Corporate Jet Investor’s Post

Opportunities are where you aren’t looking. I was ticked off that this delta plane had no WiFi, no tv, and I didn’t prepare by bringing a book. Also, couldn’t sleep since it was 330 and I had a ton of caffeine. So instead of sitting in silence for 2 hours I started a conversation with the gentlemen next to me. He was flying to North Carolina to a job site. He sells material for big projects. He just needed 45 FTL for the job he was flying out to. Some of it is crane loading no miss stuff. We ended up talking most of the flight about golf, life, logistics, sales, technology, etc. As we are about to land he hands me his business card and said we are always looking for good brokers. Didn’t even ask. Now I can’t move freight obviously for another 10 months, ( maybe longer as I am enjoying recruiting). But it’s still good making connections, and the flight flew by. Makes me think technology is ruining a lot of in person connection, I’ll fully admit it the WiFi was working, or they had a tv I never would have initiated the conversations. #sales #logistics #trucking #networking

The Albatross and Corporate Sales/Business Development: A Parallel Journey In the vast expanse of the business world, certain individuals stand out like the majestic albatross among birds. Just as the albatross is distinct in its strength and ability to soar, corporate sales and business development professionals exhibit a similar resilience and prowess in their domain. The albatross, with its energy and skill, undertakes long journeys across oceans, tirelessly pursuing its targeted destinations. Similarly, those in corporate sales and business development navigate the complex landscapes of the corporate world, carrying the weight of responsibilities on their shoulders. Their journey is marked by continuous effort, practice, and evolution, akin to the albatross's inherited nature. Much like the albatross, these professionals fly high, relentlessly pursuing business goals without pause. They understand the importance of continuous success hunts to fuel their appetite for growth and sharpen their skills. Despite the challenges and loneliness that accompany their ascent, they remain focused on their chosen destination. The parallel between these professionals and the albatross lies in their innate drive and determination. They are born for the heights they achieve, relentlessly pursuing success without competing for altitude. While the journey may be fraught with challenges and risks, they understand that staying grounded is not an option. In conclusion, corporate sales and business development professionals are akin to the albatross—destined for greatness, driven by purpose, and relentless in their pursuit of success. Like the albatross, they don't have a choice; it's simply who they are meant to be. #CorporateSales #BusinessDevelopment #SuccessJourney #AlbatrossMetaphor #BusinessAnalogies

Does the "Rule of 7" Work in Travel Sales? How many times do you really need to connect before making a sale? The "Rule of 7" says you need to connect with a prospect 7 times before they take action. As the CEO of Nevis Sun Tours Inc., I’ve seen firsthand how vital it is to stay top-of-mind in a crowded market. For us, that means creating meaningful, memorable touchpoints with clients and prospects. Have you found this to be true in your business? I'd love to hear your thoughts! #TravelSales #DMC #BusinessGrowth #NevisSunTours

since I started aviation sales , everything in my life changed , events way we communicate with people and the way we search . in real estate ,selling was based on quality and convincing skills. while in aviation you need a lot of skills to have a deal (searching, talking,negociating,finding the best of the best,...etc).

Are you taking the sales road less traveled? Robert Frost once said, “Two roads diverged in a wood and I–I took the one less traveled by.” The choice of the “road less traveled” signifies a preference for nonconformity and uniqueness. Choosing the less conventional path can lead to personal growth and fulfillment. Now, let's apply this quote to sales. If you enter the crowded areas, like all the other salespeople, you get into a rat race and remain like any other ordinary individual, a sales rep. Why not choose the areas that have the least competition and move in that direction to stand out? The idea of taking the road less traveled serves as a powerful metaphor for embracing individuality and the courage to forge one’s own path. This is what sales professionals do, they forge their own path. They carve out their own niche, their own. #sellingfromtheheart #sellinginaposttrustworld

Being a real estate agent is a dynamic and multifaceted career that presents both unique challenges and significant opportunities. On the challenge front, agents often face the pressures of market fluctuations, intense competition, and the need to continuously stay updated with local and national regulations. Navigating client expectations and managing a fluctuating income can also test your resilience and adaptability. However, these challenges come with substantial opportunities. The ability to help clients find their dream homes or make sound investments is deeply rewarding. The potential for high earnings, especially in thriving markets, and the flexibility of setting your own schedule can be very appealing. Moreover, the industry is ripe for innovation, offering avenues to leverage technology, enhance client experiences, and expand your professional network. As the real estate market continues to evolve, those who are proactive and adaptable will thrive. If you're an ambitious sales agent in QLD, NSW or VIC, looking for a fresh opportunity, now is the perfect time to explore new horizons and elevate your career. "Success is not the key to happiness.

Sailing and selling both require a shared language. This hit me while sailing with Captain Gus this week. When he urgently said, "ease the peak," the crew knew exactly what to do. The same applies to sales teams. In the '90s, I first read “Strategic Selling” and learned about the Ideal Client Profile (ICP). Now, the term is ubiquitous in sales. When someone says, "this opportunity does not meet our ICP," everyone understands the implications. The strategy shifts, the deal's feasibility is reassessed, and often, time invested in that opportunity is reduced or stopped. A common language in sales ensures an efficient and effective team. You might even find yourself sailing through your deals.
