"Quacks and Hacks in the Promotional Products Industry"
Dear Top Secrets Subscriber,
During
one of my live training sessions, an attendee stated
that it is "practically impossible" for any promotional
products representative to differentiate
himself or
herself from the competition, since we all
sell the
same products.
While I try to be supportive of other people's opinions,
I don't think I could disagree with that statement
more completely.
Sure,
Our Competitors May Have Access to
Many of the Same
Products that We Do,
but That Means Nothing!
Think
of it this way... In medicine, the quacks may
have access to the same education, drugs and surgical
tools as the most gifted surgeon. But that doesn't
make the quacks any smarter or the gifted surgeon
any dumber.

In
law, the hacks may have access to the same law
books as the master litigators. But that doesn't make
the hacks worth any more or the master litigators
worth any less.
It's the Same in Our Profession.
We are Not Defined by Our Products!
We
are defined by the way we use those products to directly address the promotional needs, wants,
desires and concerns of our clients.
We are defined by the way we use the telephone, fax,
email and industry research tools to create and present
solutions to our client's most pressing issues.
We
are defined by our knowledge, our professionalism and
our response to questions and problems that our clients
want solved. |
Let's
Face It, There are Quacks and Hacks in
Every Industry, Including Our Own...
But
they should never be allowed to define the
market or diminish the value of the work done by true promotional products professionals.
That
needs to be our focus... providing promotional solutions for
our clients and behaving in a manner that is consistent with true industry professionals.
I
encourage you to forward this issue to anyone else in the
industry that you care about, to let them know that you have
their interest at heart...
