Tips #4 - #8

#4: Plan for the day...

Since you do not know on which day success will occur, you better be ready every day. Prepare with education. Take all of the available training. Read all the materials you received when you were appointed an educational consultant. View all the training videos, recorded calls, etc. as well as all the other resources on line available to you. Plan with goals and the details for their achievements. Are your plans and goals in front of your face every day? If not, why not?

#5: Have the answers your prospects and customers need...

The more you can solve problems, the easier path you will have to sales success. Prospects don't want facts. They want answers. In order to have those answers, you must have knowledge about what you do and explain it in terms of how the prospect uses what you do. How good are your answers?

#6: Recognize opportunity...

Stay alert for the situations that can create success opportunities. The little known key is to get and maintain a positive attitude. Attitude allows you to see the possibilities when opportunity strieks because it often shows up in the form of adversity. How well do you spot opportunity?

#7: Take advantage of opportunity...

First, recognize it. Often it shows up disguised in the form of adversity.
Second, act on it. Opportunity is elusive. It exists all over the place but very few can see it. Some people fear it because it involves change. Most don't believe they are capable of achievement. Do you seize opportunity?

#8: Take responsibility...

Get the job done yourself no matter what. Petty blame is rampant and the biggest waste of time. Do not blame others or yourself. Take responsibility for your actions and decisions. Blaming others is an easy thing to do but leads to a path of mediocrity. Successful people take responsibility for everything they do and everything that happens to them.
