<p>Congratulations to Richard Goddey. He won $1,500 worth of Trigger Event Selling<sup>™</sup> services by getting the most votes for his answer to April&#8217;s question about <a href="http://www.shiftselling.com/2010/04/06/number-1-way-to-sell-more-using-social-media/#comments" target="_blank">how you can use TweetDeck to sell more</a>.</p>
<p>My apologies for taking not announcing April’s winner sooner. I took a 6 week hiatus from blogging to complete the manuscript for my <a href="http://triggereventbook.com/" target="_blank">upcoming book</a> with Tibor Shanto – <em>SHiFT! Harness The Trigger Events That TURN PROSPECTS INTO CUSTOMERS</em>.</p>
<p>Now the book has been completed and I have reached #1 of <a href="http://www.shiftselling.com/category/top-seven-social-media-tools/" target="_blank">the top seven ways to sell more by using social media</a>, next week I will begin counting down the top seven Sales 2.0 tools – from a Trigger Event Selling perspective.</p>
<p>In the fast few weeks I have fielded a number of questions about Trigger Event Marketing<sup>™</sup> – how to market using knowledge of Trigger Events.</p>
<p>Here are <strong>three resources that I recommend</strong>:</p>
<ol>
<li>The <a href="http://www.facebook.com/TriggerEventMarketing?v=app_2373072738" target="_blank">Trigger Event Marketing™ page on Facebook</a> that has some excellent examples and resources</li>
<li><a href="http://www.crmbuyer.com/story/65795.html?wlc=1271562602&amp;wlc=1274840026" target="_blank">Pulling the Trigger on Trigger Marketing</a>: Best Buy and Discover Show How it’s Done – by Jeff Zabin</li>
<li><a href="http://www.dmnews.com/keys-to-trigger-based-e-mail-marketing/article/109841/" target="_blank">Keys to Trigger Based Email Marketing</a> – by Michael Thompson</li>
</ol>
<p>Speaking of marketing, I am <strong><a href="http://www.shiftselling.com/events/art-of-marketing/" target="_self">giving way eight tickets to The Art of Marketing</a></strong> in Calgary on June 14th.  Complete the form found at <a href="http://www.shiftselling.com/events/art-of-marketing/" target="_self">http://www.shiftselling.com/events/art-of-marketing/</a> for your chance to win one of two pairs of tickets or one of the four individual tickets.</p>
<p>Next Tuesday I&#8217;ll start my list of the top Sales 2.0 tools and give away $1,500 to the person who gets the most votes for their answer to the question &#8220;How can you use the #7 Sales 2.0 sales tool to sell more?&#8221;</p>
<p>Until then   &#8230;   <em>good luck</em> have an eventful week!</p>
<p>Craig</p>

During this 30 minute webinar I will prove that there is a Silver Bullet in sales.</p>
<h4>Webinar Details -<a href="https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/705326053" target="_blank">There is a Silver Bullet in Sales</a></h4>
<p>For years you’ve been told that there is no such thing as a silver bullet in sales.</p>
<p>But there is. It&#8217;s called timing – getting in front of the right person at EXACTLY the right time.</p>
<p>When you have the right timing the sale almost happens by itself &#8211; No challenges getting to the decision maker, understanding their dissatisfaction, presenting a solution, or closing the sale.</p>
<p>In this <a href="https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/705326053" target="_blank">30 minute webinar</a> Craig Elias will show you how events that trigger the buying process &#8211; <em>Trigger Events</em> &#8211; convert someone who never would have bought from you yesterday, into someone <strong>highly likely to become your customer</strong> today.</p>
<p>When you leverage Trigger Events to get in front of highly motivated, buyers before your competition you dramatically:</p>
<ul>
<li>Increase your close ratios</li>
<li>Shorten your sales cycles</li>
<li>Sell at higher prices</li>
</ul>
<p>This <a href="https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/705326053" target="_blank">no-charge webinar </a>will show you t<strong>he secrets of getting to decision makers at EXACTLY the right time</strong> by:</p>
<ol>
<li>Identifying what the right timing is</li>
<li>Learning how to get the right timing</li>
<li>Understanding what to do when you do have the right timing</li>
</ol>
<p>You’ll also learn:</p>
<ul>
<li> The three types of Trigger Events that create highly motivated buyers</li>
<li> The specific Trigger Events that create highly motivated buyers for what you sell</li>
</ul>
<p><strong><a href="https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/705326053" target="_blank">Register </a></strong>even if you can&#8217;t make the live webinar so you receive the recording of the webinar and a chance to win $1,500 worth of my time.</p>
<p>P.S. On September 2<sup>nd</sup> the winners of the four tickets for <strong><a href="http://www.theartofproductions.com/events-salesCalgary.html?CraigElias" target="_blank">the Art of Sales happening in Calgary</a></strong> on September 25<sup>th</sup> &#8211; Terry Tudor (1 ticket), Tammy Dowd (1 ticket), and Kae Shoommugum (2 tickets) &#8211; were notified by email as were the rest of the over 120 who entered their name in the draw.</p>
