Doing what?

If someone is approaching you with a possible way to make your business more money, save you time so you can make more money or with an opportunity to grow your business, take the time to listen.  Your excuse making could cost you revenue growth.

“I’ve learned … that opportunities are never lost; someone will take the ones you miss.”   -Andy Rooney

Do you have a habit of saying, “I’m too busy” or hear it from your prospects?  Tell me about your experience.

Tell me what you think?  Do you think conducting a quick sales meeting everyday would increase your sales and revenues?

What do you think, have you seen this as a problem in today’s business society?

Here is how we debrief everything from business meetings, sales presentations to our speaking engagements:

1. Ask yourself, “What worked?”
2. Followed by, “What didn’t work?”
3. And finally, “What did I learn?”

Andy Lowe Crossing the Finish Line, IronMan FL

ATLANTA, Georgia  (November 7, 2011) – On Saturday, November 5, 2011, Andy Lowe crossed his first Ironman finish line exceeding his personal goal with a time of 10:48:19.  Mr. Lowe was one of 2,921 participants and finished in the top 10.5% overall.  He completed the 2.4 mile swim in 1:12:40, the 112 mile bike in 5:21:56 and the 26.2 mile marathon in 3:55:58.

President of Renegade Concepts, a business coach and business advisor, Mr. Lowe lives with his family near Atlanta, GA.  New to endurance sports and triathlons, prior to IronMan, Lowe had competed in only a handful of 5Ks and one Half Marathon before committing to the IronMan one year before race day.  In the wake of the achievement Lowe says, “I believe anyone can be an IronMan, the question is, are they willing to get out of bed every morning to do what it takes?”

When asked why he wanted to do it, he stated, “For my 17 year old son Skyler, I wanted to show him that you can accomplish anything you set your mind on, it just takes commitment, drive and discipline.”

Lowe has been in the business growth and sales training industries for the past seven years and is the founder and President of Renegade Concepts in Atlanta, GA.  He works with business owners and sales teams throughout North America and internationally helping them to increase revenues and increase sales.

You already know your goal…for most business owners; the #1 goal is to increase revenues and sales.  No business grows until sales are made and continuously made.  So, now the question is how to set up accountability for this goal and accomplish it!

1.)  Create an Accountability Plan- Not achieving your goals has to do with a lack of accountability.  What good is a target without a specific plan on how to achieve it?  Don’t waste your time with pondering what the next step is…you know the next step.  The next step is getting real about the metrics and the numbers that drive sales.

2.)  Establish the Metrics- Let’s start by taking a look at the metrics that drive your sales.  What are the three to four things that make the sale for your business?  Is it the number of calls you make?  The number of face to face meetings you have?  The number of events or presentations you conduct?  These are the metrics you will focus on to achieve success in your sales.  Don’t get bogged down into the “to-do” list of your day until these factors have been targeted.  At the end of the day, the week or the quarter, does it really matter if your website looks good, you created a new blog or organized your office?  No.  The #1 driver of your business is sales.  Focus on the metrics that drive your sales first!

3.)  Determine the Numbers- An accountability plan without specific, measurable numbers to target is nothing but a “to-do” list.  Let’s get real about the numbers you need to achieve daily to stay on target for achieving your sales goal.  Start by analyzing how many sales you need.  Now, for you, what happens before the sale?  For many businesses, a proposal must go out…so, how many proposals do you need to put out to achieve the number of sales you know you need?  Continue this process to determine the numbers you need for the rest of your metrics.

4.  Get into Action- Stop finding excuses for why you can’t and just do it!  You have already established the factors that make or break your business and your sales so what in the world are you making excuses for?  Get into action and work your accountability plan with intention and focus every day.

5.  Find an Accountability Partner- For most of us, being accountable only to ourselves, is not enough.  If you know you need help, get it…and I don’t mean a buddy of yours that says, “uh, sure I’ll be your accountability partner”.  We all know that doesn’t work.  When it gets down to it, your friend is not going to hold your feet to the fire and push you.  You need a hard nose accountability partner; one that will make you uncomfortable if you don’t produce your numbers and encourage, motivate, inspire and teach you to forge ahead.  Your sales, your business and your future depend on you being able to set aside your excuses and pride and get help.

In my 20 years of helping companies grow and increase their revenues, I have learned that the #1 reason businesses fail is a lack of sales.

No doubt,  having capital makes things much easier in business and in life, however, the one thing I did not see mentioned is the reality that SALES = INCOME.  If you cannot sell, you cannot make money.  Simply having cash does not make for a success in business.  The skill of being able to sell again and again and again is the key.

We have found at Renegade Concepts that many business owners and sales professionals simply “open their doors” with a “build it and they will come” mentality and the reality is building a successful business takes work, skill and most of all:  SALES

In my business and triathlon life, I am surrounded by “big thinkers” and a team of business partners that “play a big game”.  Who are the six people you spend the most time with?  Do they empower you?  Do they inspire?  Will they push you to greatness?  Or…do they listen to you complain and give excuses?  Do they enable mediocrity?

Blair Singer, the author of Little Voice Mastery says this:

“Everyone of us has the capability of playing and winning a big game.  Not everyone will.  Little voices will determine the outcome.  Other people’s advice, worries, jealousy, resentment, and even their neuroses will stand in your way if you let them.”

Who are the six voices you allow to influence you?  Are they the voices of champions or do they quit when things get tough?  Do they justify and deny reality or do they take responsibility for their actions?  Do those six voices you surround yourself with push you further down the path toward becoming the best you can be?
