Sept 2nd, 2009 workshop for the Sales & Marketing Society of the Midsouth. Presenters: Lori Turner of RedRover Company, and James Hutto of Valeo Design & Marketing.
Welcome to a world of conversations and relationships. Facebook is not an evil time-waster, a community just for college students, or something scary or irrelevant for marketers – even you B2B folks. Facebook is a tool (a social utility, as they would say) for connecting people with those around them. And, as with any social media tool, marketers have an opportunity to use Facebook to expand their online footprint and engage with customers directly.
Topics include:
1) Why social media and Facebook are important
2)Tips for increasing your business presence & engaging with prospects directly on Facebook
3) What to measure and how to track the success of your Facebook programs

Lattice Energy LLC - LENRs and the Future of Energy - Nov 27 2013Lewis Larsen
The Future of Energy --- Low Energy Neutron Reactions or LENRs:
- Represent a new type of paradigm-shifting nuclear technology.
- Differ greatly from present-day fission and fusion power generation technologies; LENRs are potentially much safer from environmental and biosafety perspectives.
- Embody a truly ‘green’ type of nuclear process: neither deadly hard neutron or gamma radiation emissions nor any measurable production of dangerous, long-lived radioactive wastes.
- Phenomena were hidden in plain sight for 100 years because hard radiation signatures and radioactive wastes are absent from LENR processes. With the benefit of today’s knowledge, examination of a large body of available published, peer-reviewed experimental literature shows that reliable reports of LENR effects, e.g. transmutation, date all the way back to the early 1900s.
- Lack of hard radiation emissions and long-lived radioactive wastes obviates need for shielding and containment subsystems; eliminates enormous amounts of weight and could reduce costs dramatically.
- Phenomena resisted understanding until Widom-Larsen theory integrated all the necessary conceptual pieces together into one coherent whole; W-L successfully explains all of the relevant experimental data.
- LENR device physics are now sufficiently well-understood to begin the commercialization process. Better understanding of the relevant physics creates major opportunities to develop safe, battery-like portable LENR power sources. Much larger LENR-based systems utilizing dusty plasma embodiments could also potentially be developed and scaled-up output-wise to reach many megawatts akin to today’s grid-connected central station power plants.
- Large manufacturing companies in Japan now have ongoing LENR R&D programs; list of players presently includes Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Toyota Central Research, and Toyota Motor Company, among others.

Lattice Energy LLC - Synopsis of book titled Fusion Fiasco by Steven Krivit p...Lewis Larsen
Synopsis of Steve Krivit’s book “Fusion Fiasco” in context of the Widom-Larsen theory of LENRs:
By late October 1989 Dr. Edward Teller, ‘father’ of the first Hydrogen bomb, was apparently convinced Pons & Fleischmann had discovered a little-understood nuclear process that could operate in ordinary electrochemical cells. Bizarre absence of deadly hard radiation indicated to him that P&F’s puzzling results probably weren’t caused by a fusion process. After seeing all the ERAB panel’s data, he further speculated that the underlying process was very likely nuclear and possibly catalyzed by “neutral particle of small mass and marginal stability” that was somewhat akin to a neutron. Krivit reveals how his prescient insights were ignored by the DOE ERAB panel and then effectively buried for 27 years.

Young Professionals! What you should know that no one is telling youJames Hutto
Presentation for Jonesboro Young Professionals Network May 6, 2016 by James Hutto @ValeoMarketing
A bit of a different topic here as I covered 5 points that I wish someone had told me when I was early in my career.
I went through the reason why you SHOULDN'T focus on creating a personal brand, and why I think social is overrated for the typical professional and a complete waste of time. Just focus on creating the best product you can - meaning yourself and your work output. The rest will follow naturally if you do that one thing... just like the example I gave about Evernote.
Then I went through my top tips for becoming a more persuasive writer, since *so much* of our communication today is written. Writing is a skill that needs to be practiced, just like playing the piano. And a lot of what we were all taught in school is NOT what you should do in a business environment if you want to maximize your effectiveness. Gave the tip to check out the Hemingway app (www.hemingwayapp.com) for a low LOE way to start editing yourself with my tips.
Becoming a better presenter was also covered, and a detailed discussion about salary negotiations and how you can turn the tables and take control in those situations.
I talked at length about salary negotiations, and I've updated those slides to include the most basic points I was trying to make on each (since you can't hear me talking through this deck, obviously).
I hope you find this helpful if you happen across it. Give me a like or a share if you do!

Two Online Tools Your Lodging Property Should Implement in 2016: Retargeting ...James Hutto
Presentation on 11/2/15 to the Wisconsin Hotel & Lodging Association.
The goal of this session is to give you more leverage - the ability to do more with less effort. Have you seen the banner ads that “follow” you around the Internet? If you’ve ever wondered how that works, or how it can work for your business, then you won’t want to miss this session. Especially considering that retargeting ads can improve your conversion rates up to 600%.
We’ll also cover the difference between email marketing and email nurturing, and why you need to re-think the way you do email messaging to your audiences. Email nurturing can be highly automated, and the goal is to send the right information to the right person, at the right time.

- Funnels
- Conversion rate
- Blog

Finally, as I started to run out of time, we talked about retargeting ad campaigns and then went back to the original "grade" from the beginning of the class and I had everyone develop an action plan for the priorities that they need to focus on for their site.

9. What do we mean by call planning or prep?
There are two waves of call prep – (1) prep for your initial attempt to
land a meeting with a prospect, and (2) prep for the actual in-person
sales call once scheduled. We’ll address both today. Note that in
preparing for your initial phone call, you should have already
completed 90% of your prep for the actual meeting.
Prep for an initial prospect call typically consists of:
Prospect qualification prior to initial phone call
Completion of research prior to initial phone call
Determination of call objectives for in-person meeting
Scripting/rehearsal of both your phone call and in-person meeting
9
10. Why is it important?
Reduce the number of prospects you need to call on by
increasing your success rate with those you do call. How? Do your
homework to prequalify prospects and develop a customized winning
approach to landing the meeting.
Call planning can make the difference in getting the meeting or
not, and in closing the deal or not. If the account has great enough
potential, hours of call planning could be justified.
One opportunity to make a good sales impression. Make it count.
Even if it is just a 15-minute sales call with a decision-maker, that
crucial 15 minutes has to be planned so every minute counts. If it’s
a prospect not worth conducting proper planning for, it’s probably not
worth your time.
How much time do you usually spend planning for a sales call?
10
11. What are you trying to achieve with this initial research?
Identify multiple points of potential connection.
Allow you to get creative in how you approach landing the meeting.
Uncover information that allows you to craft a meaningful “what’s in it
for them” statement.
Arm you with information that will help you overcome objections to
landing the meeting.
11
12. Potential research sources:
Prospect website
Internet search
Social media sites (e.g., LinkedIn, FaceBook, Twitter), including
blogs and other web forums
Common acquaintances (ask around inside your firm, ask friends/
former colleagues, ask within organizations you’re affiliated with,
check social media sites) Note: Encourage call prep at least several
days before calling so that you can fully leverage common
acquaintances.
Conversations with non-competing sales reps also calling on them
Past clients
How to use research: Ensuring it doesn’t sound like you’re simply trying
to prove you did your homework vs. that you’re trying to help them solve
12
a problem, meet a need, etc.

16. Case Study – Commercial Printer
Call Prep – Landing a Difficult Meeting Via Social Media Research
• The Challenge: A commercial printing sales rep had been trying to get his
foot in the door with the communications director at a very large church for
months. He called countless times, sent emails, without any response.
Due to the church’s vigilant gatekeeper, he couldn’t pop by for an
unscheduled visit either.
• The Solution: He researched the prospect via FaceBook
and learned that he was a huge Calvin and Hobbs fan
with a witty sense of humor. The sales rep purchased a
hard-bound Calvin and Hobbs book and attached a
handwritten, cleverly crafted note, written in a Calvin-
and-Hobbs tone, and had it hand couriered directly into
the prospect’s hands.

17. Case Study – Commercial Printer
Call Prep – Landing a Difficult Meeting Via Social Media Research
• The Challenge: This same printing sales rep was trying to get his foot in
the door with a large ad agency. This firm had two production managers,
neither of whom returned the two messages he left. Rather than leave any
more messages, and a negative impression, he decided to get creative.
• The Solution: After researching these production
managers – reviewing months worth of FaceBook wall
posts – and contacting common acquaintances he
identified via LinkedIn, he knew quite a bit about them.
He created a “Tower of Power” gift for each prospect to
get their attention. Five gift boxes, separately wrapped,
were piled to make a tower of presents. The card said
“Here are five reasons to consider working with my firm.”

19. Building an effective relationship is the first step in
positioning yourself as a consultant, rather than a Establishing
salesperson – someone who can solve their business issues Relationship
vs. someone there to sell them. Build a relationship by:
Making a good first impression.
Finding a common point of connection – personal or professional.
Asking questions that demonstrate your understanding of their
business (e.g., their competitors, their market, their customers, business
direction, business challenges).
Delivering short elevator pitch.
Restating the meeting objective to remind them what’s in it for them to
engage in the discussion with you.
The whole point of this phase is to build trust and rapport. It’s also to
engage them with a compelling elevator pitch and meeting objective which
can set a positive or negative tone for the entire conversation. 19
20. Why Referrals Are Golden
The act of referring you to others is validation of your value.
When you meet the potential client, the relationship is half-formed.
When you meet the potential client, the engagement is half-sold.
Referral generation can produce one of the highest returns of your
sales and marketing investment.
Referrals can generate some of the highest
quality and most loyal clients.
20
21. Tips for Generating Golden Referrals
Frequency of the Ask – You have to take accountability for regularly
giving your best customers the opportunity to refer business. Don’t
bombard the same people too often, but if you just ask once, you’re
leaving business on the table. Identify specific referral opportunities
through LinkedIn and FaceBook – who do they know that you want to
know?
What To Do with New Referrals – Reward referral behavior quickly and
generously to encourage more of the same. At a minimum, send them a
handwritten thank you card with a note outlining your first contact with the
person they referred.
To get referrals, give referrals. There’s nothing like leading by example.
21
22. Tips for Generating Golden Referrals, cont.
Giving someone a referral is very different from providing a contact
name (or a lead). “You should call John Smith. He’s looking for someone
to help with his taxes. Feel free to use my name.” This isn’t a referral. It’s
simply passing along a contact name. It’s not nearly as effective as
having your customer pick up the phone, call John, and tell him about
you and your firm. Help the “referee” understand what you’re looking for:
Three-party lunch.
Phone recommendation with suggestion that the prospect meets you,
followed by a call from you.
Introduction at specific upcoming networking event.
Email introduction and recommendation, with suggestion that the two
of you meet, where you’re copied.
Virtual introduction via LinkedIn.
22
23. Tips for Generating Golden Referrals, cont.
Coach them to warm it up – give them very simple sales language:
“That’s great. I appreciate you recommending Susan. The easiest thing to
tell her is that: you’re pleased with the work we’ve been doing and I
specialize in helping service firms like yours develop strategies for cutting
expenses, you recommend that she have a brief conversation with me,
and would it be okay if I gave her a call in the near future?”
Keep control of the process: “Thanks for doing that. Oh, and when
would be a good time for me to get back in touch with you to see if she
would like me to give her a call?”
23
24. Increase your brand's visibility and your own
credibility as a subject matter expert.
Create a simple company page where all
employees link to it via LinkedIn.
Indirectly announce your services to others via LinkedIn Answers
tool by responding to a question related to your service or asking a
question that either engages your target audience or indirectly
points to what you do. Careful – soft sell only.
Drive interested readers to your blog posting by answering a
question and providing a URL to your blog for additional detail.
Get your product or service recommended by another member of the
LinkedIn community.
Use status updates to comment on projects and work you’re doing
that’s of interest to prospects.
24
25. Brand visibility, cont.
Grow your network by joining groups and inviting members of fellow
groups to connect – spreading your messaging to a broader
prospect base (via status updates or responses to Answer).
Provide link to your profile in your email signature.
Improve your search engine ranking.
Drive additional traffic to your site via LinkedIn, which improves
ranking.
Creating additional links to your site helps the search engines find
you and can improve your ranking. Example: what if all employee
LinkedIn pages pointed to your company website?
25
26. Give thought to your FaceBook strategy:
Personal objective – personal friends only;
updates skew personal; private profile; use
FaceBook for prospect research only
Combo of personal/professional objective – friends, clients and
prospects; blend of personal/professional updates that skew
professional; public or private profile
Strictly business objective – professional updates with public
profile
Create both a personal profile and a company page depending
upon your FB strategy.
Photo selection is key. Use your logo as your main photo on your
company page. Get a professional shot for your personal profile vs.
cropping yourself out of a family photo.
Have a short well-thought out description of what you do underneath
your photo.
26
27. Link to your other online presence(s).
Website(s)
Blogs
Other social networking profiles
YouTube (add the YouTube Video Box Application)
Experiment with FaceBook advertising – highly targeted, low cost
per impression, low cost of entry.
Generate a fan base for your company page and message those fans.
Work with other businesses who offer goods and services that
complement yours, and “fan” each other, post on each others’ pages,
write on each others’ walls and tag each others’ work in photo albums.
Example: an event planner could build this kind of synergy with a
photographer, florist, caterer, etc.
27
28. Run contests to increase activity on your page.
Ask people to become a fan or post comments
on your wall within a certain time frame and then
reward them with something of perceived value.
Update your fans a few times per month.
Make sure you link to your website(s) in the updates.
Ask everyone you know (including your staff) to become a fan of your
page and to share or post your page.
Make it easy for them - email them the link to your FB page.
Promote your page in FB Groups and on other pages.
Search for FB groups related to what you do and post your page in
their Posted Items (if enabled).
28
29. Consider allowing your fans to post photos
Enable the Fan Photos option, but monitor this
closely so that you can take down any photos
that you feel are not beneficial to you.
Post comments on your own wall.
Lets your fans see two-way conversations between you and other
fans.
Be sure to click anywhere on the page so FB will recognize your
Admin status. Your logo (rather than your personal profile photo)
will show up.
