    t mail piece I receive in the mail is filled with "I", "me," "our," and "we."

There is a lot of repetitive and mechanical stuff to do to make sure that everyone gets notified and signed up on time. The Biggest Problems with Manual Systems: Mail, Fa
    One of the biggest marketing mistakes I see constantly, in the newspaper, on the web, within company brochures, is the missing word: YOU.

    I cringe as I notice how enthralled these companies are with themselves. For instance, a sales letter I received late last year stated:

    ==> "We have been in business for 10 years"

    ==> "We’re having a sales contest to see how many we can sell"

    ==> "We have won many awards…"

    ==> "We serve clients in the Los Angeles area"

    Now, I hope you’re thinking what I'm thinking... "WHO CARES?"

    Right?

    There isn’t any mention of anything that benefits me. It speaks only of themselves with a proud self-serving tone.

    Why would I do business with someone that doesn't care enough to learn more about my needs, wants, and desires?

    This business was too busy telling me about them and not enough about the customer.

    They’re not alone, however.

    Almost every direct mail piece I receive in the mail is filled with "I", "me," "our," and "we."

    Now, it's really not all that practical to write a letter without saying "I," "we," or "our" - but you should certainly have the word "YOU" 5 or 6 six times

    Tips on Starting a Day Care Business
    Every day more and more families are relying on day care centers to look after their young children as they go about their daily tasks. There's an urgent need for day care centers in many communities because more and more mothers with pre-schoolers now have to find jobs outside the home. Starting a day care business - Getting Started letter I received late last year stated:

    ==> "We have been in business for 10 years"

    ==> "We’re having a sales contest to see how many we can sell"

    ==> "We have won many awards…"

    Over Delivering Provides Big Results
    Over promising is a problem only when you under deliver. There are a number of ways that you can overdeliver to your customers or prospects, and as a result create a win-win situation for you both. They will be provided with some additional value, while you will be upgrading your learning around a particular issue, adding another product or service to your
    t mail piece I receive in the mail is filled with "I", "me," "our," and "we."

    Now, it's really not all that practical to write a letter without saying "I," "we," or "our" - but you should certainly have the word "YOU" 5 or 6 six times for every reference to "us" or "my" company.

    Here are some examples of how you can easily change the way you present yourself from a "ME" mentality to a "YOU" attitude."

    Instead of: “I am pleased to tell you..." ==> Say: "You will be pleased to discover..."

    Instead of: "Our staff is experienced..." ==> Say: "Your will be handled by qualified, experienced people who can answer just about any area of expertise..."

    Instead of: "We sell only quality products..." ==> Say: "You will love the XR250 model or you will receive double your money back!"

    Does the wording make more sense?

    When you write a sales letter, copy for a website or email, put yourself in the mindset of the reader of your letter.

    You should constantly say to yourself:

    "If I were the customer, why would I be interested in this…?”

    It's the oldest lesson in sales. Maybe you've heard it this way: "What's the radio station everyone
