I have some exciting news for you.

It is very time limited, however, so you'll have to act fast if you want to take advantage of it.

The news is that one of the UK's leading marketing experts, a really sharp guy by the name of Chris Cardell, is running his successful Entrepreneur Summit again this June.

I don't know Chris personally but I did meet him once at a Dan Kennedy seminar we were both attending in the US. I found him to be approachable and very knowledgeable.

Also, when I was just starting out with online marketing I signed up for a training course Chris was running on Google Adwords, which far exceeded my expectations. From personal experience I can tell you that he delivers quality information and support and is one of the 'good guys'.

Those of you paying attention will also have noticed that last week Chris did a teleseminar with Perry Marshall, the Adwords and marketing expert. Guys like Perry don't associate themselves with any Tom, Dick or Harry who comes along, so this alone should tell you something about Chris Cardell and his reputation within the marketing community.

Anyway, enough about Chris, let's talk about his seminar. Better still go check out the details by clicking the link below then come back for some extra input and news of how I will make this even better for you:

Entrepreneur Summit

Here's my take on this:

This is a solid line up. Chris's 5 themes are relevant and targeted and I have no doubt at all he can deliver on what he promises here.

As for the speakers, they are worth listening to.

I've seen Bill Glazer at his seminars and he always provides fantastic information. Be prepared to take copious notes listening to him.

I really enjoyed Sahar Hashemi's book on starting up Coffee Republic and I'm sure she'll give an enjoyable and informative presentation.

I can't actually remember Doug Richard from Dragons' Den but if you can't learn something from someone as experienced as him then you probably need shooting.

Barry Shamis is new to me but if Chris Cardell rates him highly that's all I need to know.

Ari Galper has a very good reputation in online marketing circles. Working on your conversion rate is not as sexy as getting more traffic but is absolutely vital if you're going to succeed online.

The more observant amongst you will have noticed that there is a hefty 'early bird' discount if you sign up before 28th April. If you an Entrepreneur or business owner and you can see the benefit of attending then of course it makes sense to get in before this date.

You may also have noticed that the link I sent you too was an affiliate link.

Yes, I do have something to gain by recommending this seminar to you (a commission). I am, however, proud to recommend Chris's Summit to you regardless. You can always sign up through the normal site and cut me out if you prefer.

As I mentioned in my last post, though, I'm big on adding extra value. What this means for you is that I'm going to sweeten the deal even more to make attending Chris's seminar even more of a no-brainer.

If you decide that you'd like to go to the Summit and you book your place through my link you'll get an extra special bonus from me.

I'm currently deciding on what I'm going to include. I may even give you a choice of bonuses so you can pick the one most suited to you.

If you are a UK property investor one of the choices will be targeted specifically for you…

I'll update you with the details next week.

For now just go and read through the information about the Entrepreneur's Summit again and think about it over the weekend. If you decide to book your place now just be sure to let me know so I can make sure you get your bonus.

Have a great weekend,

Wow! I missed March!

Apologies for my absence - I've been super busy this last month.

Anyway, I have some cool stuff to tell you about over the next couple of weeks but first I'd like to share a tip with you.

When times get tough or when a market is particularly competitive most businesses will respond by cutting their prices as much as they can.

This is actually really dumb.

In most cases price is rarely the main factor in a customer's decision to buy. It may be a factor, but it's usually not the main one. People have their own reasons for buying. If price truly is the only important factor in your industry then you should be very worried - even if you're cheapest today your business is very vulnerable.

What happens if a competitor comes along and finds a way to offer what you're offering a fraction cheaper? What if they have deeper pockets than you and they're prepared to take a loss for a while in order to drive you out of business?

It's a bad position to be in.

Instead of looking to cut your prices you should be looking at ways you can add value to make your offer seem an absolute bargain, even if your price is higher than that of your competitors.

Could you include a bonus of some sort to build value? Provide a much higher level of customer support? Offer a valuable secondary product or service to sweeten the deal?

Low prices can actually be a turn off for some kind of customers - a higher price suggests higher quality and can be reassuring. Also if you charge a higher price you have more of a margin to work with in order provide that extra level of service or whatever you're offering.

You get the opportunity to really wow your customers so they talk about you to their friends and don't even think about going anywhere else.

How can you add extra value to your customers and the people you deal with?

Best wishes,

Matt

P.S. - I have some very valuable recommendations to share with you shortly, so when you hear from me next you should take a couple of minutes to check out what I have to say. I'll also personally be adding extra value to make things even better for you!
