Marketing In The Moment (Consciously)
It's really all we have... the "Moment". Think about it, the past is only a memory and the future is a speculation. The "Moment" is where it all happens. If we master the "Moment" everything else will fall into place. There are 4 keys to mastering the "Moment" that I use to insure marketing and sales success. 1)Passion- Passion for your product, passion for your company and/or passion for what you are doing. It can be any of these. Be careful on this one because you can't fake passion. Passion is more than intensity and enthusiasm, passion is a love for something. 2)Honesty- Honesty is not a lost art. Honesty is in our true nature and honesty in the "Moment" is a breath of fresh air. It brings down barriers and builds long term relationships. It's a spontaneous commitment to truth. 3)Vigilance- Vigilance in the "Moment" is the silent witness. Vigilance allows passion and honesty to flourish while keeping thoughts of past & future in perspective as points of reference only. Vigilance keeps you present. 4)Presence- Presence is total openness to all and anything that comes at you in the "Moment". Presence absorbs the problems that come up, the good, the bad, the happy and the sad. Presence armed with Vigilance, Honesty and Passion allows clarity in thought and clarity in decision making. Marketing In The Moment(Consciously) simply means being present. And the "present" is the gift.

Sound too good to be true, doesn't it? Fact is, it is true. You do have all the resources you need. All of them. The questions are: how broad is your awareness of these resources which resources are we talking of here? and, for which needs? There are countless resources that each individual possesses. It would be nigh impossible and self-defeating to attempt to discuss and highlight even a quarter of these resources in a short discourse as this one. Let us take a look at a few of the resources you already have to accomplish all the things you want to achieve: Creating Vision You have probably heard it before, or you may even have said it yourself. "Where there is no vision, the people perish". In the absence of a compelling vision, people tend to be stuck in their present circumstances. They wallow in a 'comfort zone' and drift from self-pity to anxiety and anger. Where there is no vision people perish. Vision is neither wishful thinking, nor is it an expression of hope or a modified form of day-dreaming. Vision is the rare ability of standing in the future and looking at the past as it unfolded. While you are standing there, you make decisions from that 'future' (instead of from pressing present circumstances). For some vision is the ability to outline a point of convergence related to their personal focus. This means determining and acknowledging ahead of fact, the destination of one's efforts.
