Take A Vacation

Selling is a grind. As salespeople, we’re conditioned to keep hustling on weekends, days off and setting our OOO message to “will continue to have access to email” and providing our cell numbers for “emergencies.” Because the “what if I miss a deal” paranoia is very real. But what if you’re jeopardizing your best self...

The “S” Word

Recently I had a conversation with an Executive Director who approached me about speaking at their event. He had heard me speak somewhere else and thought I would be a great fit in educating his members – a diverse audience of association CEOs, hospitality salespeople, and meeting planners.

Educate, Entice, Expand – Part 1

A while back, the stars must’ve been aligned just right because I had two incredible, but rare encounters with two service providers that provided stellar service by asking the right questions, actively listening to my concerns, and confidently answering my questions.

Tell Yourself A Story

Operationalize Your Day

You’re here because you’re procrastinating. You saw the headline and thought this is the perfect distraction to further prevent you from checking things off your to do list because like most people, you just don’t know where to start.

Selling The Price Increase

I don’t have to tell you that the cost of everything is going up. I don’t have to but I’m going to do it anyway because as gas prices hit record highs and apples run about $6 a bag and homes continue to appraise for 2-3 times their worth you will eventually have to increase...

how to find the right business coach

How To Find The Right Coach

In my humble opinion, everyone should have a business coach. And ideally that coach would be me but, as I’ve mentioned before, finding the right coach is akin to dating. Personalities have to match, goals have to align and of course, it helps if you like the same football team or whatever it is that’s...
