<p><img class="alignright" src="http://shiftselling.com/files/images/fistofcash.jpg" alt="" width="135" height="197" />In my last post <a href="http://www.shiftselling.com/2009/10/06/number-6-way-to-sell-more-using-social-media/" target="_blank">The #6 Way to Sell More by Using Social Media </a>I showed how you can sell more by using WordPress and FeedBlitz.</p>
<p>In that post I offered $1,500 worth of <em>Trigger Event Selling </em>services to the person who provided either the most popular example of ,or idea on, how to sell more by using WordPress or FeedBlitz.It appears that everyone was either stumped or too busy selling to provide an answer.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m going to <strong>up the ante</strong> by adding this months $1,500 to next months and give the person who gets the most votes for their answer to next month&#8217;s question $2,000 worth of services and the person who gets the second most votes $1,000 worth of my services.</p>
<p>Stay tuned as next week I announce the #5 Way to Sell More by Using Social Media.</p>
<p>In the mean time take a look at Andrew Sobel&#8217;s article called &#8220;<strong><a href="http://www.andrewsobel.com/articles/view/winning-a-new-client-when-there-is-an-incumbent" target="_self">Winning a New Client When There Is an Incumbent</a></strong>&#8220;. The article shows the 9 principles that can help guide you in trying to win business from a new client which already has strong, existing relationships with the competition. Guess what principle #1 one is&#8230; you guessed it, &#8220;Look for <em>Trigger Events</em>&#8220;.</p>
<p>Have an EVENTFUL week!</p>
<p>Craig</p>
