There's always more people out there to find.    It's tempting to do what is comfortable and continue to only call on your consistent clients that you have built relationship with. Cold calling can be uncomfortable at times. But the uncomfortable is often what leads to the most growth.    Chase the uncomfortable. Chase the leads. Get out there and cold call! https://lnkd.in/g3Ng4v-i #coldcalling #sales

Happy Anniversary to Mahva Moradian and Carla Thomas!

Ever wonder how the people ahead of you know so much?    They were never afraid to ask questions. People who are afraid to ask questions because they don't want to look like they don't understand end up becoming the people who don't understand.    The only way to grow is to ask questions early and often. Surprisingly, this sort of open dialogue often builds rapport and trust with clients.  https://lnkd.in/g3Ng4v-i #growth #clientrelationships

There's plenty to be afraid of around AI these days.   One thing that is hardly talked about is gambling. The gambling apps are getting better and better at attracting people to use their apps. AI is going to increase that pull.    This is something significant for the workplace because now employees carry a device that can connect them to an addictive service 24/7. https://lnkd.in/gVPzq2iT #AI #technology #gambling

You can have a tool set with every possible size wrench or you can just have a crescent wrench.    In today's workplace it pays to be a crescent wrench. The modern world needs adaptable, flexible, and capable workers more than it needs workers who are an expert in one area. https://lnkd.in/gVPzq2iT #flexibility #workforce

In our post-covid world many teams are now distributed across the country.    This has been a good thing in many ways, but it has presented challenges as well. One of the biggest challenge is the impact it has had on personal connections within our teams. Julie Fitzgerald has put an emphasis on finding opportunities to foster these connections with her team. Escape rooms are a great way to do it.    https://lnkd.in/gT5GfFVi #remotework #teambuilding

Happy Anniversary Bill Gadberry, CPSC, Tonya Callaway, CPA, and Jeff Kimmel!

It takes more than Good Work to grow in your career.    Good work is the baseline. Everyone should be doing good work. That's what is expected. So if you want to move up you can't forget to make sure people see your good work. https://lnkd.in/gT5GfFVi   #growth #goodwork

Local relationships still matter.    In today's world it's tempting to believe that you can exist 100% online. But the reality is local relationships still win. Much of what we do can now be done online. But not all of it.    Get out there and be local. https://lnkd.in/gmtki8vf  #networking #businessgrowth
