More Explanation

Build Web Presence:  Set up your Web Marketing Package, with your promotional items to capture visitor's names in your database and affiliate links to the Strategy Store to generate a down-line of customers for commissions on web sales.

The goal is to start building your own web database and set of affiliated customers.

Move Into the Community: Start speaking in front affiliated groups and local business associations. Contact local bookstores and offer a free seminar on Sun Tzu's Art of War as a representative of Clearbridge Publishing, to promote books sales through the store. This also creates a local event for publicity.

The goal is to get speaking dates you can publicize and win your first business training customers.

Give Your First Paid Training: You may have to do this first standard training session at a discount, but your best initial target is a sales organization for a local business. (See our Sales Show under Presentations). View the Sun Tzu Keys to Strategy video seminar at the Strategy School. Make the presentation pay by selling books  to the company hosting the seminar and maybe having a team contest during training and where winning team gets 30% discount on products, for example, on-line Warrior Class training, to generate more individual sales. Get feedback from audience members.

The goal is to get a local reference, and experience in a typical business environment so you can get accredited.

 
Start Writing:  Start writing comments to the Warrior Class Blog posts. Start writing articles on Sun Tzu and strategy for local papers, magazines, especially small and business papers. Start writing your book.

To get confidence, visibility, and feedback about your understanding of strategy.
