Do sales happen as a natural consequence of a conversation between you and your prospect? Do you get closer and closer to the sale until the ‘close’ is inevitable and easy -and completely natural? Or, do you spend your time “visiting”with your prospect and then find yourself “following up” on a sale that never materializes? Can you even get in the clients door? Do you give up after 3 to 4 attempts?

HERE’S THE DEAL…

A lot of well intentioned business people who don’t think of themselves as sales people struggle with the basics. They are so afraid of being “pushy” that they assume a passive role in the selling process. Or, worse, they fall into the fatal trap of thinking that selling is all about talking about their product or service ad nauseum.

3. When you wake up in the morning complete the following statement, “My purpose is to __________ today.”

4. Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants, and eat less food that is manufactured in plants.

5. Drink green tea and plenty of water. Eat blueberries, wild Alaskan salmon, broccoli, almonds & walnuts.

6. Try to make at least three people smile each day.

7. Don’t waste your precious energy on gossip, energy vampires, issues of the past, negative thoughts or things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment.
