet Zand, LAc, OMD, Allan N. Spreed, MD, CNC,
James
B. LaValle, RPh, ND
Consider
taking ginseng or astragalus to promote
health,
stamina,
and viral immunity. Take colostrum, beta-glucan,
and
other immune-boosting supplements. Take extra vitamin C
and
zinc. Follow the recommendations in this book on how to
take
natural medicines for beating the flu. For frail,
older
people, reduce the dosage by half.

Quote
Be of
good cheer. Do not think of today's failures,
but of
the success that may come tomorrow. You have
set
yourselves a difficult task, but you will succeed
if you
persevere; and you will find a joy
in
overcoming obstacles.
--
Helen Keller (1880-1968) American Writer
