How is your golf game?
Chances are if you are a weekend warrior like most of us you spend most of your time on the golf course consumed with thoughts, frequent adjustments to your swing, and if things get bad enough maybe your share of spirits to ease the pain. Sales is a lot...
Do you have what it takes?
A friend, and fellow sales professional, sent this to me. I think this is worth sharing as we all search for the key ingredients that drive sales success. The Most Important Predictor of Sales Success by Philip Delves Broughton | 2:07 PM June 27, 2012 No...
Everyone loves a great story
If we know this is true, then why don't more of us tell stories instead of old fashioned selling? No one really wants another "sales pitch" but people are always hungry for a real life story about how others have used and experienced success. Now, it's not easy for...
The extra mile
I found this in a post today, superb! Everyone says they go the extra mile. Almost no one actually does. Most people who go there think, "Wait... no one else is here... why am I doing this?" and leave, never to return. That's why the extra mile is such a lonely place....

A false sense of security
We used to believe that if we did our job and were loyal we would have a job for life, part of the American Dream, right? Well, that dream is gone and it's now primal existence and if you aren't looking after your own future you may wake up surprised one day....
Competition
Yes, folks, unfortunately there are no monopolies here in the USA so only the best survive! We must continue to work and invest time in our "game" if we want to be great and succeed; otherwise there is a line a mile long of your competitors looking to replace you. ...

Ok, since I am on a leadership kick, here is something really good I stumbled upon. How great leaders inspire action: Think about your own lives, your best coaches, best bosses and ask yourself if they possessed the same qualities. Brick
Rajon!
Great sports teams and great businesses have .... Great Leaders!!! Brick
It’s hard to stay on top
Oh well, I am afraid the Celts may have peaked with their current roster and hence, the rebuilding of the dynasty will begin again. There is a cycle for every business just like a sports team so you have to stay ahead of the curve to offset the eventual decline....
