While this might sound backwards at first, the most successful sales teams are good at what they do because they firmly believe that the product or service that they're selling will add value to their customers' lives. They're not just out there pushing sales and checking off tick marks. If you're a Star Trek fan, you're very familiar with the term "prime directive" as it plays a critical role in the story. The prime directive is the guiding principle of the United Federation of Planets, and it prohibits Starfleet personnel from interfering with other cultures and civilizations. This is because the starship crew possesses a superior level of technology that other cultures and civilizations are not equipped to grasp or handle.
Ugh. Just the phrase "long-term contract" makes most businesses want to cringe, especially when it's associated with their marketing needs. However, despite this, you'll still find that a lot of marketing agencies do require a long-term retainer contract for their services.
As a busy entrepreneur that often wears multiple hats, some of the best advice that I can offer to others in my shoes is to establish a morning routine and start your day early.
For many, the thought of hearing an alarm go off earlier than normal sounds like a nightmare. If you're not a morning person, becoming one is no easy task. However, simply heading to bed earlier and gradually moving up your wakeup time will train your body to rise earlier. |
