Social Selling Tips of the Week: Sales Prospecting Secrets
Discover how top sales performers reach quality sales prospects through social selling
September 23, 2016
The way we look for sales prospects has changed. Luckily, you can adapt.
Increasing your network via social selling is a great way to maximize the prospecting process, but only if you reach the right prospects with a compelling message.
Extensive targeting is just the beginning of the prospecting journey—the lifeblood of your sales pipeline—so in this week's top content roundup, we'll take a look beyond targeting to see how your sales team can become sales prospecting experts.
Is It Sales or Stalking?
This week's first post comes from Benjamin Noble, Communication Manager at NewVoiceMedia. Noble defines four behaviors that separate successful sales prospecting from social media stalking.
"No one likes a creepy sales paparazzi, badgering customers and skulking around leads instead of acting as a trusted friend and advisor," Noble concludes. He continues, "Prowlers feign interest to obtain relationships. Sales leaders ask real questions and uncover meaningful connections."
Let genuine interest, information, consideration, and tact guide your online prospecting efforts.
20+ Highly Effective Prospecting Methods [Infographic]
Our next article, from HubSpot staff writer Aja Frost, lists 20 different ways to increase your online prospecting potential using social selling. There's even an infographic.
The problem with refining your prospecting process to qualified leads is the ever increasingly granular complexity. Frost argues, "When you prioritize lead quality over quantity, prospecting becomes far more effective. But it also gets more complex."
Luckily, this infographic gives you a jumping off point that doesn't include cold calling.
The 3-Minute Prospecting Workout
If cold calling is still your prospecting method of choice, this simple 3-minute prospecting workout from Paul Castain, might be all you need to increase the volume and quality of your sales prospects.
1. At the beginning of the day, leave yourself a 30 second prospecting voicemail
2. Focus on recent relevant talking points
3. Analyze the voicemail during the middle of the day
4. Make notes for ways to improve
5. Leave another voicemail at the end of the day
6. Repeat tomorrow
Castain emphasizes the power of small consistent practice, concluding that if you perform this 3-minute exercise every day, you'll accumulate over an hour of steady sales prospecting practice every month. Consistency over time equals results.
Decision Maker Insights for Sales Professionals
This week's final piece is a downloadable tipsheet from LinkedIn aimed at improving your prospecting skills. The information and corporate case study contained within will help your sales team "learn as much as possible about your prospect before you conduct outreach."
The tipsheet focuses on "gathering intelligence on prospective clients" and "identifying decision makers and influencers" at the outset of your outreach strategy. Download the Decision Maker Insights for Sales Professionals tipsheet and prospect more effectively right from the start.
The Right Prospects are Worth the Effort
Sales prospecting requires patience, focus, targeting, and tact. The biggest net might catch the most fish, but it's awfully hard to haul in. Take the time to cultivate the proper attitude and approach in your sales team, and the right prospects will flow into your sales funnel quarter after quarter.

"Quite suddenly I became aware that everything was full of special meaning, and this made everything holy. The instinct of Moses to take his shoes off when he saw the burning bush was very similar to my feelings. I saw many burning bushes in Cookham. I observed the sacred quality in the most unexpected quarters."
We live in an age of special effects where live shows emphasize the dramatic with laser lights and fog machines, and where we expect computer generated images to compete for outrageousness. This mentality has crept into our worship as well and today's contemporary church service often resembles a Las Vegas stage show. In counterpoint, our masterpiece today portrays the foretold resurrection of the dead in the setting of a quiet English countryside. Rather than a thunderous extravaganza, we have leisurely repose.
As Terry Glaspey explains in 75 Masterpieces Every Christian Should Know :
The Resurrection at Cookham is a large painting—nine feet high and eighteen feet wide—and it is peopled not only with the Father and the Son but also with friends and family, the people he knew and loved. His first wife, Hilda, is the model for no less than three different figures. Numerous other friends also served as models. There is a flurry of activity as the dead rise out of their graves, but the tone of the picture remains serene. Some lounge about on top of the caskets they have just exited, some struggle out of their coffins or lift up the flowering sod to exit their earthen graves, and some intently study the writing on the tombstones in the churchyard. A group of "prophets"—Moses among them—stands along the wall of the church, rapt in thought, and Spencer painted himself in the bottom right corner, lying on two slabs of a broken tomb as though he is reclining in the pages of a great stone book. "Nobody is in a hurry in this painting," said Spencer of this work. "Those men lying on top of the tombs I like very much, they gave me the feeling that the Resurrection is a peaceful occasion, and very positive. I like the happiness, that's the main idea of the picture."2 This is not a somber "Last Judgment" picture where the good and bad are being separated but an optimistic celebration of everlasting life. Christ sits under the church porch, surrounded by overhanging roses, holding three babies in his arms. The Father stands behind him, affectionately tousling his hair.
Has to the church gone too far in its use of stage effects during worship?
John 1: 1-5
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
Stanley Spencer
(30 June 1891 – 14 December 1959) was an English painter. Shortly after leaving the Slade School of Art, Spencer became well known for his paintings depicting Biblical scenes occurring as if in Cookham, the small village beside the River Thames where he was born and spent much of his life. Spencer referred to Cookham as "a village in Heaven" and in his biblical scenes, fellow-villagers are shown as their Gospel counterparts. Spencer was skilled at organising multi-figure compositions such as in his large paintings for the Sandham Memorial Chapel and the Shipbuilding on the Clyde series, the former being a World War One memorial while the latter was a commission for the War Artists' Advisory Committee during World War Two. As his career progressed Spencer often produced landscapes for commercial necessity and the intensity of his early visionary years diminished somewhat while elements of eccentricity came more to the fore. Although his compositions became more claustrophobic and his use of colour less vivid he maintained an attention to detail in his paintings akin to that of the Pre-Raphaelites.
Spencer's works often express his fervent if unconventional Christian faith. This is especially evident in the scenes that he based in Cookham which show the compassion that he felt for his fellow residents and also his romantic and sexual obsessions. Spencer's works originally provoked great shock and controversy. Nowadays, they still seem stylistic and experimental, while the nude works depicting his futile relationship with Patricia Preece, such as the Leg of mutton nude, foreshadow some of the much later works of Lucian Freud. Spencer's early work is regarded as a synthesis of French Post-Impressionism, exemplified for instance by Paul Gauguin, plus early Italian painting typified by Giotto. In later life Spencer remained an independent artist and did not join any of the artistic movements of the period, although he did show three works at the Second Post-Impressionist Exhibition in 1912.

This room was a LOT of work. It was very 1970s when we bought it. We thought about just painting over the paneling, but it was very grooved and porous and wouldn't have worked well, so….
The List:
- Took down ugly curtain thingy and patched the holes
- Painted ceiling
- Painted walls
- Painted and installed new wainscoting (ended up having to have that professionally sprayed…long story!), baseboards and trim
- Painted the top of the ledge around the room
- Installed new vent covers
- Installed new outlets, outlet covers and switch-plate covers, as well as door knobs
- Painted (professionally) and installed new doors
- Had some strong friends help us move the piano from our old place to here (thanks, Strong Friends!)
We didn't really get to finish this room until after we had moved in because we used it as a main place to paint the trim we used in the rest of the house. It is SO nice to have a family room space to keep the TV (it used to be in a 3rd bedroom/office where only 2 or 3 people could watch at once). Having the couch in the middle of the room also creates a nice little "track" for the kids to run around during the long winter months. Gotta burn off all that energy somehow, right? 🙂
I still haven't figured out what I'm putting on the mantel or some of the other walls, but it's a work in progress.

There are two possible causes.
The first possibility is that the system filters out the pending emails before building the mailing list based on the filter setting configured in the email template. With more filter settings configured, the amount of the pending emails will likely decrease.
The system will scan the pending emails again one day before the scheduled sending date. If the pending email doesn't fit the filter setting from the email campaign, it will not be sent on the scheduled date.
For example, say you plan to send out review requests and have chosen to exclude the buyers with negative Feedback in the previous order in the filter setting. The day before the system is scheduled to send out the review request emails, the system will scan the order criteria again. If the system detects the Buyer has left a negative feedback in the previous order, the system cancels the queued email. Your email will not be sent out by Feedback Central.
The second possibility is that the amount of the emails that are scheduled to be sent out today won't be presented in the data of the pending email. The index here shows the number of emails from the last 6 days.

Pakistanis on Monday woke up to hear that their country has signed visa free agreement with Australia, which meant they'll no more be requiring any visa to travel Australia, for the one holding Pakistani passport.
Like many other fake news, this also spread as fire in the bush, which led people to spread this piece as national duty.
This all also raised hoopla on social media, with laving many confused about this move by Australian Embassy.
The culprit behind spreading this fake news was a site closely named alike CNN, 'CNN-alive'to make people confuse and believe this hoax as a story by the prestigious CNN news.
It will be pertinent to mention here that Pakistan posses one of the worst passport globally, according to the report by published by Henley & Partners Visa Restrictions Index 2016.
As per the report Pakistanis can only go visa-free in 29 countries globally, which is the second low after Afghanistan's 25 in the list.
Even not bothering about these facts, Pakistanis believed that Australia has approved visa-free entry for Pakistani passport holders.
With conforming it from a reliable source, we have came to know that it is a fake story.

Episode #250 - Fangs For Nothin'
Ash enters the Blackthorn Gym for his match. This is a 3-on-3 battle, and the challenger is allowed to substitute Pokemon. The Gym leader Claire starts off with a Kingdra, so Ash selects Pikachu. However, Pikachu's electric attacks don't work because Kingdra has the traits of a Dragon type as well as a Water type.
Outside, Jessie mopes about losing the Dratini, so James suggests that they get even with the Gym leader by stealing her Dragon Fang treasure. As they discuss what to do, Wobbuffet steals their lunch. In the Gym, Ash realises that Pikachu can't handle the Kingdra and switches to Noctowl. It tries some psychic attacks but Kingdra is too fast for Noctowl to keep up.
Team Rocket sneaks up to the building where the Dragon Fang is kept, and Meowth picks the lock. James puts on special glasses to see an infrared security system, and uses a robotic arm to bypass the light beams and grab the box containing the Dragon Fang. Unfortunately Wobbuffet comes out of its PokeBall and causes them to trip the alarm. Noctowl is about to get knocked out when the alarm sounds. The match is halted, and everyone runs outside to see Team Rocket escaping. Team Rocket finds a motorboat tied to a pier in the river and they speed away. Claire brings out her Dragonair, and the kids use various Water type Pokemon to follow.
Team Rocket steers the boat into a cave in an effort to get away. Claire comments that this cave leads to the Dragon's Den. She leads everyone inside, and explains that there's a maze of tunnels in here. If they're lucky they might find the way to the Dragon's Holy Land, where she once trained with Lance. They can't allow Team Rocket to defile it.
Further into the cave, Team Rocket talks about how to sell the Dragon Fang to make lots of money. The boat is caught in a waterfall and smashed. They end up in a beautiful valley populated by all kinds of Pokemon, and they're rescued by a Dragonite. Meowth translates that it can smell the Dragon Fang they have. Quickly TR uses the situation to their advantage and they convince the Dragonite that they're trying to protect the Dragon Fang from some bad people.
The kids and Claire reach the valley and split up in search of TR. When the Dragonite spots Ash and friends, it attacks them and carries TR away. Claire says that the Dragonite once belonged to the first Blackthorn Gym leader, and hasn't been the same since he left. Brock theorizes that it joined TR because it was lonely. Ash and Claire agree to stop TR and help the Dragonite.
Suddenly a large shape appears in the sky, silhouetted by the sun. Is it a friend or an enemy?

Ministry Focus
Dick has been appointed to work with students on the Colorado School of Mines campus in Golden, Colorado.
The School of Mines is a public research university devoted to Engineering and Applied Science, making it a unique campus. Although there are degrees offered in Liberal Arts and International Studies, 89% of the predominately male student population are engineering majors.
Dick is excited to integrate all his skills and gifts in the effort – to the community, professors, and students alike.
Faith Story
Dick grew up in Corvallis, Oregon, where his parents saw to it that he regularly attended Sunday school and church. While in high school, he was invited by a friend to a party sponsored by a youth program at the community's First Baptist Church.
At that event, a compelling message challenged Dick to surrender his life and commit it to Jesus Christ.
Following a brief involvement as an engineer (his undergraduate emphasis), Dick began to feel the Lord calling him to ministry and seminary training at Western Seminary in Portland, graduating with his M.Div. After graduation, he and Judi began a campus ministry at the University of Denver.
It was while Dick was on the DU campus that he started his clinical training in counseling as a means of complimenting his ministry effectiveness. He completed both a Masters and a PhD in Counseling Psychology.
Through the years, Dick has added to his work in evangelism with students to include counseling, working strategically with students in leadership development, creating various support groups to empower them in their growth, and even briefly working in supervision of students through the role of VP for Student Affairs at a small college.
Dick is passionately committed to learning from the people he works with, and teaching, coaching, and challenging men and women and families to faith-growth disciplines. He hungers to trust God more himself and works to encourage others by his example.
Judi grew up in a Christian, evangelical ministry-oriented home with her parents involved in Campus Ambassadors and later church-planting work. She accepted Jesus Christ as her Savior at the age of 4, following in baptism early in grade school. It wasn't until high school that Judi developed that relationship with a strong commitment to fully serve Him with her life.
Judi has been privileged to work with students both in a discipleship capacity and through leadership and life coaching. She also brings a passion to provide a home-away-from-home atmosphere where students are able to converse easily with her about life and faith while rubbing shoulders in the very practical work of preparing meals or digging in the garden.
Dick met Judi while in college, where he was involved in campus ministry as a student leader under Bob Howe at Oregon State University. They married a year after his graduation.
Dick and Judi have six grown sons: Mark, Jon, Jeremy, Ben, Zack and Nathan, four of whom are married.
They have five grandsons and one little princess granddaughter so far. Family lives within easy visiting distance, and frequently Dick and Judi's table is expanded to fill the dining and living room – with students and friends included!

What You Need to Know About Extended Care Rehab
Often, people who are treated for substance abuse need more than the normal amount of time to recover. Therefore, they need to take advantage of additional recovery options that are designed for patients struggling with severe alcohol or drug addictions.
Most extended care recovery programs exceed 90 days, which is the normal time spent in a rehabilitation treatment. The programs and facilities at our Extended Care Rehab in Riverside are tailored to help patients who've failed in overcoming their addictions, using other choices. If you, or a loved one, need's additional time in overcoming an addiction, here's what you need to know about our Riverside extended care rehab.
Advantages of Extended Care Rehab
- It gives patients additional time to apply the recovery skills they've learned.
- The extra time encourages them to be more responsible, both in their work and with their families.
- Being in an extended care program helps patients function better emotionally.
- People learn how to manage their medications and are more educated about the medicines they need to take.
- Group and interpersonal living skills are taught and encouraged.
- Patients participate in individual, as well as family and group therapy.
Residential vs. Outpatient Treatment
Decide if you need residential or a Riverside extended care rehab. Outpatient treatment involves attending counseling and receiving medical treatments at predetermined days and times, while you get to live in your home as you're being treated.
On the other hand, you may do better living in a Riverside rehab facility. Inpatient care entails on-site, round-the-clock care. As a result, your recovery is your only concern during this period of time. In fact, you stand a better chance of recovery when you spend at least 90 days or more in a Riverside rehab program. The longer you stay in rehab, the more likely you won't relapse when you go back home.
Considerations and Warnings
- Sometimes, patients aren't the best judges in determining if they need extended stay rehab. That's why it's best to ask a counselor, or someone else whom you trust, for an honest and unbiased answer.
- Be sure any program you're considering has the right type of individual and group therapy choices suited for your particular needs.
- Ask if your spouse or other family members can be a part of your treatment.
- Make sure everyone on staff is both trained and certified for treating chemical dependency.
- Don't let a lack of finances stop you from getting help. Usually, there are organizations and individuals who are willing to help sponsor people who can't afford to pay for their time in rehab.
Our Extended Care Rehab in Riverside has a wide selection of programs designed to treat various types of substance abuses. Besides alcohol, there are comprehensive programs that focus on addictions such as heroin, Vicodin, Oxycontin, cocaine and meth.
Bluestone's highly trained and experienced staff is well-versed in all the available treatment programs. Please contact us if you, or someone you love, needs help in overcoming an addiction.
National average Relapse Rate
Below is the National Average Relapse Rate per addiction.
"In October 2011, I checked into Serenity Lodge, a residential treatment facility in Lake Arrowhead, CA. I stayed there successfully for one year until October 2012, and Mike Lyons was my counselor throughout my stay. I credit Mike for truly saving my life! I was suffering from multiple addictions, which were rooted in severe depression. Mike possesses a unique combination of qualities which helped guide me to a new way of thinking & to a sober life: he is compassionate, fair, bright, non-judgmental, insightful, a great listener, and his many years of sobriety speaks volumes about his successful approach. Because of Mike, I am now 3 1/2 years sober (with zero relapses), I have my 3 children solidly back in my life, and I am blessed with a wonderful new perspective as I look to my future. Thank you Mike, I am eternally grateful to you!!"
"I awoke on a very dark road at 35 years old and I was deeply lost. I stumbled upon a wonderful piece of hope and it came in the form of a mentor and counsellor by the name of Mike Lyons. Addiction is a touchy subject and Mike made it clear to me that I could change who I was and who I wanted to become. I am forever grateful to him."
"I met Mike Lyons during 2012 and was placed on his case load for approximately 6 months. It was not my first time in a treatment facility and I tend to set the bar high for case managers. Mike greatly exceeded my high expectations. It was an absolute pleasure to work with him. I quickly found that Mike is easy to converse with. He listens and gives feedback in a non-judgmental fashion that puts you at ease. I always felt I could be completely honest with Mike. He is also quite knowledgeable in the field of addiction. Mike used his years of experience as a case manager as well as his personable experience to facilitate stimulating and practical small groups. I feel fortunate to have had the experience of working with Mike and he continues to check up on me periodically. Most of all, he truly cares for all his clients."
"In March of 2013 I entered an alcohol treatment program, with the intent of getting my life back on track after a being arrested for a DUI. I entered treatment a broken man with a promising future. The DUI was not my first and I was going to start a Master's program at well-respected top notch university. Needless to say I had everything to lose. Michael Lyon was my counselor throughout 2014. Mike's experience proved to be a great asset in my journey towards sobriety and recovery. I could always depend on Mike to lend an ear and offer sound advice. The advice and mentoring that he unselfishly offered, saw me through some of the darkest most depressing days of my life. Mike genuinely cares for his clients. Over the course of six months we communicated daily, his genuine concern for my well-being and recovery was paramount. Although it may sound as if I was his only client, he provided the same level of compassion and care for all his clients and people in the recovery community gravitated towards him in an effort to "have what he has". Today I still keep in Contact with Mike and ask his advice from time to time."
"Mike Lyons is a true life saver. My son and our family were blessed to have had Mike counsel and care for our son, and through his love and dedication, Mike succeeded in bringing our son back to his prior health and happiness, and indeed actually making him healthier and happier than he had ever been before. I will consider myself forever blessed and fortunate because of Mike's caring and expert care. Mike does a lot more than help rehabilitate lives, he makes living truly enjoyable and meaningful. Our son has been doing very well, and our entire family today is happy and healthy, because of Mike. Mike has been God's gift to us. We are so glad that we selected Mike from the start, to help our son and our family heal and succeed."
"I've been in numerous rehabs and have had many case managers, but I can honestly say that Mike Lyons was the most engaging case manager I've ever had. He showed sincere interest in my thoughts and direction in the program. He's kept me working on my sobriety for longer than any other program I have been to. I can believe he will be a definite positive asset to anyone he pulls under his wing. Generally he's an all around good guy."

Gabon Film & Photography Production Services
Are you a media company, brand, ad agency or production company looking for film / photography production support or shooting crew in Gabon? We have fully vetted, locally based fixers, service producers, directors, DP's, videographers, cameramen, photographers, sound operators, production drivers, and a range of other film crew. Contact us for referrals, questions, cost estimates and references.
Want to know more about shooting in Gabon? See below for an introduction to Gabon locations, permits, when to shoot, costs, talent, crews, equipment, art department, studios, post facilities, visas and work permits, film friendly hotels, transport, communications and safety advice.
Gabon Film Locations
Gabon has some beautiful deserted beaches, rivers, lakes, rainforests, waterfalls and wildlife parks that are home to gorillas, elephants, and hippopotamuses. National parks of particular interest include Loango, Lopé, Akanda, and Ivindo National Park famous for the Djidji Waterfalls. Libreville is the capital and main entry point by air.
Gabon Film Location Permits
Our local fixer in Gabon will submit your project synopsis, dates, crew passport information pages, equipment list and completed application form to the Gabonese Ministry of Communication. The Film Permit can take up to a month to approve, so allow plenty of lead time. Once the permit is approved the fixer will apply for additional permits with the Park Management Authority, if planning to film somewhere like Loango National Park, or any other government authorities or private owners depending on the specifics of the shoot.
Please note, taking unauthorised photographs of the Presidential Palace, airport, and military or other government buildings is strictly forbidden and may be punishable with fines, arrest, and equipment confiscation.
Please contact us for location specific information.
When To Shoot?
Gabon has a tropical climate. The dry season and best time to film for weather is from June to August. The rainy season runs from October to May. For monthly weather statistics please see here.
Les Nuits Atypiques, held in August, celebrates traditional music from the Nyanga region.
Costs & Tax Incentives
Costs. Locations, local talent and support crew are inexpensive but since little to no filming infrastructure exists all key crew and equipment must be brought in from abroad. Our Gabonese fixer will negotiate local deals and provide the appropriate level of production support to match every budget.
The Central African CFA franc (XAF) is the official currency. Local ATM's are unreliable, so make sure to bring USD or Euros to exchange.
Tax Incentives. At present there are no tax incentives for foreign commercials or films shooting in Gabon.
Film Crew & Talent
Crews. Gabon has a very small local pool of directors, videographers and stills photographers. Key crew must be brought in from abroad.
Contact us if you are looking for a director, DP, photographer, videographer (cameraman / camera operator), camera assistant (focus puller), sound operator, grip, gaffer, stylist, hair and makeup, PA / runner, production driver, or any other film crew for your shoot in Gabon.
Talent day rates and buyouts are reasonable and negotiated on a personal basis. Gabon offers mainly African looking talent. Almost all Gabonese are of Bantu origin. All other talent looks need to be cast abroad. The official language of Gabon is French. English is not widely spoken.
Gabon Film Equipment
You will need to bring in all camera, grip and lighting equipment from abroad.
Art Department, Studios, Backlots, & Post Production
Art department and set construction is very basic.
Studios and backlots. None exist at present.
Post Production. Post abroad.
Visas & Work Permits
Most passport holders are required to apply for a visa to enter Gabon. Among other documents, applications must also include an Invitation Letter from your fixer / service producer in Gabon, as well as proof of yellow fever vaccination. For crew travelling on US passports, see here for more information. Contact your local Gabon embassy or representative for more information. For notes on Film Permits see notes in the Gabon Film Location Permits section.
Transport & Accommodation
Transportation Infrastructure. Gabon has a limited road network much of which is unpaved. Some areas can only be reached by river or air.

A lot of people struggle with quant timing, so don't get discouraged if this happens to you as well. As I said before, it is important to build up your pacing by doing lots of practice questions. You will then need to put the finishing touches on you pacing strategy while taking full-length practice tests.
Experiment with skipping questions. Pick the question types you take the most time on and still get wrong, and guess on them and move on. This will give you more time to answer questions you are more likely to get correct.
You can use some strategies to help improve your odds when guessing, if you have to guess. These strategies will help you improve accuracy, even if you are skipping a question. For example, take advantage of the fact that the test tries to trick you. If the question asks for the value of x+7, then look for answer choices that could be x and x+7 (like 5 and 12). Then, pick one of the x+7 options. If you can quickly figure out a range of options for the answer, for example its positive or it's a fraction that can also help improve your odds when guessing.
