Building Relationships

Social-media is not the cure all for business development. Building relationships is. Yes, you use all of the proponents of social-media to help find and create relationships. However, good relationships that build trust can give your products and services the best opportunity to be purchased.

The purchase pathway is first making people aware of your products. Then the potential consumer can consider the value or benefit that would motivate them to buy. Social-media helps promote the benefits and provides a platform for others to give their experience in using it. Once a consumer is convinced that they should buy your product, or something similar, they decide where the purchase should be made.

If you have done your job of building a personal relationship with them or someone they know, it is more likely they will be using your organization to consummate the purchase.

You can never build too many relationships. Prospecting and building should be a regular part of your activities. The more time you have for doing this, then the more likely your opportunities for prospects to convert to customers.

There is no such thing in this approach for having a slow day. A slow day just means you spend more time prospecting and building new relationships or strengthening old ones.

FEAR, Our Most Popular Emotion

It has been my experience to observe, in myself and others, that the greatest obstacle to success is fear. Most of the times we don't recognize it as fear as it usually is a little deeper, psychologically, than the surface emotion we recognize.

Make a list of some possibilities of your fears. I fear getting sick, not having sufficient funds, not being accepted by others, and the list goes on. What do you fear?

The antidote to fear is knowledge, learning more about your situation, and finding new options and possibilities. Discipline yourself to accept that you have to handle many of life events that are distressful or distasteful, or painful. However, our despair can make us strong and help develop our confidence and self esteem.

My challenge each day is to look for the good in all things and meet the tough tasks of the day with action. The greatest obstacle to development of human potential is the fear of leaving our comfort zone!.

Be comfortable with people just like you who are determined to succeed and get active in our Jim Click Business Preferred Network.

Managing For Success

Our executive vice president asked his managers why we were so lucky in being successful? Each of them gave good reasons. Most businesses succeed, however, because they are well managed and not because they are lucky. Lucky wins lotteries.

The four principles of management are POAC: Plan, Organize, Actuate, and Control. A well thought out plan organized in such a way to keep focus and efficiency when activated will most likely succeed. Metrics are the key to control. When you know precisely what you are measuring you have the basis for getting the results you forecast.

Get the results you want for your organization and become one of the Jim Click Business Preferred Network partners. Working together we can help each other achieve a better Tucson community.

Listen and Learn and Succeed

Many times I find myself too eager to tell my story when I should be listening to hear your story. I think if I don't hurry and tell my message I will miss the opportunity. Sometimes, it's impossible to get your story told due to limited time constraints or it's not the appropriate time. We forget that there will be other opportunities and if we keep building on the relationship the perfect time will come for us to be heard.

This holds true for conversations in business and family. And, thanks to social-media, we have unlimited sources for communicating. I realize there is much pressure to get a sale made, get a point across, or defend yourself. Next time you're in that situation, think longer term and listen to learn how you can succeed with this person or group.

Listen to me and become active in our Jim Click Business Preferred Network and you will have many others listening to you.
