📎 Sales Tip(s) of The Week:

Relationship building is sales. Communications is sales. Prospecting is sales. Networking is sales. Follow up is sales. Gratitude is sales. Planning is sales. Winning is sales. Anxiety is sales. Closing is sales. Losing is sales. Doing is sales.

𝗦𝗔𝗟𝗘𝗦 is in every aspect of your life!

There isn’t a week that goes by without someone mentioning to me how ‘they’re not good at sales’ or “I don’t know what I’m doing” with sales.

The good news is anything on the list above means you’re already ‘doing.’ Remember, 𝗦𝗔𝗟𝗘𝗦 can be in every aspect of your life!

Like most skills, as activities become more natural, you’re able to see outcomes and next steps. Patterns develop. Outcomes transpire into something tangible. And soon you find yourself realizing most activities could be considered “sales activities.”

So pick and choose what you’re most comfortable with. You’re most likely better at 𝗦𝗔𝗟𝗘𝗦 than you think.

📊 Weekly Financial Forecast:

Did your 401k balance take a dip this week? 👀The Fed provided guidance on inflation and rate reductions for 2025 which wasn’t as rosy as previous forecasts. Hence your market and retirement account balance decreases.

Although the Fed lowered rates by 0.25% on Wednesday, they also signaled that the number of potential rate reductions in 2025 would decrease from 3 adjustments to 2, while signaling inflation will bottom out closer to 2.5%, not 2.0%.

The stock market isn’t where we should hang our hat on market opinions, so much so, that leaders at major banks aren’t worried about the 2025 outlook.

Like most things in life, the truth almost always lies somewhere in the middle. Decisions you’re making with your business for 2025 should remain confident and progressive yet conservative in review.
