📬 Friday, October 25, 2024

You made it, it’s Friday! 💥 How would you rank your 𝗦𝗔𝗟𝗘𝗦 outputs and activity for the week? Were you able to book meetings for next week? Were you able to send out any new proposals?

📎 Sales Tip(s) of The Week:

For any 𝗦𝗔𝗟𝗘𝗦 professional or business owner, I can all but guarantee that if you’re struggling, you simply need to increase your selling activities.

I have a business owner coaching client who has had a very good week with new 𝗦𝗔𝗟𝗘𝗦 activities and opportunities. What he’s experiencing is the tip of the proverbial iceberg poking through the top of the water. He’s feeling success, and it’s starting to show with increased requests for proposals and multiple opportunities at new business.

We talked about how the activity that he’s consistently started to adopt into his weekly routines is starting to pay off with outputs. He has a goal for a number of new meetings each week and a goal for getting at least one proposal out the door during that same week.

And when you start to zoom out and look at 2, 3, or 4 more months of 𝗦𝗔𝗟𝗘𝗦 activity like this, you’re going to start to experience some luck.

But,

Luck = Opportunity + Persistence

Not because you sat back and didn’t put in the activity (aka Work).

📊 Weekly Financial Forecast:

The Economy: No Recession Yet, But A Definite Slowing

A “soft-landing” for the economy has now become the view of most economists and forecasters. That’s because the aggregated data has continued to show expansion (the Atlanta Fed’s GDP estimate for Q3 (ended Sept 30) sits at a 3.4% Annual Rate). And the headline employment numbers and recent Retail Sales data confirm that view.

However, a look at the private sector tells a different story…Read more here. 👈🏼
