Hang Pictures Easily Anywhere on the Wall

Why?

Every time you want to hand a picture you have to take into consideration all the other pictures already on the wall. It’s hard to move them because they are hanging in a fixed place on some hook. When you find a place for the new picture, it becomes even more difficult the next one.

How?

Have a layer beneath the wall’s final finished layer that has metal disks spread in a matrix all over the surface of the wall. Each time you want to hang a picture, stick a few strong magnets to the back of the frame and just let the magnets attach to the wall anywhere the underlying metal disks are. You can move the picture quickly any time to any new location without and trace of where it was (like a hook or a nail sticking out), or even rearrange all of the pictures on the wall if you feel like it.

Hand Filtered and Edited Daily Alerts

Why?

Alerts are an excellent tool to keep yourself informed on your market, and there are a few good services already, some even free like Google alerts. They are, however, inaccurate at best, and time-consuming at worst.

How?

Have your automatic alerts be curated by a personal assistance service. You have a session with your account assistant where you explain exactly what you are looking for in those alerts, and what should bot reach you. From that point on all your alerts will be filtered and edited by your assistant(s). You will get a daily (or even hourly) digest of all the alerts you need. You can even ask for them to synopsize long articles to help you get to the meat of things.

If They Don’t Buy Now Help Them to Buy in the Future

Why?

Most people who show interest in what you are selling won’t buy from you right now. Some of them, however, might in the future.

How?

When their behavior indicates they are not going to buy from you now, get them to commit to doing it in the future. They are more likely to think about such a future commitment in abstract terms such as “I should do this” (if they are convinced they should, because of their views about themselves), and would commit more quickly. When you ask them to commit now, they will approach it in a more practical way like “I can’t buy this now, I don’t have time for it.” This is especially true if they know that what you are selling is good for them but for some reason, it is difficult for them to do it (like eating healthy or exercising.)
