Network education – Chris Fredrickson. We are all in the sales business as we seek new clients and tell them about our products and services. Sales people, who actively seek out customers, earn 4-5 times more than those who do not. 91% of customers would give referrals, only 11% of business people ask for them. Always follow up on referrals; 30% to 50% of sales goes to the vendor who contacted the client first. Thursday is the best day to prospect, Wednesday is next. The best time to make cold calls is at the end of the day. Many times, you will not get a return call overnight and you may not reach prospect immediately. It takes an average of eight cold call attempts to reach a prospect. Once reached, 80% of the sales require a follow-up after the meeting. Whether making a call or a presentation, after the meeting, 63% remember your stories and 5% remembers the statistics. 78% of sales people use digital means, and outsell their peers. Email is 40% better than Facebook or Twitter in acquiring customers; however, the best means is LinkedIn. 92% of all customer interactions happen over the phone and it is a good idea to do check in-calls with old clients. 78% of sales people who use digital media outsell their peers.

Unfortunately, mortgage rates have risen, but Farmers State Bank still has a home equity special with an interest rate of 3.50% for a credit score of 700 and up to 85% loan to value. There are no closing costs, so this is an excellent opportunity to purchase or refinance debt.

Amy Moore, Park Lane Jewelry – jewelry consultant. For a well-put together look, try 7-10 pieces of jewelry. Use a set of three bracelets on each arm and mix and match the colors and textures. Also, use three necklaces and a set of earrings and be sure to add in some sparkle. Jewelry is like Jell-O; there is always room for more!

Steve Schroeder, Skogman Realty – realtor. Steve is a specialist in residential real estate and always answers his phone and returns calls. He assists sellers in getting ready to list and assists buyers in qualifying for a purchase.

Kevin Bullard, All Tune L**e – car care expert. Several weeks ago, there were repairs relating to tires and brakes; now the repairs are more tires and air conditioning issues. Your A/C may feel cool, but it may not be cooling well as it could. Refrigerant will leak, so your system should be checked and recharged for proper operation. The compressor may not turn on if coolant is too low. Check on needed summer car repairs.
