I just created my own YouTube channel doing product videos with future ones planned mostly focussed on MS365. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OotckdOtEg ... and I am working Linkedin a lot more in different ways. Most of the people I know say they have never gotten a lead from Linkedin. They think of this site as a static business card talking about who they are and not what they can do for the customer. They never post to Linkedin. Like most things, Linkedin requires almost daily work to...

SSG that's an awesome video! You can send links to clients, and direct them to your channel. It's a virtual demo that keeps on giving. Kudos I have some of the same issues with getting appointments through Linkedin, however I know of several peeps that use Linkedin as their only source for prospecting and they are doing well. I will keep working it since I have a Navigator account now

This is the first night since I started writing this blog series that I wasn't sure what I was going to write about. After 43 days of writing how much more can you cover or how much more content can you provide for other peeps with help they might need. Tonight I'd like to cover a few things I've been doing everyday other than taking the occasional break and lunch. Many weeks ago I learned that I can't work with the TV on in my office. It's too distracting especially when I have the news on...

Only 5 more days for four full months of selling days that I've been working remote. You may have noticed that I've been skipping a couple of days here and there with blogging on this series. I had no idea that Covid19 would last in to the summer and usually my summers mean less posting of blogs and more time spent enjoying the great weather. Just a short recap for Friday. I was able to secure two orders for two net new companies. However the revenue fell short of what I was hoping for. With...

Always motivating to read your posts Art and to appreciate the grind. We're all in it together, the way things look now, for a while longer yet. 200 miles is a good bit of distance for two appointments, I bet you're wishing you had some time or it was socially acceptable for some cold/warm calls in between! Don't let the blog rule you, enjoy the weather and what helps keep you calm! Have a great rest of your week!

COVID19 "Remote Working" Day Ninety-One of Sales What a way to end the month! I pulled a zero today and I'm pretty bummed because nothing came through. I had three good shots at having a banner month, two of the opportunities kicked the can down the road and the other opportunity who told me it's a go was no where to be found. Another account that I've been dogging for more than 5 years. When I spoke to Tim later in the day I stated that in most cases buyers don't buy on our time lines, they...

COVID19 "Remote Working" Day Ninety-Three of Sales It's just about 10PM in New Jersey, and the temperature is still about 90 degrees. The last few days have been hot, humid and terrible to be outside unless you're planning a visit to the beach. COVID19 in New Jersey? Not much has changed since I gave my last update. We're in some type of holding pattern from the onset of Phase 2. The curve in New Jersey has been crushed for months now, the line is flat and yet our Governor keeps his foot on...

I had one appointment today and that appointment was more of a holding hands session with their new copier. I didn't mind because I put the top down on the hardtop and worked on my tan for about 90 minutes with the drive back and forth from the home office. Every time I drive to this client I take the same route. That route takes me past the Garden State Parkway and Route 520 exit. The parkway is a major artery that leads to North Jersey and that's where many of the jobs are. At this...

US GDP dropped 32.9% in the last three months, the worst in US history. Until the US Gov't effects a coherent national COVID-19 strategy, economic activity will not improve and those parking lots will not fill up anytime soon.

COVID19 "Remote Working" Day Ninety-Eight of Selling Copiers One of my goals for Friday was to make sure that I reached my goal of contacting twenty-five businesses. The plan was to get them all done in the morning since I had I thought my afternoon would be spent with one appointment and the writing of the large net new order for $58K. Just about Noon I received an email from my VP about that potential order. I responded with "I'm being patient", he responded with "don't be patient after...

WooHoo! One more day we'll be at the seven month mark for working remote or least I will be. Am I happy? Not really because going we're now into the last two months of the fiscal year. In previous years you could do the research on your clients and pick those that you wanted to pay a visit to. In most cases these were the clients that you have the best relationships with. With most businesses not being in the office or sparsely populated in New Jersey that may not work this year. I guess the...

COVID19 Remote Working Day One Hundred and Sixty-Three of Selling Copiers It's been four business day since my last blog. I've been busy but took the time off last night to watch/listen to the returns from the election. Can 2020 get any crazier? At this point I don't care who wins and I hope if it's the other guy that he does n't make things worse. I guess from a conservative point of view I'm happy that the Senate is still intact. I've been able to secure two orders in the last four days,...

COVID19 Remote Working Day One Hundred and Ninety-Two of Selling Copiers Last night one hell of a night. I could barely sleep with the sheets of ice that were bouncing off our slider window in the bedroom last night. What was suppose to be a snow event was more of an ice event with wind gusts hitting 55 miles per hour. We didn't lose power thus a traditional work snow day was just another work day because of our remote technology. I'm also grateful that I'm able to write this blog tonight.

Well......, nothing today. I wasn't able to connect with any one of the five opportunities today. All I can say is thank goodness there are still two days left! I'm sure some are probably trying to avoid me like the plague at this time, however that's not going to stop me from going my job tomorrow and day after tomorrow. I was able to get some prep work for some of the accounts that may have a chance of moving forward in January. There was no sense if making a ton of calls or emails since...

COVID19 Remote Working Day One Hundred and Ninety-Six of Selling Where do I start since I've come to the end of my selling days for 2021? Do I start with the fact that I was down the last day of the year this morning and knew that anything can happen to screw things up? The year is finally over, it was the year that started when I got back from vacation this time of year. My end of year vacation is a stay at home vacation and it allows me to get some things done at home and just relax. I was...

My day started kinda slow with our weekly virtual sales meeting with the team. After that it was time to make the rounds with calls and emails to move some opportunities closer to the finish line. In the end I was able to get one opportunity closer to the ordering process and the rest of the calls and emails seems to have fallen on deaf ears today. Yes with five selling days left the thought of pulling a zero is weighing on me. My afternoon was supposed to be dedicated to calls and emails...
