主角重生王爷的小说:发自内心的英文

I have fun playing Texas Hold 'Em with friends. Did you know that playing the game or watching shows like World Tour Of Poker can help you succeed in business? I didn't realize that while I was learning to play, I was gaining valuable business skills that have translated into money in my pocket. No,2011 Gucci Bags, not by gambling money away. :) Let me show you what I mean. I learned four things from playing poker.

First,Replica Louis Vuitton For Cheap, I learned how to make the best of the cards I was dealt. I learned when to play a hand, when to take risks,Louis Vuitton Jewellery, and when to throw the cards away and wait to act with better ones. This kind of discernment helps a business owner make sound decisions about working with assets and when to cut a project loose if it's not producing good results. I found that when starting your own business, you will invest 2 assets-your time and your money. Depending on where you start, you'll use one of these assets more than the other. A realistic understanding of which asset you're working from can help you make the most of what you've got.

The second lesson I learned from poker is that you've got to use a strategy to win. Good players spend years learning from each other and developing a strategy that's right for them. Their strategy is reliable and flexible enough to adapt to new situations. They learn something new from each game, and they actively look for the lessons when they lose a hand. They know how much they're willing to bet in an evening, and they aren't pushed off course by setbacks because their strategy takes the slow time into account.

The third lesson I learned is that while I must understand the cards I've got, I must watch my competition and adjust what I'm doing accordingly. If I have a solid straight in my hand, I still need to watch my fellow players because one of them might have a straight flush. If you only focus on your hand, you may end up broke in no time flat. Even if you've got an awesome product, don't fool yourself into thinking you've beaten your competition. In business, there are always going to be people who want to move into your market. People are actively creating new products and services, and yours could be left in the dust if you aren't paying attention. The difference here is that you may find that good strategies include partnering with your competitors and funding joint ventures. Unlike poker,Gucci Luggage, you both can win.

The last and most important lesson I learned from playing poker is that risk isn't the four-letter word! Risk is a good thing if you have studied your competition and know you have a good hand. The reality of business is that you will have to do some things you've never done before or that make you feel nervous. This is a good thing because you become a better person once you push through your fear of taking a risk. I used to worry about what would happen if I lost a bet. I played to prevent losing instead of playing to win. There's a big difference between those things. Playing to win means putting yourself out there, letting people know you've got a good product or service. Playing so you won't lose usually results in you losing or barely breaking even because you can't do the very things that cause your business to sky rocket to the top.

In summary, I learned to use my assets well,Gucci Women's Shoes, implement a winning strategy, to respond to my competition, and to push past the fear of losing. Think about other activities you've done over the years. What skills did you learn? How can you use them to build your successful business?

First and foremost, the very first thing you need develop in sales and negations is your confidence.

But be aware of the fools sense of confidence which plagues most salesmen,Louis Vuitton Shirt, and that is the confidence which is based totally on bravado.

Let me explain,Outlet Gucci Sale!

Say you are a physically confident person. You would most likely tell yourself that you could cruise through life and be in total control of any aggressive situation, but when you're put into a situation where you're confronted by someone who's a lot more intellectual than you are, (and I've seen this happen to people), all of a sudden your confidence is taken away. It has nothing to do with your strengths, it has to do with your weaknesses, and all of a sudden your confidence isn't there anymore. When people have a weakness,Louis Vuitton Umbrella, and someone exposes that weakness, you lose total confidence.

Confidence isn't something that you can just label based on a few things. Developing total confidence is a fairly complex subject, and it covers all areas of your life, not just simply the one or two areas that you are already convinced that you do have confidence in. It's all about developing the confidence you need in the areas you are weakest and the areas in which you intend to apply yourself in.

Imagine a boxer that was getting hit a lot because he kept dropping his hands. Straight away his coach would say he needs to keep his hands up and that will stop him getting hit so much. He does this, it works, and now he has more confidence. But what if he had no one to tell him. What do you think would happen to his confidence? Either he will become tougher so that he can take more hits or quit all together, both are a losing situation to be in. So you need a mentor or coach to make sure you develop your confidence the right way.

So what are the right confidences? There are a few, but today I will be discussing technical confidence.

First of all you need to stay in one particular industry and learn as much about that particular industry as possible, so that you can build your technical confidence. Some people think that sales is about going out and faking your way through it with good looks and tricks. What I advise is that you get into a sales career in an industry that you can see a future in,Louis Vuitton Wallet, and something that you will love and enjoy talking to clients or potential customers about, and,2011 Louis Vuitton, stick to it. Put in the time to develop your technical confidence.

Developing confidence in sales at the top level is going to be done over a couple of years. This is not just a fly by night sort of thing that you should be doing to fill in time. Success is something that has to be developed.

So get into an industry that you have a passion for.

Remember you are going to have to sit down one on one with a client and no matter what they ask you, you are going to have to be able to clearly and precisely answer their questions and do it fluently and without hesitation. As the saying goes, "he who hesitates is lost", is very true when applied to sales. People pick up on hesitation and see it as being a weakness, and this is where you find you will lose most of your sales. You need to make sure that you have the knowledge to answer somebody's questions or fulfill their needs and actually give them all the right information in a very controlled and confident manner so that they can make an informed decision.

So you've got to be totally fluent in your knowledge and language of the industry that you are in, and you've got to know your industry extremely well.

If you're selling a particular product such as a motor vehicle, then you better know everything, not just about that vehicle, but also about the oppositions vehicles in the same price range that offer the same type of things. You've got to know the strengths and weaknesses of your opposition's products. That's one step towards gaining technical confidence.

Your mission for this week is to go out and start learning as much about your particular field as possible. Learn the terminology, the slang, the technology and the results of that technology and this will dramatically improve your technical confidence and this will show in your sales performance.

But remember, there are no short cuts, and what you have learned here today is only the first small step of many to becoming a successful salesperson.

Demand for cosmetics and personal care products in general is flourishing, producing great opportunities for suppliers of all labelling products.

One of the driving forces behind this growth is the continual dynamism in the diversity of products in the end-user market,gucci handbags outlet, reports a new study by Frost ￡ Sullivan, the international marketing consulting company.

'The cosmetics and personal care packaging market still displays significant potential for growth, ' says Dr Angela Gunning, research manager at Frost & Sullivan.

Overall, the market for cosmetics and personal care packaging is a mature one, though by no means stagnant, and revenue growth is expected to rise from US$1.74 billion in 1998 to US$2.10 billion by the end of the study period in 2005, mainly fuelled by the progressive diversity of products. Frost & Sullivan's research comprises all those containers that are used for the primary packaging of products within the area of cosmetics and personal care.

Dr Gunning continues: 'The increasing variety of products is tied to the rising diversity of the product' packaging. This triggers the growing need for more flexible production. Due to technological advancements, demands for enhanced flexibility are gradually being met. With a wider range of product designs, it is necessary for machinery to be capable of a larger number of shorter production runs.'

Further factors stimulating growth in the European cosmetics and personal care packaging market include the buoyancy of the age range of the target end-user market and the improvement of the recycling potential of all packaging types.

In its review of product markets, Frost & Sullivan's study confirms the dominance of the plastic bottles sector, accounting for the largest share of all the container types in the cosmetics and personal care packaging market in terms of both volume and revenues. Boosted by the general shift in the market away from glass,Gucci Handbags, the anticipated growth of the male grooming sector and the growing recyclability of plastic bottles, this market is predicted to retain its leading position up to the end of the forecast period.

The growing preference for plastic over glass,2011 Louis Vuitton, recyclability of plastic and the overall rise in the diversity of end-user products have catapulted the plastic jars market into second place. This market has been showing positive growth in recent years and this trend is expected to continue. Meanwhile, awareness of environmental issues,Louis Vuitton Belt, coupled with the development of new market segments for tubes,Gucci bags outlet, coupled with the growth experienced in the market for laminate tubes, are expected to contribute to the continued successful performance of the cosmetics and personal care tubes product sector.

The largest producers of containers for the cosmetics and personal care market in terms of national markets are France and Germany, followed by Italy and the United Kingdom. Containers in the cosmetics and personal care market are increasingly customised and 'made-to-order', and there is a real desire for 'uniqueness' in the packaging of cosmetics and personal care products, Frost & Sullivan's study concludes.
