Bring Disguised Opportunity to Light to Enjoy the Sunshine!
Last week, I received an email from the President of a large organization thanking me for being a long-time loyal customer. Today, I shared with “Alexa” that I immediately seized the moment to thank him for his acknowledgement. Next, I proceeded to tell him about an opportunity complementary to the service he already has in place which offers a great likelihood it will further grow his business.
Alexa’s response was profound as she relayed she used to do just that but has become complacent letting things slide. She further shared that most people are not even aware that these possibilities are opportunities in disguise.
As a seasoned sales professional, my mindset recognizes any communication presents an opportunity to respond. You just need to prioritize where your time should be spent.
Whether you are a job seeker wanting a desired interview or an entrepreneur seeking additional prospects, clients and sales, be fully aware of all that comes through to you albeit email, social media messages, phone, print, or video. Where you instantly see, hear or feel a connection, you must respond – your business depends upon it! When you do take the initiative to reply, you are catapulted into the leadership spot attracting further interest in you and what you have to offer.
Business development grows more quickly and easily when you are willing to take calculated risk with the attitude of “let’s see what happens”.
You make the opportunities come to you and then find enjoyment in the Smooth Sale!
