Maintaining control of your business!
post by Sam Collins
This past weekend taught me a good lesson, as I watched for 24 hours as the snow fell and left its mark of 30 inches. I realized there are some things in life we have very little or no control and we just have to deal what is dealt to us.
So, what do we have control? Surprisingly, we do have control over much of our business success. We are in control of when we start and stop each work day. We have control of how many people we meet and speak with each day. We have control over keeping good records of our clients and reaching out to them daily. All these things are in our control and will make us more successful than imaginable.
So, what is holding us back from taking action over the things we have control. Yes, many of talk the talk, but very few actually walk the walk. The old saying, “you can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink” is ever so true. Then why is it many of us tend to lose control? Because I am not you, I can’t answer that question? Maybe you are one of the lucky few who do have the control, but in case you are not, here are a few suggestions you can use:
1. Start your day with a purpose
2. Have a plan who you are going to speak with
3. Speak to at least 3 old clients every day
4. Speak to at least 2 new clients every day
5. Mail something to at least 3 old clients every day
6. Mail something to at least 2 new clients every day
7. Meet one on one with another discipline at least twice a week
8. Put your old, new, and potential client list in some order
9. At the end of the week, see how close you came to the above 8
I did some quick math and computed if you followed the simple formula above you will have 552 touches a year, not including the “just happened to come to you” touches.
This is what I call CONTROL.
