1 of 2: PUBLIC SPEAKING: ExcelVB Business Contacts Manager for Speakers Marketers Consultants and Entrepreneurs

This week, I offer you a tool to help you with your sales lead generation or client prospecting – useful for Speaking Professionals, Sales/Marketing Professionals, Independent Consultants etc. Watch the video demo below, for my Excel-VB Driven Business Clients/Prospects Contacts Manager™ – built in 2006.

You need to send out gifts, and greeting cards to your business contacts…BUT there’s A PROBLEM!

  • If only you had all the names, snail mail/email addresses, phone
    numbers etc in ONE place.
  • If only you could print out all the contact data for EACH person
    in a neat alphabetically arranged table format for you or
    your assistant to refer to in preparing mails or parcels to
    be delivered.

Do You Struggle To Locate Contact Data/Other Information On Your Suppliers, Customers/Clients, Applicants, Employees, Family/Friends?

  • If only you could avoid carrying your bulky cardholder around and
    still be able to easily access ALL the information you require,
    as the need arises, on your supplier or client …business
    associate or partner …friend or relative/family etc.
    If
    only..
    !

Do You Want To Be Able To Keep All Your Personal And Business ContactsRecords In One Comprehensive Storage That Lends Itself To Quick
& Easy Data Updates/Retrieval?

If you said YES to the above questions, then read my special offer below

Work Smarter !

About 8 years ago (2006) I was going through the pile of business cards I had amassed, wondering if I could somehow put the information each one contained
in a central stress-free PC-based system, that would enable
me retrieve (e.g. by typing the person’s name to instantly bring
up every other bit of detail on him/her), update and/or maintain
the contact data subsequently.

Click HERE To Request Your Copy Now

I knew software like MS Outlook and other programs offered features to help with this kind of problem. But I wanted something that suited the way I worked. It had to accommodate the realities of the society I operate in, where – apart from ever erratic ower supply/internet connectivity – it is VERY difficult – to find a place to simply log on and connect to your PC at home/the office etc!

I therefore needed for it to be portable(fit on a flash drive at least), and also require a software platform to run on, that is readily available in most places I may have to be.

With my mind made up, I spent about 2 days building what I have now called my Customizable Personal/Business Contacts Manager™ application using MS Excel VB. For CEOs, Marketing/Sales/HR/PR Managers, Independent Consultants or Entrepreneurs etc who often have to maintain large volumes of contact data on their suppliers, customers/clients, applicants/employees etc, this product can
make that task 95% EASIER(No exaggeration).

For instance, if Mr A. changes address, email or phone number, all I do is call his name using a drop menu and ALL his data appears in a custom data entry/display form. I then simply type into the appropriate data form field to change the affected data – and click SAVE. When next I call up his record, the changes
I made are reflected. It’s that simple!

So, here’s my special offer to you: Signup to get a limited use version of this program(AT N10,000.00) which will enable you record and manage contact data for up to Fifty(50) persons.

A customizable Pro version catering for as many as 50,000
contacts
will also be available – at N50,000.00 – if you need
more function/power.

NOTE: If you join my Inner Circle, you get this pro version FREE in addition to 65% lifetime discount to buy all my other products and services. Click here for details.

The limited use version will give you a low risk opportunity to test the program and see if it can work for you – so I urge you to signup for it NOW (click) .

Question: But who is Burt Dubin, and why do I (Tayo K. Solagbade) think you should you learn from him?

Answer: Burt is a 3 decade veteran in the professional speaking business. After achieving top level cross continental success as an expert-speaker, he has established a reputation for mentoring some of the highest paid speakers in the world. He owns SpeakingBizSuccess.com, SpeakingSuccess.com and BurtDubin.com.

Burt helps those he mentors (experts-who-speak) to Position, Package, Promote, and Present* themselves successfully to clients (*He calls them the 4Ps). That’s why it’s no surprise that on Burt’s website, considerable space capital is devoted to useful business marketing articles as well as products.

It might also interest you to know that MANY years back, Burt established himself as one of the best marketing minds in the world. To really put this FACT in proper perspective, I’ll provide more specific details in form of an example.

A few years ago, Burt contributed an article to a powerful publication titled “The Most Effective Articles Ever – By The World’s Top Marketers“. That 574 page ebook features timeless marketing advice from 71 of the world’s top marketers – including Jack Trout, Joe Vitale, Yanik Silver…and Burt Dubin.

That’s ample proof that (in addition to Public Speaking), Burt would be a great resource to learn business marketing from!

Full Disclosure: I represent Burt as Sole Agent for his products/services, which means if YOU buy from him, I get paid.

But that’s NOT the main reason I represent and recommend him. I have benefited in many ways by learning from Burt. Through his writing, his audio recordings, and from directly relating with him.

Before we teamed up in 2011, I’d been studying his work and adapting it to succeed in my work from way back in 2002. It does not matter what part of the world you’re in. If you know how to adapt them to suit your peculiar local needs, Burt’s ideas and strategies WILL work for you. I am living proof of it!

That’s why I never tire of CONFIDENTLY recommending him to others.

If you need help putting the ideas shared above to use, let me know HERE.
