Productivity and Attitude
I'm the only one who does anything around here! Several years ago I was on a late-night television show in New York City. For some strange reason, they wanted me in the studio that afternoon at 4:30. I walked in and was stunned by the small size of the reception area. It contained a couch for three, a chair for one and a sink, refrigerator and coffee maker.

The Secret to Finding the Three People Who Will Change Your Life
That’s the crux of the Who’s Got Your Back message, the vital need for a handful of deep, trusting relationships with people mutually invested in your success. Now: How to find them?
Create A Healthier Work Environment and A Unique Customer Experience
Statistics on bigger companies indicate that the savings can be almost $5 for every dollar spent on making workers healthier. And while larger businesses can afford more formalized health and wellness programs in the workplace, even smaller companies are can get in on the act.Whether you are an employer or manager of a hundreds of employees or just a few there are plenty of low cost and time effective ideas that can improve the health, morale and productivity within your business but this would have to be my favourite way of creating a healthier work environment. What started out as a way to create a healthier work environment eventually became a unique selling point in our business...

Customer Service: Where Everyone Knows Your Name
Customers don’t interact with organizations. They interact with people and it is that experience that determines whether they buy or not; whether they become loyal customers or a lost opportunity. When your employees are engaged with your organization, when they believe in and enjoy what they are doing, then those positive feelings extend to the customer. Happy employees make happy customers and this translates into increased sales and profits. The attitude and feelings of your employees directly influences the customer experience.

THE VALUE OF A PERSONAL MISSION STATEMENT
I am sure that all of you who work in a corporate environment are familiar with your corporate mission statement? It is the one that typically hangs in the front reception area or perhaps on the wall in the boardroom. But do you have a personal mission statement and/or understand in a meaningful way what your purpose for living actually is?

The Exploratory Meeting
The Exploratory Meeting is a key element in the sales process. Typically the meeting will have been arranged after qualification over the telephone, and a decision made by both parties that it would be mutually beneficial to meet. It is the exploratory meeting that will allow the professional sales person to set the ground rules and get a ‘feel’ for the customer and their needs.

Find marketing partners
A marketing partner is another business which can complement your business or help to refer new customers your way in exchange for reciprocal referrals. A good example of this is if you leave some of your leaflets in the sales area of a fellow business, preferable in the same town or area as your business and in exchange you have their leaflets in your reception area. To take this concept a little further you could introduce promotional schemes; for example...you could put on your sales literature "When you buy a pizza you get 20% discount off of XYZ video store". At the same time as you offering this you can get XYZ video store to offer a similar promotion so that when a customer rents a video they will get 20% off pizzas at ABC pizza store.

Special Issues for an Area Developer
If you desire to own and operate more than one franchise outlet, you may want to consider becoming an area developer. An area developer is really a multi-outlet franchisee that commits at the beginning of the relationship with the franchisor to open a number of outlets within a given area (“Development Area”) over a specific period of time (“Development Schedule). This is different from the multi-outlet franchisee that may have first purchased one outlet and later purchases another outlet, etc., without ever being contractually bound to open further outlets. there are issues and terms unique to an area developer that must be addressed to make the relationship between the franchisor and the developer more equitable by having a fairer area development agreement.
Special Issues for an Area Representative
An area representative is best described as a "super" franchise broker and servicing agent for the franchisor. You will be disclosed in ITEMS 2, 3 and 4 of the franchisor's Franchise Disclosure Document with your 5-year biography and litigation and bankruptcy history if you will have management responsibility relating to the sale or operation of franchises. An area representative differs from a subfranchisor in that the area representative uses the franchisor's Franchise Disclosure Document and the franchise agreement is signed directly between the franchisor and the franchisee. The area representative is not a party to the franchise agreement. Under the area representative agreement between the franchisor and the area representative, the franchisor delegates to the area representative certain of the servicing and support obligations
How to Use Layering Questions
Only the top sales reps use layering questions, and the reason they are so valuable is because they get your prospect to go a little deeper into an area of interest they have, or in an area of concern.

The Danger of Knowing
The problem with being an expert is that in some cases you don't know what you don't know. You get so good at one area that you assume you can apply what you know to another similar area. Uh oh.
What Does Pizza Teach You About Setting up Your Business for Success?
It is my assumption, that where ever you live, you are able to either purchase pizza or prepare your own pizza. In the area known as The New York Metro Area and the area around Boston, people are very loyal to where the ‘best’ pizza is to be found.
