Recognizing The Talents in Our Own Midst model. So (when most of us would settle in to retirement) he travelled around the country by car (in his white suit) and cold called prospects with his proposition. The next remarkable factor was the amount of times that he was refused before he signed his first client. He received ONE THOUSAND AAccording to experts in the field of hiring and training development, there is a great potential within our own companies for talented individuals.Why are we not recognizing those already in our midst? An explanation is: when people are working at lower levels than their management abilities, we can’t see what they can really do.And in this day and age, we have a lot of people laid off from downsized companies who have to take l Why Marketing Begins After The Sale One of my favourite all time quotes is from Henry Ford. He once said ‘Whether you think you can, or whether you think you can't: you're always right'. Just take a moment to think about that in your life and your business.All business begins and ends with the customer. The company with the most customers wins, which is why successful companies know that the real marketing begins after the initial sale has been made. They know doing everything possible to retain the trust and the business of current customers is the essence of marketing.People like to do business with companies that: truly value them as customers; know them by name and buying preference; We are all born with an incredibly powerful bio computer (our brain) that really does give us all unlimited potential. So why is it that certain people are far more wealthy and ‘successful' in life and in business than others? Why do some people work excessively hard and never seem to get anywhere whilst others just seem to be complete and utter money and success magnets!? Are they more intelligent? Did they go to better schools? Did they have a better start in life? Wealthy parents perhaps? There has been an immense amount of research carried out on the habits and traits of some of the most successful people in history. Let's take Colonel Sanders (KFC) as an example. There are a couple of remarkable things about this particular entrepreneurial success story. The first one being he ended up penniless at the age of 65, collecting a social security cheque for $105. He did, however, have a chicken recipe and an idea to sell this recipe under license as a franchised model. So (when most of us would settle in to retirement) he travelled around the country by car (in his white suit) and cold called prospects with his proposition.

He was turned down THREE HUNDRED AND TWO times before he was finally given a yes. So now consider a salesman that I was training to cold call who, after the third call one morning, just looked at me and refused to do any more as he felt so rejected by the third ‘no'. To help overcome his fears he was coached through a cold call sales process that would work for him. Also he realised through this coaching that his own hesitation would prevent him from achieving his sales dream. I am pleased to say that years later he is now heading an extremely successful sales team himself. So how many people do you think would have gone through 1009 no's to get a yes? How many ‘no's' and knock backs will it take for you to hesitate...and wait...and wait in your business? One of the definitive answers to the question "what is one of the single most definitive th
