    We were in Tucson, Arizona staying with friends. We talked about their community pool the night before. Early morning I grabbed a water bottle, cell phone, and hat and walked out the door in a t-shirt and swim trunks. I calculated that a 15 minute walk to the pool would be a refreshing morning adventure. The sandals I wore were the same ones that took me on a long hike in Hawaii a few years ago. Deciding a map of the community wasn't needed, I started my trek. Soon, everything started to look the same and I was lost. My feet grew tired of the journey and the pool that should have been there, must have moved. As the sun rose, the heat began to take its toll on my ill prepared feet and the fun journey became a blistering challenge.

    I never reached the pool and realized that one right turn sealed my fate of walking in a big circle. Ultimately, the 15 minute walk became a 2 hour hike that blistered my feet.

    Prepare For Any Length Journey I should have prepared for a long walk just as salespeople should prepare for longer sales cycles with a plan of action. Most salespeople are only prepared for quick sales opportunities. Prospects that aren't ready to purchase right now are lost without a follow-up plan. When a business has a sales action plan for a longer sales cycle, more sales will be won.

    I hope you learn from my blister and map out success in selling with the right gear and prepare for anything that comes your way.
