And four other questions I never seem to answer correctly.
Did you get my email?
Any one in particular?
Are you concerned my computer isn’t working?
Do you want to ask another? I think you mean two.
Hey Max, got a minute? [while knocking on an already open door]
Does it really matter? Just because its you, I got 5.
Did you hear back on that deal yet? [normally asked towards the end of the month]
Finally! I have been waiting for you to ask me before telling you.
Can I be perfectly honest with you?
Does this mean up until this point you were just making stuff up?
While you’re at it do me a favor and let me know if you decide to stop anytime soon.
Why break a habit?
Honorable Mention
[upon phoning someone, they pickup] I’m in a meeting right, can you call me back?
Me too, but its so boring, how’s yours so far?
As the rules of business change, thinking must change as well. For us sales professionals, I believe antiquated thinking will only lead to frustration, unhappy clients and a dwarfed income. The purpose of my blogs is to provoke a deeper level of thought about achievement in business and to challenge the comfort zone in order to provide a new level of selling and lifestyle.
