Exciting new beginnings!🐶🐾 I welcomed in 2024 with a new member of the family, which now makes me a dog mum of two gorgeous cockapoos... meet Snoopy!🐶❣ Embarking on this new adventure with Snoopy has not just added extra happiness over the last 12 days, but reinstalled a few valuable life lessons, responsibility, patience and adaptability. As Snoops now explores life with us and our other cockapoo Muffy, I can't help but draw parallels between the skills needed for successful puppy pawrenting and excelling in the world of sales... 🐾 Relationships: Just like in sales, establishing a strong relationship with Snoopy requires trust, empathy and effective communication. 🐾 Adaptability: Every day with a puppy is filled with surprises and challenges. Adapting to change and staying agile is key in both pet pawrenting and the world of sales. 🐾 Persistence: Training a puppy takes time, consistency, and persistence. Similarly in sales, dedication to your goals and perseverance can only lead to success. My new chapter with Snoopy has inspired fresh perspectives on business ventures, so if you're curious in ways to elevate your recruitment processes, improve DEI initiatives, explore innovative solutions, or just want to share your experiences in the world of talent acquisition (or pet pawrenting tips!) I'm all ears (and paws)!🐾🐶

In the world of business, it's easy to get tempted by a shiny new client opportunity - even if it means bending our rules a bit. But let's be real, not every shiny thing is gold, and opportunities just aren't worth ditching our core values for. Just the other day, a colleague of mine was chatting with a potential client who wanted us to jump through hoops with some pretty one-sided terms for hiring a specialist role. Over here at GURLER MAE, we're all about partnerships. We're not just another agency on a list; we're here to grow with our clients. That means keeping things straightforward and fair, which is super important for our boutique vibe and keeping our cash flow healthy so we can give our clients our best. This whole chat was a solid reminder that it's not about grabbing every opportunity out there - it's about finding the right ones that really get what we're about and value what we bring to the table. In the end, we decided to pass on this one. Sometimes saying no is just as powerful as saying yes. Do you stick to your guns when it comes to business values, or have you ever been tempted to compromise? #GurlerMae #ConstructionIndustry #People

Our 6th "hunt" is a deep dive into the world of selling credit cards w/ potential to earn $1M/year! Jay Green interviewed someone who is thriving in his role for the past 2 years. Here's what he loves most about his job: 1. Incredibly flexible work environment. On average, he talks to his boss 2x per month and is 100% in control of his day and week 📅 2. Very fair compensation - if he puts in the work, he can strike gold 💰 3. It’s a big company that offers solid benefits 😀 4. Everyone knows their brand so booking meetings is easy (10% dial:meeting) ✔ Wanna get under the hood and learn specifics about his role and day-in-the-life?

"Today is my first day on the job. They don't tell us anything. They just put us out here."   So said the door-to-door salesperson after only 45 seconds of conversation and two basic questions. Sweating in the afternoon Florida sun, walking, knocking, pleading, trying to find residents, any resident, willing to listen, let alone sign up.   Two months ago, the corporate brand, with its heavy machinery and sprawling crews, had swept through the neighborhood installing buried fiber optic lines. Then all was quiet for about eight weeks. Suddenly every day now brings a door knock, twice a day on the weekend. There are several observations to me made. I choose to consider the plight of the frontliner and the wonderfully universal statement, "Today is my first day on the job. They don't tell us anything. They just put us out here." No prep, no marketing, no leave behind, no confidence, no purpose.   This example is exactly at the core of the Experience Gap. Do you see it?   #frontline #experiencegap #experiencehandyman

Let’s talk today about what Combined can bring to your future.

🚚 Happy Friday to all my #LinkedIn Contacts 😂 As we wrap up another week of connecting the dots between here and there, it's time to share a few laughs and reflect on our unique world of logistics sales. This Week's Highlights: Trust the Process... and the GPS!: Sometimes our gut leads us to scenic routes, but thankfully the GPS helps us find the warehouse eventually. 🚗 Email Tetris Pros: Sorting through emails is like a game of Tetris; the key is to keep things moving and find that perfect fit. 📧🧩 Coffee: Our Daily Fuel: Behind every successful logistics deal is a team member with a coffee cup in hand. ☕️ The Curious Case of the Vanishing Pens: Our weekly mystery—where do all the pens go? Seriously, I'm considering hiring Sherlock Holmes for this one. 🕵️♂️✒️ Wishing everyone a restful weekend filled with laughter and maybe even a bit of relaxation & G&T. Stay awesome, and keep the wheels turning! 🚛💨 #LogisticsSales #FunnyFriday #Teamwork #KeepMoving Great Bear Distribution Ltd. #3PL #Morethanspacefill

Site visits complete for the day ✅ My favorite times of the week! Not only do I get face to face with property managers, I get to see their environment and show the attention to detail that sets Career Strategies apart from every other staffing agency! Whether there’s a current need or not, often times I get the opportunity to have an in depth conversation with the PM. It doesn’t even have to be about business. Today I heard stories of a superhero dog named Roxy that knew the PM’s significant other’s pacemaker wasn’t working and went to wake up the PM! We talked about our dogs for nearly 20 minutes 😂❤️ That conversation would have never materialized on an everyday marketing call! Cutting out all superficial interaction to ensure candid dialogue and STRONG partnerships. 💪 #propertymanagement #staffing #multifamilyhousing #marketing
