If you have a computer and a printer, preferably one that can print in color, then you can make your own brochures and business cards that are very professional-looking! Be sure to use good quality paper (that is available at any office supplies store like Office Depot or Staples) for anything that you are going to hand out or send to potential customers and clients.Writi
A brief recap of the 5 needs:
- The Physiological Needs
- The Safety Needs
- The Love Needs
- The Esteem Needs
- The Need for Self-Actualization
Maslow indicates that most people have only a percentage of these needs filled at a certain time. On page 13, he points out that the average individual is most satisfied in the physiological and safety needs, and least satisfied in the self-actualization needs. Here is a clue to why it is important for us, as Chief Marketer, to do our best.
How many of us are in the career we planned to be in? Not many. Yet most of us who wind up in a position at our company where we are trusted with the marketing function possess some creativity. Coupled with this, we have a desire to advance our company, to promote it, to make it better and to make the company more profitable.
The problems of the Chief Marketer and the Sole Proprietor are similar. Both need to generate a certain kind of initiative and each must sometimes go-it-alone in the course of growing the business. Both need to be out front, clearing a new path for the rest of the company to follow. Both sometimes feel like they work in isolation, unappreciated. When you start feeling bogged down, look to the last two needs: Esteem Needs and the Need for Self-Actualization. Both can give you a way out and a hand back up.

Web 2.0 is totally unlike Web 1.0…miss this opportunity and more than likely your online business will suffer dramatically as knowledgeable web marketers exploit the opportunity and leave you and your website standing in their dust…A new era of web marketing is taking form and unlike Web 1.0 that was a ticking time bomb Web 2.0 is the opportunity that will allow the playi
Esteem needs are often met through interaction with our fellows. If you get stuck or feel down, then seek out one of your business mentors or a peer in your company. Ask them to honestly review some of your work. Ask them to tell you where it lacks and where it is positive, then push forward. You can use the achievers in the Bloom Team for this esteem building, too. You’ll be surprised how you suddenly don’t feel as alone.
Earlier we discussed that one key reason Achievers work well for your company is to fulfill an inner need—the need for self-actualization. This is true for you as Chief Marketer, as well. This is where a good Crystal Hour can really help. When we respond to our creativity we are responding to an inner calling; that voice inside that urges us to do our best, to use our creative ability for some good. We suddenly find ourselves re-energized and the road doesn’t feel quite as lonely or difficult.
Remember: Brand (who you are) + Package (your Face to the Customer) + People (customers and employees) = Marketing Success.
