Why do I need to quote the same person differently? Personal Coach
Why do I need to quote the same person differently? That’s what I asked the advisor I had hired to help me increase my business in India. Although I knew the culture was different, I didn’t know how to adjust my content.
It turns out just one adjustment in my content helped me improve my conversion success in less than a month. I will share that simple step with you in a minute.

Giggers, don’t let blind spots stop you. As The New Rich are effective Entrepreneurs, they’ve learned to overcome blind spots for experiencing optimal lifestyles.
Today we are aligning our Skill #7: Seeing Your Blind Spots with Gig Business Success Step-1: Use low cost digital marketing.
The 5 Steps so you can build your Gig business to the next level and experience your optimal income.
| Step-1: Use inexpensive digital marketing. | (Yes, for local small businesses, you can “set it and forget it” to get your BIG DATA too.) |
| Step-2: Know your CLAN and build them up. | (Get to KNOW THEM WELL.) |
| Step-3: Automate and outsource to streamline processes to reduce wasted activity and space. | (Think Disney or McDonald’s.) |
| Step-4: Scale your business globally. | (E.g. A local bakery can sell an online eBook with recipes and Ideas for Entertaining.) |
| Step-5: Enjoy your Gig business optimal freedom lifestyle. | (Your goal is a 4-Hour Work Week.) |
Let me ask you a question. When do you learn more, when you succeed or when you don’t succeed? Most everyone I have talked to tell me they learn more when they have not succeeded.
Cultural differences can be huge blind spots for even the most seasoned professionals. Adjusting to cultural differences in Non-Native English can be the difference between failure and your success.
That’s why it is so important to have a mentor or coach who has lived overseas and has experienced the ups and downs of new cultures. Those who have lived overseas have the real world experience of adjusting digital marketing for local cultures.
Now, back to the simple content marketing and PR adjustment I mentioned.
How do you quote experts in your culture? In the USA you can see experts like Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates being quoted to support an idea.
Have you noticed that most of the time you only see Mark or Bill. Very rarely you will see “Bill Gates, CEO of Microsoft.”
In India and China it is important to include the credentials or title. For example Jack Ma is quite well known in both cultures, and you will see him quoted as “Jack Ma, Executive Chairman of Alibaba.” It is important to include credentials in both India and China.
Also, a while back here in China I attended a presentation at a Hong Kong General Chamber of commerce event. In the slide deck the speaker showed images of several business experts including Tom Peters.
Although I knew Tom Peters earned his PhD, I had never seen him being quoted with his title. I’ve seen speakers who quoted Tom Peters in Paris, Geneva, London, and Las Angeles, but non included Tom Peters’ titles.
The best action to take is to travel to the culture where you want to get business with your digital marketing. Go out and live and experience the culture and the people. You never know, you may enjoy living in that new culture enough to stay.
One of the reasons I wanted to experience China was because Dale Carnegie traveled here. Dale talked about how much he learned in the months he lived here, so I wanted to try too.
One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. Dale Carnegie

Debrief: The point here is to get over your own “NO, I can’t,” response and develop yourself so you can have your business success and your optimal lifestyle.
If you are looking at this exercise and saying, “this feels awkward,” that is good. The important part is you will get used to it, as your life, family, and business depend on it.

Engagement background of Optimal Engagement Lifestyle
As a trainer and university lecturer in the USA, I had great success in my coaching, training, and classrooms by engaging my learners in ways I had learned from my Dale Carnegie Instructor Training. (optimal engagement)
After earning my Doctoral Degree researching engaging instruction in adult education and training and development, I started a training business in Hong Kong.
But something was wrong, I was struggling in this new culture (I’m a cattle rancher’s son from Colorado, USA) to find ways to inspire and motivate my coachees and students in Hong Kong.
With my coachees and in the classroom, I preferred having clients engage in learning activities instead of just talking. This is especially effective to keep clients engaged between coaching calls.
I struggled through trying several paper worksheets and workbooks to guide students, but I wasn’t getting the results I wanted. (junk engagement)
When the smart phone with the ability to search the internet came along, I could see my clients were curating (i.e. searching, finding, collecting, commenting, changing, remixing, and sharing.)
I thought, “Why not do that for learning?”, so I started asking them to answer questions, interact with information and colleagues, and go find examples of the learning content using their mobile devices.
eWorkbook development and success
I began searching for possibilities and I struggled testing several apps, until we created best practices using eWorkbooks, and after testing them, began to use eWorkbooks as my clients always had their devices with them.
Then we used eWorkbooks (Google Forms with the training slides as well as interactive questions, curating links and tasks, example images and videos, etc.) This became powerful for my coaching clients as they were able to share ideas and get the benefits of social learning even though they were not in the training course or classroom.
My clients [Engaging Screenagers] completed eWorkbooks using their mobile devices as they were learning interactively while, at the same time, they were developing habits of learning with their devices (optimal engagement) instead of killing time with them. (junk engagement)
Students used eWorkbooks to while I lead the discussion and guided them, and after they submitted their answers, they would get their responses sent to their inbox so they could review their learning Moments of Growth. (optimal engagement)
Because the students’ responses from eWorkbooks go right into a spreadsheet in real-time, as the teacher I can monitor what students are doing to give them guidance in the moment, as well as track their learning develop over time.
Since those early days, I’ve had great luck supporting my coaching clients and entrepreneur friends use Google forms for 360° reviews for evaluations as well as use eBrochures and eMenus to test new ideas and actively engage and actively interact with customers.
All client info has been scrubbed of identifying information unless they have given me specific, written permission to quote them.
