Your Intuition will help you meet your goals
Have you ever had a “feeling” or “thought” that an avenue for pursuing business or a job will be best put on hold for a while? This happened to me twice the past week. Each time it turned out to be a very good thing I paid attention. Accordingly, I encourage you to pay attention to your intuitive thoughts too.
Often we hear all decisions are a matter of mind over matter, but I don’t believe that’s true. Many times other sensory perceptions matter too. When you take the time to really listen to what’s being said, not said and avoided, you will hear more.
On interviews and in appointments, observation of facial expressions and body language when speaking with prospects and clients will provide you with many clues of how to present your information. Lastly, tone of voice and range in different areas of the subject matter will say a lot too.
My most recent example was of knowing I needed to call “Joan”. I couldn’t explain my inaction but for two weeks I put the call off. As a sales pro, this is very unlike me. And then, today, I noticed Joan clicked a particular link on my newsletter leading to the very information on which i wanted to approach her. The introduction was made for me automatically. I then picked up the phone to instantly be granted an appointment for us to meet.
The next time you feel blocked from doing what you want, consider why that might be. Hold off a little while to see if better timing may appear. However, if it doesn’t come in a reasonable time period, then pick up the phone and make it happen. Keeping in communication in a variety of styles and times are key to business development and reaching as many people as possible.
Just by keeping in touch, you deliver the marketing-communication message you are the leader with the expertise and people will want to hear what you have to say. This is how you attract more a larger clientele and more sales or the job you desire.
