How to Get Past the Gatekeeper When Cold Calling

pa href='http://rss.buysellads.com/click.php?z=1259904k=f7b7931ec28da9e4ff2580bfd4eddb18a=30553c=1166985919' target='_blank'

pPart of being a freelancer is persistence: a href="http://freelanceswitch.com/the-business-of-freelancing/freelancing-911-turn-your-business-around-with-cold-calls/"cold calling/a, checking up on a pitch, or setting up an interview with an important source all take a bit of determination to pull off successfully. But often, an obstacle lies in your way: someone who?s job it is to protect the person you need from such calls./p
pPreviously, just a voice on the phone, today?s emgatekeepers/em have a much wider reach: they filter phone calls and email, shield the recipient from tweets and other social media, and sift through their snail mail. But the result is still the same, they make it difficult for you to get through./p
pIt can certainly be frustrating, but getting angry won?t further your career, nor will giving up completely. If you really need to get through to someone, try these ways to soften the gatekeeper:/p
ul
listrongStay polite/strong: No matter how terse the gatekeeper may act, remain polite and unruffled. Eventually, he or she will feel guilty behaving nastily to someone with such good manners, and they?re bound to soften a bit./li
listrongGet on their level/strong: Verbally recognize that you know they?re just doing their job. Suggest that if they just pass along your message, or set up an appointment, you?d be happy to get out of their hair./li
pspan id="more-30553"/span/p
listrongWork with them/strong: Ask how you can better accommodate them ? when would they like you to call back?� What is Mr. X?s preferred method to set up a meeting?/li
listrongButter them up/strong: A gift can warm the heart of anyone. Take advantage of a nearby holiday or seasonal specialty to break down barriers./li
listrongGet personal/strong: If you have a way with wit, try a lighthearted approach to warm your chilly reception. Or try to tap into a mutual interest or connection./li
/ul
pIt?s frustrating to make repeated efforts to get through to someone, only to be shut down. Remember that showing your annoyance, either verbally or written, is seldom going to help your cause. If you feel like you?re about to burn a bridge, step away from the situation and give yourself time to cool off./p
pIf the gatekeeper won?t budge, seek an alternate route: try to connect through someone else at that company, or hook up with your source through a professional organization. Or, wait a couple months, then try again. Perhaps a change in staffing or vacation will mix up the people you deal with. Finally, if nothing works, it may be time to put your energy elsewhere. Perhaps you?ll cross paths with this person informally some other time./p
pWhat successful tactics have you used to get past the gatekeeper and through to the person you want to connect with?/p

Marketing Your Website Without Search Engines

I’m not old enough to remember what the internet was like without search engines. Apparently,�there were lists of web-servers: they were manually updated and publicized in news updates like this. And then the search engines came crawling, indexing and sorting out�pages. As the web expanded with more users and businesses putting up websites, search engines [...]

3 Tips on How Freelance Writers Can Use Webinars To Expand Their Reach

pa href='http://rss.buysellads.com/click.php?z=1259904k=f7b7931ec28da9e4ff2580bfd4eddb18a=29058c=626173697' target='_blank'
img src='http://rss.buysellads.com/img.php?z=1259904k=f7b7931ec28da9e4ff2580bfd4eddb18a=29058c=626173697' border='0' alt='' //a/pbr /pimg src="http://freelanceswitch.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/photodune-1293827-webinar-internet-education-concept-s.jpg" alt="" title="webinar - internet education concept" width="550" height="197" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-29084" //p
pIn the world of freelance writing, where competition can be fierce, it is critical to separate oneself and highlight talents, skills and abilities. a href="http://freelanceswitch.com/money/webinar-information-products/"Webinars/a are a perfect way to accomplish this, but before you wade into the world of online training, here are three tips to keep in mind./p
h31. Plan Out Exactly What You Want to Accomplish in the Webinar/h3
pDo you want to demonstrate a particular writing expertise? Do you wish to highlight your technical writing prowess? Do you want to market a new tool that can help people in some way? Be clear as to what you want the webinar to accomplish and how you will use the webinar to do that.span id="more-29058"/span/p
blockquote class="pullquote"pAlong with the planning, as well, will go practice and lots of it./p/blockquote
pAlong with strategic planning is practical planning. How long do you wish the webinar to last? There are different schools of thought. Some would say a quick 30 minute webinar is perfect because it limits the amount of time that technical issues can happen and also allows for easy upload to online sharing sites such as YouTube./p
pOthers would say a longer webinar makes more sense in order to demonstrate expertise thoroughly�and also allow for a fair amount of time for questions. The length of the webinar will depend again on what you want to accomplish. A quick marketing webinar is remarkably different than a longer educational presentation./p
pAlong with the planning, as well, will go practice and lots of it. Whether you gather a group of friends to do a run-through or get a group of colleagues to do a 15-20 minute question and answer period with you, you will want to practice the webinar several times. This will ensure that you are familiar with the webinar platform you are using, you are comfortable with the content, and that you work out any sound and technical issues. It also ensures that you can time the webinar so that it is in line with the amount of time you?re allotting to accomplish your goals./p
h32. Incorporate Social Media and other Marketing Tools to Advertise Your Webinar/h3
pYou can market a webinar anywhere from a few weeks in advance to several months in advance. Depending on what kind of access you have to large audiences, you may not need as much lead time, than if you have to spend a portion of the marketing looking to partner with groups that have the customers and clients you?re seeking to attract. You?ll want to utilize social media in your marketing, and cross post between different social media platforms./p
blockquote class="pullquote pqRight"pYou?ll want to utilize social media in your marketing, and cross post between different social media platforms./p/blockquote
pThe key to marketing is to get the word out to groups who will want to utilize your freelance skills. So once you set the date for the webinar, be sure that you cross post the link for the webinar in other blogs that you write for, on twitter, facebook, LinkedIn, and via your email marketing lists. And if you don?t have a large email list, reach out to colleagues who will either be willing to post information about your webinar to their email lists, or help you find other groups who will be interested in spreading the word. The individuals or organizations that you reach out to for marketing purposes should be true champions./p
pNothing is worse than approaching ten different groups/individuals, all of whom assure you that they will vigorously promote your webinar, only to have three people actually register for your program. The entities that you approach to help you market your webinar should be those individuals or groups that already believe in what you do, and so will have an investment in letting their constituents know about your webinar, how it will be of help to them, and assure them that it will be a terrific experience because they have experienced first-hand that you?re talented and fantastic!/p
pYour pre-webinar marketing efforts should go right up until the day of the webinar. Send out reminder emails, keep putting links to the webinar in blog posts you write, send out reminder emails to your mailing lists, and touch-base with your champions to continue to get the word out. Cross promotion, continuous promotion, and consistent promotion are the keys to getting your webinar filled with potential clients./p
h33. Incorporate Post-Webinar Follow-up in Your Planning/h3
pOnce the webinar has finished, there is still work to be done. Webinars routinely have a low conversion rate. So if you have 150 people registered and 50 actually attend, that may actually be a succesful attendance percentage. So what about those other 100 that didn?t show up?/p
pIf you?re recording the webinar, and hopefully you are, you can make the recording available to those that registered but did not attend. Some webinar providers like to limit the amount of time you can listen to a recording to 24 or 48 hours. Just because an individual registered but did not attend, doesn?t mean that they?re not interested in your content. If anything, they maybe more interested than individuals that attended, and will be exceedingly pleased that they have the opportunity to experience the recording./p
blockquote class="pullquote"pYou will want to look at the data from the webinar, which will show you how engaged individual participants were. /p/blockquote
pFor individuals who were in attendance, you?ll clearly want to follow-up with them as well. This population is one that you?ll want to cultivate over the next few weeks through helpful content, information about your freelance work, examples of your writing, product, and skills./p
pYou will want to look at the data from the webinar, which will show you how engaged individual participatants were. The data from the webinar will also indicate what similarities you can gather from your webinar participants./p
pA post-webinar survey would be helpful. You may find intriguing information out that will make your marketing efforts be more targeted the next time. Finally, thank all of your champions who helped get the word out and figure out ways to reward them in the future for assisting you in making your webinar a massive success!/p
