Prospecting, Follow-up and Solving "Around" the Problem
Do you solve problems by “solving around the problem?” This is what I mean. Manager “Ken” is frustrated because his sales force isnʼt prospecting because they are relying on the companyʼs expensive advertising budget to drive the traffic. Even though personal prospecting is the least expensive form of advertising and has the highest success rate in closing customers. Because the sales force hasnʼt been trained or managed properly they are “rewarded” by manager “Ken” who increases his ad budget. Kenʼs defense is that he canʼt get his salesmen to prospect. A classic case of the tail wagging the dog.

I answer my own phone. I always have. If I’m sitting at my desk working on something and my phone rings I’ll usually pick it up, even if I don’t recognize the phone number. I know this doesn’t fit the “be hyper-productive” method of life, but I like the randomness of it.

The Phone Tools & Tips Used by the Top Income Earners
Everyone uses the phone, but few use it effectively or even think it's important to learn. The first few seconds of any phone call are crucial. The moment you say "Hello," the listener on the other end of the phone forms a subconscious opinion. When you talk with your prospect face-to-face, he base's his opinion about you on such factors as facial expression, body language, hand motions and voice. On the phone, he can only rely on his ears.

Using An Auto Attendant To Make Your Small Business Look Bigger
One of the most common features of any large, modern corporation is the presence of an auto attendant to handle incoming calls. Not only does this system help to prevent a caller from receiving a busy signal when they contact the business, but it can also help efficiently transfer calls to the right department of the company. Many small businesses think that such a professional phone system is out of their budget. But thanks to advances in telecommunications, that is no longer the case.

Don’t Blame Mental Pause
Lately I catch myself in mid-action, trying to remember what the heck I was doing. Or trying to remember what I was going to do next, where I was going when I started up my web browser. To add insult to injury, the other night I cut my finger reaching for my phone on my kitchen counter. I'd just turned the lights off but I knew the phone was there. I simply forgot that I’d placed the knife next to the phone. I hurriedly reached for the phone, and sliced myself pretty good.
How to Click with People on the Phone
Telephone. Tell a phone. There are times when I get the feeling I’m talking to a phone instead of over the phone. Incoming telemarketing calls don’t allow for meaningful connections.
