I love the word Bazaar. It carries the legendary power of transcendence .
It evokes the origins of commerce, when people gathered on the streets to exchange crafts and goods they made with their hands. In a symphony of colors. Diverse colors brought and made by diverse people coming from afar. Wikipedia defines it like this: “A bazaar (Persian: ?????) is a permanent merchandising area, marketplace, or street of shops where goods and services are exchanged or sold.
The word derives from the Persian word bazaar, the etymology of which goes back to the Pahlavi word baha-char (??????) meaning “the place of prices.”
When faced with the reality that I had to sell products and services while I developed my own, I realized that I was confronted with a great opportunity… the opportunity to sell products and services that I am passionate about. The products and services I learned to be passionate about, because of the abundant value they gave me. Business people who walked with me, sharing generously their experience with the passion of their learned lessons. Sharing the real keywords of their success. The proven fact. Throughout 1 year. That’s consistency.
It’s going to be a pleasure to spread the word around from afar about their crafts and goods. And exchange their products and services here, at Soul Bazaar.
I also realized that the marketing strategy I was going to use was the stories around the products and services.
So , wait for the stories. They will come with the products and services as a string of valued information .
I suspect though, that I will start articulating my own sooner than I expected.
In the meantime, check out some insightful videos… Napoleon Hill and Seth Godin in community/videos
SALES, A NECESSARY EVIL
We all have one way or another a relationship with sales. On both ends of sales, as consumers and providers. I did sales all my life. It was a good way to make a living at the time if you had not graduated from college. When I was not selling somebody else’s product I had my own business.
There was an awkward vague feeling of cheating, bugging me throughout the transactions I did over the years. Especially when the product I was selling was something I would not have bought. Yeah, they say you have to love your product and they are right. The productivity of love… I had to make a living.
On the other hand I loved connecting with people. Soul to soul. Human to human. It’s been my secret addiction. (Not so secret). There was an implicit code in the business world that the human connection didn’t belong with them for some reason. Somehow, you had to park your humanity with your car in the parking lot before entering the office. Weird. Like dissociated people would be more productive.
Compared to that, it was always fascinating to me to watch those mom and pap’s stores who count with senior satisfied employees who have a serious relationship with their clients and bosses. They have been doing it for 30 years. In their community. They seem pretty contented to me. Their clients and bosses too.
At some level, this unwritten agreement, prayed that human beings had to revere product and become robots. Robots coded with rapture and heaviness. Resisting their humanity to sustain the pretension it’s not there and the illusion that a robotized puppet can be more effective than an actual human being. Who in the world had that idea???
Ironically, humans are the consumers of those products and services! Are you going to tell me that for them to buy from us we have to pretend they are robots too? Not very appealing. Think about it… However, we are all somehow playing the same game. Deep down we hate it. Deep down we wish there was another way… there is another way…we can do our part.
It’s like they are on a contest. The more dehumanized, the more powerful. They walk around with the illusion of power in pursuit of a foggy far away reign completely foreign to their reality. So, when I indulged my junkie soul connection habit in the business world, even though sometimes it worked, I felt awkward and out of place. No wonder. I was out of place. I was not following the rules. I still managed to sell, though. It seemed like it was the only way of doing things. One way or the hard way. Becoming a robot representing a brand name was not my cup of tea and I saw a lot of room for fun, change and improvement in the business world.
One day about 3 years ago, I was having dinner at my house with 2 friends. We were conversing about change, investments and plans for the future. I’ll never forget it, we were having Alaskan snow crab legs, salad, bread, butter and wine.
Then I said: “I have to confess that this year I sold 1 million dollars and I only did it with a 10% of my focus and attention. I am dedicating the rest of the time in my head to this project of making myself happy with what I do and provide the value of my experience to other people, at a human level”. She said:” Can you imagine how much money you could make if you dedicated all your time to that 90% , given the fact that you sold a million with only a 10% focus and attention?”
When I was frustrated with the making of Soul Hang Out, I heard her voice. It helped put things in perspective.
The rest is history… Following the candle that shed light to my destiny, I was pleasantly surprised to find many people who were reinventing the wheel to a respectful, human, soulful way to do marketing, sales and business. Therefore naturally effective. Everybody wins. The buyer, the seller and the product.

Ari Galper, the Pioneer Visionary Sales Guru of the 21st C, who dared to bring truth and humanity to the sales equation." Luz is a precious gift to the world. She has single handedly changed hundreds of lives of our Unlock The Game Inner Circle members.
She has an effortless and natural ability to help people see the truth of why they are struggling and then provide a logical path to happiness, authenticity and success. If you get the chance to work with Luz (I know she has a long waiting list of clients), then grab it while you can!"
Suffice it to say, Luz, that you are on my “Top 10 List of Love & Power-filled Women Role Models”. You delightfully epitomize a woman who seamlessly blends ’spirituality’ with Divine power and fun humor…a far cry from the dour, pious saint of yester-century! A new breed of spiritual personification is permeating our present century, and she wears a huuuuuuuuge smile! Thanks so much for being one of her faces!
I especially want to single out Luz Aguirrebena. I’ve only spent a couple sessions with her on the mindset chat forums but can say that these two hours have been worth the price of the entire system. Her suggestions and serving cold caller coaching have adjusted my approach to one of a much more confident, calm, Luz is a true jewel: compassionate, direct, loving, and ever so knowledgeable
What was most exciting about our time together was that Luz is an acute listener and clearly articulates what can be difficult and nebulous ideas or theories in a way that I could understand and take away with me.
Anyone who senses that he or she has some kind of barrier or confusion around an issue would benefit from a session with Luz who quickly and painlessly escorts you through the Mystery in which you find yourself, shows you the highlights and helps you move on
Luz is a keen and perceptive coach, an honest partner and resilient manager. She is ably and ideally suited to focus her cohorts and clients on the important things in business, in a relationship, in life and in our hearts. She is valued and cherished by those around her as a person full of love, sympathy, concern and a practical nature that values simple, compassionate, common sense based solutions to the most intimate wrenching problems we face. I know this because she helped me through difficult and daunting times
That connection with life that one achieves conversing with you is a wonderful feeling!…time stops and one minute becomes an eternity…Difficult to express it in words…You have a gift to connect the other person with with his or her most profound being and revive situations that come back to clarify themes of the past and position them back in a more balanced and sane place in their lives.
My personal experience by your side has been very powerful and I believe you have given me many tools to work in my personal development!!!
From my earliest memories of Luzma’s guidance, to my most recent, she has always been confident in her insights, but equally confident in my ability to determine what I need. I’ve known Luzma as long as I’ve known myself because she has taught me how to learn and embrace who I am.
I could think of no better way for Luzma to spend her time than as a life coach. She has always provoked a natural exchange, often by those who are in need of support most but unlikely to share it with friends or family. By Luzma being so sure in her own skin, the apprehensive gravitate toward her and they too lose all inhibition—I’ve seen it! If given the opportunity to expand her coaching, she will help countless more people reach their potential.
I am very thankful for everything you did for me during my divorce. It was difficult and painful to accept. You taught me how to express my emotions without drama.
I’m in awe of her abilities and effect as a counselor or coach. When Luz articulates her insights about psychological or spiritual concepts that I’m already familiar with, she does it with such a lightness and a clarity that these concepts become new for me and, somewhat ironically, bring on a relieving stillness. Following her train of thought has often enabled the transformation in me that I was struggling for but could barely imagine. It’s very much like Dante describes the effect Beatrice has on him in The Paradiso. Without any emotional or intellectual struggle or physical sensation, by following Luz’s train of thought, my perception of the world and myself is suddenly . . . different. . . . and easier
I was thinking about you over the weekend and about how passionate you are about what you do. I truly believe that you are a success because you have taken your passion and made it your life
