8 Ways to Make More Meaningful Business Connections in 2010
MSC Marketing
RISMEDIA, January 15, 2010—It’s official: We survived 2009. But you’re probably not spinning around in your office chair, throwing confetti in the air to celebrate. That’s because though you may have survived, 2009 was an especially difficult year for business. And one major business casualty in the last year was customer-business trust. Damaged by the Madoffs, AIGs, and GMs of the world and forced by a down economy and growing unemployment to pinch every penny, many customers are simply finding it difficult to hand their trust over to those with whom they do business.“After all the debacles of 2009, people want to know who they are doing business with,” explains Maribeth Kuzmeski, author of The Connectors: How the World’s Most Successful Businesspeople Build Relationships and Win Clients for Life. “Relationships are more important than ever, particularly when it comes to doing business. And thanks to social media, mobile technology, and the ever-expanding Internet, it’s easier than ever to connect with others. (More …)

7 Ways to Take Advantage of the Extended Tax Deduction
By Bob Corcoran
For more information, visit http://www.CorcoranCoaching.com.
Now is the time to act because we don’t know if Congress will extend the deduction a third time. My guess is no. I believe lawmakers and economists expect natural market forces to take over in the busy season in the spring of 2010 without the incentives.
RISMEDIA, December 9, 2009—Look who got an early holiday present—Realtors and the rest of the folks interested in buying and selling homes.
Bob Corcoran is a nationally recognized speaker and author who is founder and president of Corcoran Consulting Inc.

Hats off to the National Association of Realtors (NAR) and its lobbying efforts for bringing us fantastic news out of Washington, D.C.–lawmakers have extended the homebuyer tax credit to April 30, 2010. And they’ve sweetened the deal: the law increases the limit for couples to $225,000 in annual income, roughly $55,000 more than the existing law.
Plus, it adds a nice $6,500 carrot for those who’ve lived in their homes for five of the prior eight years to buy up or buy elsewhere. I believe this will move houses at both the lower and higher ends as well.
This news is a perfect opportunity for Realtors to capitalize on several levels:
1. Stand out from the crowd – Many Realtors take a break near the end of the year. If you choose to keep working, you’ll not only stand out from the crowd, you’ll be able to get the most out of the extension and improve your bottom line.
