Jeff Wolfe Battling the Monsters.

As I write this post, it is Halloween morning. While the weather is definitely nasty outside, both of my children are filled with a sense of excitement as they think about wearing their costumes tonight. My son is dressing up as Darth Vadar and my daughter is dressing up as me. This should be interesting… As Halloween approaches, many of us dig back into movie collections to watch some of the scary classics. There are typically some predictable elements to these movies – we can tell when the mo… Continue

How the Stimulus Plan Will Work Three contractors are bidding to fix a broken fence at the White House. One is from Chicago, another is from Tennessee, and the third is from Minnesota. All three go with a White House official to examine the fence.The Minnesota contractor takes out a tape measure and does some measuring, then works some figures with a pencil.

Harvey Melton, Sr. find those forgotten friends

Reach Out and Touch Someone, Even Years Later! We meet so many people over the course of our lifetime, and forge so many varied relationships with them, that when we try to recall even a fraction of the faces and names we've learned, we fail. But all of us have a special catalogue deep in our memories, set aside for that special list of truly close friends that we will never forget. These people resonate with us nearly as strongly years after we last laid eyes on them as they did when we were… Continue

Harvey Melton, Sr. an old prospecter

An old prospector…… An old prospector shuffled into town leading an old tired mule. The old man headed straight for the only saloon in town to clear his parched throat. He walked up to the saloon and tied his old mule to the hitch rail. As he stood there brushing some of the dust from his face and clothes, a young gunslinger stepped out of the saloon with a gun in one hand and a bottle of whiskey in the other. The young gunslinger looked at the old man and laughed, saying, 'Hey old man, have y… Continue

Melanie Morris Maximize Your Connectivity

Some people are just connectable. I happen to be one of them. I like meeting people; I like helping people and I’m not afraid to ask others for help. There’s not room for a big ego when it comes to sales success. The easiest way to smooth an introduction to a prospective client is through a mutual connection. If you are lucky enough to find you have a connection to someone you need to call, ask for an introduction. Yesterday I asked for such a favor, and the recipient of my request sent a very… Continue

Melanie Morris What does Father's Day have to do with Sales Success?

I’m a firm believer that in order to serve, you have to have a full cup. The best sellers see themselves as servers and seek to meet the needs of others. It’s far harder to do this if your own needs are not met first. In Outliers, Malcom Gladwell discusses the environmental factors in success. Among them is the foundation provided by great parents and if you are among the lucky to have come from great parents, be sure to take the time to honor them and be grateful. You have some time to prepar… Continue

Melanie Morris Impregnable Sales Confidence

“If I don’t have it, you don’t want it.” This was spoken by a fellow attendee at the eWomen’s Network meeting today. Isn’t that terrific to be so sure of your product offering to say, if I don’t have it, you don’t want it. Man that’s powerful. There are a lot of ways to respond to a customer that says they want a lower price, a different grade, or somehow they seek something that you know to be inferior to what you provide. You have a choice. You can match price, but that’s no sign of customer… Continue
