This was a great article and reminds me of a very important lesson my father taught me when doing business – Never tell people about how much something will benefit you. Always ask what you can do for them. By doing so, you’re making their matter seem important while still accomplishing yours. And if they knew how much you were benefiting from it, then they will start to measure their success by how well you’re doing. You NEVER want them to be as successful as you. You never want to give them the tools they need to get ahead of you. You give them enough so they feel good, but not enough where they won’t need you anymore. I’ve been working in garage door repair for over 3 years and I’ve never shown my cards to a competitor, customer or employee. That’s why they call it the “secret sauce”!

This was a question I dealt with when starting my health initiative. I wanted a website for weight loss and muscle building for men.

There was no simple way, sure I could have spun some pure seo bunk site but that will not help the world. So instead I created a real site and did real research. Even going so far as to test my weight loss theories out on my self.

The old ways won’t work anymore, we must be real now!

I agree. I ask myself this question over and over “How could I make my website more useful to visitors”. As a result it improves and attacts more visitors who stay longer. Win-win for everyone.

Yeah, can I add value to you? First, we should have brand new and practical service for our guests. Then promise free trial and support. Then we should provide all around servie. That’s a big question.

Well, in terms of blog posting, I would say that you could add value by posing questions at the end of the blog post that inspire the reader’s response. However, I have to agree with the notion that “content is king”. If you write something of quality, people will naturally want to come back for more or will feel so strongly about what you wrote that they will naturally feel encouraged to respond

It’s similar to the push vs pull of traditional advertising compared to current day internet marketing. Instead of telling you why you need this product/service, even if it doesn’t help the customer, in today’s world you need to really get under the hood and learn what it is the customer needs, and determine how you can solve their problem.

I do read this “self-help trope” very often and I’m again reminded of how logical this approach to people (who are human beings in the end and not vending machines where I put some coins in to get my coffee) really is!

The odd thing about the fact you are repeating is: We all know it already since every single man and woman has come to where they are because they either treat themselves and their Linchpins like they want to be treated – or not.

It’s that simple, yet we need thousands of reminders like yours. And that’s what I like about this post: It goes into the right direction

There’s a guy called Bob Burg who writes extensively on this topic, and he answers some interesting questions on his blog on this area of give before you get.

As far I can see, there’s two extremes – the ones who give way too much and the ones who give nothing. And one needs to strike a balance between the two.

Boy, I could go on and on – but for the sake of Will , if anyone’s interested, http://www.thegogiver.com/blog/ talks at length about it.

Exactly. It’s all about finding the right people. Napoleon Hill allready said that! There is also a new training by Eben Pagan. It’s called get connected. I didn’t watch it yet, but the reviews are good

You’re spot on with this article. Too many times we try to shove our agenda down someone’s throat because it will be good for us. Just by trying to figure out where you add value to someone else can let you decide whether what you have needs a few tweaks to work better for everyone else.
