How to raise your prices without losing your clients

Eventually in your business you’ve probably considered or are forced to increase your fees or prices. And for many doing so without losing your most valuable clients/customers comes with a level of anxiety and perhaps fear.

Will they go to another competitor?
Will they begin to bad mouth me and tarnish my reputation?
Will they simply laugh at me and threaten to leave if I raise my prices another penny?


However at some point, especially if you offer time based services (charge by the hour), you’ll need to increase your fees, give yourself a raise and expand your business. We all have the same 24 hours a day it’s impossible if you are a solo entrepreneur to grow your biz without hiring new staff, or increasing fees.
So If you’re in that critical space where your palms are sweating, you’re staring at your bank account or an open email to your client where you have to break the news that you must raise your fees - here’s what you need to do and how to go about raising your prices.

1st. EVALUATE YOUR TOP CLIENT LIST. While all your clients/customers are important to you, those that consistently invest in your services are your Top clients. Evaluate the services you clearly offer to your top paying (or frequent paying) clients. What are they buying from you? What questions or issues do they seem to have that you may not be charging them for? What are they saying about your services right now? Often clients will hire you for what they think they need and then realize they need you for more.It’s up to you to be in the position of power to realize exactly what that is. There is hidden (profit) potential in those unspoken needs of your clients.

2nd TURN IT INTO A PACKAGE. Turn what they buy from you that is related to task/time (hourly) into packaged automated services. Ex. when I created Your Simple Bookkeeper, I created it as a monthly automated service to tackle bookkeeping task at a monthly recurring fee. This allowed me to package my “time driven” services and hire other bookkeepers to actually do the work so I could be available to offer higher end consulting services. Automating (or systemizing) your services and business is a common struggle for business owners as many like the control of knowing they did the work, however remember there are only 24 hours a day and you need most of them to work ON your business (more clients, partnerships, exposure) not IN. Your clients will appreciate your keen insight into entrepreneurship.

3rd MAKE IT SIMPLE. Create one sheets of those simple services you’re now automating or have created packages for. One sheets are literally that, a one sided designed document with your service or product description on it. It gives the reader all the information they NEED to know about what you offer to make a decision on hiring you. You can place your new automated time driven services on your website or "work with me" page. Ensure to include a payment link so potential customers can submit a payment (or if you need them to inquire first - a way for them to email you). Automate your hourly based services as much as possible. 

4th. SEND A LETTER. Send your existing clients a letter – written to them as specifically as possible (or call them, invite to coffee, etc) and explain to them that you are seeking to expand and offer more services to them and want to serve them in more ways. Having this personal touch goes along way. Like in #1 - getting to know your clients is important. You are in the position of power - you were hired to provide a solution and often that solution isn't in what you're being paid for, but in those consistent questions you're being asked that you're not charging for. Once you've realized that, and have now increased your fees. Compassionately talk to your clients, get them on board - you'll find that most are eager and ready to have you do more for them.

5th. MAKE IT COMPLIMENTARY. You may offer them the same services they are currently buying from you at a slightly higher fee (your new higher price) but you’ll offer 2 of your task driven services for “free” or “complimentary” Ex. YSB’s bookkeeping services are $75 an hour for most businesses. Our Small Business packages run form $150 a month to $1250 a month. At the $1250 level, bookkeeping becomes “complimentary” as the bulk of the services they are getting become more consultative in nature. 

There are countless other strategies that I’ll share in subsequent blog post about how to do this, but these 5 steps are great starters. The moral of the story is to not become self-victimized by fear of losing clients when it’s time to raise your fees. Do it with confidence, and be clear on WHY you’re doing it. You could lose some clients, but again you probably WILL open yourself to a new group of clients eager to pay your higher fee :-) .

Content marketing is not just about saying something. It’s about saying what matters, both to you and those you want to serve. One goal that serves, both ends is “Thought Leadership“.

Thought Leadership, an admirable and attractive content marketing goal to set.

I mean, it sounds good, right? And you’re brilliant enough, no question.

But, thought leadership takes a certain commitment. A commitment to consistently say something important, sometimes controversial and the courage to be heard.

And to be honest, it carries a certain weight and power that frankly is scary and intimidating to a lot of business owners.

There’s a lot of talk about “King Content” these days and how you need a lot of it to attract and retain clients. However, it’s not until we can get over our fear of creating content for our online business in the first place, that we can achieve our goal to lead in thought.

 Do You Fit the Profile of a Thought Leader?

@MarlaTabaka asks readers to examine this question in her Thought Leadership 2.0 article publishes on Inc.com.

“A thought-leader is someone who is willing to step into the spotlight and voice their points of view, innovative ideas, and potentially controversial opinions. He drives conversation and peppers the Internet and other outlets with his insights, ideas, and expertise. She inspires others to follow their dreams and teaches them to think big, solve problems, and face their fears.”

When it Comes to Thought Leadership,
Are You More Like Scrappy or Scooby?

This may seem a silly question, but I have three small boys at home and I think in cartoons, so allow me to humor you for a moment.

Now, in my experience, people respond one of two ways when it comes to stepping out in this way:

1. Scrappy Doo: Let me at em’ – Enthusiastically, Yes, I really want to do this, I just don’t have time or know where to start.

2. Scooby Doo: Fearfully & insecurely, I don’t really have anything important to say, who am I?

The first response is pretty easy to resolve. These people are ready to burst through the gate. Give them a little direction and the right tools and they’ll be influencing all over the place. If this is you, stop reading this and contact me right away so we can get you on the map.

But, their are a lot of people who respond out of fear. The irony is, they are leading in thought everyday in a quiet and safe way.

When I have conversations with people about their business, something magical happens. They are passionate, opinionated and unafraid to be heard. Their goal in the moment is to be helpful and informative. They tell stories to help me understand complex ideas and I leave the conversation feeling smarter and grateful for the opportunity to have met them. They “fit the profile”.

It’s content at it’s best. These are the stories the advice and conversations that need to be shared on real and virtual stages.

But all too often, these conversations are never had and the stories never told to the people who need to hear it the most. Your target audience.

 Do I Have to Be a Thought Leader to be Successful?

Well, no. You can be successful without being a thought leader. But, your journey will be long and hard fought. Because, the truth is, there’s so much noise out there. There are so many people saying the same thing that prospects and customers can’t tell the difference.

So, I guess the question I’d ask you is, do you want to be THE CHOICE or just one of the best? If you answered the choice, then YES…It’s time to step into the spotlight!

Here are three questions to answer if you want to establish yourself as a leading voice and choice in your area of expertise:

  1.  What do competitors in your market do, that makes your prospects problem worse or more complicated?

  2. What questions “should” your prospects be asking?For example: If you are a health coach or practitioner, are they asking “How can I loose weight fast?”  when they should be asking “How can I loose weight quickly and healthily”?
  3. What types of content are you comfortable producing that you can commit to producing and promoting on a regular basis?Are you better at speaking than writing? Then maybe knocking out a weekly podcast may be the way to go. Do words pour out of you like a faucet? If so, write til your hearts’ content and post a weekly blog article or apply to be a guest author. The point is, don’t get caught up in what all the “gurus” tell you you should be doing. Start with what works best for you and create your own blueprint!

Are You Struggling with Stepping Out in a Bigger Way? Are you a Thought Leader Who Has Some Additional Tips or Insights That Can Help? Please join the FB conversation , I’d love to hear from you!

http://GoodCreditUnion.com 1-800-652-7157 In this video, I show a new CPN file. This client has a 2 Au's and 1 Primary which had give him high 700's across the board.  Once he had access to his file he went and opened up a checking accont with WellsFargo and Navy Federal. He had success in that, however he applied for a loan and was turned down.  The reason he was turned down is because he did not hhave enough primaries on the credit file,

We instruct all clients not to apply for any loans especially government loans because the file is not strong enough.   We you jump the gun like this guy you could cause problems for yourself.

DO NOT EVER, EVER, EVER APPLY FOR ANY TYPE OF GOVERNMENT LOANS WITH YOUR CPN.  YOU CAN GET YOURSELF INTO ALOT OF TROUBLE.

DO NOT USE AN ADDRESS YOU LIVED AT BEFORE OR HAD MAIL SEND TO IN THE PAST, YOU CAN CROSS UP YOUR FILE.

DO NOT HAVE MULTIPLE NAMES BECAUSE THE CREDIT BUREAUS WILL GIVE YOU A DELAY ON YOUR FILE.

THE ONLY USE FOR YOUR CPN IS TO GET CREDIT FROM NON GOVERNMENT LENDING INSTITUTIONS, THAT MEANS NO MORTGAGES.

You can have a lot of success with a cpn if you have the right people around you.  We encourages you to clean up your personal credit first before you get a CPN.

Hiring Vendors and Staying Sane

Got a special project, a special event?  Have you decided to hire some help?

10744091453?profile=originalYou will quickly discover that there are varying standards of excellence and performance.  Avoid drama trauma; do these 4 things.

  1. Clearly state the scope of work.  Make sure you thoroughly outline the areas the vendor will be responsible for.  This can serve as a guide for the work that will be completed and can also help in narrowing your search to those who have specific experience in these areas.

  2. Communicate expectations.  Openly share your thoughts and expectations of each section of the scope of work with the potential vendor so that there are no misunderstandings; everyone is on the same page.  Take a section/definition and ask the vendor, ‘What does this mean/look like to you?’  Clarify any differences and determine if you can comfortably continue with this vendor based on what you’re looking for and the outcome of this discussion.

  3. Ensure the person you’re hiring can actually do the work.   Not only should they be able to perform the tasks, but the work performance should be above par.  Sometimes you’ll come across those who say they can do a variety of things, but they may only be proficient in one or two areas.  Unless you’re hiring for an entry level, on-the-job training position, don’t hire a novice.Go beyond reference checks.  Both a Motel 6 and Ritz Carlton have a place for you to lay your head, but the experiences are totally different!  Ultimately, the outcome is a reflection of you, your business, and your brand. If the vendor is responsible for the overall look and feel, and the experience of the end user, make sure they can deliver.

  4. Make sure you are covered in the event of non performance.  After you’ve crossed the t’s, dotted the i’s, the final stroke is to make sure your contract with the vendor includes language that covers you in the event the vendor doesn’t perform.  Clearly lay out what will happen if the work is not completed per the written agreement and what recourse will be taken.

There you have it.  What have you done to successfully hire a vendor?

Why Debt Free?

When I’m not blogging, I manage the other family business; a coin-operated laundromat. The work is less than fabulous, but I spend an enormous amount of time with people – that I love. A brief conversation with a long-time customer (and previous employee…long story) landed on home ownership. I shared how we are selling a rental condo and looking to pick up a few more soon. This young man is a hard worker, looking for a larger place for his family, and a renter. He’d never considered buying until our conversation. Then it hit me. This is exactly why we’re so passionate about debt freedom. OPTIONS!!!

Renting is perfectly legitimate. Home ownership, and moreover being a landlord, is not for everyone. However, debt freedom affords you the option to choose. Harry Dent Jr., author of The Roaring 2000s, suggests that more millionaires got their start during the Great Depression than in any other time in our nation’s history. I totally understand why.

http://GoodCreditUnion.com 1-800-652-7157 Authorize Users(AU) used for credit score booster still works.  Piggy backing someones whole credit file is what's challenging these days.  
Most of us don't realize how hard the financial industry was hit with all these regulations.  Because of that credit bureaus have made it challenging for people to repair their credit.  Yes, you still can use AU's to boost the credit score.  The piggy backing a whole credit file is the challenging part.

Let's talk about credit profile numbers(cpn) and secondary credit numbers(scn), as I stated in another video these 2 numbers are legal numbers.  However, you must make sure whom ever you retrieve these numbers from that they are not giving you an already existing number. such as a baby's ssn, an inmate or an deceased personhttp://BusinessCreditAmerica.com 1-800-652-7157

Confessions of a Grocery Store Snob

We are mid way through our New Year New You contest and a tip for Day #10 hits close to home.

Day 10: Shop Discount Grocers

I’m a Debt Free Diva, but I will admit, I was a bit of a grocery store snob. I judged stores by location and perceptions about the clientele served. I’m not proud.

After a recent (and hopefully temporary) reduction in household income, I was looking for additional ways to conserve cash. One of our largest variable expenses is groceries.

My grocery store is close, has a huge advertising budget, and is one of the more expensive chains available in the city. Did I say it was close? As a lark, I decided to try Aldi – the deep discount chain mainly available in less affluent communities. My grandma, on a fixed income, shops at Aldi. Pride aside, with a need to save money, I gave Aldi a try. To my snobbery surprise, the store was clean, the produce was fresh, and I saved nearly 35% over my normal spending total.

A Raise in 21 Days

We're convinced it takes 21 days to build a habit. Effective money management is a learned skill. Have you missed any Tips of the Day in our new push to Give Yourself a Raise in 21 Days? No problem. A recap is the best way to catch up.

Day 2: Know where it goes.

Tracking is essential to preparing a proper plan: your budget. Little things add up. Take a week to write down everything you spend. Add it up. The results just may surprise you.

 

Day 3: Post your budgets.

In the beginning, WonderMan and I would create fantastic, color coordinated, detailed budgets. We’d email them, marvel over the advanced, tabular-linking functionality (yes, we’re nerds), and then forget about it for the next two months (nerds with ADD). Once I stripped it down to relevant data, made it fit on one page, and posted that puppy on the fridge; we stuck with it. Keep your budget simple and make sure you see it on a regular basis.

 

Day 4:  Find a Money Buddy

An accountability partner can help keep you focused on your goals and pull your card when tempted to go rouge. Make sure this is someone who is fiscally responsible with enough chutzpah to apply tough love whenever needed.

Simple Savings Strategies

A savings fund is your best defense against forces that seek to derail your debt free momentum. Yes! Forces intent on keeping you mired in money mishaps, floundering in financial fiascos, or let’s face it – deep in debt are real. Alliterative exercises aside, a savings fund is a must have. It’s just not always an easy must do.

Before tackling a debt repayment plan, set up a Mad Money Fund. This fund should contain at least $1000 (depending on your comfort level). Some balk at the low figure, but consider your recent emergencies. Would $1000 have been sufficient? Don’t dread using the cushion in a genuine emergency. The Mad Money Fund exists so you avoid the madness when emergencies happen.

  1. Start your budget. The quickest way to give yourself a raise is to tell your money where to go. You do that with a budget.
  2. Setup auto saving. Redirect money to your savings using automatic tools. You don’t miss what you don’t see.
  3. Sell everything. What are you hoarding that can be converted into cash? Ebay. Craig’s List. Garage Sale. Clean house and build your savings.
  4. Stash windfalls. Do you have a lump some coming? Instead of spending before you receive, plan on using that to pad your savings.
  5. Seek extra income. Do you have a marketable service? Hire yourself out. Secure part-time income and save up.

Trying to pay off debt without a savings stash is like filling a leaky bucket. Eventually, frustration may cause you to give up completely. The Mad Money Fund will help you avoid using credit so emergencies don’t derail your debt repayment plans.

Do you have other simple savings strategies to share?

Black Girlz Talk

Black Girlz Talk

Coming soon is a web based talk show, Black Girlz Talk. Our goal is to showcase African American women in a positive light. In the meantime, check out some of our articles. This quarter topic is relationships.

Why is it so hard to find a good man?

We often complain about the difficulties we face when searching for Mr. Right.  It’s not enough good men in the world.   No one can live up to my standards.  All men are dogs.  He is a male gold-digger.  All men cheat.  I’ve heard it all. Blah. Blah. Blah.  Stop dating the same man over and over again.  If you want change, you have to do something about it. I know that most people don’t like stepping outside of their comfort zone. But remember what do you call a person that keeps doing the same thing and expects different results? Insane. 

I’ve talked to a lot of single women that are carrying baggage from one relationship to another.  I tell everyone you can’t give someone your all until all your doors have been closed.  Just like the airlines only one free small checked bag, leave the rest at the gate.  When you get to a point where you are ready to date, take your time and proceed with caution. There are still some good men in the world, but here are a few of my favorite Mr. Wrongs:

The computer love

The computer love is the guy with the cute pictures on Match.com, Blackplanet, and Facebook. Based on your profiles you are a match made in heaven.  This is the person you are secretly obsessed with but too scared to tell your girlfriends because you don’t want to be judged.  So you go by yourself to meet him for the first date, but guess what. He looks nothing like his picture.  You respectfully say, “You look different in your pictures.”  He explains it was a picture of him 75 pounds ago. You laugh it off, but deep down inside you feel played.

Mr. out of my league

Let’s keep it real. It may be easy to catch a fish, but it hard to keep it from slipping out of your hand. This is the man that is out of your league.  He has himself together and searching for someone to compliment him.  How can you keep this winner if you have nothing to offer?  Looks get old, but substance is priceless.

The pretender

The pretender is the guy who pretends to be whatever you want him to be: the church boy who can’t quote a scripture, the entrepreneur whose credit score is 300, and the man who claims to love his momma but refers to every woman that has pissed him off as the b word.  This is the type of man that completely loses himself when he dates.  Who wants a man that has no self-identity?

Mr. Married to my job.

A man can’t give you his all until he is satisfied with himself.  He has to feel like he can love, honor, cherish and take care of you.  Don’t date someone who does not have time for you.  Ladies, you can’t change him. Keep it moving.

I’m single but married.

Ladies, just because a man says he is single doesn’t mean he is divorced.  Don’t play yourself.  Dating a married man is like working a dead end job with no opportunity for advancement.  Nobody wants to work a dead end job! Everyone deserves to move up the ladder.

Mr. Illusionist.

This is the man that gives you the illusion that he is perfect.  When you first meet him, it is love at first sight. He has great looks, dressed to the nines, expensive car, good job and the gift of gab meaning he can talk any woman out of her panties.  If something looks too good to be true, it probably is.  Therefore, it is important to take time to get to know a person before you fall victim to the illusion.  If you give up your goods to early, you miss a lot of red flags.  Take your time. It can save a lot of heartache.

Now, I know you are asking what can I do to put an end to this dating curse.  The answer is to get yourself together and do a little soul searching.  Instead of evaluating ourselves, we point the finger at everyone else.  One of my teachers used to say if you point one finger, you have four pointing back at you.  As women, we often settle for the sake of not being alone.  This usually leads to trouble. Remember, the first step to self- improvement is to love yourself flaws and all.

Take a moment and look in mirror.  What do you see?  Why are you scared of being alone?  Are you where you want to be in life?  Can you stand on your own two feet?  Are you comfortable in your own skin?  Do you have your finances in order?  Are you open to try new things?  Are you ready to be in a relationship?  Do you have time to give someone your all?  Are your standards set to high? Are you really five karat worthy?  Are you wife material?  After you answer these questions, create a game plan on how to be the best you.  Determine the areas that need work and make improvements.  No one is perfect.  It’s time for you to become Mrs. Right so you can stop attracting Mr. Wrong.

What happen to the cellphone?!

What happen to the cellphone?!
Rickey Johnson, Juniques MultiCultural Connections
http://www.jusmcc.org

Hello Community,

As I watch people enter the home base business market, it occurred to me, one area of
business development should be important. Staying relevant.

Remember the cellphone popularity? How it appeared to be a major communication leap?
How it seemed to be the most advanced communication event that could happen?
How it would be here for years to come.
How it created new businesses and close others?


Technology really advances quickly. Many times that advancement obsolete earlier advancement.
The communication device that is falling into that reality, is the cellphone.

Remember, how it exciting it was to have this electronic equipment that send and receive a
telephone call, while you were mobile. Where you could be reached "by phone" anywhere in the country!!!

The cellphone, put the cord and cordless phone to "shame". Now, you can find a telephone, but you will have to search for it, yes, cord and cordless phones are a rarity.

Oh yes,The cellphone, in its communication advancement, obsoleted the pager. The electronic device that allowed you to receive a tone to "tell" you had a phone message, then it advanced to be able to "show' the number calling.
WOW!!! All had to do was find a phone!!!!

Now, the mobile phone i.e cellphone is about to experience that same communication progression.
the cord, cordless phone and pager did.

Soon you will be hard pressed to find just a celluar mobile device. The Mobile device is
has arrived in "full force".


The Mobile Device is here to stay. This handheld device that has an operating system and
can use computer program applications. Why it even comes with wi-fi, bluetooth and GPS capablilty, a camera, media player, and a storage battery, that allows the user to be mobile.

Mobile Computers!!!!! That is are communication progression.

The impact is being felt in any industry that relies on just providing send/receive communication service. Any company who's "strength" is providing send/receive service, will be challenged to
stay "consumer-able".

I suspect, mobile devices will obsolete many of the communication devices we thought we be around for
years.

The communication consumer is being accustomed to being able to not only send and receive voice calls, but, audio/visual communications, i.e videos. To have a device that can "run" computer programs. To have communications delivered mobilely and "on-demand".

So keep this progress in mind as you build your business. Stay mindful of industry advancements.
Position yourself so you do not become "obsolete" when a progression in a industry could be
your opportunity or your demise.

Reminds of this song, Enjoy

Everything Must Change Lyrics
Nina Simone

Everything must change
Nothing stays the same
Everyone will change
No one, no one stays the same

The young become the old
And mysteries do unfold
For that's the way of time
No one, and nothing goes unchanged

There are not many things in life one can be sure of
Except rain comes from the clouds
Sun lights up the sky
Hummingbirds fly

Winter turns to spring
A wounded heart will heal
Oh, but never much too soon
No one, and nothing goes unchanged

The young become the old
And mysteries do unfold
For that's the way of time
No one, and nothing stays unchanged

There are not many things in life one can be sure of
Except rain comes from the clouds
Sun lights up the sky
Hummingbirds fly

Rain comes from the clouds
Sun lights up the sky
Hummingbirds fly

Rain comes from the clouds
Sun lights up the sky
Hummingbirds fly

Everything must change

The facilitator of this event is Byron Reese....and Micore' International is proud to welcome Byron Reese as a new Hair Consultant! Byron has been one of the top hair brokers in Atlanta for years, even consistently selling dozens of kilos per month of Caviar Platinum hair....BEFORE Caviar Platinum existed!!!

Achal Jain joined forces with Derrick Alexander to provide his hair to Micore' exclusively, and CAVIAR PLATINUM was born!

Byron has thousands of clients and contacts in the hair business and has dedicated his corporate office headquarters to weekly TUESDAY meetings to WAKE ATLANTA BACK UP!

MEETING TONIGHT 7:00PM SHARP

Salon Deliveries: 3201 Atlanta Industrial Pkwy #206 Atlanta, Ga 30331

285 to Bankhead Hwy, then West. After Bolton Rd turn Right into the Industrial Bus Park

Soon floating meetings will start back up in different areas on other nights at hair salons, hotels, etc....to reach ALL of Atlanta!

WHY is Atlanta excited??? Because SO many things are happening at Micore' in 2013!

Southern Hair Superstar TONI LOVE has joined Micore' as Director of Micore' University! WOW

Atlanta Urban Cosmetic Giant Anita Bohannon of BOVANTI Cosmetics has joined forces with Micore' to introduce hair to their 30,000 customers and promote Micore' in up to 25 trade shows per year! WOW

NEW PRODUCT NEWS!

Micore' International is preparing to introduce a new HAIR GROWTH product to the world! The Cosmoceutical Research Center has developed an AMAZING product that stimulates real hair growth, which results in thicker, fuller hair! The only problem CRC had was marketing, until they found Micore'!

The President of CRC was Vice-President of Neutrogena for 15 years and developed T-Gel among other products. CRC formulates products for many known companies and brands, but the products they sell to Micore' will be exclusive! 

While we work on designing new packaging and a unique product name for Micore', we have been asked to help CRC with an inventory BLOWOUT SALE to sell off their existing product! (Normal retail for the Hair Growth product will be $300 for a 3-month supply, but the sale price will be $180! When you sell this you will make $45 at Retail (25%), plus the product VOLUME commissions from your downline Team!

Hair Loss is right behind Weight Loss as one of the number one phrases in search engines!

Soon you will be able to sell this hair growth product to dozens of customers of all ages, all races, and genders! Every Micore' rep should set a goal to get 10 customers on AUTOSHIP (1st month) and watch your residual income go through the roof!

HAIR is the same structure as SKIN and NAILS! CRC has products for all three! YES Micore' markets the BEST HAIR....but we'll also market the BEST HAIR-CARE and SKIN CARE and NAIL CARE products on the market!

Some of these products will be released at our official LAUNCH!

Many of you are asking "WHEN ARE WE GOING TO LAUNCH?"...and you should be asking. We have decided to have our Launch EVENT in March, and expect to select the venue/date this week.

The bottom line is you can only Launch an MLM company ONE TIME! There are no do-overs!

We want this event to be spectacular, with 1000 plus in the room! Where we will introduce a new website, new products, and new superstars....to thousands of NEW PROSPECTS!!!!

A Launch is not a "party" for the Members....it's to GO PUBLIC with the CONCEPT!

We are all excited about 2013 guys....and you should be too!

NOW GO TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW IN ATLANTA TO GET TO TONIGHT'S MEETING!

To your success!
