Like real estate, your pixel estate has your campus with specific PLACE for every pixel structure. Your pixel estate is blueprinted by systems architects, your pixel assets are built by skilled developers. A very special place called home page is the gateway to your campus on pixel estate.

Parthiv is working with his guide Dr. Stephen Roulac on developing an algorithm and comparison model that will help business owners decide what their pixel estate portfolio could be.

A prayer for The Entrepreneur

Posted by Parthiv Shah on Jul 3, 2018 10:01:06 PM

For the next one thousand days...

This is a true story. In February of 2002, when I left J.M. Perrone, Inc. to start ListLaunchers, we had a prayer ceremony at our new offices just before we actually moved into the office. There, sitting on the floor, in the presence of my family, friends and some business associates, the priest said the following prayer (I still remember every word of it as if it were yesterday):

Business Kamasutra: From Persuasion to Pleasure. The art of data and business relations.

Posted by Parthiv Shah on May 30, 2018 5:04:31 PM

Kamasutra: The concept of adding pleasure to a relationship

Historians say the Kamasutra was composed between 400 BCE and 200 CE. The Kama Sutra is the oldest and most notable of a group of texts known generically as Kama Shastra (Sanskrit: Kāma Śāstra).

In my book, Business Kamasutra: From Persuasion to Pleasure I draw parallels between how humans meet, date & mate and how companies prospect, pitch and close.

When I talk to a new prospect about data science, data intelligence and data driven decision making, they usually don’t understand me. No one wants to have a small talk about big data. Dan Kennedy encouraged me to write a book several years ago, when I attended the TRUST BASED MARKETING event. But no one wanted to read a book called “Don’t Waste Data”.

What is wrong with your salesFunnel?

Posted by Parthiv Shah on May 30, 2018 4:38:09 PM

 

Success is Not An Accident. It takes measured efforts to get measurable results.

 Shortcomings of Traditional sales funnel: In a traditional sales funnel, you spend money to drive qualified traffic to the top of your sales funnel and prospects ‘drop off’ as you lead them through the qualifying and closing process. The problem is, people don’t always behave in the sequence you plan. Therefore, there is tremendous pressure on your prospect and on your sales force to quickly and efficiently ‘go through your process’ so they can either buy something or leave your ecosystem. This causes loss of valuable data.

Have You Earned The Right To Ask Them for Referrals?

If there are diamonds in your database that can be found, polished & built into a necklace called your customer database, this document will talk about how to transform your existing relationship with customers & patients into an endless source of referrals.

This subject is very close to my heart and I have learned every trick of the trade that I could get my hands on. I am constantly looking for and studying new ways to seek referrals, affiliations and ‘JV’s from noncompeting businesses who call on the
same clients. The concept is actually simple and we all practice it in some way shape or form in our business. We just took the best practices from everywhere and standardized it to create a turnkey system that you can implement in your business.
