The Selling Quote
“Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds you plant.”
–Robert Louis Stevenson, novelist, essayist, and poet (1850-1894)
For Salespeople
The year is almost over. I hope you have clearly exceeded your sales goals. If not, Robert Louis Stevenson provides an excellent strategy on what you can focus on these next few weeks. Start planting seeds. Start prospecting now.
Who can you call now to discuss your interest in working with them next year? You might share a success that you had with another customer that might interest them next year.
What relevant piece of information could help other prospects with their business? Be thoughtful and creative now. These are the seeds that you can plant now that can sprout next year so your 2015 is a resounding success.
