This is one of the most important skills to grow almost any kind of business. Sales people have the highest conversion rate out of anything else potentially that you can do to get sales. How do you find sales people? Where do you find them? How do you hire? This strategy does not apply to corporate sales. This is for smaller companies selling to smaller companies. Where do you get sales people? For salespeople freelancing websites are not good enough. There are not a lot of good salespeople there. You are looking to hire people, who do not have too much experience. If you hire sales people, they need to do thi

Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” The biggest misconception that I hear from people, who want to start to start a business, is that you need some kind of money to start a business. I think that is an excuse that people use to dismiss the idea of starting a business. You do not need money to start a business. Based on coaching hundreds of people in starting an online business here is what I have learned. If you are absolutely broke and you have a job that is not paying a lot, here is a way to start your own business in your spare time that does not require to invest any money at all. The easiest and fastest way to start a business in my opinion and in my experience is to become a freelancer. This is not a real business, because it is more similar to having a job, but it is one step closer to a real busi

Here are the tips, tricks and tools you need to sell on ebay successfully as a beginner. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” I have been on eBay from 2002 to 2014. I have a lot of experience selling on eBay and dealing with the whole process. In this podcast you will find out exactly how to get started if you have no experience and you want to make your first money or side income online. EBay is one of the easiest platforms to get started and start making money online. What I did was I was selling new items on eBay. It is similar to Amazon where you can make quite a lot of money. EBay is a smaller marketplace, but it is big enough to make quite a lot of money. There are three things you need to know and to do to get started on eBay: 1 – You need a PayPal account to receive money. It does not need to be a business account. 2 – You need something to sell. 3 – You need keywords. You need to know what to write

Here are the 2 objection handling techniques you can use in almost any situation. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” In this podcast you are going to find out how to deal with objections in sales. There are two methods that I would like to share with you. There are many other methods, but these are the methods that I used and that most of the sales people that I know use successfully to close sales every day. 1 – Do not have that objection come up in the sales conversation. How do you do this? How do you prevent an objection from happening? You will probably do not want to deal with some objections in every single sales call. For example, if you hear that someone wants to talk with his imaginery business partner and you do not want to hear that objection in your sales calls, and you know that his objection is not even real, then here is a way to prevent that from happening on every single sales call. In

If you have a full time job, you can still start a business if you do THIS “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” A lot of people who want to start an online business have some sort of income and usually that is a job. They complain that they do not have the time to start an online business, because of their full time job. That is absolutely not true. I have worked with hundreds of people and a good number of them had a job when they started their business and they still succeeded. How do they do this? How are they able to sustain a living and at the same time build a business online? The main thing that you need to learn is how to manage your time properly? When I came home I had a set amount of time for relaxation, where I was not going to work. This was an hour and a half. I also had time for going to the gym. This was another hour and a half. So I had a set amount of time from Monday to Friday to work on m

Here's how to build a $100k/year (or more) business based on my experience doing it and coaching people. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” In this podcast you are going to learn how to build a 6 figure business. This is a business that generates between $100 000 and one million dollars per year in revenue. If you are starting off from absolute zero and you have no experience, then setting 6 figures as your initial goal is very realistic. Later on I recommend to set the bar higher. Let’s get started with one small business, which can be started with just one person and how to generate $100 000 per year in revenue. The very first thing you need to know is that you will not be able to do it alone. It is very rare to meet someone who is able to generate 6 figures alone. There are very few people who can do that. I do not recommend learning just from experience. Although the biggest amount of learning always d

In this podcast I share the 3 most important things you need to know to succeed in business. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” I started 8 years ago and I was literally sitting by myself in my studio apartment. At that time I was thinking that after I graduate college I will start a business. I did not know what I was doing. I had one friend who wanted to do it with me, but he also had no idea what he was doing. For the first two years I made a loss in my business, but after that I slowly started to find the points and keys to success in business. That is what I am going to share with you today. In 2010 I found a community of entrepreneurs. I was not one of those solo entrepreneurs with no one around me. I was a tiny little fish in a big pond and I started talking with all these entrepreneurs, who were doing totally different things. These entrepreneurs offered me to try to do different things as an entr

Proven strategy to find your passion. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” Once you are able to discover what you are passionate about and develop your passion for various things, then you are able to lead a life that is more fun. Anything that you do will come off as more authentic, more interesting and people will pay you more money for whatever you are selling. That is the benefit of passion. Most people do not have the passion in their life that they are looking for. Every 10 people that I know only one person is leading a life where he is following his passion. Why am I talking about this? It is because I have coached hundreds of people in business, entrepreneurship, self-development. This is a question that I get over and over, because it is very important according to all kinds of news articles, books about success. How do you find your passion? Let’s reframe that and look at it in a different way. T

You will be able to charge higher amounts of money and build an actual business because you will be able to make more money from being a freelancer running a business than any kind of job that you can get. How do you get sales on Upwork? The most important thing that you need to know when trying to get sales on Upwork is that Upwork is queued in the favor of the buyer. The people wh

Here's how to get the word out there about your business and the number one mistake to avoid... + The correct way of thinking about the whole thing. Almost every company does this wrong, especially when starting out. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” I am going to talk about how to get the word out there for your business. This is a question that people ask me a lot in the mastermind, on Facebook, on YouTube and everywhere else. How do I let people know that my business exists? It is super important to get your word out there. Where does this question come from? It comes from reading a lot of marketing books and watching adds on TV and so on. You will get this idea that branding is very important for a small business. If you are running a small business, then this podcast is for you. For small business, if you sell a service or a product or anything else and you do not have a lot of money to invest, you d

Here's how to use the social proof bias in business, unplug from the social conditioning "matrix" and get better at sales and marketing. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” Today I`m going to talk about one of the cognitive biases that we all have as human beings. So what if I told you that most people are just walking around and they think they are in control, they think they know what are they are doing. They think they make their own decisions, but actually most of the things they do are in autopilot. It`s like they are in the matrix, they are just walking around and they are doing whatever it is that they are supposed to do, what everyone else is doing. In fact, this last thing that I said what everyone else is doing is one of the most powerful human cognitive biases. It`s like a bug in your brain. What it means is when people see what everyone else is doing then they are more likely to do it. You can

Here are the top 3 (networking) habits of successful entrepreneurs. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” 1 – Being super nice when interacting with other entrepreneurs and when meeting them. When you go to a networking event and you get introduced, if you are not super nice to people you will put your relationship with the person introduced you on the line. If you talk with someone who you do not know very well you will not be sure what they could find offensive. You cay something that could be perceived as rude and you can offend the other person. In a relatively small community people tend to be very nice. The general population will say that you are a pussy. However, among entrepreneurs you cannot risk to be perceived as the guy no one wants to talk to. You will get ignored and you will end up talking to people who do not know how to communicate. The really successful people are super nice to each other,

Here's how you can get leads and sales on linkedin with content and inbound marketing techniques. Works like a charm for most industries. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” LinkedIn is probably the best way to reach business owners. They congregate in groups and send each other references. It is an international meeting point for entrepreneurs and others, who participate in business. Most people think that LinkedIn is only just for profiles, but the way I look at it is a keyword targeted profile that allows me to be found on the internet and in the LinkedIn database. So, if people look for copywriters, there are certain people who are ranked on top and others who are not ranked at all. A lot of business owners and recruiters look on LinkedIn as a go to source to recruit people and find partners to team up with. If you were to rank on LinkedIn as a copywriter, for example, then you would be getting a lot of b

Here are the 2 things you need to implement to get things done in business, work and life. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” I found, from hiring more than 300 people over the past 6 years, a few things that people do right and a few things that people do wrong. A lot of companies hire people based on these criteria. A lot of entrepreneurs have some of these positive characteristics. It helps you become a better entrepreneur, better if you have a job and better on any kinds of projects that you are running in your life. What is the first thing that is very good to have if you want to get shit done? A lot of people spend the majority of their time looking that they are busy. What does this mean? They have a set of habits like check email every 5 seconds, check Facebook every 15 seconds, go get coffee, go get tea, go to smoke and that keeps going and going all day. That way you look very busy. It looks ver

Here are my top 3 favorite direct marketing techniques that you can implement in your business. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” Today we are going to talk about direct marketing and my best lessons that I have learned in the last eight years of doing marketing. The first thing that you need to know when starting with direct marketing is that most companies do direct marketing by asking some other companies to promote their own stuff in Instagram or in YouTube.” That is a big mistake, because they do not build their own list, they just say: “Tell them to buy this now”, instead of getting their email address and keep sending them offers forever.” Why is that such a big mistake? Most people will not buy immediately. Some will buy, but most will not buy on the first try. That is why you should build a list. In internet marketing there is something called affiliate marketing and affiliate marketing sometime

Here are 4 cold calling sales techniques you need in your business if you sell products or services to companies. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” Today we are going to talk about cold calling companies to sell them services and products, so you can generate sales on the phone without having the need to learn marketing, sales. This is something that most people and most companies do not have the balls to do it, because they want to develop this fancy marketing strategy from day one, instead of picking up the phone and doing what it takes without having a budget. Marketers will gladly tell you that you need to have a fancy funnel, fancy Facebook ads and spend thousands of dollars even though you are just starting out to grow your business. I can tell you that it is not necessarily the case. It certainly will help if you have the money for that, but if you are starting from zero, then cold calling is a ver

Here's my top 2 tips to deal with negative people in life based on my own experience. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” I am in Riga. It is a beautiful sunny day. You can see the river of the city behind me. Hopefully you can see it with the sunshine strain with the camera. I am going to talk about how to deal with negative people. I have a saying and that is: “If people do not say you are crazy, then that means you are not doing anything extraordinary.” When you are starting a business or you are doing something that is interesting or different with your life, people often think that you are insane and crazy. That is exactly what happened when I started my business and when I started travelling in 2011. At that time of my life the people around me were thinking what is going on. People were thinking that I am crazy and I was asked many times: “Are not you worried? Why do you want to do all these weird thi
