Being Well Informed
I remember hearing someone say “I am not an intellectual, but I’m well informed” when they were talking about their interests, and I thought that statement was well put. People are surprised when they discover the variety of subjects I am interested in, but that comes with paying attention to newspapers, magazines, television coverage and the Internet. If you stop to consider how much information is given out on a daily basis, there’s very little reason not to be well informed.

Sales Training that Really Works
Research and practical experience reveals that many of the widely used sales training approaches and techniques are largely ineffective with a relatively small proportion of the learnings being retained after the training event. Salespeople have relatively little brain space allocated for theory and respond best to highly interactive, participative and engaging simulations that mimic the reality that they will face in the field. Such simulations are feedback rich and play on salespeople's competitive instincts as they compete with one another in the simulations.

Just How Important is the UFOC? I started playing golf about 10 years ago and over time have come to love the game.

Hit More Fairways and Close More Sales
Eric Dunn, my guest on this week's Meet the Sales Experts Radio Show, stressed the importance of positive self talk, affirmations, and transformation as keys to sales success.

What is Your "Pre-Call" Routine?
Wrap your head around these six steps to a better result on the golf course and in the marketplace! The steps that you take mentally before you take the shot in sales or in golf will often play a considerable role in the result of that shot. What are you thinking? Many of you know that I am a bit of a golf nut. In fact, I am in the middle of writing a book on the 18 analogies between the profession of sales and playing golf. Recently, I read an article in GOLF magazine written by PGA Tour pro, Hunter Mahan in which he described how he “pressure-proofed” his game to make him more mentally fit for competition at the highest level. By turning to sports psychologist, Neale Smith, he developed a step-by-step “pre-shot routine” that I found to be very applicable to the preparation necessary before a sales call.
