Recognizing why You're sales are down and what You need to do

April 8, 2016

The worst mistake you can do is to panic, thinking that this sale slump will never come to an end. You start second guessing yourself, wondering what it is your not doing. The smartest thing you can do is take a deep breath, relax your mind. At this current time, the last thing your brain needs is additional pressure from you panicking.

Sometimes you need to back away from all the pressure, what I use to do was go to the gym and have a good hard workout, this cleared my mind. If you are not into working out then, do something entirely different that you enjoy doing. Do a crossword puzzle, anything to get your thoughts away from your sales slump. The more you think about your depression with sales, the problem will only compound without any results.

There is also an old remedy that works for many people it is called de-stressing with healthy foods. Eating certain foods will help you with the stress level you're having currently. Here are some of the examples of healthy foods you can add to your diet.

Keep in mind nothing lasts forever, your sales slump will come to an end sooner than you think. Allow your brain to relax, listen to some meditational music to help your mind come to a complete state of relaxation. It's a proven fact when the brain is exposed to certain music beats it can relieve a lot of useless pressure from your mind. One that I use for me to relax my thoughts fully is the Evening Meditation. 

How to revamp your thinking with a killer sales attitude that will change your current slump and close more sales. Think about baseball; they have a coach for almost every situation, from a bench coach to a pitching coach a first base coach, third base coach along with all the other coaches that the team employees. They correct small mistakes, which the player has no idea he is doing, his off his rhythm, they get him back on track.

What you need to do is review all of your latest sales you have made. Recall all the steps you took to make that sale; each transaction is different. Sit down, analyze each phase with each customer . this will allow you to see how you've made the sale and why you've done the deal. It works like magic, you reinforcing positive vibes that change your thinking and gets you understanding some the mistakes you might have made with the clients you did not close. Just like the baseball player who had it pointed out to him by his coach.

Then get back on track with some sales training, listen to some Zig Ziggler's sales training, to keep you focused, read some good books on sales, how to close more sales. They are countless of books that will help you, achieve more sales. But you need to study them, not just read them like a novel. Big difference explore the concepts that have been laid out for you.

If you apply these steps, you will drastically see results from the moment you meet your first client. You're better prepared; you have new found confidences in your abilities. You become an entirely different person. Hope these tips help you sell more than you ever did, but more importantly sales slump never last forever.

How to Gain Respect To Improve You're Communications Abilities

September 19, 2014

What is the bonding cement of all successful relationships be they personal, business or professional? "Respect" Once respect is gone the relationship is dead, it's like trying to hold a body without a skeletal framework. No amount of denial, fake laughter or words of "forgiveness" will heal or mend the wound. Unfortunately once respect is lost it's almost impossible to regain. Many people think they lose respect for someone because they get angry or upset with them, but anger does not mean the loss of respect. A relationship can bounce back from anger, disagreements, and even arguments, but if you detour into a loss of respect, it is usually over.

The best way I have found to deal with relationships that have gone into disrespect is simply to forgive and end them. To try and "Forgive" and continue with the relationship only causes the disrespect to continue and cause "emotional infection." Because we are human, we are going to do things that will cause people to lose respect for us, and people will do things that will cause us to lose respect for them. That is simply a part of life.

You never want to lose respect for anyone. However when it does occur in business you can live, survive and continue to thrive. But never allow yourself to lose respect for your spouse or family. Let love reign supreme so that no matter what occurs you never lose respect in that arena of your life.

If you have lost respect for something or someone forget it, bury it and move on to healing and restoration. Never underestimate the power of "Respect." It will build or destroy fortunes. Here is an interesting thing, many times losing respect for someone is due to our personal hang-ups and someone losing respect for us was the by-product of their problems.

The answer I have found is to do your very best in everything you do and that way no matter how the chips fall you can walk away with your head held high. If you do that, you can live and operate in peace when the element of "Respect" fly out the window.

If you Respect your financial future do yourself a favor and turn some of your paper money each week into good Gold Money. Nothing feels better than saving and having that Gold stuff in your bank. When you look at your Gold you will know that you own that money, the rest of the money you earned is gone to the creditors, stores, merchants and a host of other things that you gave your money too.
