John Greer Says...Polish Your Cutting Edge
Innovation & Creativity pay off - Don't be afraid to innovate; be different. Little innovations pack powerful heat. Take Gillette in 1971, the razor maker that is now owned by Proctor & Gamble cut the competition by simply adding a second blade. That meant a closer shave, which led to larger market share.
Lesson: Think slight to gain might. "Small changes, incrementally, over time eventually lead to big results," said Dan Roitman, founder and CEO of Stroll. "Everything in optimization."
USCREDIT is the eBay media marketing arm of John Greer Auto Sales. We make small improvements every week. The result is that we can now sell profitably on eBay with NO RESERVE because we are attracting extra large numbers of "eBay Watchers" to our listings. The more people who see your product, the better opportunity for you to sell.
Share with YES what you are doing to polish your cutting edge.
See you Tuesday.
John Greer, YES facilitator.
