In this episode I will reveal a new application called Signals and how I have been using it to help close sales faster. Oh, did I mention that this tool is free?
Did you ever notice that there seems to be a never ending supply of internet tools for marketers but what about tools for salespeople? Well recently HubSpot answered that by launching a free tool called Signals.
Signals is not a CRM. CRM’s are designed for VP’s of Sales to track sales efforts. Signals is designed for Salespeople to make sales. You don’t even need a CRM to use Signals. It resides in your browser and email client. But It will also integrate with a CRM if you are using one.
I have been using Signals for several months now to assist in closing sales. I love Signals. It has become a permanent part of my sales tool kit.

Im excited about this episode of the Grow Your Business Podcast because it is one that will have a really big impact on your top line growth. In this short episode I am going to share with you a very powerful lesson about how to get traffic from Google and other search engines.
As a bonus we created a free SEO toolkit to help you on your way to generating more traffic for your business.
Search engine traffic is still the number one driving force behind business growth, even more than social media. In this episode I will help you understand how search engine optimization (aka SEO) has changed and what you should be doing.
I speak with dozens of business owners every week and almost all of them have a complete misconception of how search engines drive traffic to their websites. The real problem - is that this misconception is causing them to lose business and spend resources on the wrong solution. It all stems from an understanding of how search worked about eight years ago. For some reason most business owners seem to still hang on that. Well... it has changed quite a bit.
