Students Of Success

We are all accustomed to dialing 411 when it comes to gaining instant access to local directory phone numbers. We have all used this service, and yes, we have all looked at our bills at the end of the month in total dismay.

While widely agreed on the value of the service it is costly! Some companies these days can charge up to or over $1.00 just to dial this service. These charges easily add up to another costly expense on your monthly phone bill. We are shocked to even watch how .25 charges can add up and we all vow to not use it, but you know you do, and will again. How will you get around this ever so dreaded 411 charge without incurring the inconvenience of never dialing 411 again?

There is a free way my friends. While the number is a bit inconvenient, a little memorizing or autodial programming and you’ll be dialing free directory inquiries as much as you want cost free.

While the number is toll free, it must be remembered that normal per minute cell phone charges will apply. This number can be dialed from any phone however so get your pencils ready. 1-800-FREE-411 or 1-800-373-3411

The service is free but unlike normal 411 you will not get a live operator. The system is automated through voice prompting. So a little extra dialing and a little memory jogging and you can save your wallet a bundle. Again this works from any phone, so happy information seeking folks!

Relationship Constellations

Finding the hidden dynamics in relationship systems within
organisations

Dr.Eddy Kloprogge

Introduction

The word organisation comes from “organic”, a system that
organises (organism), following certain universal rules.

Either in the family, school or any other organisation,
individuals form different levels of relationships, which
themselves form regulating systems. Those systems determine a
large part of our daily lives. People are born within a system
(family, community etc) or choose to become a member of a
system, for example, when joining a club or starting to work for
an organisation. Once part of a system, regardless of your
opinion, you are also part of the dynamics within that system.

Unit of knowledge

When we take one cell from a person (one unit), science has
proven that that cell contains all the information of the total
body of that person. We call the information in one cell the
“unit of knowledge.”

When we take one person out of a system, that person contains
all the information of that system. That person contains the
“unit of knowledge” from that system.

One person contains different units of knowledge from different
systems.

Communication

When you have Person A, who needs to communicate with Person B,
to achieve a certain goal, it is obvious that both persons have
to negotiate the outcome of that communication.

Pure communication is a form of art that needs quite some
consideration:

When people meet for the first time, they use reference points
of understandings that are built from their own history of
memories, experiences and intelligence. Without these references
one cannot communicate (example: you have to understand the
meaning of the spoken words). However, those references are not
always that clear (the meaning of a certain word is subject to
interpretation). Understanding between life partners can be very
good, but it may have taken years before those partners started
to know each other. When you meet a person for the first time
(like a customer and a sales person in a shop) the communication
takes place on assumed (learned) understandings, which can be
misinterpreted by subconscious interference of reference points
(like somebody talks like one’s diseased dominant destructive
father). The negotiation of the outcome of the communication (a
sale) can be quite different when the interpretation of a
certain language was compared with unconscious interference of
reference points of a voice that resembles that of a very dear
loving friend. Then there are the hidden “agendas” of the
persons involved: person A wants to buy something, trying to get
some discount, while person B wants to sell not only the item,
but some other goods as well. During the communication all sorts
of levels of feelings will express themselves by intonation of
the voice, body language etc. Both persons will react on those
signals (transference), which will then give counter reactions
(counter transference) and therefore interfere with the “clear”
communication.

We can compare the communication process with a floating
iceberg. When we consider the “pure” communication (that is the
communication without all the interferences like transference
and counter transference) as the visible top of the iceberg (10
% that is above the surface of the water), then the rest of the
communication (90%) is not visible, but dominates the
communication process.

Relationships

Relationships, which are the building blocks of systems, are
based on communication. We believe that when we are dealing with
issues and problems within a system or organisation, we locate
those problems at the level of communication. We now can make
the hidden parts of the communication process (the under water
part of the iceberg) visible with a technique called: System
Constellation or Organisational Constellation.

Organisational constellation

The word constellation comes from the positioning of the stars
and planets in the universe. Organisational constellation is the
positioning of elements (people, influences etc) in an open
space, using subconscious knowledge of the participants.

A person sets up a constellation by placing people (including a
substitute for him or her self) intuitively in a specific
configuration that represents an issue they want to have a look
at. This provides a living map of key elements within a
particular situation. Rather than simply talking about, or just
looking at a ’snap shot’ of what is happening, participants will
be able to see clearly into the interaction of these key
elements.

Experience has shown that participants in the constellation
become aware of the meaning of their own place. The conscious
knowledge of this place and the position of others make space
for acceptance and meaning.

An unconscious level exists in all systems formed by man; this
can be interpreted as the system’s collective sub-conscious. The
members of a system are generally unaware of the dynamics
originating from this. The patterns that determine the dynamics
in systems are often complex and intangible for the people
participating in the system. For this reason they are also
difficult to trace by questioning the members of the system.

When we set up a constellation, verbal communication is
restricted to a minimum. The facilitator will interview the
person with the issue or question and discretely guides the
person to (intuitively) choose the representatives.

The experience of the participant

People tend to initially experience the constellation method as
something ‘magical’. A participant tends to get drawn to a
position that gives the feeling of balance and harmony. Being in
harmony means that by “recognizing what is” you eventually
experience a peaceful concentrated state of being. From this
state of consciousness you experience inner peace. You are
connected and at a distance at the same time.

While being in that state, when asked how your feel, intuitively
you are able to reflect the feelings and thoughts that describes
the part that you represent in the actual system.

Sometimes, very accurate and with quite astonishing preciseness,
wordings will emerge and contribute to the solution focussed
resolutions for the person whose issue has been constellated.

Relationship Constellations

It is not only those belonging to an organisation who
participates in the success or failure; others also play a role
- for example, the customer, the share holder, the users, the
competitors and perhaps foreign affiliates. Like a network, all
those elements are interrelated, they form relationships, they
create a powerful whole that is more than the sum of its parts.

Regardless of your position in your system, the application of
relational principles can give you insight into problems, help
you in making critical decisions and open new perspectives for
the development of the system as a whole.

Using Relationship Constellations, you can tap into the
informing field of your business. You can select what you need
from this network that receives all relevant information about
the web of relationships within and outside the company.

During the 1870’s, two well known inventors both independently
designed devices that could transmit sound along electrical
cables. Those inventors were Alexander Graham Bell and Elisha
Gray. Both devices were registered at the patent office within
hours of each other. There followed a bitter legal battle over
the invention of the telephone, which Bell subsequently won.

The telegraph and telephone are very similar in concept, and it
was through Bell’s attempts to improve the telegraph that he
found success with the telephone.

The telegraph had been a highly successful communication system
for about 30 years before Bell began experimenting. The main
problem with the telegraph was that it used Morse code, and was
limited to sending and receiving one message at a time. Bell had
a good understanding about the nature of sound and music. This
enabled him to perceive the possibility of transmitting more
than one message along the same wire at one time. Bell’s idea
was not new, others before him had envisaged a multiple
telegraph. Bell offered his own solution, the “Harmonic
Telegraph”. This was based on the principal that musical notes
could be sent simultaneously down the same wire, if those notes
differed in pitch.

By the latter part of 1874 Bell’s experiment had progressed
enough for him to inform close family members about the
possibility of a multiple telegraph. Bell’s future father in
law, attorney Gardiner Green Hubbard saw the opportunity to
break the monopoly exerted by the Western Union Telegraph
Company. He gave Bell the financial backing required for him to
carry on his work developing the multiple telegraph. However
Bell failed to mention that he and his accomplice, another
brilliant young electrician Thomas Watson, were developing an
idea which occurred to him during the summer. This idea was to
create a device that could transmit the human voice electrically.

Bell and Watson continued to work on the harmonic telegraph at
the insistence of Hubbard and a few other financial backers.
During March 1875 Bell met with a man called Joseph Henry
without the knowledge of Hubbard. Joseph Henry was the respected
director of the Smithsonian Institution. He listened closely to
Bell’s ideas and offered words of encouragement. Both Bell and
Watson were spurred on by Henry’s opinions and continued their
work with even greater enthusiasm and determination. By June
1875 they realised their goal of creating a device that could
transmit speech electrically would soon be realised. Their
experiments had proven different tones would vary the strength
of an electric current in a wire.

Now all they had to do was build a device with a suitable
membrane capable of turning those tones into varying electronic
currents and a receiver to reproduce the variations and turn
them back into audible format at the other end. In early June,
Bell discovered that while working on his harmonic telegraph, he
could hear a sound over the wire. It was the sound of a twanging
clock spring. It was on March 10th 1876 that Bell was to finally
realise the success and communications potential of his new
device. The possibilities of being able to talk down an
electrical wire far outweighed those of a modified telegraph
system, which was essentially based on just dots and dashes.

According to Bell’s notebook entry for that date, he describes
his most successful experiment using his new piece of equipment,
the telephone. Bell spoke to his assistant Watson, who was in
the next room, through the instrument and said “Mr Watson, come
here, I want to speak to you”.

Alexander Graham Bell was born on 3rd March 1847 in Edinburgh,
Scotland. His family were leading authorities in elocution and
speech correction. He was groomed and educated to follow a
career in the same speciality. By the age of just 29 in 1876 he
had invented and patented the telephone. His thorough knowledge
of sound and acoustics helped immensely during the development
of his telephone, and gave him the edge over others working on
similar projects at that time. Bell was an intellectual of
quality rarely found since his death. He was a man always
striving for success and searching for new ideas to nurture and
develop.

The telephone – important dates

1. 1874 – Principal of the telephone was uncovered.

2. 1876 – Alexander Graham Bell invents the telephone, beating
Elisha Gray by a matter of hours.

3. 1877 – The very first permanent outdoor telephone wire was
completed. It stretched a distance of just three miles. This was
closely followed in the U.S. by the worlds first commercial
telephone service.

4. 1878 – The workable exchange was developed, which enabled
calls to be switched between subscribers rather than having
direct lines.

5. 1879 – Subscribers began to be designated by numbers and not
their names.

6. 1880’s – Long distance service expanded throughout this
period using metallic circuits.

7. 1888 – Common battery system developed by Hammond V. Hayes,
allows one central battery to power all telephones on an
exchange, rather than relying on each units own battery.

8. 1891 – First automatic dialling system invented by a Kansas
City undertaker. He believed that crooked operators were sending
his potential customers elsewhere. It was his aim to get rid of
the operators altogether.

9. 1900 – First coin operated telephone installed in Hartford,
Connecticut.

10. 1904 – “French Phone” developed by the Bell Company. This
had the transmitter and receiver in a simple handset.

11. 1911 – American Telephone and Telegraph (AT & T) acquire the
Western Union Telegraph Company in a hostile takeover. They
purchased stocks in the company covertly and the two eventually
merged.

12. 1918 – It was estimated that approximately ten million Bell
system telephones were in service throughout the U.S.

13. 1921 – The switching of large numbers of calls was made
possible through the use of phantom circuits. This allowed three
conversations to take place on two pairs of wires.

14. 1927 – First transatlantic service from New York to London
became operational. The signal was transmitted by radio waves.

15. 1936 – Research into electronic telephone exchanges began
and was eventually perfected in the 1960’s with the electronic
switching system (SES).

16. 1946 – Worlds first commercial mobile phone service put into
operation. It could link moving vehicles to a telephone network
via radio waves.

17. 1947 – Microwave radio technology used for the first time
for long distance phone calls.

18. 1947 – The transistor was invented at Bell laboratories.

19. 1955 – Saw the beginning of the laying of transatlantic
telephone cables.

20. 1962 – The worlds first international communications
satellite, Telstar was launched.

21. 1980’s – The development of fibre optic cables during this
decade, offered the potential to carry much larger volumes of
calls than satellite or microwaves.

22. 1980’s, 1990’s, to present – Huge advances in micro
electronic technology over the last two decades have enabled the
development of cellular (mobile) phones to advance at a truly
astonishing rate. A cellular (mobile) phone has its own central
transmitter allowing it to receive seamless transmissions as it
enters and exits a cell.

Some people believe the impact of the telephone has had on our
lives is negative. Whatever your beliefs, it is un-doubtable
that the invention and development of the telephone has had a
massive impact on the way we live our lives and go about our
every day business.

One of the most talked about communications tools of today, VoIP
(Voice Over Internet Protocol) makes it possible for you to make
a call from anyplace so long as you have a broadband connection,
making it well-suited for traveling.

Teleconference VoIP software can make a teleconference more
productive and run more smoothly, as the software has features
that will provide teleconference participants with more
flexibility and interactivity. VoIP web conferencing may also be
among the features provided by a typical VoIP software vendor.

Learning More About What VoIP Can Bring To Your Company

Most traditional phone companies charge extra for additional
features. However, these features usually come with the VoIP
software. VoIP software features include caller ID, call
waiting, and call transfer. The VoIP software also allows for
repeat dialing, return call, and three-way dialing. For
conferencing, you might need separate conferencing software, but
there are many available teleconferencing VoIP software
solutions available, some of them also offering web VoIP
conferencing.

Some VoIP service providers provide advanced call filtering
features that allow you to decide how to handle your outgoing
calls based on the caller ID. These software features include
forwarding the call to a different number or a voice mail.
Software features also allow you to give the caller a busy
signal or play a “not-in-service” message.

In addition, some VoIP service providers allow you to check your
voice mail over the internet or attach messages to e-mail sent
to your computer or PDA. When signing up for a VoIP service
account, be sure to check out the VoIP features included in the
package and how much the VoIP service costs.

Among the cost-saving benefits that come with VoIP technology is
the ease of maintenance, as only one network has to be
maintained instead of two. The portability of the phone system
is simplified, and VoIP system configuration can be performed
using a web interface.

With a VoIP system, multiple offices in different locations can
share many VoIP features, such as one single receptionist, auto
attendant facilities, and voice mail system.

A two-way radio is a device which transmits and receives voice signals through the air. They work somewhat like a telephone, but since they do not require a central network they can be used anywhere! With two way radios, two or more people can have a discussion no matter where they are — sometimes while they are miles apart! Another common name for a two-way radio is a “walkie talkie”.

The most common type of two-way radio for regular consumers is the FRS/GMRS two-way radio. These are the radios that you typically see in the big-box stores. FRS and GMRS are the different frequency ranges, or channels, that these radios can operate on. The FRS channels are 8 though 14 and the GMRS channels are 15-22. Channels 1 through 7 are shared, and are used by both the FRS and GMRS systems.

All radios in your group will need to be set to the same channel before you can communicate. For example, if your radio is set to channel 7 it will send your voice over that channel when you talk, and it will listen for and allow you to hear other people talking on channel 7. It is always important to remember that these channels are public! Always be careful what you say over a two way radio, because you can never be sure who is listening.

When choosing a channel, privacy and range should be your primary concerns. If you are using a FRS only channel, because of government regulations your radio will only broadcast at a maximum of .5 watts of power. This wattage will typically get you between half a mile, and one mile of range. If using a GMRS channel, you can get the maximum output power and range out of your two-way radio. However, if you are using a GMRS channel, you are required by the FCC to purchase a license to operate on those frequencies.

As far as privacy goes, if you choose a channel and notice that there are others using the same channel, you should switch to a different channel to avoid confusion. Sometimes, such as at a crowed amusement park, 22 channels just aren’t enough to provide privacy. Because of this, most mid range radios and up also provide “Privacy Codes,” which break up a single channel into anywhere between 38 and 121 sub-channels. When you figure in the privacy codes, many radios offer over 1000 individual channels for you to choose from.

Some two-way radios operate on AA or AAA batteries. You will also find that many of the radios come with rechargeable battery packs and desktop chargers. If you buy a model with a rechargeable battery pack, you will get the convenience of the rechargeable batteries and plus, you will still be able to operate them with regular batteries if your battery packs happen to drain before you get them back to their chargers.

There are many good uses for a two-way radio, but they can come in especially handy on family vacations or outings. Have you ever taken a trip to an amusement park or a ski trip and somehow got separated from your friends or family? A two-way radio would have been very helpful to locate one another. How about taking more than one car on a road trip? A two-way radio would be a great means of communication between vehicles.

Another popular sport in which two-way radios can play a big part is hunting. Hunters are always in need of some sort of communications device to keep in contact with one another throughout the woods. The avid hunter can now even find two-way radios in camouflage color!

The major brands of two-way radios include Motorola, Cobra, Midland, Kenwood and Uniden. You can find radios from these manufacturers in all different ranges of output power and distance. There are all different types of features out there you can get with your two-way radios as well. Many two-way radios even support the NOAA weather channels. There are also lots of accessories you can find for your two-way radios including headsets, handheld speakers, earbud receivers, and throat mics. A lot of these you can even operate hands-free as long as they, and the radios, are VOX capable. You can now even buy car chargers for your two-way radios!

It is no doubt that two-way radios have come along way over the years. Most people have found them impossible to live without, just like cell phones! From starting out at a maximum range of about 2-5 miles, you can now find them with maximum ranges of up to 14 miles! Next time you are on the go with friends or family, make sure you’re prepared and take a two-way radio along. They may just prove to be pretty handy.

A conversation between two people can be like a tennis game. The
back-and-forth conversation is like two players hitting the ball
over the net. Someone serves up a new idea from time to time.

How’s your conversational tennis? Do you have problems when it’s
your turn to serve the ball? An easy way to serve up the next
idea is to ask questions to keep a conversation going.

Say you are starting a new match with someone you’ve never
played with before. You might want to start with a compliment.
Remember to make it genuine.

After the compliment, you can ask a question: 1. Your jacket
(blouse, tie, shirt) looks great on you. Did you buy it at
JacketsRUs? This is a great serve! Now, the ball will be in
their side of the court and hopefully a nice rally will ensue.

Supposing, you’ve decided to try out the new tennis courts. You
spot someone who looks like they belong.

Try serving up a conversation starter that shows that you’ve
noticed how well they fit in: 2. What tips would you give
someone who’s never played on these courts before?

Let’s say, it’s already been established that you both like to
play tennis. In other words, you sense that you have some things
in common. You’ve seen this other player around and now you just
want to know more about them.

You can now ask more specific questions to keep the conversation
going, like:

3. What do you like most about tennis?

People love to talk about themselves. Showing an interest in
others is a sure way to get a good rally going, especially if
it’s done in a sincere, positive way:

4. Do you have a favorite tennis ball brand?

While you begin conversing over the different brands of tennis
balls and maybe even the color choices, you’ll soon realize that
you’ve got another good rally going.

Asking questions to keep a conversation going is a great way to
show that you are genuinely interested in what the other person
has to say.

Comparing conversation to a tennis game may seem silly, but
think of two friends playing a game of tennis together, just for
fun. They wouldn’t slam Wimbledon-type serves at each other and
try to catch each other off guard with wicked backhand shots.

Instead, they’d be gently lobbing the ball right to each other,
so they could enjoy a good fun rally.

So, next time you feel a bit nervous at the thought of starting
up a conversation with a new person, think of it as a game.
After all, games are made for fun!

So you say you want a brochure? Or an ad? Or a radio spot? Okay, but…have you filled out your “Creative Strategy Form” first?

Welcome to another edition of Not Your Usual Marketing Tips from JDK Marketing Communications Management.

It’s not just a matter of looking at a blank piece of paper - or screen - and saying to yourself, okay, I want a new brochure and here’s how it will look: I’ll put a picture here, put the logo there, and just write down whatever comes into my head and place it all on the inside…

So you say you want a brochure? Or an ad? Or a radio spot? Okay, but…have you filled out your “Creative Strategy Form” first?

Welcome to another edition of Not Your Usual Marketing Tips from JDK Marketing Communications Management.

It’s not just a matter of looking at a blank piece of paper - or screen - and saying to yourself, okay, I want a new brochure and here’s how it will look: I’ll put a picture here, put the logo there, and just write down whatever comes into my head and place it all on the inside…

Not that that may not have a chance to succeed vis-à-vis what your competitors have floating out there in the marketplace. But the better chance is when initial thought and discipline goes into the recipe, you’ll be cooking up something far more flavorful and nutritional…if nutrition be a metaphor here for substance and a meaningful message.

Here’s what I prescribe to my clients before we embark on the vehicle itself - whether it’s a brochure, ad, radio/TV spot, billboard, even to an extent a logo design. They need to fill out a single sheet of paper, a questionnaire I call the “Creative Strategy Form.”

Here’s what it asks:

1. How would you describe your product/service?
2. What/who is your target audience?
3. What are your business’s (cosmetic) features - are you bigger, smaller, prettier, older, younger, in the city, in the suburbs, etc.?
4. What are the benefits to your clients (as opposed to “features,” what are the elements to your product/service that can actually help them)?
5. Who is your competition?
6. What do they have that you don’t?
7. What do YOU have that THEY don’t?
8. Do you have a “call to action,” such as a coupon, a giveaway, a website?
9. Do you have samples of marketing materials done by your competitors - or even in another industry - that you like, or particularly impresses
   you?
10. If your audience could derive one main, focused (important word!) thought out of this piece, what would it be?

And there you have it. If you can answer these questions…or even if you can’t, and it prompts you to think further about how to “explain” your business…you’ll be that much more ahead of the game when it comes to developing your message, your theme, even your artwork that puts a graphic “face” on the materials.

And it certainly takes the guessing game out of how to fill that blank piece of paper, or screen.

As to how yours truly has helped clients recently “fill in the blanks,” you’re welcome to check out my website (www.jdkmarketing.biz), go to the Portfolio link, and note what was done just recently for the Matthews Family Chiropractic clinic, and the Larry Hale Insurance Agency.

We all have weaknesses. Whatever our roles.

In management positions, one of the bigger challenges is to
recognise our own shortcomings and alter our own behaviours.
Sometimes this can be very challenging.

Often a hint is that there are areas of your work where you feel
like you really struggle, or are things you avoid. Or are things
that you don’t enjoy doing. So you do other things that you do
like and leave gaps. Spaces in your attention that are
important, but get missed.

You are not alone, your gaps are natural, because no-one is
perfect, not even those at the very top of their game.

You see, the very best executives realise that they aren’t
completely rounded. The ones who have wonderful strategic
visions may not be the best with the purse strings. The ones who
have a very focused view of the operational standards of their
business, may well not see the possibilities.

The business world is littered with big-time bosses that missed
a trick or two. You may have worked with one or two!

The best ones realise this and take action. Even though it might
mean getting over that truly biggest hurdle for top bosses,
their ego, the best are able to get the point that they aren’t
perfect and they need help, for the greater good.

So they surround themselves with others who have the skills they
lack. A great visionary may have an expert with tight financing.
The detail guy may have someone who is a whiz at thinking off
the wall and with wow ideas.

It’s a blend that the very best bosses understand and let go of.
They give up control in the areas where they are not as strong.

If you have weaknesses, accept it - it’s natural and where those
are, look for people in your team who have those skills. Nurture
them and let them have a free rein to manage that part of your
business where you can’t - not effectively anyway.

And get on doing your stuff really, really well, without the
worry about those bits that you are less comfortable with.

No matter what we shop for on the Internet we’re always looking for the best bargain. For those of us that are shopping for an Internet Fax provider there is no difference we want the best for the least, maybe even free Internet Fax services? Realistically the old rule holds true that we get what we pay for, so if something is free you can imagine how good the service is, and of course there would be a lot of limitations. Most consumers when looking for a free Internet Fax service will find that the pay services are worth considering for such a low monthly cost.

There are a couple of free Internet fax service providers. However shoppers must remember that any provider that has a free service likely also offers a monthly subscription based Internet fax service. This means that the amount of faxes you can send or receive varies a lot compared to the subscription services. For example, with one provider the free Internet fax service supplied are permitted to only receive faxes. Also numerous conditions accompany the free Internet service such as: ability to send only 20 free Internet faxes per month.

Of course on the other end of the spectrum the pay service allows subscribers to send and receive faxes any time of day, along with a lot less terms and conditions. Some subscription services will offer a set number of free faxes per month incoming or outgoing, but you are still entitled to all the other benefits of paid subscription.
