Rejection…Not Once, But Twice!
If you are the owner of your own business, or have a sales role within your company, then surely you have dealt with rejection. As Former VP of Franchise Development for Sylvan Learning Systems, Inc, I’ve had plenty of experience myself. But this spring I was dealt the dirty ‘R” word not once….but again!

The Evolutionary Language of Business Coaching
Following 16 successful years as a sales executive in Corporate America, I transitioned into a new role as a Life and Business Coach. At the end of my second year of training, I realized I had learned a whole new way to communicate and relate with other people.

Inspiring Innovation & Creativity through Business Systems
Ok, I admit: "I am a big fan of systems, Its all about Systems". It could just be the Mechanical Engineer and Business Analyst coming out in me, but it goes much deeper than that. It is definitely grounded in my recent experiences with systems. We are surrounded by systems, and our lives revolve around them and rely on them working infallibly. The cars (or motorbikes) we drive, the computers we use and the human bodies we live in, are all brilliantly refined and intricate systems that we use everyday. We expect them to work predictably and consistently every time we use them.

Going back to basics
Going back to basics and having focus on what made you successful in the start of your career (learning, learning, and learning) becomes vital in selling in 21st century. In fact, one of the rewards of a successful sales career is the stimulating learning process - it’s never dull unless that’s how you make it.

Be A Student
The wonderful thing I am learning about “learning”, and I am hearing it from many different locations all at once, is simply this; When you truly enter into an attitude of learning, rather than one of thinking that you know it all, and you give yourself permission to be open to other people’s ideas and suggestions, the frequency of learning opportunities becomes infinite, and your potential of greater success becomes assured.
Network Marketing Is A Business Of Systems Not A Love Story
At the mere mention of a system, our eyes glaze over and we start to bang our heads against the wall screaming “I hate systems”. But without systems our lives would be in chaos. No “red lights” think of the intersection crashes; no systems for your network marketing business has failure written all over it.

The Systems View
Systems are all around us. We can view most common occurrences with a "systems" perspective. Here is a cute story to illustrate how systems operate.

Market your Business like the Pros Do
Anyone can start an online business. But not everyone knows how to market their business. That is usually why 3 people will succeed with their business and 97 will fail. Learning and practicing the best marketing systems is a big reason why the pros are successful.

Online Training - Does it Work for Smaller Businesses?
Large corporations can afford to send employees to expensive external training courses or to bring trainers in-house for workshops, seminars and other educational programs. But how can small businesses make sure that their employees have similar opportunities to learn and develop their skills? The answer – more small businesses are turning to online learning for high quality learning for much less money. The primary benefit of online learning for small business is cost savings. Let’s say you wanted to become a Microsoft-certified systems engineer, which requires a multi-day course. That would run about $2,000 per person. But online, you could get the same instruction for under $200 per person. When you factor in the cost of airfare, hotel, and other incidental costs, the savings can be even more dramatic.
Systems, Flexibility, and Spontaneity
Women entrepreneurs often under estimate the power of having systems. There is often the misconception that systems are complicated and time-consuming. This article gives some simple tips for creating systems and why they are useful.
Stop Reinventing the Wheel: Create Systems to Save Time and Money
Most of us run our lives on a handful of systems. Between our smart phones, calendars, and our e-mail inboxes, we have organized ourselves and our time. And if you ever doubt the importance of these systems, recall your panic the last time you couldn’t access your email or your hard drive crashed. Yet as important as these systems are, most of us don’t take advantage of what systems can do to improve our businesses and simplify our lives. Systems are simply ways of automating or structuring processes so that they can occur systematically without so much thought or attention-and by more than just one person, so that the business can continue to run if the owner takes a vacation.
