Peter Wink hanging with Mr. Fire himself...Dr. Joe Vitale!

Hi Everyone,

I've been incredibly busy lately, working, writing books, hitting the firing range, developing an armwrestling promotion, and hanging out with some tremendous people.

Over the past week, I've had the pleasure of hanging out with two of the most incredible people. Dr. Joe Vitale, a good friend, and the world's best-selling business/spiritual author --- and his lovely companion, whom I just met, video guru Nerissa "The Video Queen" Oden.



Joe "Mr. Fire" Vitale happened to be in town recording a new program for the legendary Nightingale-Conant Corporation. The program is going to be incredible and I wish I could talk more about it. Let's just say, if you loved "The Secret," you'll go absolutely crazy over this new program. For now, check out his best-selling book called "The Attractor Factor."

Me, Joe, Stephanie, and Nerissa discussed marketing, movies, self-help, spirituality, and a host of other topics. Nerissa even taped two straight hours of me and Joe discussing marketing strategies and life in general. Some of this footage is deep! Some of the footage will be available either at Peterwink.com and/or MrFire.com. And let me tell you - nobody knows video like Nerissa Oden. She's a genious having worked on a plethora of Hollywood's biggest movies including Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls. The four of us also took the time to have some awesome dinners and shop on the magnificent mile! It doesnt get much better than that!

If you have any interest in self-help, marketing, video, or spirituality, I urge you to visit their websites listed above! They are great people - or as I like to put it - "the real deal."

Other highlights of this magical week included seeing a Steve Vai concert with my great friend - e-commerce guru, Claudio Boyks. Having dinner with two of the classiest people I know - Barton Blankenburg and his killer gal Susan! Having the pleasure of firing with my wife and the Midwest's number one firearms trainer Gerald Kau. And I cannot forget having a "Joe Vitale" author dinner the other night with Gary Chappell, CEO/President of Nightingale-Conant, as well as Vic Conant, Chairman of Nightingale-Conant - both old friends!

I've barely slept, exercised six times, and worked my tail off. Tonight - I will rest. In fact, I'm going to relax now and go through a stack of magazines piled up next to me. With 15 subscriptions, it's hard to keep up!

Until next time...
Peter

You can't sell what you have not bought!

Hi Everyone,

I was reading a terrific passage in Dan Kennedy's new book "No B.S. Business Success."



According to Dan, you cannot expect to craft an excellent sales pitch unless you can enthusiastically answer the following three questions...
1. If you were the customer, would buying from you be the clear, inarguably best choice?
2. Why should I do business with you instead of any of your competitors? In fact, why should I do business with you vs. any and every other option available to me (unique selling proposition)?
3. Is your product or service a lot better than anything else out there? How?


Most salespeople cannot intelligently answer these questions.

If you cannot answer these questions, you're probably not completely sold on the superiority of what you're selling, and if you're not sold, you can't sell.

Make sense?

Until next time...
Peter

Killer fashion tips for men!

Hi Everyone,

If you know me - you know I'm into men's fashion. After all, I realize that the fashions I wear communicate a lot about me.

Here are some dos and donts from my experience...
- Jeans...NAH!
- Suits look better than sport coats!
- Carry little in your pockets!
- Furs...NAH!
- Cowboy hats and large belt buckles are not in vogue anywhere but in Texas!
- Smoking a cigarette or cigar in this day and age, ruins your image!
- Crocodile and snakeskin is best left to rock stars!
- Silver, chrome, and stainless steel watchbands go with everything!
- Facial hair...NAH!
- T-shirts with cute/sexual sayings...give me a break!
- Clean fingernails great...manicures w/polish a little too feminine!
- Gym fashions are wasteful!
- Mint mouthwash...YES!
- Bike tights...BIG NAH!
- Suits and gym shoes do not look good unless your under 11!
- Suspenders are for overweight people only!
- Patterned shirts and ties don't go together!
- Wear excellent shoes!
- Casual Fridays are embarassing!

More to come!

Until next time...
Peter
