THIS INFORMATION IS VALUABLE FOR FOLLOWUP LATER

  1. Wear appropriate attire. Many events will advertise a dress code. A business event which indicates “cocktail attire” is not the time to roll out a short or tight dress, significant cleavage, or four-inch heels (unless you are comfortable in high heels). Take a cue from young women who speak at formal political events, or female business executives. Their attire is always tasteful and classic with no potential for wardrobe malfunction.
  2. Be curious. Your goal is to find out about someone else using those obnoxious listening skills we discussed. Ask questions and listen more than talk. Remember, the object of networking is to get to know people, not collect as many business cards as possible.
  3. Be prepared. Have a couple conversation starters that can be used in most situations. For example: “Tell me how you came to be here this evening,” or, “How about those (insert local sports team here)?” If you are networking solo, look for “open” body language or other solo people to start a conversation. I am often able to strike up conversations in lines for food or the bar as well.
  4. Have an exit strategy. If you find yourself ready to exit a conversation, you can excuse yourself to the restroom. You can also comment that there were a few other people you were planning to meet at this event. A good way to end the conversation is to say: “It was great talking to you. I know you are here to meet other people also, so I won’t take up any more of your time. If there is anything I can do for you, please let me know,” as you hand them a business card.
  5. Take notes. Do this after the event or in an unobtrusive place such as the restroom. Please don’t take notes while talking! Who you met, work items discussed, personal information, and any stories shared should all be included in your notes. This information is valuable for follow-up later.

It Does Not Require Trendlines Or Other Indicators To Be Able To Project Future Moves

( The picture was taken from: http://www.technicaltradingindicators.com/tradestation- indicator s/83-candlestick-patterns/) Depending on the time frame, a candle like Hammer or Shooting Star can be a clear reversal signal as it shows enormous buying/selling pressure on the coin. It does not require trendlines or other indicators to be able to project future moves, especially if the candle was formed on a daily time frame or higher. Another very important single candle you will need is the one that appears during a blow-off top or capitulation. Those two are the reversal points in a trend, where the price makes an explosive move which then very quickly retraces. It is an indicator of a buying/selling climax that is followed by other people leaving or entering the market in an accelerated movement. A candle like this usually is massive and has a long wick which is later followed by another few candles that represent this accelerated buying/selling. Candles can also create...

But Now We Are Also Making 300 Per Day In Net Profit

But Now We Are Also Making 300 Per Day In Net Profit Here’s an example… Let’s say you’re selling a product that costs $100, and you’re making $30 profit on every sale (before calculating your advertising expense). Now let’s say you’re cost per sale in AdWords is $10. So you’re paying $10 to make $30 – a net profit of $20 per sale. Not too bad. Let’s also say you are able to make five sales per day like this. So you’re spending $50 per day and your net profit is $100 per day. You try to increase your budget but you don’t get any extra traffic…you’re still only spending $50 per day. With your current campaign settings, you’re getting all the sales you can get for $10 per conversion. So let’s adjust some things. We can improve the click-through-rate, get rid of some segments of under-performing traffic, increase the ad position, focus on maximizing our best-performing traffic. After all these changes, let’s say we were able to increase our sales from five pe...
