Lesson #3: Believe In Yourself
“The show’s not dead as long as I believe in it,” Kermit The Frog says in The Muppets Take Manhattan. “The frog is stayin’.” Much like his beloved signature Muppet, Henson’s determination and faith in his abilities were two of the driving factors behind his successful career.

Mobile TV\'s Messed-Up Marketing
For reasons unbeknownst to me (okay, almost certainly hoping I'd say nice things about their phone and service), Sprint bestowed on me a freebie phone some time back, as well as a full-service package of voice, video, and data. I've cheerfully taken advantage of having a second mobile phone -- it comes in useful when in the car on long conference calls and needing to order take-out pizza -- but I have to confess that one aspect of it has surprised me.

How to Find More Sales Opportuntities without Cold Calling
The two biggest problems for most companies right now, in this economy, are delayed closings and not enough new opportunities. I've tackled delayed closings, so today, with a little help from my friends, I'll tackle not enough new opportunities. I mentioned in my last post that (most of) you need three times more opportunities than ever before to make up for the late stage opportunities that aren't closing right now.
Inventory Targeting/Modifications
You can modify your inventory offerings without altering the flavor of your store to better serve your customers in a recession.
Finding The Clients When You Need Them
If you are in a situation where you need to get new clients, you may find that you are feeling stressed out about how your business is going. Whether you are new to the business or you have been working for a while, you should relax!
Party Networking or “Are You George?”
I love advertising my business through networking with other upbeat business people. There are many networking groups in every city—trade organizations, Chambers of Commerce, Rotary Clubs, national associations, etc. But you don’t have to restrict yourself to business organizations..
The Most Important Customer
Customer service is false propaganda.

My family thinks I want a jet
When I was at Starwood, I shared a corporate jet with a group of folks. And when I worked for Mike Milken, I traveled a lot with him on his jet. I always enjoyed it as a nice perk, but I couldn’t help but think how silly some people were to say things like “I need my jet.”

Why a Sales Manager MUST Evoke "The Law of Reciprocity"
For our purposes, the Law of Reciprocity states: If you do something nice for someone, human nature dictates that the recipient will feel compelled to do something nice for you in return. It is in essence: "you reap what you sow". This is an irrefutable law and one that you should teach your salespeople.

Can Simply Being Nice Save You Money?
It occurred to me (at the tax office of all places) that simply being nice to others really does save us money. This morning while paying taxes, I was pleasant and took the time to be nice and two ladies really did everything in their power to save me some money. As I then drove to my office, I pondered the application of "simply being nice" to a more general business application. Can we as leaders role model being nice and teach our employees to be the same way? Can being nice impact our bottom line? Do we sometimes neglect the very people that mean success or failure in the game of business?
