~ THE GOLDEN RULE IN BUSINESS ~
by Barbara Casey
When I read Wallace D. Wattles' 1910 classic book "The Science of
Getting Rich - or - Financial Success Through Creative Thought," one
idea jumped out, begging to be expanded upon.
"You must give every person more in use value than you take from him in
cash value. Then, you are adding to the life of the world with every
business transaction."
Business is essentially a mutually-agreed upon practice to exchange one
form of energy for another. GOOD business is selling a person something
that adds more to his life than the thing he gave you in exchange
(usually money).
If a person feels he has received excellent value in his dealings with
you, he is likely to become a repeat customer. You have improved his
life with your product or service and he, in turn, has increased your
income, thus allowing you to more fully develop and express your own
life.
Giving from your heart helps you receive blessings in return. It's a
cornerstone concept of the spiritual marketing approach to business.
If you're a teacher, your instruction will contribute more to your
students' well-being than is reflected by the twenty or thirty dollar
admission fee. An artist can add beauty and inspiration to a person's
life far above the selling price of his artworks. A good healer offers
priceless peace of mind in addition to amelioration of a specific health
issue.
But be CONSCIOUS of providing this extra value. In every instance, offer
an extra service or put your utmost ability and talent into the creation
of the object to be sold. When you always strive for your best, you
attract the best - clients, employees, partners. People feel the power
of your energy, in contrast to the multitude of others who just settle
for "getting by."
The "Secrets of Success" aren't secrets at all. They're just the
practical applications of consciously living our lives in tune with The
Infinite. Real success will have arrived when we can do this
unconsciously - without having to think about it at all. But in the
meantime, books like "The Science of Getting Rich" help us stay on
course.

~ DO UNTO OTHER MARKETING METHODOLOGY ~
by Diana Kennedy
We’ve all heard the Golden Rule, “Do unto others as you would have them
do unto you.” Did you know that this little proverb is also found in all
the world’s major religions? From the New Testament we read, “All things
whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye so to them; for
this is the law and the prophets.” (Matthew 7:12)
As individuals, we intend to put this into practice and many times we
succeed. Have you ever encountered businesses that you wished followed
this axiom? What about your own business? Have you been able to
successfully put this principle into practice? Are you reaping the full
reward of operating your business on Universal Laws?
Using spiritual principles creates an environment suitable for conscious
enterprise. By conscious, I mean aware. Running your business with
awareness means that your company's practices, policies and businesses
plans (including sales and marketing strategies) all come into alignment
with the spiritual values that you hold.
Ever noticed the hype of so many offers?
Recently, I was visiting a website that stated that their product had a
special price for the next 24 hours. Since I was considering purchasing
the product for a friend, but couldn’t discuss it with the friend until
she returned from out of town the following week, I was very
disappointed. The next day I went back to visit that site, and the “so
called” special was still on, still attempting to create a sense of
desperation in me, their potential customer, to BUY NOW by telling me
that the special was on for the next 24 hours only.
Well, obviously the special price was never meant to last only 24 hours.
The website was programmed to tell each visitor that only 24 hours was
left on the reduced price for the product that I was interested in. I
felt very manipulated; yet it stimulated some great conversation for me
and some colleagues around what it means to run a business with
spiritual principles.
I know there are many experts out there who would tell us how to run our
businesses in order to make millions, and perhaps we can listen and see
how their advice can align with our deep spiritual knowing. Then and
only then can we move forward and take action, knowing that we run a
conscious enterprise.
I’ve heard this question from those in business, “How can I create
excitement so that my customers buy? Can I be in integrity with my own
values and still run promotions? Is it possible to sell without hype?”
I also hear this frequently: “I've heard that ‘spiritually minded
people’ are poor sales people.” This doesn't have to be true. We can be
the fair, honest, and creative people that we are and still create
excitement for our products and services, and make a profit!
What would a more conscious "Do Unto Others" marketing approach be to
selling products and services? How would spiritual values be outpictured
in business?
The spiritual entrepreneur utilizes intuitive marketing. In other words,
the business owner operating from his or her spiritual nature is able to
listen to the still small voice of spirit for guidance on what products
or services to develop and sell, who to market to, and how to best serve
their clients and employees.
When I started putting into practice the methodology I call “Do Unto
Others Marketing,” doors began to open for me. Once I got clear on what
I had to offer, aligned with my inner values, and followed Universal
Laws, things just seemed to “fall into place.”
One technique I teach in my Do Unto Others Marketing Email Class is
getting in touch with the essence of your goals. In other words, ask
yourself what is the feeling I am truly going for? This helps you gain
clarity about your deepest, most spiritual desires. Then people,
resources and events come together. You will find more and more that you
just happen to be at the right place at the right time. Other techniques
are used to attract the right and perfect customers, using Universal
Laws.
Some things to consider… Is what you are offering in total alignment
with who you are? Are you “in business” for the right reasons? Do all
your products and services line up with your values? How do you market
your products and services?
Our thoughts and intentions are made up of energy, or vibrations, that
go out into the world and attract back to us that which is similar.
Through our energy and use of words we set the tone for our customers -
not a tone of desperation, but of enthusiasm to buy and use our products
and services now. We can use timelines, special prices, incentives to
purchase, and not manipulate with hype. Through using the techniques of
the Law of Attraction we are able to draw to us our ideal client.
Being in conscious enterprise, we assume that our current and potential
customers are intelligent, loving beings much like ourselves who want to
grow and make the world a better place. Encouraging our customers to
follow their inner guidance when making a purchase honors them and
builds a relationship based on respect. This is what creates
relationships and serves the customer… and isn’t that what being in
business is all about?
