The Optimistic Sales Professional
Sales is a demanding profession. Top performers know that to sustain a high level of performance, they need to keep fit and well - both physically and psychologically. An increasing body of research is showing that keeping an optimistic outlook, and having the physical energy to meet the demands of working in sales are critical to a sales person's effectiveness, success and overall well-being. Something many of us know intuitively, however it good to have it validated. Managing and overcoming setbacks is key to succeeding in anything. In sales we are tested everyday. Without a sense of optimism it would make getting up to face each day that much harder. So what is Optimism?

RAISING VENTURE CAPITAL IN TOUGH TIMES
It’s no secret that it’s not as easy as it used to be to raise money for your business. Longer investment cycles, suppressed valuations, and limited opportunities to cash out of deals has made venture capitalists increasingly selective. As a result, many VCs look only at companies they know and have invested in before, rather than pursuing new deals.

Cycle City declares bankruptcy
A lot of bargain hunters were picking up deals. I noticed one of the owners behind the parts counter dispensing friendly advice to a customer. At least he didn't seem bitter about his failed business venture. While browsing about the store I heard at least one person comment on the bankruptcy that “it was a sign of the times.” I couldn't help but wonder what this bankruptcy might be really a sign of.

The Sales Force with Over Achievers Who Don't
I think that many CEO's are in denial. Despite the struggles of their sales force, they continue to look at the pipeline and say to themselves, we'll be okay as soon as these deals close. But the deals aren't closing and with each passing day companies are less okay then they were the day before.

When to say no to a deal. If you want grow say no!
Wait, before you say, "I did this really small job and it lead to a bigger one, so I never turn down a deal." If you want to think that way, it's OK, but if you want to get to the next level, you need to think differently. I have a very successful client in Hollywood that I work with, he hired me to help him make the jump to the elite level of 8 figure deals. I told him the same thing I'm telling you, say, "No to 80%." He was so challenged by this until I explained to him that the deals he was getting now were the ones turned down by the elite level 8 figure guys. If you want 8 figure deals you have think like an 8 figure guy and NOT take 6 figure deals.

NOT BUSINESS AS USUAL
Many salespeople are reporting that it is taking them twice as long to close a sale. They also agree that there are fewer deals and, therefore, the need for them to close the deals that are in the pipeline is more acute.

But what else can you do to increase your chances that you, not your competitor, get the business that is out there?

Joke or No Joke
I was having an online conversation in a class I am teaching about teams at work. The discussion was relative to having online messages misinterpreted. Clearly we have all experienced this uncomfortable situation more than once. I got so fascinated about this topic that I wrote a book on it a few years ago. One student brought up a situation that is common in person as well as online, but the damage done online is usually much larger. This is when a person tries to rib another person with a joke, but the meaning on the part of the receiver is taken literally. The writer is astonished when the reader takes umbrage at the barb. The writer says, “but I was only joking.” This article deals with this common situation
