<p>Companies who set out to solve market problems have enthusiasm as they are on a quest to serve their market. They constantly strive to uncover unresolved problems and solve them in breakthrough ways.</p>
<p>I look forward to learning more about your APM club.</p>

<p>Just as marketing the essence of your business vs. marketing a commodity based service, is perceived to be a risk. </p>
<p>There is some truth to that, as not everyone will get what you offer when it is being offered from an emotional place. </p>
<p>However, once we move past the fear and better understand one doesn’t need everyone to get it, there is nothing more contagious than enthusiasm and emotion. </p>
<p>What I am most enthusiastic about in my business right now? </p>
<p>-Continue the success, I have seen over the last year, due to fueling my business with emotion. </p>
<p>Thank you for such great insight, in your post. <br />

I read recently in "The Art of Possibility" (by Rosamund and Benjamin Stone) about an example of the importance of our perceptions. They shared a scenario of two shoe salespeople sent to check out market opportunities in a region of Africa. One writes back that the situation is hopeless because no one WEARS shoes. The other writes back that there is a tremendous opportunity because no one HAS shoes. </p>
<p>Many opportunities to apply that thinking in my business. For instance, 80% of respondents to a Training Magazine survey report having Problem Solving Training in place. Two potential takes on this news. One, business will by hard to come by because most have a solution in place and it will be hard to unseat an incumbent. Alternatively, 80% know they need Problem Solving training and almost all have an inferior solution to the one we propose.</p>Ruth Dubinsky commented on 'Your Enthusiasm Quotient'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8345339ee69e2010535bf1cd9970b2008-10-28T14:40:46Z2008-10-28T14:40:46ZRuth DubinskyIt's exciting, motivating and energizing to know that I offer bottom-line value to my clients.

Thanks for reminding me to feed that enthusiasm, rather than cave in to uncertainty and fear. </p>Pamela Slim commented on 'Your Enthusiasm Quotient'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8345339ee69e2010535c4a49e970c2008-10-28T07:48:50Z2008-10-28T07:48:51ZPamela Slimhttp://www.escapefromcubiclenation.comExcellent article Robert, and congratulations on the launch of your new service!
