Happy Independence Day

Whether you’re an American or not, today is a good day to celebrate independence…sales independence.

Sellers are independent operators. Sure, you work for a company, but it’s your territory…and your clients. And while you receive a regular paycheck, you are free to make lots of decisions that affect your destiny.

Despite a few company mandates and select protocols, how you approach the nuances and details of selling to your list is pretty much up to you!

Here’s to independence!

Do

Today, reflect and appreciate the power and privilege of your independence as a seller.

If you have a few BFFBs (BFF Buyers), send ’em a quick text today…throw in some exploding fireworks if you’re so moved.

Your customers may think you’re merely acting patriotically, but you’ll know you’re celebrating the freedom you feel and appreciate about your sales career.

Oomph

If you were expecting a link here to a stirring rendition of "Stars and Stripes Forever" (with exploding fireworks)…well…sorry to disappoint you.

Instead, allow Nathan’s hot dog-eating champ, Joey Chestnut, to gross you out with highlights of one of his epic July 4th wins.

Quote of the day

For to be free is not merely to cast off one’s chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.
