5/15/2024-Put your Q3 goals to bed

Get your manager engaged in your goal-setting protocol and you’ll have a higher likelihood of learning about your misses and growing your skills.

At the halfway mark in Q2, think forward…and backward. Put your Q3 goals to bed and review your Q2 goal progress.

The up-and-to-the-right growth you’re looking for comes from continual goal management: set goals, work goals, measure progress, edit goals, learn, rinse, repeat.

What you learn from your Q2 goal progress will help you finish your Q3 goals.

Won’t it feel great setting really aggressive Q3 goals today?

If you’re killing your Q2 goals, congrats, you’ve earned the confidence to hit the gas next quarter.

But if you’re dragging in Q2, STILL set some big ones for Q3. (See how that works?)

You can always edit your Q3 goals on June 30, but today, set some big and audacious skill and specific account goals for the next quarter.

Many sellers don’t regularly follow a goal protocol for no other reason than their manager doesn’t actively provide guidance and assistance.

But that’s not an excuse you will accept. That puts the blame on the manager, and that’s not fair.

You, a striving member of the TOP 10%, must create a regular goal routine because it’s the only way to achieve strong and consistent results.

It might be that your manager doesn’t know how to manage a goal protocol, and if that’s the case, you both should learn together. It’s not that hard: start by writing ’em down. Only by working together will you overcome the phobia that your manager harshly judges your progress.

Sure, you’re gonna miss some goals…it happens. But when your manager is engaged with you, you both will learn and get better at it.

Wanna be inspired to set some aggressive goals in Q3? Watch this YT Short of the most aggressive sport you could ever play.

WARNING: the game looks absolutely ridiculous. …is it even a game? …how do you win?

The freaks who play it are probably top performers at whatever they do. They’re aggressive!
