Does lightning strike
twice? |

We launched our last briefing coincidentally
when the major power outage hit the North Eastern U.S. and Ontario, Canada.
Just in case you missed our articles, and hoping that lightning doesn't
strike twice to stop our publication, we are including the links in this
briefing for your convenience: The Sales Productivity Challenge Brain Surgery, Anyone? ATQ (from Sales Wise) |

What’s Going On? Martyn
Lewis |
|
| They say that the
world divides into those who, when they hear a strange sound from under the
hood of the car, turn the radio down and those who turn the radio up. Which
of these two, obviously diverse, reactions is right? You certainly shouldn’t
react to every little rattle, but there is a price to be paid if a small
rattle turns into a bigger problem and cost.
When your sales results "rattle" do you react to the symptoms - or do you turn down the volume and take the time to understand what’s really going on so that you can effectively address the root causes? It can be very costly when the car abruptly
screeches to a halt - or when sales fail to reach expected targets at
quarter end! |
